White Boy Rick also from the Red Box.
Not my kind of movie; I don’t find dramas featuring drugs, addicts and poor dysfunctional families living in the hood very entertaining.
2 out of 5, but only because I think a lot of Matthew McConaughey.

Went last night. It was not quite what I expected but I really enjoyed the movie.
ETA: I expected more violence, and was glad there wasn't. My wife is OK with it as long as it is part of the story line, but doesn't enjoy a thousand round gunfight like some of us (she got home one day when I was watching Heat on the main surround sound system and wondered WTH). We watched all of The Americans and Breaking Bad, but when you are streaming if you are grossed out you can take a break
I also enjoyed going back to a theater, seems like last time we went (Skyfall, maybe?) there was a shitload of hooligans. Perhaps the snow emergency kept them home, maybe the 6:35 showing helped.

The Expanse seasons 1-3.
Rewatched 1 and 2, and purchased S3, bingeing it this weekend.
The benchmark for Science Fiction in Cinema.
It is World building on a level never seen before, a world that respects physics and uses it to shape the drama.
And a grim drama it is.
The characters are well drawn, with even minor characters fleshed out.
Read the books too. One of those rare occasions where each medium adds to the other.
Highly recommended.
Well, my wife and I enjoyed it for what it was. It was entertaining. Sort of like the Punisher genre. Good to see the bad guys go down. And yes, Jennifer is not hard to look at.Originally Posted by Rich_Jenkins
With liberty and justice for all...must be 18, void where prohibited, some restrictions may apply, not available in all states.
Sumo - lots of the top ranks opted out or resigned after crappy performances. That makes the content for the Emperor's Cup a touch boring if Hakuho wins again. I like to see the smaller rolly polly guys duke it out. Some chatter that all the Mongolians are turning off fans and might be involved in some scandals.
1988's Naked Gun on amazon prime. Seen it lots of times years ago -- but still good for a laugh.

The series Police Squad that it was based on was even better. Only 6 episodes or so before it was cancelled, but very funny. Angie Tribeca on TBS was good for a couple seasons if you like that kind of comedy (which I do) but really fell apart later, especially on the most recent season.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
"Abducted in Plain Sight" is a Netflix documentary that will frustrate the hell out of you while you're watching it. I won't spoil it further but holy shit.
Glass
Features a two and a half hour run time. For two hours of that absolutely nothing of consequence happens. Unbreakable was pretty decent, Split was good. This one is drudgery.
We may lose and we may win, but we will never be here again.......
Holy shit is right! What a fucked up group of people, pretty disturbing.. throughout the whole show I’m thinking the entire time, WTF am I watching? If this was not a true story, I would be saying no one in their right mind would buy this story in a million years. This was one of the most fucked up stories I’ve ever heard..
