It was alright. I am just not a fan of badly dubbed movies.

Seeing iTunes promoting it as ‘available to rent’ … reminds me that I saw it at the time and the best thing about it is that Liam is NOT using his ‘particular set of skills’ … other than that … nice enough.

If you enjoyed the first - you'll enjoy this one. It is what you might expect. Just wondering if Hemsworth is trying to compete with Keanu on most 'kills per minute' in a movie.

Talk about ‘phoning it in .. not my choice to watch and would not recommend, particularly if you know the Mamma Mia stories … both of which I have not seen, but I think the two sentence summary of the first would be identical to this one.

It's got Robert DeNiro in the main role ... slam dunk - right? Sadly - no.

Three stars is generous, because I didn't get through it. Just spotted it on AppleTV as a promo - so thought I would try it out, since I never saw it the first time round. (I know I know). Maybe it just hit me wrong?

I watched it in the theater when it came out. Love Tucci and this did not disappoint. (Just thought it was time to post a positive review - because I have been sharing some clangers recently.)

I used to love the Asterix comic books. But have never really enjoyed the films. So not sure why I thought this time it would be different.

Yeah … no .. despite it including two of my favorite actors.

Not to be confused with other films called Mother’s Day … I’ve not seen all of them, but none can be as bad as this one.

It’s JLo, so it wasn’t  going to be bad … and it wasn’t … though predictable … like the bad guy who never dies. Interesting that director and writers all women.

Maybe it should be 4 stars? Great little bit of history ... But I don’t know the real story well enough to know how much poetic license was employed. I liked the graphic reminders (and associated pixel resolutions) spread throughout the film, that were so mind blowing to everyone at the time. I also had no idea that Maxwell was so involved in the story.

Does the fact the we started watching it - had to stop half way through and still haven't yet felt inspired to go back and finish it tell you anything?

I’m not a big Hanks fan .. often skipping over his movies … ‘because’. So glad I didn’t jump this one. Just lovely. And yes I shed a tear or three. 

Maybe there is something about having low expectations before watching a movie?

The usual fodder … even ‘names’ can’t change some movies.

Cute. Predictable and scenes lifted directly from John Wick,  The Fast and Furious franchise, Tarantino’s catalogue .. and more … all of them failing to better the originals. Then again, I didn’t pay anything to see it (except my time).

I think Ryan Reynolds has decided to make a new business out of quick cameos.

Also delighted to see 10 seconds of John Cho (Cowboy Bebop)

Long time since I watched this - but I have watched it more than once - which is rare for me ... Came to mind this morning as I was reading the news and my mind revisiting the theme song and then thinking about Schlesinger - and then Timothy Hutton and of course the amazing Sean Penn. Well worth a **focused** watch.

With Netflix holding back on the 6th series of Better Call Saul ... What's a boy to do? Murder Mystery 2 was floating around and I had never seen the first ... so decision made.

It would be unfair to say it was a total disaster, though I am definitely NOT a Sandler fan .. I do kinda like Aniston .. So who knows I thought ... Maybe she could lift him up?

She couldn’t. (Though he did a pretty good job of bringing her down!) .. Stamp was another I had high hopes for ... but not to be the case, which becomes clear should you elect to give this a whirl.

But there was a saving grace in the ’Maharajah’ .. Played by one Adeel Akhtar .. What a spectacular part ... What a spectacular performance .. Just not enough of him.

Salvation, though the rating didn’t move.
