The second season of Never have I ever was pretty good just like the first one but they need to get better male characters because both the main character's love interests remain the worst.

I’m not sure I ever laughed more than a few times watching it but I was absolutely never bored. It’s loving bonkers in a very entertaining way.

:same: It’s really stupid but it was enjoyable.

Also, mentioned this in the horror thread but I really liked The Empty Man on HBO. It’s not the stupid creepy pasta movie the trailer makes it out to be at all. It’s weird as hell.

The third Fear Street movie was the most enjoyable of the trilogy but the first half was definitely the better probably because it did away with the hyper fast cutting of first two movies and there were none of the annoying 10 second needle drops happening every few minutes.

I did laugh at the end though when they played 10 seconds of a Pixies song before immediately switching over to a second Pixies song.

That dude made a terrible deal with the devil, like hundreds of years of sacrifice to be what a small town mayor and sheriff?

NOOOOOO! Just watched Face/Off for the first time.

WHY? So many better movies were cut at a hour and forty-five. I invested two and a quarter in this......

Props to John Travolta and Nick Cage. They were very good in their roles. Doesn't change the fact that this movie sucked....bad.

If you can’t love the cheesiness, and over the top action scenes of Face/Off then I really pity your life. One of the best action movies of the 90s.

I got halfway through and honestly forgot I never finished it until reading this post. I was pretty disappointed after what I thought was a strong ending to season three.

Any of y'all ever watch Spontaneous (2020) - pretty sure it's on Hulu at the moment. Lovely, bizarre little black comedy/sci-fi rom-com about a high school where students start exploding into clouds of blood. Pretty much every character is likeable, the writing is decent and it's kind of touching! Absolutely loved it. God awful poster though.

This is def. worth a watch. The third act meanders a bit, but it’s really well written.

Dipped out of Gunpowder Milkshake halfway in. Too many lines where someone pauses before saying a euphemism for "gun" or "kill" or whatever other thing they're playing coy about in a terrible attempt at humor. Soundtrack is weird, the action scenes are fun ideas with bad execution, and the plot is kicked off with yet another boring "assassin hesitates at doing the thing they've done without hesitation for their whole life except this one time for some reason" hook that feels completely unwarranted. For all of its go-girl bluster it comes off as desperate to be liked in the worst possible way

Edit: Face/Off is a goddamn masterpiece and I will die on this hill

I mean the show opens with a flashforward showing that a major character dies so there's a bit of a mystery about "how bad could it get?"

This was what I was trying to think of! Yes, Con Air, and Snake Eyes, where John Heard plays the same character he does in Home Alone (ok so that's not explicitly stated, but you go ahead and google how much that many coach and first class tickets to Paris costs and tell me what job the dad is supposed to have).

For real though, the cheesiness and overacting is essentially the point of Face/Off, or at least some of the best parts.

That's fair. It didn't suck. It just wasn't good. And it was way too long. I usually want my movies longer. I wanted that one to end so that I could better my day with something else.

I actually liked Space Jam 2 but they definitely were insecure with just the Basketball/Looney Toons combo that drove the original so they forced a bunch of Ready Player One-style pop culture references into it.
