Last night I watched one of the featured movies on Amazon Prime: Hypnotic, featuring Ben Affleck.
Not bad, if you like thrillers with action and plot-twists.

Which means it’s losing money. Lots of it.At a $100M budget it needs between $250M and $300M just to break even.As business venture it may make money..
And the budget was 100 million
My pleasure. Murray appears for a grand total of 2 minutes or so, although he delivers the best one liners of the movie.Thank you for your valuable insight! I’m definitely putting the first two on my list, and it’s a shame that the new Ghostbusters movie doesn’t deliver because I’m a fan of the 80s movies and Bill Murray. I’ll watch it at some point anyways, because nostalgia.
This, Vertigo, and Psycho, To Catch a Thief are my 4 favorite Hitchcock films. Second favorites, Strangers on a Train, Rear Window, The Birds, and Torn Curtain.On to this...
I don’t remember being impressed by the original Road House. 🤔O have never seen the original - will have to watch it
In the realm of sci-fi horror, The Thing From Another World was ahead of it’s time for early 50s cinema although today it must come across as dated. What scared people in the 50s was such a low bar as compared to today, although the structure of the story and presentation is quite good even though it avoided the key element of the source material, “who can you trust”. Yes, I realize I’m repeating myself. 😝Never seen that first film, the middle one is a masterclass in film making, the last one well, just proved CGI monsters really aren’t a patch on big models and props covered in goo.
Just realised I don’t actually own The Thing, this middle one, I’ll have to fix that!
he was an excellent villain in Deja VuOne of my favorites now!
Great film too!
Sad that Caviezel seems, IMHO, to have lost his wits these days...

A 1996 Thriller-Adventure in which I enjoyed but mourned the loss of two fine actors - Bill Paxton and Philip Seymour Hoffman who starred in it. Also starring Helen Hunt.
