Was a cool movie, different kind of twist on it all and lots of laughs. And then ending... Wow, very powerful and just kind of blindsides you. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The Last Witch Hunter 7/10 pretty good, surprisingly, the ending seemed meek though, kind of fell apart for me (gave me the same feel as the Constantine movie)
Beasts of No Nation 7/10 it lost my attention in the first half (focus/substance seemed lacking), then it got better, perhaps i was expecting too much from it...it was good though

lol, yeah, it looks like a cheesy fantasy action flick, and it's not far off, but it's a bit better than expected
if you liked Keeanu Reeves' Constantine movie you'll likely enjoy this, it has a bit of the same feel/style but mixed with some Antonio Banderas' 13th warrior
Maybe that was a bit hyperbolic, but I remember hating it at least
13th Warrior on the other hand, was horrible. Especially if you enjoyed the book, which I did as I was really into Crichton books as a teenager. It could have been so good, but it was horrible.
trainwreck 8.5/10
Amy wrote and played the part. Not as epic as brides maid but it was decent. the cameos did a great job. John cena was in and had a few good laughs. glad i watched it.

oh yeah i have to finish watching that! i was watching it with my cousin and he refuses to give time to any film involving rape so i didn't see much of it :/
A few "horror" movies watched to get into the spirit of Halloween:
The Conjuring: 4/10
Cheap scares. Quite slow. Could've been so much better had they gone a different direction with some of the plot details. TBH not sure why the high rating on Netflix.
It Follows: 5/10
Newer horror flick. Interesting premise (borderline hilarious actually). Creepy, not really scary per se. Only kept me engaged because I was looking in the movie frames for the antagonist.
Full disclosure: I'm one to laugh when watching a horror movie. I'm particularly hard on them mostly because they use cheap scares, or the plot is so outrageous that I can't help but laugh. The last "horror" movie I enjoyed was The Cabin in the Woods, mostly because it made fun of everything for me.

yeah that's harsh..i thought both were entertaining
it follows was decent because it felt like an 80's indie horror

I agree the soundtrack to It Follows definitely lent itself to your observations. Very much like The Guest, which I suppose you could classify as a "horror" movie in the sense that someone chases after the protagonist in a creepy manner.
I'm generally pretty hard on horror films. If something really scared me in a way I don't find cheap, or caused me a lot of dread anticipating something to happen, then I'd give it a pretty good rating.
Sicario (to me at least) had a few instances where I was dreading what would happen next. Same with The Guest. Both were better at that than the two horror films I reviewed above.
Louis Koo movie. very typical. It's not that crazy of an action movie but it's not bad. The script is decent. It's not an EPIC must watch but it does its job. Good pacing throughout. 8/10
Keanu gets raped and then tortured by two hot chicks (one of whom is incredibly hot) basically it's a victim shaming (torturing) case by two crazy chicks
3/10 was for Ana de Armas' nude scenes (otherwise it'd be a 1/10)
