My hunt for a great American entertainment film continues. Yet another promising film turned out to be bad.

6 and no
6/10 is correct. This just felt really unnecessary and we have seen it all before. It wasn't very scary either.
Couldn't agree with you more completely

I use my phone most of the time or my tablet. I gave up on my laptop 2 years ago.

It took too long to boot up.

Well tin cans should at least be cheaper to replace

Oh forgot that, anyone using a Chrome based browser wouldn't be able to use uBlockOrigin as Google Chrome recently dropped V2manifest support. In that case one would use uBlockOrigin Lite or Adblock Plus.

I use an adblocker, uBlockOrigin and it blocks all embedded video links so that my slow internet and old computer doesn't get bogged down. I can still see the video thumbnail and if I choose to watch it I just disable the adblocker.
