    Went to an advance screening of this...lots of twists and endless action. Iko Uwais did a great job, my only complaint is that Ronda Rousey didn't have a bigger role.

    The Ballad of Lefty Brown
    I always like a decent Western and I enjoyed this.  Not the best, but enjoyable.
    Ha! Great title. :cowboy:

    Watched this one a while ago, it had the makings of a good movie but I thought that it fell short of it's full potential.

    Great movie
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    Agree -- wanted him to go full William H Munny at the end.  We got there but there are not many movies (IMO) that can touch the way that Unforgiven wrapped things up.

    The Last Samurai

    Not usually a fan of Cruise, but this may be my favourite of his movies that I've seen (it's that or the cheesefest that is Top Gun, lol).  Samurai was good enough that the couple cheesy moments didn't bother me, just disappointed I didn't watch this sooner.  The battle scenes were especially good, pre-cgi armies, lol.

    My favorite TC starring movie.  He has been in other movies that I may like more but this is the one I have watched the most times.

    The other standout of that movie was Ken Watanabe, I thought.  Going to give it a second watch before I return my buddy's borrowed copy, lol.

    I love the last samurai...now I'm going to have to give it a re-watch.

    Someone gave me a really nice replica of the katana with the "Since ancient times to the present, God is with those who serve with dignity and honor" engraving on it at one point actually.

    The Grey - a hugely under rated film, in my opinion. One of my favourites and surely one of Neeson's finest.

    if uplifting is what you are looking for, look elsewhere

    Three Billboards . . .watched it in Seattle at friends house during my Home show trip, had no idea what it was about. It was disturbing and heart wrenching.  One that will stay with me for awhile.
