A few hours ago I watched House at the End of the Street starring Elisabeth Shue and Jennifer Lawrence. Saw it on the Syfy channel. Not bad.

Hard to be a God. Probably one of the most intensely repulsive movies ever made.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
Snowden (2016)
5/10
It started good but I feel that the movie itself could've been made much better. It was disappointing despite it's notable cast like JGL, Zachary Quinto & Nicholas Cage.
A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities.

Decent indie film, good performance by female lead, something was missing here, as it was a bit slow at times, but overall decent indie. writer/director michael farrell makes a solid supporting performance in this as well. 6/10

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996)
The Plot:
Mature, dark and gothic. A sad tale of manipulation that ends in triumph.
Favorite Character:
Quasimodo.
Favorite Line:
"Quasi, take it from an old spectator. Life's not a spectator sport. If watchin' is all you're gonna do, then you're gonna watch your life go by without ya." - Laverne
Favorite Scene:
When Quasimodo finds his ultimate strength and rescues Esmeralda from the fire.
Final Verdict: 8/10
An entertaining fantasy with beautiful art/imagery. Characters you care for and a strong message of acceptance.

Resident Evil The final chapter
4/10
That saga should have ended about 3 movies ago but this one had some entertaining value combined with nice visual effects. That's why I didn't gave it a 1 or 2.
