    Let's Talk Movies #36 - 2020 - Yep it is a new decade

    The reviews from critics’ early screenings are really promising. If A24 spent $60-70 million on Marty Supreme, then they probably need to make $120-140 million at the box office to break even. Which should be doable.

    Yesterday, I saw Sentimental Value in the theater. Being that it is in limited release in the USA and it's not being released in the UK until December 26, I will put my review in spoiler. Are you a fan of Joachim Trier's films (The Worst Person in the World)? Have you been a fan of Stellan...

    This or That - Round 42

    NAY - I liked the first film, but this second film proved my opinion that they should have made this one ~3-3.5 hour film with an intermission, like The Brutalist, but as a whole musical. Do you actually buy…….bottled water? YES 👍 or EH, sometimes on travel or NOPE 😒

    I saw Nuremberg today. My score: 8.5/10. This film is wonderfully shot and the dialogue is superb - especially between Göring (Russell Crowe) and Dr. Kelley (Rami Malek) and the cross examination at the trial between Göring and Justice Jackson (Michael Shannon). I think the film does a terrific...

    I would say the scariness in the visuals is about the same. But the overall story is a bit darker, which I guess is also the case with the second act of the stage musical (which I haven’t seen).

    I also watched The Running Man today in theaters. My overall rating: 7.0/10. If you dystopian action films with a lot of gore, you'll enjoy this. But the plot in the first thirty minutes felt a bit empty even though it got a bit better afterwards. And a movie can't be overall bad when Coleman...
