Ghost in the Shell - 10/10
Rogue One: 6.75/10
Had some really good moments. And I appreciate the ballsy ending. But a lot of it still felt flat and by the numbers. And shoehorning in as many old school Star Wars characters and references as possible felt pretty cheesy and unnecessary at a certain point. Though obviously, that is now Disney's MO with these films being so nostalgia driven.

Allied - 5.5/10
Suicide Squad. 5/10
I tried it again...since I was so jaded in the theater...figured it was worth another try......But even at home on my comfy couch .....I ended up checking SSF's after a while.
1. Nice beginning to show flashy bio's on each character that disappear so fast you cannot possible read them.
2. Harley's ass is in this movie more than the Joker is. SOOO many ass shots...
3. Which is probably a good thing, Lets FAILED, tried to hard and ended up with an annoying Joker, who is not menacing or worthy of remembering. ow did he get 2nd billing??
4. Tried to hard to make Will Smith likable as a mas murderer. He should have just been a bad guy...period.
5. Totally stupid CGI bad guy.
6. Sound track was awful.....such random music.....totally disconnected from each other.
7. Not one villain was really done well. El Diablo was closest to acceptable.
8. Harley constantly rambling on about how she is "bad".
9. Flag (Kinneman) looked emaciated.....scary distracting thin.
10. Serious studio meddling is pretty apparent , the bad editing can be seen especially about 1/2 way through.
For the record I really like most of Snyders films, Watchmen, Dawn of the Dead remake, Suckerpunch ( and even think MOS is OK)...I liked all of those. BvS was crap.
Personally , Ayer screwed the pooch here....I am sure assisted by the asshats at WB who obviously are interfering with the DC films.

Let me guess. 1.5 of that is Brad Pitt being able to back kick that chair into the wall when he gets up?
And how did you give this a 5/10?
I personally can't see this movie being more than a 3/10
