Yours:
Deadpool 2 8/10
I haven't seen the Super Duper cut, but I thought the theatrical one was really fun. I liked it more than the first.
Blood Simple 8/10
I remember liking it but not much else.
My Bloody Valentine (2009) 6/10
Yeah, I thought it was so-so.
Mine:
A Star is Born (2018) 8/10
I haven't seen the other versions (just parts of the Barbra Streisand one), but I liked it, the songs too, maybe it drags a bit in the middle. Lady Gaga is good, Bradley Cooper is really great. The cast is good in general, loved Sam Elliott and Andrew Dice Clay too.
The Naked Kiss 7/10
Samuel Fuller movie, about a prostitute who beats up her pimp, and escapes to a small town where she tries to rebuild her life. It's O.K., I was expecting a bit better, it gets a bit over te top. The twist is wild though, I wasn't expecting it.
Lola 8.5/10
It's Jacques Demy movie with Anouk Aimee, about a restless guy who runs into a childhood friend he was in love with his whole life, who now works as a Burlesque dancer. Loved it, loved the atmosphere. The ending is great, it's happy, but kind of ambiguous about it...
A Fish Called Wanda 8.5/10
Love it, it holds up so well for me, it's really funny.
Kevin Kline and John Cleese are fantastic. Loved Jamie Lee Curtis. 
The Naked Kiss - You liked it more than I did it seems 4/10
A Fish Called Wanda - not seen this in a very long time, I remember liking it but not sure how well it would fare today 6.5/10
I enjoyed it, in the end, although I prefer other Sam Fuller movies. I hadn't seen Wanda, in quite some time either, it really held up for me. I love the Monty Python, in general, so...
Any interest in A Star is Born?
