We watched Kimi this weekend. I thought it was an above average film until the end... worth watching? If you're looking for a 90 min film, yes.

Rewatched The Dark Knight Rises. First time I’ve seen it with my current speaker setup. I was very impressed with the audio.

Still one we revisit from time to time. Fantastic movie and a A/V treat!

Saw X and Inside Out 2 last night. Polar opposites but both enjoyable.

How was Inside Out 2? I’ve heard the movie itself is great, but how about the A/V?

The Beekeeper. It was worth a watch, nothing more.

Jason Statham movies (for me) have become "if you've seen one, you've seen the last ten."

It's not quite as bad as Steven Seagal making his B movie run, though.

The concept for the movie was interesting to me tbh. I'm sure it has been used at some point in time but I'd never heard of it. If it hasn't been used then whoever came up with it is brilliant.

As for Statham, yeah he's a bit of a struggle since Snatch. But I think he fits in this one.

I moved all those posts over to the TV Series thread.

I mentioned previously that I rewatched The Dark Knight Rises recently. That was on Blu-ray. I just picked up the trilogy on 4K, as it's on sale right now at Amazon. I'm excited to check out the uptick in resolution and HDR between my old Blu-ray and the new 4Ks!

I just watched the Watchers on Kscape last night and I was very happy with it despite some negative reviews. I know many get cold feet with any Shyamalan films after the Sixth Sense and I get that. That film set the bar pretty high.

I think his daughter did well with this release.
