Movie review thread...

Did a bit of flying and caught up with some movies.
Black Panther - I enjoyed it but glad I was pre-aware that it had been massively overhyped. 3.5 ethno-states out of 5.
3 Billboards outside Ebbing Missouri - Gripping but it seemed a little far fetched which kind of tempered my enjoyment for some reason..you know for a movie that was kinda realistic rather than a straight up fantasy. 3.5 midget dates outta 5.
Avengers (new one..) - Waaaay better than the last Avengers, time seemed to fly by. 4 outta 5 infinity stones.
I also re-watched 'Fight Club' which I hadn't seen in a number of years. I was a little nervous about doing it as a number of older movies haven't lived up to my memories of late. Well I needn't have been. Solid 5 punches in the ear outta 5. Easily my favourite movie of all time.
I reckon Fight Club is one of THE most overrated movies of our times. It's ok but no more than that.
How did you think 3 billboards was far fetched?

@Rembrandt Like you, I have done a bit of flying in past 10 days (London and Back)
Watched all three Avengers. I am a bit of a softy for a nice ending and was left gutted and disappointed with the last Avengers. Some awesome characters eliminated (I'm assuming they will use a time stone to bring them back or summink)
Fight Clubs Rooooocks! I have just watched that again recently. Brad Pitt is one of my favourate actors I think.
I know most people dislike but I watched Justice League on the way to London and again on the way home. I really liked it.

Hard to put my finger on exactly, much of the characters actions just didn't seem likely, found it very difficult to engage my 'suspension of disbelief'. Still enjoyed it though.

I can only assume this is a troll. Or a russian bot. No red blooded male would ever make such a statement, even in jest.

Christ on a bike. I'm not saying I don't like it I'm just saying it's very overrated. Bloody difficult on this thread sometimes, people get triggered easier than SJWs.

@mn5 speaking of triggered...
Is self triggering a thing?
Actually, I'm of the opinion that Three Billboards is somewhat unrealistic (but all of the McDonagh brothers films are a wee bit unrealistic). I don't think it's the stone cold classic people are saying it is (Rockwell's arc especially requires way too much suspension of disbelief. But it's a good movie that I enjoyed while watching.

Isn’t she discussing self triggering?

@jegga I'm not watching that - have you ever spoken with a medical professional over your tendency to self-harm?
Check out the fat shamer everyone.
Seems to me she says she self triggers five times in 22 seconds .

oddly, the movie title tells you what it is about...but is alot of background to why the billboards went up and around them.
Was a good movie, as for suspending belief, I think people take movies far too seriously, isnt that the point of movies/tv (barring doco's or true story ones) a bit of escapism and fiction.
I mean 3 of the top 4 highest grossing movies ever have aliens and super heroes, the other has a real event in it, but the rest is made up...if you add in #5-10 you have Dinosaurs, more super heroes a Wizard and a movie about an FBI guy that helps some boy racers
