Seen any good movies recently?

Saturday evening I was scrolling Twitter on the couch, got up to get a beer, came back and there was something on TV. I looked back at my phone for a couple minutes, and my wife says, "Are you watching this? I put it on for you." First of all... what? I assumed you were watchign one of your doctor shows or something, since I never said anything about a movie, and certainly didn't request a specific one, but I'll play... what is it? "It's called the Watchman." I figured maybe she meant The Watchmen, which I've seen and enjoyed before, but I can't imagine any scenario where she would have intentionally selected that.

So I put the phone down, immediately notice that I absolutely don't recognize this movie at all, and then maybe a minute later the opening credits displayed the movie title: The Marksman. Good job, good effort. Anyjizz /Joe List this is I believe a Netflix original, starring Liam Neeson as an ex-marine operating a barely-surviving cattle ranch in some Arizona border town. He encounters a mother and child trying to flee from the cartel through his land. A gun battle ensues; the mom and one of the cartel guys are killed; and he's left to fend for the kid. His hot stepdaughter is a border patrol agent, so he enlists her help initially but then realizes the cartel will kill the kid if he doesn't take matters into his own hands. So he spends the rest of the movie trying to get the kid to safety. The cartel guys, meanwhile, never saw Taken apparently so they chase him halfway across the country trying to avenge their fallen brother. You can probably piece the rest of it together.

It was entertaining enough, but the plot had some holes the size of LDOT's mom. Soft rec if you're desperate to watch something, but please temper your expectations.

Back to School is great, and if I can step on my Fletch take a bit from earlier in the week, Dangerfield’s funniest movie.

I agree with Wolf, but Back to School is pretty damn good.

A guy from work liked Nope. I wont see it either way (nothing will top the Fuck The Police nwa scene in Us), but just another perspective
