Annie,
I can't agree with his loves Lobster was too weird even with Colin and Rachel it got rough. Witch was too flat and slow, and there is NO WAY ON EARTH Love and Friendship can be in top 10 - so dull and I love Kate B and watched it for her.
GOE - not a surprise ding, not the best, but not dull Gerry supporting role was the best in it along with Nicolaj. It no way compared to rock bottom sci-fi wreck ID Resurgence.
Are you going to see Nocturnal Animals? I loved
it, but it's a thriller that divides opinion.
My must see on big screen is Passengers -

KeepersBurns,
GOE- for what it was, wasn't all that bad. It was just jarring the first time Gerard spoke but I love it when he speaks naturally
Probably not re:Animals I did very much like Ford's A Single Man but Adams I just can't stomach her (Renner saved Arrival for me)
did see Miss Sloane and Chastain was very good- will see her next up in Zookeepers Wife with Daniel Bruhl whom I like
Passengers isn't performing well but do let me know if you like it
Next up for me
Silence/Hidden Figures
Saw A Monster Calls and Felcity Jones was incredible. The entire cast was perfect and everyone in the theatre cried at it's end
(I kept wondering why Sheridan/Villenueve/Ford/don't reach out to Butler for these sorts of roles- why he doesn't approach them. Maybe he's just not motivated enough
It's ashame really as I like to think he has it in him to deliver an emotional performance in the vein of Dear Frankie/The Jury)
EDIT- Butler has 2 films on this list I don't agree but sheesh
