Rate The Last Movie You Saw

Do you think you're gonna enjoy Wicked more than this one?

I would hope so. Wicked has a much larger budget, more experienced actors, and looks like a better film overall.

The main romantic male is from Bridgerton.

I have never seen Bridgerton, but I have heard good things.

It's ok. It's a teenage historical romance.

season 1 slaps but the rest is just alright.

Gladiator 2 i loved it , it made me cry . amazing casting and music and soundtrack

Brilliant alternative take on British gangster movies - 8/10

Mia Goth plays an X-rated film star breaking into horror during the 80's while the night stalker is unleashing his reign or terror. That part is awesome and I'll watch any movie with a story like that. Unfortunately it was average just like the rest of the disappointing trilogy.

Dark City (1998)


The sci-fi effects definitely do not hold up, but the story is excellent. It borrows a bit from other material, but it has some originality and an ominous tone the whole movie that really worked for me. Really cool to see Rufus Sewell and Kiefer Sutherland in roles like this, and Jennifer Connelly is great as usual.

2nd Rewatch...Imaginative direction by Colin Higgins, a screenplay that is a perfect blend of physical comedy and Hitchcockian suspense, and two future superstars at the beginning of their careers keep this film watchable. Goldie Hawn plays Gloria Mundy, a romantically challenged librarian who picks up a hitchhiker and makes a date with him to see a movie. The hitchhiker dies next to Gloria in the theater and when she goes to report the murder to the theater manager, the body is a gone, which kicks off an elaborate mystery where Gloria finds herself in danger and her primary protection comes in a form of a police officer named Tony Carlson (Chevy Chase). This one requires attention from the viewer, but said attention does pay off. Hawn and Chase generate such solid chemistry that they were teamed again in 1980 for Seems Like Old Times. The film also features a solid supporting cast including Burgess Meredith, Rachel Roberts, Eugene Roche, Brian Dennehy, and in a very funny cameo that put him on the map in Hollywood, Dudley Moore, who had worked with Peter Cook prior to this, but this was the film that made Hollywood sit up and take notice of him.

2nd Rewatch...In the strongest film of the "sex kitten" stage of her career, Fonda shines as Ellen Gordon, a working girl who becomes mistress to millionaire John Cleves (Jason Robards) and lives in the corporate apartment that Cleves pays for so that they can be together every Wednesday. Complications arise with the arrival of Cass Henderson (Dean Jones), a small town business owner who's in town to negotiate a deal with Cleves and is sent to stay at the apartment without Ellen's knowledge. Cleves' wife, Dorothy (Rosemary Murphy) also arrives in town to surprise her husband with theater tickets even though she's been told he's out of town, like he tells her every Wednesday. It takes a little longer to get where it's going than necessary but it's a lot of fun thanks to the sparkling performances by the four stars. I don't think I have ever enjoyed Dean Jones onscreen more and as she always did with these sex kitten roles, Fonda brings an intelligence to Ellen that's not in the screenplay. Of course, it goes without saying that Robards and Murphy are flawless. The screenplay is a little talky, but the actors make it worth the watch.

I have learned nothing from this post.
