Watched on Youtube TV, 6.14.2019 - DirectorF. Gary GrayStarsChris HemsworthTessa ThompsonKumail NanjianiThe MIB tackle a mole in their organization.Watched it with Moss, I guess that is only reason to watch it beside the big hitting name "MIB".
Watched it at cinema. 6.15.2019 - DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsLeonardo DiCaprioJonah HillMargot RobbieBased on the true story of Jordan Belfort, from his rise to a wealthy stock-broker living the high life to his fall involving crime, corruption and the federal government.Fantastic acting, good pictures. Wolfie for life, big people taking risks, smartass is the potentate of Wall Street.
Watched on Youtube TV, 6.16.2019 - DirectorJohn HughesStarsMolly RingwaldAnthony Michael HallJustin HenryA girl's "sweet" sixteenth birthday is anything but special: her family forgets about it, and she suffers from every embarrassment possible.learned some saying from the old days. Classic and teenage dream. A little stereotyping regard Chinese International student. Well, it is still good.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.17.2019 - DirectorMax NicholsStarsMiles TellerLio TiptonJessica SzohrA snowstorm forces two people who made an online connection to unwillingly extend their one-night stand as the blizzard goes through the night.I personally learned a lot of stuff about communication/sex. A good love story in my opinion.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.18.2019 - DirectorJonathan LynnStarsEileen BrennanTim CurryMadeline KahnSix guests are anonymously invited to a strange mansion for dinner, but after their host is killed, they must cooperate with the staff to identify the murderer as the bodies pile up.A blow-minded show with three ends. Long lasting fame telling truth in this case.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.19.2019 - DirectorJohn KrasinskiStarsEmily BluntJohn KrasinskiMillicent SimmondsA family struggles for survival in a world where most humans have been killed by blind but noise-sensitive creatures. They are forced to communicate in sign language to keep the creatures at bay.it is quite a different experience for me. absolute silence sometimes makes me want to watch how much time left here. But the plot becomes interesting when Father and Son left for gathering. The second half of the film is mind-blowing and nervous. I especially like the fact that Father and Mother are actual couples in real life. Anyway, I like it.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.20.2019 - DirectorJosh CooleyStarsTom HanksTim AllenAnnie PottsWhen a new toy called "Forky" joins Woody and the gang, a road trip alongside old and new friends reveals how big the world can be for a toy.my earliest memories of toy story – my dad bought a DVD of Toy Story… I have a buzzyear toy myself… and Toy Story 3 has a pink bear as boss. Back to this fourth work under the same name, I shall say Pixar is always making great jobs. This film is well-made with amazing plots. Two bunnies are the greatest side characters in my opinion. They made me and Moss laugh like kids. My favorite character is still Woody, who is willing to accept his “lost” at the end of the story. Wish he can live happily with his love! Salute to Pixar and the dude who always makes miracles.
Watched in cinema, 6.21.2019 - DirectorClare KilnerStarsDermot MulroneyDebra MessingJack DavenportSingle-girl anxiety causes Kat Ellis to hire a male escort to pose as her boyfriend at her sister's wedding. Her plan, an attempt to dupe her ex-fiancé, who dumped her a couple years prior, proves to be her undoing.funny but not that funny. Bland plot.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.22.2019 - DirectorLuke GreenfieldStarsEmile HirschNicholas DownsElisha CuthbertA teenager's dreams come true when a former porn star moves in next door and they fall in love.I shall say it is a great story. We should do something special, not swimming in Dr. Barbara Snyder's swimming pool of course.
Watched on xBox, 6.23.2019 - DirectorGuy RitchieStarsWill SmithMena MassoudNaomi ScottAladdin, a kind thief, woos Jasmine, the princess of Agrabah, with the help of Genie. When Jafar, the grand vizier, tries to usurp the king, Jasmine, Aladdin and Genie must stop him from succeeding.great music. Will Smith did a great job. very different from the original story I read many years ago.
Watched in cinema, 6.24.2019 - DirectorAlfred HitchcockStarsCary GrantGrace KellyJessie Royce LandisA retired jewel thief sets out to prove his innocence after being suspected of returning to his former occupation.Long lasting legends. Salute to both Grace Kelly and Cary Grant.
Watched on Amazon Prime, 6.25.2019 - DirectorRonald NeameStarsGregory PeckJane GriffithsRonald SquireAs part of a bet, two aristocrats offer a penniless American a loan, without telling him that the amount is £1,000,000 in the form of a single banknote.I quite like Gregory Peck, no one can success easily I guess. this is also a film made from the Great Mark Twain's book. Salute!
Watched on Amazon Prime Video, 6.26.2019 - DirectorLars KlevbergStarsTim MathesonBen DaonZahra AndersonA mother gives her 13-year-old son a toy doll for his birthday, unaware of its more sinister nature.er.. I think it is well made. Watched it with Moss at theater. I am not a fun of horror movie especially ones with easy plots.
Watched in cinema, 6.27.2019 - DirectorCatherine HardwickeStarsKristen StewartRobert PattinsonBilly BurkeWhen Bella Swan moves to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, she falls in love with Edward Cullen, a mysterious classmate who reveals himself to be a 108-year-old vampire.I heard the name of Twilight like many years ago, and I think it is a great commercial success since it has like 5 movies under franchise name. Good story and beautiful actors.
Watched on Hulu Movie, 6.28.2019 - DirectorGene FeldmanSuzette WinterStarsGrace KellyRichard KileyJean DalrympleA biography of American actress Grace Kelly from her early days as an aspiring actress to her death as Princess of Monaco.well, five days ago I watched "To Catch a Thief" by Grace Kelly and I learnt a lot of story of her because she eventually is Her Serene Highness Princess Grace. It just raised my interests that how an amazing actress has such a fairy-tale-like life. I think Hollywood really put efforts in making this documentary back to 1980s, and this surely brings me more images of Grace Kelly. I think I will go back watch her other movies that made during '50s, the ones made Grace Kelly a long lasting figure of Hollywood culture.
Watched on Prime Video, 6.29.2019 - DirectorBrian HerzlingerStarsDanielle C. RyanTrevor DonovanGaladriel StinemanA reality TV star leaves Hollywood and finds herself in Amish country where she must decide between staying in her newfound reality or returning to her old one.it is a great story. I actually like the whole plot, about a girl finding herself. I guess we all need to follow our heart.
Watched on Prime Video, 6.30.2019 - DirectorKyle NewacheckStarsAdam SandlerJennifer AnistonLuke EvansA New York cop and his wife go on a European vacation to reinvigorate the spark in their marriage, but end up getting framed and on the run for the death of an elderly billionaire.haha, it is a film that I could not stop laughing. I actually paused it for laughing. good story and I could not tell who is murder until the very end. director good job. I quite like Shiori Kutsuna from this movie.
Watched on iFun TV, 7.1.2019 - DirectorJeffrey BlitzStarsAnna KendrickLisa KudrowCraig RobinsonEloise, having been relieved of maid of honor duties after being unceremoniously dumped by the best man via text, decides to attend the wedding anyway, only to find herself seated with five fellow unwanted guests at the dreaded Table 19.it is a good comedy for the first 20 minutes and then it starts to become stressful and painful. every one who sits on table 19 is unwanted or broken heart. I am glad that it is a happy ending, while it reminds me of life. Be brave and ready.
Watched on iFun TV, 7.2.2019 - DirectorPaul FeigStarsAnna KendrickBlake LivelyHenry GoldingStephanie is a single mother with a parenting vlog who befriends Emily, a secretive upper-class woman who has a child at the same elementary school. When Emily goes missing, Stephanie takes it upon herself to investigate.fantastic movie with amazing acting. Shout out to Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively and Henry Golding. there are just sharp turns in plots constantly. great enigma to guess what or why.
I like it. I know it also has a great box record. I think last time I enjoy watching thriller was many years ago David Fincher's Gone Girl(2014). Appreciate!
Watched on iFun TV, 7.3.2019 - DirectorSusan JohnsonStarsLana CondorNoah CentineoJanel ParrishA teenage girl's secret love letters are exposed and wreak havoc on her love life.Truly comfortable story. I guess every girl has this kind of feeling. i think be brave is always a great way to start. well, it is bullshit.. what I mean is just try it out.
Watched on Netflix, 7.4.2019 - DirectorCristina JacobStarsIoachim CiobanuAggy K. AdamsAdina StetcuA teenager named Andrei transitions from a teenager into an adult.Watched with Moss. We did not get what is the end telling us. I just do not accept this whole thing is a "dream"
