Watched the brutalist. Expected to dislike it. Not a big Adrian Brody fan.

It was terrific. I broke it up over 2 days, great story.

Damn, I keep putting it off but you may have sold me on it. Ever since The Irishman I've been very skeptical of 3.5 hour long movies.

Yeah I get that. I know for me I went on a Scorsese kick during that time and I made the mistake of watching it before Goodfellas and I couldn't finish Goodfellas. Not a bad movie but the overall plot is like 80% the same.

That scene of 80yr old deniro whipping a guy's ass but he's supposed to be "deaged" to like 30 but the body movement is still grandpa is one of the more lol movie moments I can remember.

The Assessment - A decent sci-fi flick that's pretty uncomfortable throughout. There's nothing really mindblowing in it but it's pretty well done.

Superman - This is the best Superman I've seen, but that's a pretty low bar.  It's basically Superman done to Marvel quality and isn't as dark and broody as previous DC movies.

Knocked out a few longer movies this weekend while I recovered from getting fixed.

RRR - 6/7 - Nonstop Bollywood fun.

LA Confidential - 5.5/7 - Probably would be higher except I happened to see a major spoiler while the movie played at a bar in Santa Fe. Granted, I wouldn't have seen the movie if the couple of scenes I saw had sold me on it.

The Last Emporer - 3.5/7 - It's fine. I get why it won Best Picture. I feel like I should have researched the history of all of that before watching it because I just had so many questions throughout that I had to stop and google.
