Silverado
Doesnt matter how good people think it is, I couldn't figure out if it was supposed to be a comedy or something else? It wasn't funny enough for a comedy. The cast was great, but the acting sucked most of the time.

I remember the hype for SILVERADO. They were saying it was going to bring back the Western and it didn't. But I also remember an interview with Kevin Costner after that where he said he was going to make this Western epic that would be the greatest achievement of his career and that was DANCES WITH WOLVES. His ego may have been too big as a result of that movie's success, because he made a couple of disasters after that. But DANCES was a truly great Western.
Dances is in the premier league, together with the Dollar trilogy and Once upon a time in the West. Silverado not. Kevin Costner's role was annoying by the way. I dislike his younger self. He is like a wine, the older he gets the better he gets.
I think Open Range is better than Dances with Wolves.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
"We are Shakespeare. We are Michelangelo. We are Tchaikovsky. We are Turing. We are Mercury. We are Wilde. We are Lincoln, Lorca, Leonardo da Vinci. We are Alexander the Great. We are Fredrick the Great. We are Rustin. We are Addams. We are Marsha! Marsha Marsha Marsha! We so generous, we DeGeneres. We are Ziggy Stardust hooked to the silver screen. Controversially we are Malcolm X. We are Plato. We are Aristotle. We are RuPaul, god dammit! And yes, we are Woolf."
I've watched it. I like the other Rathbone/Bruce movies more. Again, I just don't like the story--to me it doesn't feel like what a Holmes story should be. The best part of it is near the beginning when they're still in London; once Watson goes to Dartmoore, it's all downhill for me. When I read the book, I had to make up my own story to be interested enough to get through it.
The Foreigner with Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan. Really good a lot better than I expected.

Watch this if you like mysteries with twist and turns...
Knives out, pretty good whodunnit?. I did think it was kinda weird they made such a big deal of Marta's "otherness" when she could have easily passed as a family member. It also reminded me I like Craig a lot better as a character actor rather than James Bond.
