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

Fantastic 4 is now on Disney+. I have to say, I'm glad I didn't spend the money to see it in theaters! Way too much physics and not enough tension and action.
 
Saw Nuremberg in theater today. First day, first show.

Well done movie. Russell Crowe is a sure bet for Best actor nomination. He absolutely carries the movie. The screenplay shows the human side of Goering, as well as the Nazi German side.

Rami Malek was just oK as the psychiatrist. I had higher expectations of him. I think he was overshadowed by Crowe, or he may have been miscast. The other psychiatrist was played by Colin Hanks (Tom Hanks’s son).other actors did well , including Michael Shannon as the Supreme Court justice(?)
He may have a shot at supporting actor nomination.

I didn’t know the story of the psychiatrist who was appointed to work with the captured Nazis.

Good adapted screenplay, editing and photography (mostly indoor).The Concentration camps scenes were harrowing.

I like movies based on history - particularly WWII

The movie shows a lot of parallels with the current situation (trying to avoid the PI forum).

Good movie. Not sure if it will be successful at the box office. There were just 4 other people in the theater with me. It was a matinee. May be there will be more people in the evening.

About 8.5/10 for me. It has very good educational value.

I was surprised that Rotten tomatoes gave it only 68. Other critics were lukewarm (just a few exceptions).
