What was the last TV Show or Movie you saw, and did you like it?

Saw “Predator” the other night. Obscure Schwarzenegger flick that I’d never heard of. Lots of violence, shooting, profanity and the like. Not my cup of tea.

Watched True Romance finally. Gary Oldman's awesome performance was the best thing about the movie.

Rented The Outpost after reading Clint Romesha's book Red Platoon. Pretty close and faithful to the book except for a few annoying PC hollywoodizations.

When the apaches first come to the rescue a woman pilots voice comes over the radio when all the pilots in reality were men (have to get that feminism in there) and you could tell the director/producer were being very careful about their portrayal of Captain Brower given the current racial tensions. He was largely blamed for several failures in later investigations of the incident. Also the actor that played Ty Carter (the other MoH recipient) made him look like a total slack jaw yokel which is an unfair portrayal.

Otherwise, pretty decent film that gives credit to those poor cav troopers stuck in the tactically awful outpost keating amidst a complete onslaught by the Taliban.

I think the score of a film has a BIG impact on the viewing experience. "Predator" has one of the best scores ever. IMO, it is right up there with "The Magnificent Seven" by Elmer Bernstein.

GREAT movie! Amazing cast. Brilliant Tarantino writing, without his self-indulgent directing. One of my favorites.

One of my favorites. Oldman was wonderful but so was Hopper. But the best thing about the movie is Walken’s P7M13.

Watched a couple episodes of "Hunters". I found it wanting on many levels and could not continue with the series. It was a bad, cartoonish production and it did not properly honor the memory of those lost during the holocaust, (and took liberties with history it shouldn't have), imho.

I’m with you, @blues. We gave “Hunters” a fair shake, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that we were watching a comic book. Gave up after 2 or 3 episodes.

We've watched the first two episodes of Hunters this week. I can feel the wife getting annoyed with the "comic book feel" you guys reference. I personally like it and I find it kind of a Scott Pilgrim feel, albeit more subtly so.

I'm not sure I'm connecting with any of the characters yet (oddly the young Nazi kid is the most intriguing, while obviously repellent). The only one I was starting to like on the "good guys" side just got killed I think...

Just finished up S2 of Hanna on Amazon Prime. 8 episodes this season .

I enjoyed it. Worth the time IMHO.
