CONFESS, FLETCH
Struggling actor Tom Hamm nails it as Fletch (great line delivery and snark); great performances by everyone involved really, even the one scene wonders.
I liked this better than the Chevy Chase outings tbph.
It was great that in the end Fletch didn't turn out to be the smartest guy in the room but, he did get the smartest ppl thinking outside the box in regards to the case.

I mean, I agree that it has a certain amount of entertainment value. But so much of the dialogue is cringy AF, and the terrible plot lines about saving humanity from climate change and autism being an evolutionary step is just embarrassingly idiotic and nonsensical.

The Invitation (2022) 2/10
Upon this review this gave me dejavu----Ready or Not 2019, this is the exact same film only with a few slight differences. In Ready or Not the rich families owe their wealth to the devil. In the movie, The Invitation the rich families owe their wealth to Dracula. So, I must give this movie a 2/10. Nothing original. Very basic elements of a horror story, no real story here.

^^^I'm w. you on most of this (suuuuuch an awful plot) though I had to erase the cheesy gif as I don’t believe in that idiocracy. 👆
Yeah, I use the Cancelled gif facetiously. I think it should be ridiculed, not cancelled. Hell, that's the very essence of bad movie nights that I have with my friends! If everything was cancelled there would be nothing to watch! 😂
A Thousand Years of Longing
8/10
Good movie. Orginal story, good cgi. Good acting.
When it comes to shooting ancient scenes and backdrops a lot of these movies have the same narrative. You see this in movies like Aladdin, American Gods, immortals---a classical almost romantic take on what ancient worlds looked like. The stylizing is the same.

I'm looking forward to watching that when I get a chance to with my wife. From Mad Max genius George Miller. And I happen to really like Idris Elba.

You say genius, but the last Mad Max was honestly pretty bad.
Then again that series peaked at The Road Warrior, and I felt Beyond Thunderdrome was their version of Rocky 4, e.g. inferior to Rocky 1, 2, and 3 in spite of decent moments.
I'm all about original scripts so will see it for that.
