Uncharted - 6/10
Easy entertainment for people not aware of the games.
Moonfall - 5/10
Classic Emme-End-the-world-rich. Even more goofy than Independence day 2 imo. Same low quality CGI though.
Holy fuck how dark it was.

Independence Day had great visual effects for its time, though, most of it still holds up.
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

If it looks good to old eyes it must look good to young eyes. 
Hollyweird needs to be replaced by young experienced folk. Budgets will go crazy for a few years but it'll level out asap. Even Disney movies lack good CGI these days. No real progress.

Stuff I've seen lately:
Miracle Mile (1989) 7/10
Guy picks up phone ringing at a booth, and a voice on the other side says the nukes are going to drop in 60 minutes.
Don't remember seeing this before. It's not too bad, and has lots of known actors from the time.
Flesh Gordon (1974) 6/10
Good old '70s titties movie  Super cheaply made, could feature on Best of the Worst, but it's actually pretty good, for what it is. It's all in the enthousiasm  And lots of tits.
It's truly hilarious at times. When Dr Jerkoff  exits the spaceship for the first time, takes a deep breath and goes "Aah, good, there's oxygen on this planet", you knoiw they knew what they were making.
The Innocents (2021) 8/10
Norwegian fantasy/horror, about 4 children discovering they have special powers. It gets quite fucked up at times, and the kids' acting is really good and believable.
Superman The Movie (1978) & Superman II (1980) 7/10 & 7.5/10
They're both still good movies, although the first one is very slow. The ending where he reverses the Earth's rotation and thus time, obviously, still sucks
Second one is a lot more fun with Zod and the other 2.
The Butterfly Effect (2004) 8/10
It's dark & depressing, but I've always liked this one, and it's still good. Version I rewatched had the alternative ending, in which he strangles himself when still inside the womb. I can see why they changed it The movie really needed to end at least somewhat uplifting, the theatrical ending is still sad enough.
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

The Northman - 7/10
Viscerality and aesthetic can't hide a thin plot. Has a bunch of good scenes tho!

Yep i remember the release,the special effects were unparalleled at the time. Now special effects are just common place so Emmerich can't really stand on that alone. I didn't mind ID2 for similar reasons to Moonfall, it doesn't take itself seriously and is kinda intentionally stupid, its not quiet parody levels but dances a fine line.
Good recommendations, not seen half of those.

This actually sounds like it could be amazing

 So that janky movie put more thought into this than the entire crew of the covenant (from alien covenant)  |

Sonic 2 - 6.5/10
As a kid who played all the Sonic Megadrive games, this was a blast. As a grown man trying to enjoy the script and characters (as wrong as it is with a movie of this caliber) was okay-ish. Tails, Dr Robotnik and Knuckles were the MVPs.

Sonic 2. Took 2 days to finish this. Idris is nice. Tails was annoying as fuck.
Some nice bits here and there. Will watch the 3rd/10.

The Bad Guys - 7/10
Watched this with my daughter and we both enjoyed it.
I really liked the animation, especially during the car chases.
May the NFOrce be with you always.

The Lost City: 8/10
Wow! Where did this come from? Thought it was going to be a boring PG-13 flick. Nope, this was hilarious! Brad Pitt was great for the very short time! And I knew I remembered that guy from Miracle workers!!! Sandra and Tatum were great together! Funny jokes, well paced, great acting, just good old fashion fun! Recommended!

The Kill Team 7/10: A young American soldier in Afghanistan is disturbed by his commanding officer's behavior and is faced with a moral dilemma. Based loosely on a true story as movies do, Alexanda Skarsgard and lead give decent performances.
Firestarter 4/10: went in blind, meh superhero crap :/ dropped at halfway mark.
