Hehe I can watch this no matter my mood of what I am doing.
Two thumbs up!

Avengers: Endgame

I literally squealed and felt something inside of me when Thor's hammer flew into Captain America's hands! *fans self*
One and a half thumbs up - ironically this is the first Avengers movie I didn't fall asleep in, however I preferred Infinity War.

Brooklyn

Oh poor sweet Jim; and poor darling Tony waiting! I love everyone.
One and a three quarters thumbs up - Saoirse Ronan is so beautiful and wonderful in this.

The Other Guys

I forgot about the accidental TLC references - that was funny.
Zero thumbs up - maybe I am becoming more woke (am I using that correctly?) but Marky Mark was really showing off that toxic masculine side.

Gone Girl

I missed out on dong in the cinema so I made a point to really concentrate in that scene... and the dong is all in the shadows!
One and a half thumbs up - so unnervingly good - and whilst we are on this David Fincher roll, turns out we really like a lot of his films.

Superbad

I didn't have any want to drink in high school so it is really nice seeing Emma Stone's character like that too despite being hot and popular.
Two thumbs up - Superbad is perfect for anything.

Zodiac

They CGI-ed hair onto Jake Gyllenhall's hands because it was too hairless and pretty - now this really is a fun fact.
One thumbs up - I still got spooked a bit, even though it is not horror.

Scent of a Woman

Disciplinary trials in front of the whole school... yeah no one is doing that any more.
Half a thumbs up - it was enjoyable although I still detest the title 'Scent of a Woman' - such a flimsy connection.

Captain Marvel

How come Jude Law is Kree but not blue? I bet it is because he is too big a star to cover his beautiful face in blue paint.
Three quarters thumbs up - it was alright but the 90s thing was a bit of a stretch.

If Beale Street Could Talk

I thought Rachel Weisz in 'The Favourite' was robbed of the Supporting Actress Oscar; granted without having seen 'Beale Street'. Now I am even more convinced she was robbed! Regina King for 15 minutes was absolutely not better than Rachel Weisz. I am so miffed!
Half a thumbs up - it was pretty and I know you are trying to make this intimate, but my god Barry Jenkins not every single shot has to be slow and lingering. What a drag.

Liar Liar

The mum looks like a refined Pam (from The Office).
One and a quarter thumbs up - this is a childhood favourite, however points down to the internet because I cannot find a GIF of the lame claw.

The Hangover

So this was just supposed to be background movie whilst I some Dr. Mario. I got carried away and  accidentally ended up playing for the entire movie length. Josh is not going to be happy. 
One and a half thumbs up!

Casino

De Niro rocking the colourful suits and pastel silk bathrobes.
One and a third thumbs up - I was much more interested in this than I thought I would be which was good, though I was a bit let down by the abrupt ending.

On The Basis of Sex

I was so close to having the whole cinema to myself... and then an old lady walked in.
Three quarter thumbs up - it was alright; never thought I would be interested in following a case about tax law.

The Grand Budapest Hotel


John is going to grow up to be Monsieur Gustave.
One and a quarter thumbs up - I find this the prettiest of Wes Anderson's films but I am always bored during the snow scene (I dozed off for a bit again!)

Abducted in Plain Sight

Obviously Berchtold the paedophile man is the monster here, but I am left feeling more angry and frustrated at the idiot parents who are more concerned about their image in their Mormon community than their daughter.
One thumbs up - I was still shocked watching it even though I already read up on most of the details prior to watching.

The Darjeeling Limited

This is probably the most adult themed Wes Anderson movie, what with the sex, nudity and death - I like it.
One and a half thumbs up, and I forgot about the pepper spray part - that was really funny!

Fyre: The Greatest Party that Never Happened

It's true, my first reaction was to mock these silly rich Insta-wannabe attendees until I decided that no matter their wealth, they still got ripped off and stranded; and then you learn how it ruined the locals and employees too.
One thumbs up - that was fascinating to see each step of this shitstorm happen.

Avengers: Infinity War

Josh: "I knew you were asleep in this part because everyone went *gasp* and you stayed silent"
One and a quarter thumbs up

Spiderman: Homecoming

You think voluntarily going to detention and laughing at your teacher because you are "sketching people in crisis" makes you edgy? No, you just look like a high school emo loser. 
One and a half thumbs up - Tom Holland and Michael Keaton were perfectly cast, but as you can see, I am severely annoyed by Zendaya.
