What's the last movie you've seen?

I rewatched Amy of Darkness last night (1992). It's the 3rd movie in the Evil Dead series by Sam Raimi starring Bruce Campbell. My (grown, over 18 year old) son and his friends are playing Evil Dead: The Game so he was interested in seeing the movies. We actually watched all 3 over the past few days - The Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness. I love dark comedy. The Evil Dead was sort of one of the first movies of the genre. I actually saw Army of Darkness in a theater when it released. (Yes, I'm old.)

Next we want to watch the series Ash Vs. Evil Dead. We ordered the disc and are waiting for it to arrive. NO SPOILERS, PLEASE.
 
[No Spoilers] Went to the local cinema to watch the newest Doctor Strange movie. Had a blast and a was pleasantly surprised 😁
 
Everything Everywhere All at Once

I really wanted to like this because it had an endearing start and I liked the characters, but as it went on, it felt more and more disjointed and I got bored. A 2 hour and 19 minute long comedy is...excessive.
 
I've been working my way through the film adaptations of John Grisham novels lately. With the exception of A Time to Kill (a film I can't wholeheartedly recommend if you're extremely squeamish, no matter how much I appreciated the story), most of them are very good but also a tad silly. I'm having fun with them. The last one I finished was The Chamber, which er... was not very good. And now I'm currently watching The Rainmaker. It has Danny DeVito in it, so it has no choice but to be good.
 
Don't Look Up, we watched it in Ethics class. I did not like it, it's a comedy but I didn't really find it funny. Also, shoving a bunch of famous actors/actresses in (like Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, and Ariana Grande who's a famous singer) won't make the movie better. And I'm not sure why our teacher allowed us to watch a film that's rated R? I can't really blame the movie for that one, but my classmates went totally bonkers for every *** scene or any glimpse of nudity. It's the first movie I've seen with a bad ending, so I'll give it kudos for that.
 
Top Gun: Maverick

It was such a good film, the perfect blend of nostalgia and new stories to be told from such an iconic 80's film. Someone even turned up to the cinema in an aviator suit and sunglasses which just goes to show how much people have been craving a Top Gun sequel.
 
Finally got around to watching Sword of the Stranger. Solid film for those interested in samurai. The adventure reminded me a bit of Dororo (a rambunctious child accompanied by a great swordsman).
 
Toy Story 2 was on today. I've already got the DVD, but it's always nice to watch it when it comes on the TV. I miss the days when Pixar movies had outtakes...
 
The Goonies. Despite being an '80s kid I had never seen the movie, so my husband and I watched it together today.
 
everything everywhere all at once - i really enjoyed it, especially watching it completely blind without seeing any reviews/trailers. absolutely crazy weird but still really heart warming at the same time, defo one of the better films i've seen at the cinema recently
