watched it last night... twas... strange. Great plot, but the ending was a bit soft, IMO. Like it didn't know what to do. But overall, I liked it. 

 

I've been looking forward to it. Was a bit surprised to see it suddenly appear on Netflix. Hopefully will get time to watch it tonight. I've heard the book is pretty good, too, but it's the first in a trilogy so that might explain the soft ending. Don't know if they will make more movies, though, as I don't think it's going to make a lot of money.

Some background on it and lack of commercial success here;

Annihilation (2018) 6/10.

 

I watched it and while I thought it was pretty and had some interesting ideas, I nearly fell asleep. Also, some of the characters' decisions made no sense to me. I sort of understand why some people loved it but I'm not one of them.

Somebody help me. I'm knee deep in nostalgia movies. These are the titles I've watched recently and they're all 10/10. You here me?

10/10

Busy watching The Last Boy Scout. If I remember correctly, I wasn't allowed to watch it in '91. Enjoying it so far.
