Bullet Train 7/10 (keep in mind I can't stand Brad Pitt either but still enjoyed it very much).

Prey 6/10

Enjoyable enough at times, but I'm a bit bemused as to the numerous claims of it being a masterpiece, better than the original etc. Prey had things to like in it, but it didn't really do anything different, nor did it make you care about any of the characters outside of the Dog and the brother (Both great) The French guys were laughable caricatures. The Predator itself also had none of the tact of his predecessors, basically walking right up to his victims and just tanking damage rather than using his agility and stealth. He also looks atrocious when he removed his mask, Mr Winston would be rolling in his grave. I hope we can end this game of trying to one up each Predator design now and just get back to how they should look. This one looks and acts so differently to the City and Jungle hunters that it may as well be a different species all together. I don't know, maybe I'll try it again in a few months, but I went in to this one genuinely excited, with high expectations and it's one dimensional cast, cgi animals (And blood etc etc) And sub par creature design didn't meet them. Predator is in a different league and both Predator 2 and Predators are better movies imo. This had a nice concept that it could and probably should have done more with. Although it is worth an hour and a half or so of your time...

Xanadu (1980) - A struggling artist living in Los Angeles meets a girl who may hold the key to his happiness.

Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly salvage this cheese somewhat. R.I.P. ONJ. 5/10

Men

6/10

A bit to on the nose with it themes, and even though I love slow burn horror this takes too long to get going and even then the pay off is a bit of a letdown. The actual gore and body horror at the end though saved it a bit for me.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Uncharted 4/10. Videos games were much better.

Bullet Train 8/10 just wanted a fun entertaining movie that I could just sit and watch and enjoy some popcorn and that's exactly what I got.

The Northman - 4/10. “Iron John” meets “Where the Wild Things Are” meets “Gladiator” meets “Revenge of the Sith” as penned by William Shakespeare’s intern. So hyped to watch this movie, so disappointed. Well, I’ll always have “13th Warrior.”
