Spiderman - Homecoming
I liked it better than I thought I would. The actor playing Spiderman is charming. For me, it's the first Marvelverse movie that seems to be in the same universe a the other movies.
A solid B.

So, would you suggest us this movie for viewing?

How can I recommend unless i know other people's taste? Some people will love it and others would hate it. I'll give a bit of a description that'll help other people figure it out for themselves.

Menashe.

This is the first feature film made in decades that's primarily in Yiddish.

It's a drama about a Chasidic widower who is trying to maintain a relationship with his son while living in a community where it's not possible to be a single father. My tastes are toward science-fiction/fantasy/horror but it was nice to see a movie in my mother tongue.

If you like drama you'll enjoy this movie. It has a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes.

A good enough thriller about "Events repeating itself, only this time with a different end result. 6.5/10

It
8.5/10

It was creepy but the scare factor isnt that high since the trailers have shown the creepiest scenes of the movie. Movie also feels to long since they had to make every kid have a nightmare experience. Overall, I recommend you pipz watch it.

I also enjoyed IT and recommend it as a good creepy movie.
I'm curious about part 2 which will completely recast the characters - except for Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

Girls Trip, and I can never look at grapefruits the same way ever again. 10/10

I saw few movies during the weekend

1. Pored mene (2015)
The story is more like The Breakfast Club (1985), a class of kids stuck in the school for a night. Tell stories and life of almost each of them, about friendship, peer pressure, love, families and of cause gay life and closeted student. I like it, gave it 7/10.

2. Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)
I know this movie will have this ridiculous story that a man that made from flesh and bones would never survive that kind of action. But, I can resist to watch it because its a freaking franchise. Gave it a fair 5/10.

3. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)
Entertaining, though the story a little bit predictable. Johnny Depp character is the whole heart of the movie. Without him, its dead. 6/10

Really? That movie is getting hammered on RottenTomatoes, and the critics appear to loathe this movie. Why do you like it?

Annabelle: Creation.

It was okay. Worth watching once. 6/10

The Secret Kiss (2017)

The plot is similar to Drink Me (2015) minus the vampire and frontal nudities. It could have been good but somehow lacking in something which I can't exactly put into words. 4/10

Maybe a vampire and full frontal nudity?

Come to think of it, forget the vampire, must be the prolonged frontal nudity in drink me is what lacking in The Secret Kiss"

I liked it cause i knew what i was getting into before i saw it, i liked the acting and i liked that it made you think even after it was finished. It was also very allegorical and most people didn't expect that.

Agree with you on that and I would rate it 7/10

The Little Hours (2017)

Movie based on The Decameron (1971) the segment of Deaf and Mute man with the nuns. Funny enough 6/10

Zeitgeist

Flatliners (2017). It wasn't as good as the original, but hey, it did well to compensate for the lack of Julia Roberts.

Mother. 8/10

Don't believe the rotten reviews. Mother is an art film, a good one that is knowingly pretentious, that was mismarketed as a horror film. I'm glad that audiences are loudly protesting against the flim (and that it's flopping) so that whoever distributed it will learn from this mistake. Mother took in eight million dollars off a 150 million budget (plus marketing).

The film is a multi-level allegory. The obvious one is that it plays as the first few books of The Bible plus Revelations but there are other surprises mixed it. There's a wicked sense of humor interwoven within the plot that people aren't talking about – the film is funny. It's also unnerving.

If you like art house cinema pick it up on DVD.

A lot of Specfic films are poorly advertised due to stereotyping.

One that jumps to mind - I know a bunch of people who went to see Arrival with certain expectations. (It's an alien invasion movie costarring Jeremy Renner.) It's about linguistics and the complexity of life.
