    The Perfect Storm
    I love this movie. I've seen it at least a dozen times.

    I tried reading the book, but it was a little too dry for me at the time I was reading it.
    This is a true story, yet everybody dies at the end, so  how true is it?

    It's not. The book is quite different from the movie- it may or may not be more accurate.

    The author pieced together what he could given what they knew (from all correspondence) and tried to tell the story.

    i was originally thinking it might not be great but there were at least 4-5 times where i laughed so hard it hurt. and when that happens it becomes instantly re-watchable(at a later date/time). good flick

    A Street Cat Named Bob

    I posted about this in the cat thread and maybe the book thread as well.  Anyway this is a true story based on the book of the same name about how a cat pretty much saved a guy from England.  Followed the book very well.  Also the actor, Luke Treadaway, who played the main guy is apparently an Eddie Vedder fan.  Bob the actual cat from the book plays himself in the movie. Movie's on nextflix

    Eerie... here's that guy and his cat I spoke about.

    I told him I had talked about him and his cat and asked if I could take a picture to share.

    That cat and him have been together for over six years. Smokey is the cat (I think if I recall correctly).

    Pretty cool relationship.

    Life (2017)

    I have never seen a space movie that bleak before.
    There was also a somewhat significant disappointment fairly early in movie that surprised me. I can't say what it is because it would be a spoiler, but those who saw would probably know what I mean.
    It's just okay. The tension is maintained well anyway. I don't like the lighting of the movie. It's too visually dark, to the point where I felt it was really unrealistic that astronaughts would be working in such dim conditions. They obviously did that to set up a mood (a bleak one!), and i guess that worked, but it didn't ring true. It's a watchable movie that is somewhat intriguing I guess, but I expected more.

                           and somebody please help.
                           how does he get swabs in his ears with his hands tied to the arms of a chair?
                           I just experimented and it can't be done.

    Manchester by the Sea.  I much prefer a drama to an action movie,  but I didn't think this movie was all that great.  The movie didn't give you any reason to like any of the characters.

    Sully.  It was just ok.  And the fact that the way the NTSB was portrayed was complete bullshit made me like it even less.

    I finally saw Doctor Strange. Meh. The visuals were cool, lots of fractals/ Escher-type stuff, but the script/plot felt like a waste of talent. I also spent the whole movie wondering if the screenplay had been written ten years ago with Hugh Laurie in mind for the title role, "paging Dr. House!"
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Blue Jasmine. 
    Not bad. Cate Blanchet is great as always, but to see her taking pills like they were candy and talking about the death of her husband wasn't the best way for me to change my mind.
