I enjoyed it. As far as video game movies go it is one of the better ones imo.
I agree with most of the takes in there. Good popcorn flick, I got to the part where everybody showed up in real life and must have dozed off after that. Only scene I didn't like at all was the club scene, because it was as cornball as you could get.Click below for my thoughts. Preview isn't my post.

I watched Pacific Rim this past Sunday. It was terrible! I loved it! Wasn’t as good as the first and def lacked that GDT touch, but it was a fun shot your brain off popcorn movie.unionvgf.com
Ready Player One...
No I'm not. I'm disagreeing with your comment that I quoted. I have no opinion on this movie although I'm not expecting much from it. Ok, I see. But the core of what I am saying, is that I mainly disagree with that review's assessment that the movie has no heart. There's actually a lot more of...
Greenland, IMO, was pretty awesome. Sure, you can rip apart the far fetched story, but I couldn't help but be glued to the end. I hope there is a part 2.
Just watched it - it's flat out insane. Reminds me of Falling Down but 100x more insanity.
Wonder Woman 1984: Better than expected!
Gave me what I wanted: a drop-dead gorgeous Wonder Woman who kicked some butt. Then it gave me something I didn't expect: a plot that was at first confusing, but ended up being pretty clever, along with two villains that were interesting. The ending was anti-climactic, but I guess you can't have it all (wink wink).

Wonder Woman 1984 - I thought it was 2:30 hours of crap. Didn't enjoy any of it. Action scenes were very meh. The Antagonists are garbage. The story is boring and nonsenseical.
Total Recall - 4K UHD Disc - If you still buy 4K bluray, this one is definitely worth the purchase. It's been on sale via Amazon at around $13 for several weeks now. Fantastic 4K image quality, HDR, and detail. Additionally, the new Dolby Atmos sound mix is excellent. The set surprisingly contains a huge number of special features, including multiple feature length documentaries. Impressive to see great total package bluray sets like this for such great prices in 2020.
The Curse of Frankenstein - Bluray - Brand new blu-ray set from Warner Archive, got this from my parents for Christmas. 3 new remastered aspect ratio prints of the movie (relating to the aspect ratios of the countries they were originally released in), and a full disc of excellent brand new features about the movie and Hammer films. If you enjoy classic horror / monster movies, this is the one that started it all for Hammer. Great to see it get such an excellent set full of entertaining and informative special features and options.

Possessor - Interesting, crazily violent sci-fi movie directed by David Cronenberg's son. Some great cinematography and interesting plot ideas, but overall I was expecting a bit more from it. It's showing up all over tons of best of 2020 lists though, many others seem to like it considerably more than I did. Worth a watch.
Dave Made A Maze:
Decent indy movie on Prime. Lot's of creativity with elaborate set design that has and excuse to be low budget cardboard.
Basically, Dave in the story is creatively stifled and one weekend starts a creative project that turns into a literal Labirynth in his apartment ( it's bigger on the inside ) including a Minotaur. The explainations for this are vague which is mostly okay except..........
Minor Spoiler: some people don't make it out of the maze at the end and it's not quite clear what their fate is so this bugs me a little bit.
