Moonlight

I liked part two the most, the teenage years; I loathe drugs and bullies though.
One thumbs up, and teared up at the most unexpected time - when Kevin lovingly and carefully assembles the rice on the chef's special plate - that was a strange moment to cry!

Fun with Dick and Jane

Unlikeable and unsympathetic white characters steal their way out of bankruptcy.
Zero thumbs up - this is why you have need to have savings, fools.

Louis Theroux: My Scientology Movie

One of the IMdB listed trivia for this movie is that Louis Theroux's middle name is Sebastian, which is a character from The Little Mermaid which also features a chef named Louis - this is not useful or relevant trivia! Leave it blank rather than include this rubbish!
Three quarters thumbs up for reinforcing how Scientology is a hotbed of money-grabbing professional harrassers.

Fifty Shades Darker

Terribly inappropriate times to have sex:
* When you should be fighting about New York and why is he so controlling and borderline abusive
* When you have just been in a helicopter crash and seemingly just walked home without going to hospital
One and a half thumbs down - it is so good at being so bad, and wait, did Kim Basinger just do a weird handkerchief mic-drop after having a cocktail thrown in her face?! Yes, oh yes she did.

Kill Bill: vol: 1

Well this would certainly pass the Bechdel test - does talk about killing each other count?
Two thumbs up - love this movie, and it just occurred to me that it has more female lead characters than male; and amazing women and that, namely The Bride and Lucy Liu.

Lion

I have seen poverty, but I do not know poverty - and appreciate my parents more because of that.
One and three quarters thumbs up - that was so beautiful, even though I cried for 80% of the movie.

Midnight in Paris

When we walked down into Hubert the other day, I felt exactly like this - entering another world that was so Frenchy, and romantic. Oh soft candlelight!
Two thumbs up, and I am so happy Josh actually kind of liked it.

Fifty Shades of Grey

Working on my fifty shades of awesome colour puzzle!
Zero thumbs up - it is lame, but some of those sex scenes are pretty sexy.
