  • Rocketman. I wanted to love it. But because it kind of had a rushed ending, I only really liked it. Acting is excellent. Some of the choreography is really good. And it makes you want to listen to his music for the weekend. B+ for me.

      Solid review. I give the movie a B+ as well, only it has taken me longer than a weekend to get Elton John from playing in my head. Wish they would have used Elton John's voice and just lipped synced his songs since I think it is difficult to cover his music and do it justice.

      • Yesterday. Great idea for a movie. I'm bummed the ratings are just so so, but I think I'll take it in.

        • A Toy Story 4- Pretty good, standard Pixar fare.

            We saw that yesterday. I thought it was so-so. Not enough use of the secondary characters.

                Probably. I got the sense they were trying to wrap up the franchise and give Woody some finality and character resolution since Hanks and Allen probably won't be at it forever (except there will be a Toy Story 5, I bet).

                  I love the premise of this movie. I would probably roll the dice and see it, hoping it delivers on the clever premise.

                    Same. It was the ‘worst’ Toy Story, but damn if still didn’t like it. B for me.

                      No it wasn’t. That was TS3.

                        100% wrong.

                        FTR, here’s the ranking:
                        1. TS2
                        2. TS
                        3. TS 3
                        4. TS 4

                        • I liked TS4. Made me laugh.

                          And think of the killing that Disney will make selling sporks wrapped in pipe cleaner for $20 a pop.

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                              I thought the first half was good and then it became a mess. I was hoping for better. One thing, in the trailer they had Jack sitting on James Cordons couch singing a song and then he says he has two gentlemen here that claim they wrote the songs and it shows four legs, in the movie it didn't show him singing to anybody on the couch and it showed the four legs but it never did anything with that part after that. Did I fall asleep for five minutes and miss something?

                                It was a dream/nightmare sequence. I bet the deleted scenes will have him on Corden singing "something in the way she moves"
