Looking forward to normal Peter in their super duper fucking group
Wonder how long he will survive? -
The Outsider - someone else mentioned this, I thought it was ok, thought Leto was fine, very much Bale in American Psycho kinda character
3 chopped off fingers out of 5 yakuza
Den of Thieves - bit of fun as a crime unit lead by Gerrard Butler tries to stop some bank robbers.
3.5 heists out of 5 shootouts
Ice Cubes son stars in this as well, Fiddy Cent has a great scene where a dude turns up to take his daughter to the prom...not too disimilar to the Wil Smith and Martin Lawrence one in Bad Boys

oh, another I watched recently, The Foreigner
Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan
JAckie's kid is killed in a rogue IRA bombing, and he goes to Pierce (former IRA, now Irish politician) for answers. Not quite your usual Jackie Chan film, but he still kicks a few butts, despite looking and acting like an old man.
3.5 Jackie Chan fight moves out of 5 Pierce Brosnan films where he comes across much tougher than when he was James Bond.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
Besides some of the usual OTT Bayesque macho bullshit, I found this quite a good film. He didn't even really fuck around with the facts too much.
4 shattered arms out of 5 video connections across the planet that are better than the shit internet I have at home.

Watched Bladerunner yesterday. I don't remember the original so had few preconceptions. But I really enjoyed it. Not a whizz pop bang action film, I loved the way it looked, I felt the tension and the film did not feel too long. 4 hot holograms out of 5 crazed replicant assassins

I'm obsessed with Ana de Armas - also because she's in War Dogs. And she reminds me of a Personal Trainer at the local gym.
She was spectacular in war dogs. You must love going for a work out!

I have a gym in my apartment building, but I could take a hike way out north west for this personal trainer I feel.
The Quiet Place: Emily Blunt and Jim from the US office. I really liked this movie, about a family living under the fear of aliens who are attracted to sound, so they have to remain silent. A kind of horror/thriller/sci fi mixup. 4 nails in the foot out of five hearing aids.
Rampage: Average film about giant animals starring the Rock and a nice Neagan. 2 flying wolfs out of 5 albino gorillas.

I saw Three Billboards today. It drew me in, I enjoyed being immersed in the goings on of the crazy rural USA town. It was well acted, the story was interesting, there were a few twists in there, but ultimately it felt unresolved at the end. I figured the writers had set up their murderer with the initial confrontation with McDormand, but it apparently wasn't to be, although perhaps he was being protected by his superiors. The conversation between him Mildred and Dixon at gunpoint would have been an interesting one. 4.5 desperate mums out of 5 crazy racist hillbilly ex-cops

Avengers: Infinity War
Wow. Fuck. Wow.
6 Infinity Stones out of 6.
6? You can't just change the rules like that.
