Ok
Contains spoilers, click to show
This movie was just "ok" across the board-the acting, cinematography, story. Nothing flashy or anything about it. It played out well enough and kept me interested to the end. True crime fans will enjoy this low budget drama/thriller about a girl who gets caught up in some small town crime by getting lost on a bank country road. It was listed under horror, but there's really nothing "horror" about it. The main character is a pretty smart woman so her survival isn't exactly surprising. If you're looking for a decent movie to keep you occupied on a rainy day this one is worth a watch.

Thunder buddies
When John (Wahlberg) was a little boy, he wish that Ted (MacFarlane), his best friend and teddy bear could talk, which came true.
Thirty years later, F-bomb dropping Ted is still John's best friend, much to the dislike of Lori (Kunis), John's girlfriend.
Though Lori's displeasure is fuelled by the pair's constant consumption of beer and weed, she's not the one who's most disappointed with John; it may take the intervention of a teddy bear to make the boy become a man.
Hilarious story, although the plot is a little weak - this movie does not disappoint, an oddly grounded take on growing up.

A really enjoyable read
Having watched the film of this book, I decided to see how the book differs. Apart from the ending being slightly different, the film version stays true to this book.
All of the characters in the book were flawed, therefore believable. I enjoyed the twists and turns of this book and also the back stories to some of the characters.
I would definitely read this book again, but I will leave some time before doing so, so this story can have the impact that was intended.
I recommend this novel.

Green Book. It breaks my heart that such a book ever had to be printed, as it was a list of safe places for African-Americans to stay and eat at while vacationing. The movie takes us on the true story road trip of Dr. Don Shirley, a world class pianist, who hires a Tony Lip to be his driver and bodyguard while touring in the south in the early 1960's. The movie drives us through the racial tensions of the time which leads to some tense situations, but we also get plenty of laughs watching the making of a life long friendship between Doc and Tony.

William Peter Blatty created an iconic novel that focuses on Regan, the eleven-year-old daughter of a movie actress residing in Washington, D.C. A small group of overwhelmed yet determined individuals must rescue Regan from her unspeakable fate, and the drama that ensues is gripping and unfailingly terrifying.
Been years since I first read this book! Still scared the life out of me. A few times I've done a Joey and put it in the freezer. I keep expecting to find my 6 year old with a spinning head and vomitting green crap. I love the writing it's a true classic horror story.

Great cast (2 more)
Awesome racing scenes
Cool cinematography
If this were a beauty pageant we've just lost
This looked a class act just from the trailer and the full film doesn't disappoint. Based on the true story of how 2 men helped Ford design a Car to challenge the dominance of Ferrari. The chemistry between the Damon and Bale is great. The driving and race scenes look great, giving you the feel as if you are behind the wheel at times. It's a quality and all round well made film. If you liked @Rush (2013) check this out as it has a similar feel to it.
