Mudbound
Jason Clarke (Everest) is a racist land owning farmer during WWII. Carey Mulligan (An Education) is his once old maid and desperate for a loving family wife who becomes very disappointed. One family that works the land is black and they have a son who fights in the war only to come back to being treated like a second class citizen. It was horrible. The acting is good - the writing and the directing - it's not that. The relationships and the racism - its so bad. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Netflix
Cargo
What would a zombie Apocalypse look like in Australia. Martin Freeman (Sherlock) is a father trying to get someone to take care of his baby daughter when he and his wife catch the virus. It's good - and kind of original in the zombie world. All in all, I say: SEE IT on Netflix
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
In my opinion - if you liked Reservoir Dogs, True Romance, Pulp Fiction, and Inglorious Basterds I don't think you will like this. I hated this - it was boring and drawn out. Not great memorable monologues - no seemingly random come together of characters at the end - not really. The main character is Hollywood during the 60s. All in all, I say: SKIP IT
The Disaster Artist
This is a movie based on the filming of another movie that has become a cult classic. I don't get it. The Francos star and it's just strange and uncomfortable. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Amazon
A Street Cat Names Bob
This based on a true story that became a book that became a movie. A drug addict finds a friend in a stray cat. I don't really like drug stories but I watched this for the cat. It was a slow to get going. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Amazon and read the book.
American Renegades
A group of elite soldiers in former Yugoslavia help locals go behind the back of an evil guy to find gold. It seemed like it would be funny and have action - neither was true. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Amazon
Killing Gunther
A group of assassins hire a documentary crew to film them trying to kill the world's best assassin - he did them all wrong. It's supposed to be funny, but I didn't smile or laugh once. All in all, I say: SKIP IT on Amazon
