Adventures of Captain Marvel 12 Chapter Serial - I had heard of this serial being the gold standard and it was available on Amazon Lightning Deal, so I finally picked it up. It's really good, especially the way they were able to portray his 'flying'. The actor who plays Captain Marvel is especially well cast. But it was kinda shocking because he would kill the bad guys. One guy he lifted over his head and tossed him off a ten story building! Another one he casually threw off a bridge. It was kinda great! It is a serial so they have a 'cliffhanger' for each episode. There is a commentary (with different people) on each chapter but I haven't yet listened to those. All things considered, I would give this around an 8.5/10. Yes, it is dated but still a lot of fun. And some impressive effects, too.

The Cabinet of Caligari from 1962 Although this film on the Wikipedia page was rated as " a critical and financial failure " . IMPO - I gave this most unique and wonderfully made abstract film a deserving rating of 10 here . It also had a most memorable all star cast and intriguing music scores throughout this fine film as well . I have watched this absorbing film a few times over the years and never tire of it either .

Mission: Impossible Fallout: 9/10 this and Infinity War are the movies to beat in terms of blockbusters. I highly doubt any upcoming movie this year will deliver the goods as those two did

Gone Girl
Used to be one of my favorites so I rewatched it for the first time in years to see if it held up. And it did. Aight Fincher, it’s been four years, when are you gonna make a new movie?
9/10, one of his best.

Unfriended: Dark Web.
B minus. Gets off to a good start but gets less interesting as it gets less realistic. Also, parts of it seem copped from 'Nerve.'

Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) - 9/10
The first 30-ish minutes of this movie beat the hell out of almost anything in any other action movie ever. It just does not let up for one second and it's pretty insane to watch. After that we still get a great action movie, but it starts to slip when the Mothers from the Greenplace show up.
Every action scene is beautiful, though, and I really wish they would make the sequel. Not a Furiosa spinoff; I want an actual sequel in which Max is undoubtedly the main protagonist.

Last Action Hero 7/10
Pretty good, but not Schwarzenegger's best. It's filled with so much bonkers moments.

The Departed (2006) - 10/10
Great movie. I'd like to point out that only Scorsese can pull off a movie like this or Goodfellas or Casino. Only he can make the break-neck pace, weird humor, over the top violence, nasty characters, and that arrogant nature of the whole experience all come together to create a masterpiece. So many have tried and they all have failed to mimic his style.
