Super Sweet Movie Discussion Thread

My son (in EMS) and I watched Code 3 last night. @Muppet , didn't you put that up on here already? I enjoyed it. It had some groaners but I think did a fair job depicting some of the struggles and feelings of folks in EMS. I'll be honest, it did trigger me a couple times, which I did not enjoy.

Wasn't me but I'd watch it. I remember when Bringing Out The Dead came out 25 years ago.

I was newer but now, I get it.

Some of the cases and patients are caricatures, stereotypes pushed to the limit to show extremes, but they address the BS we all see and hear ('what's the worst thing you've ever seen?'), and the reflections on relationships and responding to calls and how you feel is very much spot on.
 
The Housemaid, in theaters now.

Who is it for? Basic white bitches
Who is it also for? Men married to basic white bitches because arguing over a movie just ain't worth it.

The movie stars Sydney Sweeney's boobs attached to a down-on-her-luck 20-something who just needs a job. So, she hires on to be the title character for a rich family where everyone has their secrets. Also appearing are people you've seen before but don't know their names because you also don't care. Yes, you get to see Syd naked along with a few bouncing down the stairs shots. Absolute cinema.

Anyway, it is a thriller so it has the usual, if predictable, twists and turns. based on a book I don't care about from an author I've never heard of, the story is solid enough. Casting Sydney Sweeney's boobs was an excellent choice and those other people are good enough, I guess. Their kid is ugly though. "Porkchop around the neck for the dog to play with her" ugly.

Anyway, it is tolerable enough to keep you mildly entertained for the 2 hour runtime. Just go and keep her happy. Burn your capital on some other fight.

3 out of 5 gravy boats.

Relay on Netflix

Corporate espionage thriller with a bit of violence thrown in. Didn't think I was going to finish but was pleasantly surprised.

Guy who helps whistleblowers is contacted by woman who has a "report" that would damage multi-billion dollar biotech company's IPO. Up against corporate spooks with all the gadgets looking to silence him and his "whistleblower". Twists and turns all the way up to the end. Worth it to blow a couple hours if you're into a more down to earth Jason Bourne or Mission Impossible thriller.

3.5/5 Minneapolis Daycare Centers

You had me at Sydney naked
 
Sinners by Michael B. Jordan (Creed, Black Panther) set in 1920's Mississippi. Jordan plays twin brothers setting up and running a club. The costar is a preacher's son who wants to be a blues musician. The plot is the club's opening night, the blues kid, and some vampire stuff. Rather well done, solid ending, fairly straight forward film. The acting is solid and the plot is mostly predictable, but I enjoyed it and it lacked some of the social commentary found in his earlier films. The really good part is that it has a banger of a prequel available if anyone chooses (hopefully) to make that story.

3.5 out of 5 cases of prohibition whiskey.
 
F1: The Movie staring Brad Pitt and some people you'll recognize. A over and down the hill racer is called back for one more shot at Formula 1 glory. I'll be honest, the plot is horrible and as realistic as Top Gun or Top Gun: Maverick. Coincidently I'm sure, the director directed Top Gun: Maverick.

Familiar type of plot, nothing special, but entertaining enough. The racing scenes? The director shines through here like he did in Maverick with its flight scenes. Bangers, really, really well done, even the CGI bits. Just badass.

The plot and mechanics if you're an F1 fan...you need to suspend belief as if you think pro wrestling storylines are real. The premise, details, dialogue...Top Gun: Maverick. Do this and you'll like the film. If you can't do this, stay away. If you want pure entertainment, this isn't Maverick worthy but it tried really hard.

Bonus point for F1 fans. Lewis Hamilton was involved and it shows in two scenes: One where he leads a race and another with Roscoe (RIP). Toto Wolf is one of eleventy billion producers and makes an appearance.

3 out of 5 (only because of the racing scenes and they might push this to 3.5) crashes.
