Brace for Impact (2016)
Movie is okay, political correctness brings it down
The story-line and execution of that story-line are okay. It's an average sort of mystery/conspiracy. BUT, the political correctness is so out of control. We have way too many homosexuals presented in this movie. Way out of proportion to real life. I have gay friends, but not MOST of my friends are gay. I don't care if you happen to be gay, but I don't need to have "gays are great" shoved in my face when I watch a movie. I also have Muslim friends. But NOT ALL of my friends are Muslims. And I don't need "Muslims are Great" shoved in my face when I'm watching a movie. Sad to day, but many of the terrorists active today are Muslim, or at least claim to be Muslim. I imagine there are mimes out there who are terrorists, too. And probably clowns. And a nun here or there. But jeez, can a movie just be a movie and not have a political agenda?
The Girl on the Train (2016)
Another Movie for a Woman Having Bad Cramps
These movies are predominately watched by women having bad menstrual cramps. That, in large part, explains the bleak and hateful outlook. This movie is too slow-moving, has little suspense, and frankly, has no character you give a a damn about. I can wait a long time for suspense to build in a thriller. I really like thrillers. But at some point you need to give the viewer a little bit of story to hang onto. A miserable woman's descent into more misery is perhaps the proper subject of a music video (remember those?), not so much of a feature length project. Want to see a great "train" thriller? Try Hitchcock's "Stranger On a Train." Better pace, better story, less depression.
