As you know, I don't get out to see movies in the theater, like, ever, so it wasn't like I was going to see Suicide Squad until it was available to rent. The funny thing is, once it was available, it was still something like $5 bucks to rent, and I thought to myself, "You know what? I think I might just Redbox this one. I'm not sure if I want to spring more than a dollar on it..." And now it is available at Redbox, and I'm thinking, "I don't know...do I really want to see this?" I just know it's going to be terrible.

And now it is available at Redbox, and I'm thinking, "I don't know...do I really want to see this?" I just know it's going to be terrible.

It's one of those movies where the more I think about it the stupider it becomes. Here's what I do like about it - Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, and Jai Cortney. That's it.

 

I should re-arrange my order cause I think I actually liked BvS more.

[Smigg 1488]

In no particular order:

 

The Nice Guys

Deadpool

David Brent: Life on the Road

Bleed for This

Bastille Day (now known as "The Take")

Captain America: Civil War

Creed*

The Magnificent Seven

Eddie The Eagle

Ip Man 3

Central Intelligence*

 

*Creed was released in the UK in January 2016, so if it's not counted because of it's US release, Central Intelligence takes it's place.

 

Bottom Five:

 

Bad Neighbours 2: Sorority Rising

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2

True Memoirs of an International Assassin

The Do Over

Zoolander 2

 

My movie watching tends to be action, comedy, or things I've seen god knows how many times.

Well, just take my list, tear it up, and throw it straight in the goddamn garbage. Sing Street just took number one. The others can fall where they may...

[RyanSz 3140]

I just remember two other shitty ones I saw this year: Let's Be Evil and Independence Day: Resurgence.

[IRONicmerMAN 391]

I guess no one saw Nine Lives. Fantastic reviews.

 

"Cats may have nine lives, but you only get one, and it’s too precious to waste on this drivel. You’re better off watching a gif of a cat whose face is stuck in a slice of bread. It will save you $20 and a few hours of your time".

"The only reason this 'comedy' won’t derail Kevin Spacey’s career is no one will ever watch this outside of military interrogation rooms".

I need this weekend to compile and arrange my personal list but meanwhile I suggest that anybody who has not seen Kubo go see it as soon as possible during this holiday break
