I did not care for it. I think the 1997 remake is better.

It's not as good. The lead character is a creep and I didn't care about what happened to him.

The Gift, Scary, had me thinking maybe I should wait to watch in during the daytime while instead of while I'm sitting here in the late night alone. The movie was also a a bit of a downer

Mad Max - Fury Road, will watch it in a hour or so from now. Guess I'm sticking with a theme here of downers. Silly me.

And one I had been meaning to watch for some time, Nebraska, it was well done, a good movie, but quite depressing, can't believe I watched it all the way through it was that much of a downer, guess it was that much worth it if I couldn't hit fast forward or the stop button.

Me thinks next time, I should add a comedy to the collection of movies with not such an uplifting theme. Hoping at least Mad Max will be a little bit of exiting fun.

Penguins of Madagascar I saw twice working for child care and liked it. I do want to see what the other Madagascar movies were like. I do hate that virtually all of the opening was shown in a teaser for the movie.

I didn't get to see Age of Adaline when I rented it (holidays and work) so I requested it again. I still have Big Lebowski out as I do Project Almanac and Blackhat. Almanac I will return (it's on Epix and I could just record that) when I pick up Southpaw, Longest Ride and apparently Adaline.

I'm still waiting on Mr. Holmes, The Gift, Z for Zachariah, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Self/less and We Are Your Friends on the reserve list.
