It's absolutely brilliant, I love all the stuff Christopher Smith (director) did.Michael wrote:go birds wrote:Another movie that I liked quite a bit more than most people is Black Death.

It's about group of religious mercenaries who are tasked with finding a village suspected of witchcraft because it's untouched by the plague. You can find it on netflix.
I just watched "Passengers", and...it's a bit off.

Pretty much a modern day western. Loved it as well.

Re: movies
Saw "Fences". It is ok-acting was great. probably better to be kept as a play-slow as a full length film.
Saw it with large family group-I liked it more than the rest. Some wanted more feel-good. It had enough

Sometimes movies not about real people make the best statement about real people, to me.Joe Shlabotnik wrote:I can't wait til they make movies about real people again.

Passengers is one I'll probably watch eventually but I'm not sure I'll like it after some of what I've heard.Famous Mortimer wrote:It's absolutely brilliant, I love all the stuff Christopher Smith (director) did.Michael wrote:go birds wrote:Another movie that I liked quite a bit more than most people is Black Death.
