Guillermo del Toro gothic horror mystery… as usual for him visually striking, but it's a bit too campy/cartoony gothic and not as scary or mysterious as it could have been. Some of the CGI is very good but the characters are a bit too flat and predictable really, as is the ending.
7/10, mostly for the imagery.

Interstellar - Awesome
The Magnificent Seven (2016) - Awesome
Everybody always ignores me when I ask questions like this, but what the hell.....
Have you seen the original version from Argentina (winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in 2009, I think)? It's very good.
i have not no and if it is Spanish with English subs I wouldn't be able to connect with the visuals.
Disappointing.
Liked the Belushi tribute though.

The only exception being Last Year at Marienbad, the subs really do spoil the mood in that one. I have to watch it in French and just put up with not understanding most of the dialogue.
As @BigBearKris says, the originals are usually better than the remakes.
I got a bit fed up with it but not terrible. Can't say I know a lot more about Scientology now though.
Finding Dory. Not Pixar at their most brilliant but still very enjoyable. Having the voices of Jay and Phil from Modern Family was great and Ed O'Neill arguably carries the film as much as Ellen Degeneres.
If you get a chance - HBO's "Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief" is SO MUCH better. Very well produced and quite informative too. Really good documentary and I highly recommend.
1) Dad's Army - Not crap. I mean, not great - but I thought the new cast did justice to the old characters - and it was nice to see them all again. The story was a bit flimsy, but then the TV series was hardly Vonnegut-esque in the first place!
and,
2) The Lone Ranger - Not crap either ...well, sort of. The first two thirds are pretty good, the story of The Lone Rangers' origin is well-told and the conceit behind Tonto's motives are deftly explained, it's funny in places - and the vistas are jaw-droppingly beautiful ...but there's a point in the movie, about 30 minutes from the end, where somebody on the production staff clearly said, "Balls! We've completely forgotten to spend a shit-ton of money on a needless (and needlessly expensive), pointless and nonsensical, painfully long, pile of old wank CGI action scene!" ...and a (half) decent Western turns to complete shit before your eyes. Sad really...

Now I know @Handsome_Chris is going to disagree with me on this.....I walked out half way through. I really could not stand it. It was so naff.....and Brad Pitt speaking French.....One scene in particular was the straw that broke the camels back for me. The leading lady giving birth in the middle of the street in the midsts of the Blitz....
