Message: [QUOTE="Mano, post: 3113915, member: 3300"] [B]American Assassin[/B] - Barely, [I]barely[/I], above direct to DVD quality. Looked like they had semi-high hopes for the script and thusly gave it a decent production budget which allowed for some quality international location filming. But the intrigue within the plot never materialized and altogether it was a pretty by the numbers spy/thriller flick. [B]The Meg[/B] - Zoocougar's description is apt, but I think he liked it a bit more than I did: [B]Mary Poppins Returns[/B] - If it were just me and the wife watching I probably wouldn't have dug it as much, but seeing how taken with it and the sense of wonder and awe at times that my kids had while watching added a lot to our viewing. Super derivative of the original but it was a pretty sweet film while not being too saccharine. [/QUOTE]
