I think youā€™ll enjoy it! A lot of times the action movies overdo the action part so that itā€™s not really super realistic to the storyline. I thought this one was pretty well done and the fighting capabilities of the airline pilot character were well matched to what you would expect a normal person in that situation to be capable of. It was genius they paired him with another character with much more experience fictionally speaking. The other lead character was a former member of the French Foreign Legion. Also, they didnā€™t drag the plot on and on it resolved itself in a natural timeline that fit the plot. Iā€™m not usually this much of a movie critic or snob lol but I had my doubts when I saw the preview. Like I said I was pleasantly surprised!

Based on a true story, itā€™s an Australian rom-com about a young man born in Iran with Iraqi parents that immigrated to Australia.

This was a very good relatable/ realistic film. :+1:t4:

Cracker of a movie I watched over Christmas. Quite arty. Two Scottish actors. The wee girl had never acted before in her life! A very natural relationship throughout with the main character.

The final scene will stay with you for days!

My favorite season.
Award Season :joy:

Not sure why this gets a best pic nomination. Thought Iā€™d check it out though.

Not sure it was worth the watch :thinking: It wasnā€™t. :face_vomiting:
But I sat through it :sweat:

Ya they talked it up on NPR so I watched it and it was a bit odd. I didnā€™t like the ending either. My coworker just suggested this one:

So Iā€™m going to watch it this weekend.

Havenā€™t heard of it. I donā€™t see it on my Oscars best pic list. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: So far Iā€™m pulling for Elvis. I hope he, the actor who played Elvis, gets best actor. He was s9 good.

I couldnā€™t believe the ending.

Looks pretty interesting. Let me know.
I better not tell wifey you recommended it though. She still holds a grudge from Bad Santa :santa: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::joy:

Ya. That was a pretty cool one. Just stumbled across it.

Iā€™m trying to make my way thru the Oscar noms as well. Saw Elvis on Thursday and was blown away. Very well done.

Banshees of Inisherin was really good as well. Colin Farrellā€™s performance was such a deviation from his typical roles/persona. Blown away. Lovely movie.

I havenā€™t attempted Triangle of Sadness because I have yet to hear but one person who said it was any good. Iā€™ll pass for now.

Probably a good decision on Triangle.
I donā€™t know why they need to pick ten movies for best pic. I think thatā€™s ridiculous. Iā€™m passing on Top Gun for now.
And no Avatar for me thanks.

Have you or anyone @Ravikamor heard anything about TĆ”r. I hear itā€™s 2 1/2 hours long :scream: Iā€™m not good past 2 hours. Elvis was an exception.
But I heard Cate Blanchet was terrific.

Actually just watched the preview. Looks very good.

Havenā€™t seen The Fablemans yet. @Soberbilly
Billy said it was good. The preview wasnā€™t all that exciting to me. But Iā€™ll probably get that one in before award night.

I liked Banshees. No best pic material. But strangely well done. Interest plot.
