IT, and unfortunately I hated it. It wasn't scary, and honestly I thought most of it was stupid and I was very disappointed, especially after all the hype. Probably would rate it 3.5 out of 10.

Just watched Sunshine Cleaning. A bit cliche, but the dad moment got me more than the sibling fighting, which is something I still have, with humor, with my siblings, all 8 of them. I'd give it a 3/4. Great actors can make a pretty good movie, pretty darn good.

The last movie I saw was spectre. Well, i have a lot of James Bond movies at home and keep on watching them over and over again but this one is far different than the other bond films. I mean, in my own observation this movie has different plot. Unlike it's predecessors that have same event though they change a bit some of its original scene but it still looked the same for me. But spectre movie which started Daniel Craig was more on stick-to original plot. There were no more diamond controlled laser beams, no more rocket launch codes which were simultaneously repeated for the past bond movies. Though I never liked Daniel as bond, but he gave justice to the role of being the world's super spy (fiction only, of course😂)

I recently watched one of the Batman animated films called "Batman: Gotham By Gaslight". It was an interesting enough story and was quite a bit of fun to watch. I rate it a 7 out of 10.

The Greatest Showman was the last movie I saw, it's a musical starring Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Zendaya and Keala Settle. I usually love musicals,the story is really relatable, it's basically about a men who was poor and had big dreams. After he was fired from his job he has the idea to start a circus. There he finds success but he still wants more.
I would rate it 8.5 out of 10.

We just watched Star Trek: First Contact. I really enjoyed it. However, I had a problem with the idea of a Borg Queen. It kind of ruined the creepy anti-individual hive-mind culture of the Borg for me. Acting, directing, set design, pacing were all good. I didn't particularly like the actor who played Zephram Cochrane. Troi's throwaway comments about fending off his handsy-ness struck a sour chord in the current cultural situation. I'd give it a 7 out of 10.

I totally agree with you. One of the dumbest movies I have ever watched. How this ever made it to film is beyond me. Frankly I think you are being too generous in giving it a 3.5/10 rating. With the exception of Shawshank Redemption I think all of Steven King's adaptations were just plain stupid.

I saw The Last Jedi back in December. Using this forum's rating scale I'd give it a 2 out of 4. It was completely fine. I don't really understand why so many people hate it so much, especially the people saying that it's "too different" from all the other star wars movies. It was basically the same as Empire Strikes Back with a bit of Return of the Jedi[/] mixed in.

Similarly, I don't get why a lot of people have been fawning over it. It was perfectly mediocre!

The last movie I saw in theaters was Pitch Perfect 3. I loved the first 2 movies, saw them multiple times in theater and then bought them. I have to say I wasn't disappointed in the 3rd and final movie. It was everything the end of a trilogy should be! There were moments of triumph and moments of failure. I laughed and cried, by the time the movie was over I was really sad and happy at the same time. Sad because the movie was over and that it was the last installment but happy because the movie was great and I loved every second of it. The music in the movie totally made the movie along with all the cast members. If you haven't seen any of these movies I suggest highly that you do, and go see the 3rd one for sure. The rating for Pitch Perfect 3 is PG13 I believe.

I went to a cinema to see "Darkest Hour" with Gary Oldman starring Winston Churchill. I really enjoyed the film. It was a good change for me to see a "real hero" after a period of time I watched superheroes saving our galaxy :D Without superpowers but with a really human approach and standing firm to fight for his ideas and values, Churchill had to decide to either make a peace treaty with Hitler or fight him. I rate it 5 out of 5. And as a bonus, it gave me a clarity about Dunkirk.
