I watched Hercules last night and spent much of the film feeling pissed off that it abandonned the supernatural for most, if not all the film.

It redeemed itself in the last quarter in my opinion and I came away feeling it was great fun. 

I still would have liked something more akin to Jason and the Argonauts as I loved all the magical stuff in that.

I had to dose the wife up with coffee twice, but she made it in the end.

Wasnt expecting anything really but, wow, what a great movie. Wouldnt call it a comedy but it was a really good story. Still cant figure out how Naomi Watts got cast but she was actually pretty good in this role.

Automata

Pretty and frosty like a popsicle--a cold-hearted Blade Runner knockoff with the nutritional content of sugar.

For the first 45 minutes or so (despite the "homage" [read: uninspired rip] to films like Blade Runner) the film might score a 7/10... the remainder of the muddled, aimless plot is as arid as the desert it takes place in and scores a 4/10. So, being kind, and working out an average score, Automata's score might be as high as 5.5/10. A shame.

Interstellar. 7.5/10

Beautiful to watch and at times one of those films which can make the human heart soar. At other times it'll make the human heart sore.
Sometimes thought-provoking and yet at other times a bit muddled (no, I don't have a hard time understanding conceptual physics but the screenplay doesn't always translate well what it seeks to convey). The director sought to cover this internal weak-spot with an abundantly loud score.
The upshot--I liked this film about time, memory, loss and regret.

Watched the Turtles this evening and while the story was so-so and you've seen it all before, the turtles themselves were the best ones yet! Like 4 mini Hulks running around bashing things.

I watched Lucy later on and that was just silly.

Lucy was silly… is it the new turtles or the classic turtles?

The all new, muscley turtles.  Even my daughter managed the whole film, and she has the attention span of a gnat.
