Blade Runner (The Final Cut). I've never seen that film before. Rutger Hauer was so good in it.

War Dogs - Miles Teller, Jonah Hill
Based on the true story about a pair of young guys who tapped into the lucrative defense contract world of supplying arms to Afghanistan. You may remember the news story a few years back of two guys selling illegal ammunition to the US government. This movie is about them. Two longtime friends stumbled onto a way to be middlemen between weapons manufacturers and the US government. They had absolutely no background in this kind of thing but they managed to secure several multi million dollar contracts with the US government. Everything was going well until they got greedy and bit off a bigger contract than they were capable of dealing with. I liked this one. I've seen Miles Teller in a few movies and I really like him. He reminds me of the 25-35 year old John Cusack.
Train to Busan--a Korean horror movie, now on Netflix. It was interesting! The little girl actress was phenomenal. I've never had a zombie movie make me cry before (though Maggie came close). Follows the normal Z movie formula, but this time it takes place on a fast moving train. Good special effects and a strong cast set it apart from the crowd, and the ending is a little different than most. I'd watch it again.
I agree!I will look for this one. I like Korean cinema. There are several good Korean crime movies on netflix.
I had read that this was something akin to the greatest zombie movie of all time. I watched it this weekend also, it was ok, and the acting was very good, but not the greatest zombie movie of all time by any means imho.Train to Busan--a Korean horror movie, now on Netflix.

Ha! I read that as 'Rogue'- one second viewing. I thought 'why would you watch only one second of a movie?' It's been a long day, what can I say?Rogue One-second viewing, and I liked it even more than I did the first time.
Kubo and the Two Strings-This one, from a small animation studio, was nominated for an Oscar, and it should have won. Great story and animation. I'll definitely watch it again.
