Easily the worst one. I know what to expect from Michael Bay and I do enjoy a few of them but he clearly didn’t give two ----s here and the pandering to the chinese market was obnoxious.

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

It's close between that one and revenge of the fallen.

Sorry to Bother You 2 out of 10

The movie doesn't know what genre it wants to be. The jokes that actually land are few and far between. The place is slow and the meanders on scenes that add little to the overall story. I got that feeling of "I should turn that channel because this is losing my interest". This is another movie that shows that critics only care about something novel and different and they no longer care if it is good. I have no idea how this gets a 95% critic score with a 7.8 of 10 critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Only watched this as I subscribe to AMC A-List, so it didn't cost me anything more to watch this and I already got my money's worth watching Sacario 2, Jurassic World 2 and Ant-Man and the Wasp this month.

Ant- Man and the Wasp (7.5 out of 10)

Story structure is a bit sloppy and the overall premise is a bit silly. But the performances, good jokes and good pacing through the movie made this a very entertaining Marvel movie. Bonus points for not having a villain that was a mirror image of the hero (sorry Black Panther, I'm looking at you for having a by-the-numbers origin just like Iron Man, Ant-Man, Doctor Strange, etc). Evangeline Lily rocks as Wasp. Marvel needs to use her in other movies as Wasp belongs in the Avengers movies.

Sicario: Day of the Soldado (7 out of 10)

Excellent performances from all the leads. Good to see that Transformers didn't torpedo Isablea Moner's burgeoning career as she is quite talented. I'm not a fan of Brolin but I have to give him props for portaying a character that isn't "Brolinesque". And of Benicio is amazing. This movie isn't for everyone. It is a slow burn drama with small bits of action. If you like the first movie, Sicario 2 delivers much of the same. It just lacks that strong "gut punch" ending the first one had. But I still enjoyed it overall.
