I really liked the movie.

And it veered off the normal heist movie- where you see the planing stages, the introduction to the team and so forth.

Nope- movie opens up right on the "ww2 bomb discovered during construction digging"

And i will leave off describing anything further about the movie.

I went in blind just because of time slot, and the AMC blurb--

"In this gripping thriller, an unexploded bomb is found at a bustling London construction site, and the resulting citywide evacuation becomes the cover for a multi-million pound jewel heist."

My goodness that was a really good movie. Robert Aramayo absolutely deserved that BAFTA win and honestly kinda deserved to be nominated for an Oscar as well. This movie had me laughing, crying, and at times, quite tense, especially during any scene where John was out in public by himself or meeting someone for the first time. On a side note, Maxine Peake deserved just as much recognition as Robert for her portrayal of his "2nd mother" Dottie. All in all, this film was funny, sad, and very educational.

It’s been different for a few of the rereleases I’ve seen lately, what was your experience?

This was definitely the most fun I've had at the movies by far this month. I won't go into spoilers but there were a lot of surprises that I didn't expect in this one. The acting was pretty great all around and the story, while somewhat conventional, was still really fun and entertaining. So I was honestly a little surprised to see it only has a 65% on Rotten Tomatoes and checking the official discussion of r/movies, I was a little surprised to see that a lot of people were saying they found it disappointing. I feel like maybe I watched a different movie than everyone else. I just thought it was a great time.

Has anyone has seen either Fuze or Desert Warrior? Looking for a movie to see tomorrow and not sure which I should go to. Prob will eventually see both but want to see everyone's opinion.

I thought, on a technical viewpoint, the movie looked great. The cinematography, the editing, the score and soundtrack, and the acting were all very well done. The problem I had was with basically everything else. Beyond the barebones plot of a major popstar reuniting with her former stylist to create a new dress, nothing else in this film made any sense to me whatsoever. I don't know if I'm just stupid or what but I genuinely don't know what this movie was trying to say, if it was trying to say anything at all. I feel like a lot of this film was supposed to be a metaphor for something, but what exactly that is, I couldn't tell you. And unfortunately, as a result, I found the film visually nice but otherwise dreadfully boring. It almost came across as pretentious in a way. Which is a shame because I had been looking forward to this one.

I liked Screen X more than I thought I would. It was cool and fun for the Michael Jackson movie.

It's basically three huge screens. Some scenes don't utilize the side screens. Other scenes stretch the picture to fit the side screens. I guess someone has to edit the movies and make these decisions.

The light from the side screens has a really cool way of lighting up the theater and making you feel more like you're there. I don't feel like it's vital to sit in the center, but I would not sit too close to the screen in front.

The sound is good too... better than a regular theater. I don't know if this new format will drive crowds to theaters.... but it's worth trying out as an a-list-er

I went in expecting something pretty bad based on the critic scores, but I ended up really enjoying it. As a first installment, it works well and feels like a solid setup. It doesn’t get into the darker parts of his career, but that seems more like the story hasn’t reached that stage yet rather than the film avoiding it.

As a piece of entertainment and a celebration of his music, it really worked for me. I’ll definitely be watching the second part.

What was the best thing you saw this week? 4/17-4/23

What was the worst?

Any fun surprises?

Just let us know how your week in A-List was 😁

AMC has upped their rerelease game a lot this year, and I’ve been paying for some of them so I can watch newer movies or expensive IMAX rereleases with A-List. I do my best to only pay for the cheapest tickets/fan faves.

1. The Revenant ($7.75 - $5 reward = $2.75)

2. I Swear ($7.75 Unseen Screen)

3. The Mummy Returns ($7.75)

4. Jerry Maguire ($7.75)

5. Fight Club ($7.75)

**Total: $33.75**

Edit: I’ve seen 67 movies in theaters this year.
