    Bros IS a wild movie to watch on a flight. I thought it must not be too dirty if they had it on the flight. Boy was I wrong. I powered through but finally turned it off during the third sex scene, and thought I'd finish it later, but ultimately decided I don't really care, and went back to it.

    I was disappointed too. It's been on my list for a long time. I know it was well received. Just didn't click for me I guess.

    Bros 8/10
    Very funny. I do like Billy Eichner already, and thought he was great, but understand some people find him grating. Anyway, I liked the other lead. Had some cringy jokes but overall great.

    Couples Retreat 1/10
    Put this on to fall asleep, and unfortunately didn't. I don't think I laughed once. Bad chemistry in every couple, and the end was wrapped up in such a nice happy bow, it made the entire movie feel pointless. Even after 2 couples realize they shouldn't be together they all end up reconciling, and in reality that's just not actually a happy ending.

    Dumbo 2019 5/10
    Takes an original story and makes it a boring, by the books affair. I feel like the entire story was changed so much to the point it's even hard to call it a remake. A typical Disney broken family subplot, and a generic villain who acts like a good guy even though he's clearly evil bring down a movie about a flying elephant, and that should be hard to do.

    Mary Poppins Returns 2/10
    I think I liked the original when I was younger, but this to me was hot, hot garbage. I thought the songs were terrible, Lin Manuel Miranda's accent was grating, the kids were annoying. Practically nothing good here.

    Strange World 6/10
    Thought this was fun enough. The kid was annoying, and the plot was unoriginal, but the world looked great and I was always excited to see what was coming up next.

    Werewolves Within 4/10
    Expected more of a funny mystery movie, I guess I was thinking like Clue, but it wanted so badly be a quirky comedy, it fails to make you invested in the characters or over all mystery in favor of unfunny jokes.
