It's the best picture I've seen since "No Country for Old Men" and it's a bit reminiscent of it too.
I kid you not, this is GREAT film; a seemingly simple story of desperation on its surface, but actually a layered and nuanced allegorya true gem!
Jeff Bridges' best supporting actor nomination is well deserved. And they should've nominated Ben Foster (frim Six Feet Under) as well.
Rent it today on On Demand ppv (Charter) and I promise you you'll be glad you did. Outstanding film! 9/10

Thanks for the offer. I've only seen two of this year's Oscar contenders, so far.

She's definitely seen more
new
movies than I have in 10 years. Heck, the last time I was at a theatre was 2003 or was it 2005? For the 1st "Hulk" (the boring one). And it was the only film I walked out on. Zzzzzzz

How cool would it be if we all lived near one another. We could all go see a movie together and then have a nice pot luck dinner afterwards.

They were good. I believe the subject matter helped to move along Hidden Figures. It was an interesting subject matter and well told. Manchester by the Sea could be a bit slow at times but it was a nice story as far as sappy goes.
The Secret Life Of Pets was just as expected, very cute. I didn't expect it to be an Oscar contender but it's one of those feel good movies.
I've seen less in 2016 than in 2015, lol. Much of them were seen outside the theaters, via a service or whatever. -

I just noticed Secret Life of Pets is available on PPV on demand. Since it's only $3 and i missed it in the theaters, i figured i'd give it shot.
Thanks!

Cakey,
please tell me about Deep Water Horizon. Is there a good story & character development? Or is it mostly a special effects driven spectacle?
I guess what I'm asking is does it have "heart"?
