One Battle After Another. If Sean Penn doesn’t win best supporting man that would be a travesty.
So
Frankenstein, visually a good movie, it’s alright. Guilermo Del Toro’s films are always good viewing.
The one movie I really liked was
Roofman with Channing Tatum. Surprising good movie.
One Battle After Another: One my list - but that's a long one
Frankenstein: Well done, but such a familiar tale, it would be hard to surprise me.
Roofman: Entertaining, and supposedly fairly true to life.
Don’t worry about the length of the movie, it doesn’t drag. It’s very entertaining.
I really liked Kirsten Dunst in Roofman.
Agreed about Frankenstein, a bit too familiar.

Not worried about a 3hour+ movie dragging, just finding the time.

Old Dads was pretty funny and many here may relate more than they care to admit

I did t make it past the 15 mark of Frankenstein. So done with the whole Marvel Universe and this film seemed like another rendition.

Noted.
I’m on the same page with Marvel.
Was fun for the first while.
The onscreen chemistry between RDJ, Hemsworth, Cheadle, Johansson, and Evans, was great. Renner, Ruffalo, and Sam L, Hiddleston, were welcome supports. Cumberpatch as Dr Strange also great. Ultimately a great mix in all their roles for the massive collaborations of the Avengers movies.
Same with the Guardians crew surrounding Pratt and Zoe.
The “universe” additions that began with Anthony Mackie, and who were eventually tagged to carry it forward after Endgame, were less than.
The should have stopped there and done something else rather than try to carry the threads forward.
