Specialist Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 "The Spy Who Dumped Me" - OK, this was just FUN. It trotted out EVERY LAST ONE of the known spy movie cliche's, and it still managed to wind up being fun to watch. "Casablanca" - Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman, if memory serves me. No matter how many times I see this one, I still enjoy it, every time. It is arguably the best movie ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 The Green Book [2018] Feel good road movie about a talented colored musician who hires and Italian immigrant tough as his driver for a tour of America racist south during the 60s. Well acted out true story, albeit a little too Hollywood mush for some tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavanami Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Tiger (2018) A practicing Sikh is banned by the boxing commission for refusing to back down from his religious beliefs. Through racial profiling and stereotypical threats, he does what any strong American would do, fight back.

cavanami Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Didn't know they still make B- movies.. Guns of the Apocalypse (2018) In writer/director Christopher R. Mihm's "post-apocalyptic-spaghetti-Midwestern," a man with no name is forced into a world of danger and bloodshed after he saves a scientist and a gifted child from a horde of radiation-scarred mutants. Though he would prefer to stay hidden until he can escape to a new life, something about the child-and the murderous "Death Dealers" hunting her-makes him realize he has no choice but to protect her or risk being responsible for the potential extinction of the human race. Maybe this was a high school project? So bad, couldn't stop watching it 555 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
