Hey, there's no account for taste: people used to watch executions in public squares and wild animals eating gladiators for fun!
And if Gladiator battles still went on you can be sure I would be there! Anyway, films:
XXX Return of Xander Cage 4/10 - Probably a generous score to some, but to be fair I knew exactly what to expect when going in. Over the top cheese, a bit of a Vin Diesel vanity project, definitely a poor alternative to watching the Fast and Furious series of films, but pretty much did what it set out to do which was let you turn off the brain and be distracted for 90 mins.
Nice Guys 5/10 - No doubt seems wrong to score this so similarly to XXX, and part of this is probably due to having high expectations and being a bit disappointed. I found it not nearly as amusing as I expected, a couple of chuckles. It was decent enough a film played very well by the actors, but overall I found it a bit....beige?
The Accountant 8/10 - Really enjoyed this, not much to say other than it was a surprisingly good film. Could probably argue it was a bit 'slow' in places but I never found it to drag and was entertained throughout.
Blood Father 5/10 - A bit of a Takenesque film with Mel Gibson. I liked the more manic style he brought to the film though was expecting it to be more aggressive all out action.
