Creed - classic Rocky flick. Very entertaining.

Kingsmen: The Secret Service. Silly and over the top but enjoyable. Pretty good brainless popcorn action movie, but definitely not family friendly, tons of violence and some sex.
Withnail & I a classic that I've wanted to see for a while. Lots of funny moments, but chuckles rather than rolling on the floor laughter. Not that I roll on the floor much these days

Trumbo
While I'm sure it was made in a very rose-tinted pro-Trumbo light, overall it worked.
Great performance from Cranston. Possibly Oscar winning.

The Professionals - last night on TCM. Good shaving scene about halfway through with Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster.
I'm looking forward to renting this one. Enjoy the Rocky movies.
I saw Jurassic World over the holiday. Really enjoyed it. Though I'd love a movie that shows how they FINALLY opened the park.
Also watched Attack of the Clones with the wife. Just as bad as the first time.....
Five Flights Up - Morgan Freeman, Diane Keaton
The wife and I watched "The Hunger Games- Mockingjay Pt 1." last night. I enjoyed it. Jennifer Lawrence 
Just came across The Rocky Horror Picture Show on HBO and couldn't turn it off. [emoji849]

I watched two movies this week that I meant to see in theaters over the summer. Terminator Genisys and Jurassic World. I love both franchises, but they're just beating a dead horse with Terminator. It was better than the 3rd and 4th installments but it should have ended with Judgement Day.
I still want to see Genisys, but expect it to be bad. Did you read any of the T2 books that were out? I believe it was a trilogy. They were surprisingly good....and should have been the next movies. How'd you feel about The Sarah Connor Chronicles?
I watched Family man. Nicholas Cage=Acting Genious. All jokes aside, I love the message.
I haven't read the books but I think I'll be checking those out now, I didn't know they existed. I have mixed feelings about the Sarah Connor Chronicles. The show started off strong but ran out of steam pretty quickly. The writers strike definitely contributed to that. It probably could have been saved if it had better casting. John Connor was just too much of a wimp. Genisys is worth watching at least once but it falls right in line with the Hollywood trend of "let's bring back the 80's and early 90's!"
The Man from UNCLE: This was a pretty fun adaptation of the old TV series. I do like that the director, Guy Ritchie, kept the setting in the early Sixties because it gave it a nice retro feel. There was a good balance of humor and action – well worth watching
Terminator Genysis: About as over-the-top as you would expect from the newest installment of the series. I did like the alternative timeline explanations, they were simple and bridged all of the continuity issues that happen when you have a bunch of earlier stand-alone movies. Plus there were some nice details within this one; from the “aging and healing Terminator” to the wearing of authentic Nike Vandals in the dept store.

Here's a link to the series I was referring to. Hope you enjoy it. And I hope it's as good as my memory seems to make it.
