Yup, finished all 3 episode and it's planned for 8. the music / suspense is good. I think each episode is movie quality is really awesome cause there's always some type of action and encounter of an alien.

Please don't pull stupid ass stunt and put out an episode without any aliens and make it all about dialogue LOL.

There are times when I feel.. errr you're a search and rescue team.. where are the guns. Where are your back up - you're just 2 people + 1 medic wtf... and you're just wearing a satchel...LOL

Episode 3 reminded me of Judge Dredd (2nd one in 2012) which they are all trying to escape / arrest someone in one building.
Jeff Russo as I've said did the score so it's crazy esp he took some futuristic sounds which I guess he got his mojo esp doing Star Trek + Umbrella academy.

4 "Observation"[16] Ugla Hauksdóttir Noah Hawley and Bobak Esfarjani August 26, 2025 TBD
5 "In Space, No One..."[17] Noah Hawley Noah Hawley September 2, 2025 TBD
6 "The Fly"[18] Ugla Hauksdóttir Noah Hawley and Lisa Long September 9, 2025 TBD
7 "Emergence"[19] Dana Gonzales Noah Hawley and Maria Melnik September 16, 2025 TBD
8 "The Real Monsters"[20] TBA Noah Hawley & Migizi Pensoneau September 23, 2025

Formula 1

what a great summer movie that wife and I could enjoy without her being crazy about whether it's sad ending or ghosts or crime etc.

Amazing pacing, story and character building, jam packed action with brilliant sound effects. Fact that Joseph Kosinski did wrote and director this definitely was from teh help of his previous blockbuster (Tron, Oblivion (tom cruise), and of course Top Gun: Maverick with the recent -Twister movie). All in all, nothing was too forced, you know how it will all work out. Brad's own story line was solid as well as minmial love interests just made it all work.

The jokes, casting, and dialogue were all nicely done so it wasnt' just a race movie. Yes there were times wife had to stop and ask the questions btu it didn't kill the rhytm. Great summer happy go luck watch for the family.

Dang Brad is getting old.. but I cant' image any A class males woudl be able to do this. THen again, the movie woudl have to be B pitt as he was paid 30 M all along fro leading the project since the bidding started.

28 Years Later -- Ughhhh... How did they fuck this one up so bad? This is a classic example of how modern films really suck when compared to their originals. 28 days later was easily one of my favorite "zombie" films, I cannot believe how different and poor this film is in comparison.

No spoilers, but this one can't hold a candle to the original, it felt almost cartoonish, such a different feel to this film.

6/10, although I could even give this a 5/10.

Eenie Meanie - 9/10

The title is weird but it was a great movie. It's technically a heist thriller but it had a lot more than just that in it. The action sequences were good and the characters felt very real, they were all flawed, normal people. The plot kept me guessing and I won't spoil it but the ending caught me off guard a bit, though it did make sense and was fitting with the characters.

On a car note it has an absolutely gorgeous 72 Barracuda in it.

Fortunately the trailer had shown enough good bits to get me interested without giving away the whole plot (rare these days) before the title was shown. It also only comes up very, very briefly during the movie as well.

It reminded me of Baby Driver. The title, and especially the accounts for the ads like babydrivermovie, sounded so cheesy I thought it had to be complete crap. Eventually I heard enough good things about it to check it out and it was actually pretty decent.

Kpop Demon Hunters 8/10

Fun charming movie, catchy tunes and amazing audio if you have a good sound system.

This was my exactly my thought, checked out the trailer after reading your post and instantly thought of Baby Driver.

Eenie Meanie did not do it for me (or my wife); many woudl say i have weird taste on here so i'll blame myself. Shawn Simmons was writer and director which did help cause it helps with vision but it also means if it fails, it's their fault.

Shawn did do The Continental but it only lasted 3 episode. Not sure if it's cause he's still a newbie but the pacing of the movie was a tad slow for wife and I. I did enjoy the explanation between the bf / girl direction; didn't save the movie.

Samara Weaving has a few VHS / DVD movies under her belt (as a lead) but mostly cause she's a blonde. Her acting, maybe due to character was really mono tone, lack of connection with the bf, audience ...

The final action sequence also didn't justify the entire movie. At least for baby driver it was action, car chase and most importantly, the pull between Kevin Spacey's relationship. This one was really meh esp Andy Garcia was casted.

What do I know about movies but 50 million is quite steep to fall this flat esp when you casted a whole bunch of lack luster star power cast to also fail in car chase sequence.

Watching the trailer I was really confused about the appeal of her bf, he looks like an addict which I understand also from the trailer he may well be, but what’s her attraction to him at a level where she wants to risk her life to save him or he bags a hottie like that even on his best sober day?

It's weird some people rate 28 weeks later as a bad movie, but I actually enjoyed it (although its been a while since I've seen it).

I'd say I enjoyed 28 weeks later more than 28 years later, by a fair margin.

They leaned too much into the silly/comedic side in this most recent movie, which I absolutely HATE about modern films.
