I watched a couple in theaters lately.
The Barbarian - can really break down into 3 different acts - act 1, great - suspenseful, surprising, act 2, good followup and backstory, act 3, eh... pretty cheesy and filled with typical horror tropes.
Smile - lots of jump scares. Overall a good scary movie. I was hoping there was more to it though - there's not a ton that's not covered in previews. Similar to Barbarian the beginning is great and it goes a bit downhill

I think they waited too long to make the sequel (singing chops were not there). I am not sad that we watched it but I will not watch it again.

Originally posted by Gregg View PostWell, Mrs. Gregg, Grandson and Papa watched Hocus Pocus 2. It needed to be done. I would like to say it was excellent but it was not. It was just ok. It certainly fed off the nostalgia and bumped up against the jokes of the original. But that was not enough to save it.

Originally posted by Gregg View PostI thought the first one delivered much more than I expected. The second one much much less (and I didn't expect much). Some laugh out loud moments in the first one. A chuckle or two in the second.

In addition to all of the Universal Studios black and white monster classics, I also enjoy the first two Jeepers Creepers movies. Not sure why though.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

I can't unlearn what I know and can't support or enjoy his movies knowing what I know.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

I've only seen the first 3, which started out mediocre at best and turned dumb quick. I can't imagine how bad the next 7 straight to video jobs were... although I guess the fans are cracking their whips in excitement for the new one.
