IT (2017) - 7/10
Late to this one as usual. I guess it was pretty much what I expected, your standard jump scare fest with a clown thrown in. I was hoping for a bit more than that given the massive hype it's had. But it was enjoyable enough none the less. The kids were all pretty good little actors and their side of the story was done fairly well. Whoever played Pennywise did a fairly good job also. But I'd like to see more psychological and smarter scares from a sequel rather then just loud crashing sounds with jump moments every time.
Justice league - 6/10
Not sure how to score this one. I'm not too invested in comic characters in general so I tend to go in with different expectations to most viewers. I've heard that this is the worst thing ever put to film. That's not the case. This has some fairly enjoyable moments with a few interesting characters. I liked the flash and his light relief which worked just fine for me in context (great after scene moment also) And I've always liked HC as Supes personally, but I quite like MOS so what do I know?
Ultimately however, even though there was stuff to like here for me. It was still just a run of the mill comic action flick full of CGI bag guys, and fairly bad CGI sadly which takes me out of a movie and reduces my enjoyment immensely. It was a a bit all over the place at times also.There's a potentially good franchise in here if they can smooth over the edges and just make a better movie with the characters and world they have. So not a terrible movie by any means, but not particularly memorable either.

So did I. I like most Tom Cruise movies tbh, I never understood the bad rep he gets from some corners.
