They really did some incredibly stupid things in the movie but It was one one of those “ I can’t look away” movies which is always good I guess.

All the Money in the World (2017) - The story of the kidnapping of 16-year-old John Paul Getty III and the desperate attempt by his devoted mother to convince his billionaire grandfather Jean Paul Getty to pay the ransom.

Michelle Williams is great (no surprise there), but the end was a bit of a fizzle. 7/10

Marjorie Prime (2017) - 9/10

I'd never heard of this until a friend recommended it, and I was really impressed. Based on a play, this science fiction flick is set in a near future where people can interact with holographic reproductions of the deceased. Rather than being overtly futuristic, it's more introspective - an interesting study of identity and memory. While there’s a lot of talking, it all has a point.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I liked the movie but didn't like the ending. It was predictable but that was not the part I didn't like.

If it was me fishing and I looked in the window, I would think "nope, I am not touching that"

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) - A mother personally challenges the local authorities to solve her daughter's murder when they fail to catch the culprit.

The few trailers I had seen made me think this movie would be funny. And it was often very funny, but I had no idea that underneath the humor, the premise was so serious. Almost every character had this incredible sadness hanging over them. The movie deserves all the acclaim it has received. 9/10

IT: 2017. - 6/10

A disjointed collection of scare scenes and forced nostalgia. F#*€ off Hollywood.

The snowman 5/10

Yawnfest. No intrigue no nothing.
