First Viewings...
nothing this week
Re-watches...
-The Living Daylights (1987) (Aug 27th 2018) - 6/10 (was a 5.5-6/10. basically the movie is solid enough but does get a little duller very late into the movie for roughly a 10-20min stretch. I like 14 out of the 25 James Bond movies but this is either my 13th or 14th rank of those I like.)
-The Iceman Interviews (2003) (DOCU) (Aug 28th 2018) - my most re-watched documentary. basically it interviews Richard Kuklinski who was a contract killer for the mafia. basically it includes the interviews with him from the early 1990's and early 2000's. he died in March 2006.
-Gotti (1996) (Aug 29th 2018) - 6/10
-Baywatch (2017) UNRATED (Aug 30th 2018) - 6/10 (my 2nd viewing and it held steady. in fact, this is the only movie outside of the Fast & Furious series ill re-watch with The Rock in it and the same with Zac Efron. they basically work well together. it's got it's funny bits and pieces to.)
p.s. in general for me... 5/10 or less = Thumbs Down. 6/10 or higher = Thumbs Up.
SIDE NOTE: I finished replaying Mafia (2002) (on PC) between Aug 23rd-27th. Aug 27th is it's 16th anniversary. I first played it back around the time it was new and replayed it here and there since. still remains my all-time #1 single player video game experience and it finishes strong. it's a masterpiece. some voice actors in this are from The Sopranos (1999-2007). the really popular, and overrated, Grand Theft Auto series can't hold a candle to the Mafia series in my book as they are decent but I have no desire to replay those unlike the Mafia series (the characters in Mafia series are just more interesting and the overall feel/tone of the games is just better etc). I plan on replaying Mafia II (2010) (on PC) soon as it's been a while since I replayed it. hell, it's been a bit too long since I replayed Mafia (2002) as, while I don't know for sure, I want to say it was probably very early in the current decade, if not later into the last decade, the last time I replayed it.

OP's...
-Rolling Thunder (1977) - 7/10 (within my Top 189 movies. it's only one of nine movies from the 1970's I score a 7/10 or higher.)
-Mona Lisa (1986) - 4/10 (it's basically crap/forgettable. I don't even remember much about it off the top of my head and even had to check IMDb to make sure I did see it)
-Taxi Driver (1976) - 5/10 (overrated. Scorsese's best in my mind... The Color of Money (1986) (8/10) which is underrated as that's the role Paul Newman is born to play which is the sequel to The Hustler (1961)(9/10).)
-Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) - 5/10 (Planes, Trains & Automobiles(7.5-8/10)/The Breakfast Club(7/10) are the only movies from Hughes that stand out even though there are some more I mildly like. with that said... I used to think Ferris was solid (about a 7-8/10) but took a solid hit on July 12th 2015 to it's current score. it's no longer worth re-watching anymore.)
-Defendor (2009) - 5/10 (forgettable)
-The Iceman Interviews (2003) its a good doco for sure
-Baywatch (2017) I dunno what version I saw but I did not like it and cant even remember if i finished it
