Took a week off work and managed to watch 1 movie every day.
Prince of Darkness - Amazing movie. It might actually now be my 2nd most favorite horror movie next to Halloween. Creepy, funny, awesome. Great soundtrack. 8/10
They Live - Still fun. It takes awhile to get going but once it does, you are in for a ride. 7/10
Brave - Starts off great but quickly turns into a kids movie when it could have been something special. Still, lovely visuals and charming. 6/10
The Jungle Book - Incredible visuals, good story and as charming as the cartoon. I do wish it had a bit more emotion and a deep message though. 7/10
Die Hard - First time viewing. Incredible movie. Virtually flawless. Easily one of the best action movies I have ever seen and every plot device and action has a reason and payoff. 9/10
Predator - Probably the first time I've seen this all of the way through. Fun, over the top, ridiculous and great. 7/10
Rambo - Last Blood (International Cut) - Finally got to see the extended cut. Different opening and several scenes added throughout the movie. I think it's the superior version and adds some addition layers to the Rambo character as well as fleshes out the villains. 7/10
Terminator - Dark Fate - Honestly, not as bad as the internet hyped it to be. I actually enjoyed it for what it was. Linda slipped back into Sarah perfectly and had some great dialogue. Arnold was also entertaining in his role. Not a great movie and I had a problem with the over the top CG but as a modern sci-fi action movie, it was perfectly entertaining. 6/10
Doctor Sleep - Saw it in the theater and liked it. 2nd viewing held up and made me like it more. Rose the Hat is the best movie villain in years and the movie manages to do justice to both the book and Kubrick film. It's not perfect but it's a miracle as good as it is being a sequel to the Shining. 8/10
