I've been trying to get folks to watch this one since January. Brilliant film that is a must see for anyone with an aging parent. So much of it hits home in a very meaningful way.
Meanwhile, I saw a screening of Space Jam tonight and it was even worse than I feared. It may take me a day or two to get my extensive (ha!) review done but whatever you do, do not spend a penny on this Warner Bros. marketing exercise masquerading as a film.

We started watched Frayed on HBO Max and are really enjoying it. Usually good for a couple of real laughs an episode. It's about a woman from New Castle, Australia who leaves and becomes a to-do in London with a wealthy husband and two children...then, something happens, and she's forced to return home with her kids. Not an unfamiliar story but very British/Oz humor, some quirky characters, fun stuff.

-Jason "I'm absolutely gobsmacked that this is at 40% on Rotten Tomatoes... how did 40% of critics see this and think it was worthwhile? All of my critic friends hated it" EvansLebron is not much of an actor and, frankly, he’s not all that likeable in this role. But the biggest sin is the Warner IP that is constantly being thrown at you.

Were there snakes on the train?
That movie is 100% on my bucket list, I used to see it on the shelf at Blockbuster all the time when I would go in.

He was pretty good in Trainwreck... but in this film everything is either flat or forced. And, as I said, he's really unlikeable for the most part. He's a bad parent who intimidates his kids and does not listen to what they are trying to tell him. I'm shocked that his people thought this script was a good idea.

However, it looks like the reviews didn't matter much to consumers, who gave it an 81% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and an "A-" on CinemaScore.

Have people watched No Sudden Move? Thoughts? I thought it was well acted but somewhat tough to follow (although admittedly I watched it late night when I was tired) and the fisheye lens filming was a little distracting.
