THE DUKE Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Those sly bastards at Pixar have done it again. Took the family to see Coco, and it was great. An incredible amount of heart, some genuinely funny comedic bits, and a very good plot. Went in with low expectations based on the trailers, and loved it. Here's my Pixar ranks as of today. Finding Nemo Toy Story Inside Out Wall-E Coco Monsters Inc Toy Story 3 The Incredibles Up Toy Story 2 Cars Ratatouille Cars 3 Brave Monsters University Cars 2 Finding Dory A Bug's Life The Good Dinosaur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was such a good movie(The Big Sick). I honestly didnt know exactly what the movie was about, and that definitely helped when the story started to unfold. Very original. One of the best of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The marketing and even the title is misleading. I can bet a lot of people who saw were it were like "ooh a new horror movie is out" and went in expecting your typical horror movie and when the movie was something else entirely those people ended up hating it. *It Comes at Night - SPOILER ALERT* Agree, it was a marketing bait & switch. Decent little movie, but not epic by any means. Sort of like one small corner of the zombie apocalypse - without the zombies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devils1854 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) Three Billboards -Is close to a masterpiece. Use any overused phrase and it fits this movie. It truly is a tour de force.McDormand give us the best female performance in maybe a decade or more. Sam Rockwell will probably win his first Oscar, and deservedly so. Its going to be very hard to find a movie better than this one in 2017. Wind River -I was a little disappointed in this. I knew it was Sheridan's first work behind the camera, but he had just recently written Sicario and Hell or High Water. Jeremy Renner gave one of the best performances of his career, and the movie was enjoyable. It just needed a lot of work in the editing room and no character was given any characterization other than Renner. Top 5 of the year before the Oscar season really kicks off Three Billboards outside Ebbing, MO A Ghost Story The Big Sick It Wind River Edited November 26, 2017 by devils1854 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncosFan2010 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I say Three Billboards, and while there are some plot holes, the movie itself is held up by simply amazing acting. The primary trio (McDormand, Rockwell, Woody) are simply phenomenal. I think McDormand probably gives the best female performance I have see this year. Both McDormand and Rockwell should be up for Oscars IMO. They have been perennially underrated talents for years, especially Sam, and they need to get some recognition. Rockwell was born to be in movies, every moment he is on screen makes a movie better. I seriously love that man. He is one of the few that can be borderline slapstick without coming off as forced or over-the-top. And his ability to oscilate between comedy and rage is so impressive. Again, there was some stuff in the writing that I disliked, mostly loose ends and holes, but it was propelled by excellent performances (Except Woodies Australian wife, dear god she must have been like the wife of one of the producers or something, so bad).

That accent was horrible. Abby Cornish is Australian and I have no clue what they were going for. At times, it seemed like she was trying to do a southern accent. At other times, she was using her normal voice. It was bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched this last night, I absolutely loved it. Most of the conversations between Kumail and Ray Romano had me dying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
