1. I haven't, but James McAvoy is a good actor.

I will see it.

2. I rarely go to movies in the theater...

..but I have gone twice now. And I plan to go again. I do have "different" tastes, but each time I went the audience was spellbound and really engaged.

3. Sounds grand and intense...I like that in a movie.

Thanks for the review.

5. I saw fences, hidden figures, Florence with Meryl Streep, hacksaw and lion

I liked all but fences. Fences was boring but the actors were superb.

6. I just rented Florence...with Meryl Streep, Hugh Grant, and Simon Helberg

The most charming, sweet movie I've seen in a while! Hugh Grant was amazing-so was Simon Helberg. ( I didn't recognize him from "The Big Bang Theory&quot Meryl Streep never disappoints, well, almost never.

Thanks for the referral. My youngest and I totally loved it!

8. Fences

was the only one I saw and I agree about the acting.

4. Damn, that film shoved Chris Shaw's film, Split, into the Google rabbit hole

Double dog dare anyone to watch, at least, the first ten minutes!

[FrankfurtCat]

7. I'm going to try to watch it this week-end-after finishing moving and earyl Spring cleaning.

Did you watch it?

[Brother Buzz]

15. Yes, I actually saw it in the theater back in the day

Chris Shaw was a friend of my BIL so I was expected see it, and that's the only why I mentioned Split. The film is OK, I guess, but Sci-fi doesn't float my boat. First ten minutes were interesting, then I got lost. Like I said, Sci-fi doesn't do much for me.

I would be curious about what you think.

[FrankfurtCat]

16. I plan on watching it this week-end. Thank you for providing the link to the entire movie!

I like Sci-fi, but it's not my favorite type of movie, usually.

17. The opening scene was filmed in San Francisco with a street person confronting a parked bus

From then on, I've always wondered if there was something bigger, something sinister, happening on the streets, and the street people have known the skinny on Big Brother all along, and are actually trying to protect us from him.

Watch and give me your critique. I'm curious.

[FrankfurtCat]

18. I will! I'm looking forward to watching it tonight or tomorrow.

You've got me curious

9. I haven't but I plan to. My question is...

...why are there 3 movies from 2016 all named Split:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3315656/
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2660118/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4972582/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

[FrankfurtCat]

10. Good question!

I didn't know about the other two-they look interesting to me also.

Then again, I didn't know about the Shyamalan "Split" until the night I was looking for a movie to go see. "Fences" wasn't playing nearby; I saw "Split' was playing and decided to go.

I don't go to many movies, so I was very pleasantly surprised.

11. If you're a suspense fan, I recommend Taking Lives

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364045/?ref_=nv_sr_2

Stars: Angelina Jolie, Ethan Hawke, Kiefer Sutherland
The film starts in the early 1980s. Young Martin Asher took a bus for Canada. He meets another teen on the bus Matt Soulsby. When the bus broke they decided to rent a car and drive to Seattle. On the road the car gets a flat tire, and Matt starts changing the tire Martin comments on how he and Matt are about the same height and he quickly pushes Matt in the way of an oncoming truck causing a huge accident where Matt and the driver both die. He took Matt's guitar and left singing like Matt did.

Twenty years later, an FBI profiler, Illeana Scott comes to Canada to help hunting down a serial killer Martin Asher who killed multiple men and lived by their identities. Martin's mother claims that she saw Martin in Quebec city and she tells the police that Martin is evil. The police also have an eyewitness James Costa who saw Asher kill his last victim...

I like a movie with a twist.

12. Thank You! I am a suspense fan. And a fan of all three actors.

I can't believe I haven't seen it. Going to watch it as soon as I'm able. Twists are great!

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

13. Apparently it's available on Netflix

[FrankfurtCat]

14. I will definitely check it out...

...after I renew an expired subscription.
