Romy and Michele's High School Reunion

Reb! That cowboy at the end was someone famous. It was Justin Theroux! You vibed right.
One thumbs up - hehe it's fun. And I always laugh when Romy pretends her shoe is filling up with blood and half limps away. Classic.

Rush Hour

I highly suspect mum pinched this DVD from Grandma. Hehe good choice. 

Two thumbs up - perfect afternoon movie with a practically perfect box of pizza Shapes. 

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol

Dermot Mulroney (My Best Friend's Wedding; Gavin from Friends) played the cello in the orchestra for the score of this film. He is a part-time classical cellist. Now THAT is a great fun fact from IMdB! More of this and less stupid irrelevant facts (e.g. Agent Carter is a character from Marvel, in which Jeremy Renner also stars) please!

Three quarters thumbs up - it's alright, but it is no Fallout. 

Snowpiercer

Yeah (Reb's) Matt I agree, this was shite. How on earth did it get 94% on Rotten Tomatoes?!
One thumbs down - hot garbage in a frozen world. Really intriguing world and premise, but my god that was so disjointed and not coherent at all. I am sorry Bong Joon-Ho, but it is a thumbs down for me.

Mission Impossible: Fallout

Me: "Ooh okay. Download the phone. Oh that is clever. I was wondering how they would get the passcode again"
Reb: "Yeah... they are a bit more tech savvy than you"
EVERYONE IS MORE TECH SAVVY THAN ME. However I am more wily than them because if I had to transport a high value prisoner, I wouldn't use a super obvious armoured truck and police convoy. Seriously just pop them in the boot of a silver Corolla and be on your way.
One and a half thumbs up - "sexy fast paced action" except less on the sexy and more on the fast paced. AND I am totally blown by the stunts that they actually did: the skydive!, jumping between buildings!, rappelling down the Palais!, climbing the rope!, the cliff!. WOW!

A Cure For Wellness

Heh my pastel mint-green doona cover matches the colour theme for this movie.
One thumbs up - it is much more exciting and creepy than it reads on Wikipedia. I have wanted to watch this movie for a while now ever since seeing a lot of really cool artwork for it on alternative movie posters. But I was (rightfully) worried I would be scared so I read up the plot on Wikipedia. The movie is better, mostly because it is actually really beautiful. But also creepy, so beware.

To Kill A Mockingbird

Gregory Peck is to George Clooney what Robert Redford is to Brad Pitt. I personally vibe Pitt/Redford way, but really, they are all fine.
Two thumbs up - it is such an amazing adaptation of the book. Though it obviously has to omit some things (like reading to the mean old morphine lady, which for some reason I really liked that part) it really captures everything. And I totally forgot about Dill! And the tree hole treasures!

Ponyo

Whoa you're a man?! But you have such chaotic feminine energy.
One and a half thumbs up - it is basically a mermaid story but if mermaids were less sexy and more about wearing snuggies and being adorable.

Beastie Boys Story

Was not a fan of the format. The whole stage act felt contrived, the intermittent applause was cheesy, and what was the point of having "Spike Jones directed" for that? It didn't do anything better than a regular documentary would have achieved and you can still keep the amazing footage and stories (I especially loved being Madonn's support act, and the Marilyn Handoff house and wardrobe).
'Stupid fresh' but zero thumbs up - also personal thumbs down to Reb and myself for thinking MCA's uncle Nathaniel Hornblower was a real guy. Reb got a pity pat from Matt for that. #rhymez

Rocketman

So... my first experiences of a lot of Elton John songs that were NOT from the Lion King are often from a lot of hilariously "bad" movies (e.g. 'Bennie and the Jets' from 27 Dresses, 'Saturday Night's Alright' from that children's Gnome animation with Emily Blunt). But also good stuff like 'My Song' from Moulin Rouge, and 'Tiny Dancer' from Dave Grohl.
One and a quarter thumbs up - I quite enjoyed it actually. I am surprised that instead of diving into Elton's personal collection of glasses, they went with a lot of modern and current sunglasses (e.g. spotted the Chloe Carlina aviator, Gucci, Fendi, Oliver Goldsmith for being British and of that time; discovered a new brand Cazal).

Long Shot

This movie does not give a fuck how thinly veiled the references are hehe.
Half a thumbs up - they have good chemistry, it is mostly plausible (except for a certain speech at the end), but I think I had higher expectations and it didn't reach those.

Sully

Wait, your wife calls you Sully? That is like a partner calling me "Chimmy". Yeah, nah.
One thumbs up - it is all so insane. And how were there no media images of the passengers standing on the wings? *Voiceover: There were. She clearly did not remember these* 

A Dangerous Method

So I googled Carl Jung afterwards to see if he was as attractive as Michael Fassbender managed (despite the little mustache and little round glasses)... he was not. And the first images Google throws up are of a very old man. So... no.
One thumbs down - I was anticipating Keira Knightley-Michael Fassbender-spanking-sexual-hotness. It was NOT HOT. It was just psychoanalytical talk without much else going on.
