When We First Met

This movie is getting horrible reviews on metacritic, but my wife and I enjoyed it.  It's a mindless journey through time with an end result that is not conventional.  I had a few laughs and had no problem getting through it's much appreciated 97 minute runtime.   Recommend.

Chris Rock: Tamborine

It's an interesting introspective on what Chris Rock has been up to, turns out it's a lot of adulting.  I appreciated his personal journey through child raising, divorce and battling other personal demons.  It was indeed funny, but it goes deeper than the laughs.  Caution: 1000 F-Bombs.  Recommend.

Jurassic World

Jurassic Wold, another nostalgia play, delivers a movie that feels like it was written by a child recalling what his dad told him about the first Jurassic Park movie.  It’s just bad.  Pass.

Beauty and the Beast

This is the second live action remake of Disney animated classics, and much like The Jungle Book, it’s equally well done.  I’m all aboard the train that says Hollywood needs to quit banking on nostalgia, but at the same time, I’m a sucker for it.  The scenery (likely all CG) is beautiful, well acted and cast.  Recommend.

Concussion

Will Smith plays a Nigerian Doctor ... that's weird right?  I really didn't know much about this movie, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.  I've said it before but it's always nice to learn a little something when watching a movie.  As a football fan this film was quite informative, and if I take it all as gospel, then the NFL has a real problem on it's hands.  Of course there are two sides to every story, and I haven't done the research to see how far this film stretches to portray the NFL as the bad guy.  All that aside, it was an entertaining film with a love story mixed in for the ladies.  Recommend.
