First Viewings...
-Creed II (2018) (Feb 22nd 2019) - 6/10 (it's probably the worst of the series or close to it. it's decent at times but hit a weaker bit or piece here and there)
Re-watches...
-War Dogs (2016) (Feb 18th 2019) - 6/10 (my 2nd viewing and it's close to 6-6.5/10 status)
-Interview with the Vampire (1994) (Feb 19th 2019) - 5/10 (was a 8/10. it was my #1 vampire themed movie but now that shifts to the directors other movie... Byzantium (2012-2013) (6-6.5/10 ; I have seen this twice so far).)
-Once Upon a Time in America (1984) EXTENDED (Feb 20th-21st 2019(mostly 20th)) - 6/10 (was a solid 8/10 but now I only mildly like it as it has it's little moments here and there but it does tend to drag a bit given the long length of the movie and overall it's nothing special for me anymore even though I still slightly like it. but on the bright side... this director has three movies (Good Bad Ugly/Once Upon a Time in the West/For a Few Dollars More) I score a 10/10 which is the most of any director out there and makes up almost half of my 10/10's in general of which I have only eight movies total that I gave a 10/10)
-Gangs of New York (2002) (Feb 23rd 2019) - 5/10 (was a 7-7.5/10. this is pretty much my 4th viewing and it no longer holds up overall)
-The Ninth Gate (1999) (Feb 24th 2019) - 8-8.5/10 (was a solid 8/10. I decided to give it a little bump in score this time around which basically makes it within my Top 48 movies, or not much outside of my Top 20 movies. it's my 2nd favorite Johnny Depp movie behind Blow (2001). it's just got a solid mood/atmosphere to the movie, which it's solid score further assists(not many movies have a solid score but this is one that does), and my interest in it holds pretty steady throughout the movie. it's underrated for sure with a 6.7/10 average on IMDb. I am not sure how many times I have seen this over the years but I would say it's probably at least 6+ times because I got three re-watches on file and it's not a stretch to say I have seen it at least a few times before I started logging all movies which is Dec 27th 2011 to date.)
-The Matador (2005) (Feb 24th 2019) - 8/10 (one of the best comedy/drama variations (basically it's a comedy with the other stuff wrapped around it) and is my 2nd favorite Brosnan movie behind The Thomas Crown Affair (1999). a rare gem as Brosnan/Kinnear work well together and everything just works. within my Top 48 movies. it's definitely underrated at it's 6.8/10 average on IMDb)
p.s. in general for me... 5/10 or less = Thumbs Down. 6/10 or higher = Thumbs Down.
----------------------------------------------
OP's...
-Cloverfield (2008) - 5/10 (it was a okay enough one time viewing but ultimately forgettable)
