Cocaine Bear

After a 500-pound black bear consumes a significant amount of cocaine and embarks on a drug-fueled rampage, an eccentric gathering of cops, criminals, tourists, and teenagers assemble in a Georgia forest.

There are really only two words to describe this movie.   CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE.  There is nothing that I find more entertaining then an excellent guilty pleasure movie.  A movie that makes fun of itself and doesn't take itself seriously while being entertaining as hell.   This was exactly that.  You knew it from the trailer that created crazy buzz and you feel it the whole time the movie is on.  I know in advance that I will be watching this movie several times in my lifetime.  

I would absolutely recommend people checking this out.  Kind of violent at times but so much fun.  I definitely see this showing up on my Top 10 list at the end of the year.

Jesus Revolution

In the 1970s, Greg Laurie and a sea of young people descend on sunny Southern California to redefine truth through all means of liberation. Inadvertently, Laurie meets a charismatic street preacher and a pastor who open the doors to a church to a stream of wandering youth. What unfolds is a counterculture movement that becomes the greatest spiritual awakening in American history.

I have always said that for a movie about faith and spirituality has to be really well done to hook me because of the limits on my faith and spirituality.  The one did just that.  I was very interested in the stories of several characters.   I was definitely hooked an invested and at several points made me think about being more religious or spiritual . . . . . . for a little while.

I would surprisingly recommend that people check this out.  It was a good story with a couple of character arcs that you get hooked by.

Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania

Ant-Man and the Wasp find themselves exploring the Quantum Realm, interacting with strange new creatures and embarking on an adventure that pushes them beyond the limits of what they thought was possible.

Um . . . . . . this might easily be the most disappointing of all Marvel movies.   Jonathan Majors is AWESOME as King and that was easily the best part of this movie but outside of him there really wasn't much else to take from this movie.   Also - MODOK might be the single worst thing that Marvel has ever done.  What in God's name made any part of that seem like a good idea.  Marvel has pretty much gone waaaaaaay too sci-fi and waaaaaaaaay too CGI at this point.  I really wish that they could reign that in a lot.  

I would still recommend seeing this of course to continue with the overall MCU storylines but this was definitely massively disappointing.

Magic Mike's Last Dance

Mike Lane takes to the stage once again when a business deal that went bust leaves him broke and bartending in Florida. Hoping for one last hurrah, Mike heads to London with a wealthy socialite who lures him with an offer he can't refuse -- and an agenda all her own. With everything on the line, he soon finds himself trying to whip a hot new roster of talented dancers into shape.

I am not really sure what to make of this movie.   It felt like it didn't even really fit in with the other's except for like two scenes.   The opening dance scene with Tatum and a zoom call with guys from the other movies.  Outside of that this was pretty much a different stand alone movie that was more about the Salma Hayek character that just kind of used the Magic Mike franchise name.  

I wouldn't really recommend that anyone bother with this.  I wasn't really expecting much from this but I was expecting better than this.  The first two movies were actually pretty enjoyable (and funny) movies if you could get past the male stripping stuff.  This one?  Not so much.

Knock At The Cabin

While vacationing at a remote cabin in the woods, a young girl and her parents are taken hostage by four armed strangers who demand they make an unthinkable choice to avert the apocalypse. Confused, scared and with limited access to the outside world, the family must decide what they believe before all is lost.

Sadly there was literally nothing more to the movie outside of the trailer.  Like the whole movie was just a philosophical question without really defined progression and there was some kind of pointless flashback stuff to flesh out the family that is posed said question.   And worst of all, with this being a M Night Shylamanananana movie - there was no twist.  Like if there was ever one of his movies that needed a twist this probably would have been the one.   Very weird and the movie just kind of ended up being there.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone bothering with this.  There is so little substance to it which is honestly shocking because of the high premise trailer.   

80 For Brady

Four best friends live life to the fullest when they embark on a wild trip to see their hero, Tom Brady, play in the 2017 Super Bowl.

This movie is literally the trailer for it.  You watch that you watch the movie.  They pull some completely predictable and formula heart strings along the way but there is nothing outside of the trailer substance wise for this movie.

I wouldn't recommend anyone bothering with this.  Even for the specific age demographic it was made the movie is ultimately just there.
