Message: [QUOTE="Mano, post: 3212677, member: 3300"] [B]The Favourite[/B] - Colman was so good and totally deserved her best actress nod. Since the time I first saw her in the movie [I]Confetti[/I] I've always thought she would have great success. Great direction and performances all around. I was really struck by the editing in this one, something I don't often take note of. [B]Toy Story 4[/B] - Because #3 ended on such a sweet note and seemed to complete the trilogy so perfectly I was curious how they would make this one worthwhile, they did well with the direction they took. Probably would come in last if I were to rank all 4 movies but still better than 99% of ANY other animated films out there. This was also the first movie we were brave enough to take our kids to (2 1/2 year old girl, 16 month old boy), they freaking loved it of course and were completely well-behaved kids. Double win! and probably speaks to how good a movie it was since there was maybe only one lull that my son lost some patience with the whole ordeal over. [B]Us[/B] - A let down. Would've worked better as a 10 minute short story on Peele's [I]Outer Limits[/I] revival. I like my horror movies more moody and atmospheric, and while this had that, it otherwise collapsed under the weight of it's ridiculous premise. Social commentary is fine, but this just came off as silly. The twist was easy to call as well. [/QUOTE]
