i watch 99% of things on netflix so i have some delay vs. theatrical releases. i might have some answers in a few months as things come out on disc.

i have tim's vermeer on my nfx queue but that's a 2013 film.

only lovers left alive (also 2013) was great. would watch again.

snowpiercer also 2013, i mentioned in the movie thread i found the story a bit derivative but i loved tilda swinton's performance (unrecognizable), and the sets, which looked amazing.

i have the congress also in my queue but nfx predicts i'll give it only 4 stars not 5, and it's generally pretty accurate. so i'm not super-excited but i'll eventually check it out.

her, also 2013 in my area, was very good but not great. beautifully shot, good story idea and all, but i didn't like the babyman main character (phoenix is a fine actor, it's the character i found irking). scarlett's voice was pure loveliness though. i enjoyed it, just didn't think it was so great in the end.

speaking of scarlett i have yet to see lucy. besson always with his superwomen assassins. it's good that he has a theme.

captain america was a bit shit if i recall. oh yeah winter soldier. with the flying sidekick. and robert redford. yes i remember now. good effects. oh, scarlett again! i like scarlett. (well, who doesn't?). but the movie-- i'm starting to confuse it with episodes from "agents of shield". nothing great.

guardians of the galaxy i did not like that much. okay soundtrack. some okay jokes. zoe's fantastic legs are always fantastic (but the color did not flatter her). i think i expected more and was disappointed. okay entertainment.

anyway i'm barely catching up with the 70s, just finished watching catch-22.

oh, don't know if this is in your sights but check out FRANK.
