Agree completely.Gold is decent not great. Worth spending a few free hours to be entertained
Downloaded a couple of movies for my flights last week. One was a western called Hickock. Horrible. Couldn't finish it.

I'm starting this because I've kind of been wanting to start one for a while and also because I just watched one of the worst westerns I've seen in a long long time and am hopeful that this thread will stop others from wasting money on certain movies like The Last Jedi or wasting time on a western like In a Valley of Violence.
So feel free to suggest movies worth seeing and those worth avoiding, be they old or new and famous or not well known.
As to In a Valley of Violence....it's bad, just really bad. I was kind of taking it in a ho hum way grinding through it until one of the last scenes with John Travolta standing in between two gun fighters. AVOID THIS MOVIE unless you like long winded badly written badly acted laughable stupidity.
I usually refer to Rotten Tomatoes as a gauge for movies that I will see at the theater. If its anything 80% or above I will usually spend money and see the movie, anything less I will wait till it's out on DVD if then.
Having said that I broke one of my own cardinal rules and spent money on The Last Jedi. It was rated at 58% approval. I should have listened, very disappointed in that movie.
There’s still only 3 Star Wars movies to me. And darn Rogue One for officially taking Shadows of the Empire out of official canon.Same here. I figured it was just super Star Wars fans that were hating it...noooope. That's just a bad movie.
Badly written. Tremendously weird and forced humor. Couldn't care less about any of the new characters now. Still am not certain what the actual point/plot of this one was about. Just awful.
Are we supposed to talk about pron here?Tremors 1 & 2.

Saw Logan Lucky over the weekend. Fun heist movie with a great cast.
Yep, and Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Katie Holmes, plus Elvis' Grandaughter.Daniel Craig right? Been wanting to see that.
Don’t know who Elvis’ granddaughter is, but I’m guessing she’s hot.Yep, and Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Katie Holmes, plus Elvis' Grandaughter.

Subtitled in English. Terrific film and story. "Run Boy Run" tells the true story of Yoram Israel Fridman, who was smuggled out of the Warsaw Ghetto at age eight. Escaping WWII and the death camps.Good Modern Movies List

Forsaken
Comedy:
Klown
What We Do In The Shadows (you will like this one or hate it)
Foreign Films:
El Secreto De Sus Ojos
Relatos Salvajes
The Hunt
The Lives Of Others
Memories Of Murder
Timecrimes
War movies not receiving much press (both based on true stories):
Anthropoid
Against the Sun
Saw Darkest Hour and The Post recently. Both good if you like history. If not, skip Darkest Hour.
Water Diviner was great. It just came on whatever movie channel I had on during a lazy weekend and it was a treat.Hope black and white movies are acceptable
John Wayne and Robert Montgomery in "They Were Expendable" at PT Boat Skippers during the fall of the Phillipines.
A zany comedy "Arsenic and Old Lace."
And one is a little more recent "The Numbers Station."
Oh one more Russell Crowe in "The Water Diviner."
