MOVIES AND SHOWS WATCHED THIS WEEK
Beckett (2021) – Really solid modern day mystery/thriller in the vane of the old 70s flicks. Wrong man, wrong place and shit gets hectic. I enjoyed it overall minus one small part towards the end that just seemed a bit unbelievable. 3.75/5
Grace and Frankie (2015 -) My wife watches this and I sit in on a few episodes from time to time. The new season recently surprise dropped four episodes they filmed before the pandemic and I kinda wish that was it. Of the four, only one was funny. And I think that was mostly because it focused on the kids.
Die Hard 2: Die Harder (1990) – Is it as good as the first? No. But its still a pretty solid movie. I just wish it the villains had the charisma like the first one. Overall these were pretty generic. 3.5/5
Die Hard With a Vengeance (1995) – Is it as good as the first? No. Is it better than the second? Yes. like the team up o SLJ and Bruce. I hat that he surfs a dump truck as a dam is exploded and the water is closing in on him. But I do love that they tie back into the first one so well. 4/5
