Recently watched #3

The Wolf of Wall Street

This is a long movie. I had only watched a third when I checked how long had gone, because so much had happened. And yeah, it wasn't the best three hours, but I still think it was worth the watch. Not really that much to say about this one actually. It was okay. And occasionally every bit as ridiculous as it seems based on the trailer.


Zodiac
This was surprisingly good! And scary, I totally shouldn't have watched this late at night when I was alone... took me a while to fall asleep. But yeah, this was good. Not the best, but good enough that I don't regret watching it. Felt a little long at times, and the time jumps confused me a lot because the actors didn't seem to get any older-looking, but what can you do.

Aeon Flux
This was so laughably bad that I don't even know where to start. So predictable and stupid. The idea was good, in theory, but it tried too hard and used too many clichés. And well, the feminist in me was crying because of the skimpy outfits (nothing wrong if that's what you want to wear!) and how the main character was treated. And some of the camera shots, ugh. The action scenes made me laugh out loud a couple of times, they were so ridiculous. I wouldn't recommend this at all.

[These movies I watched last Summer, if I remember correctly, but I forgot to publish this post. So I am doing it now.]
