I like this format better. Quick and easy reads. And I've seen 3 of the 6 movies you mentioned: Mrs. Harris, Argylle, and Rebel Ridge. And would definitely agree with your ratings. I saw Mrs. Harris with my older sister in the movie theater and just LURVED it. We both wanted to kick that young bitch's ass (trying for no spoils here) for what she did. I was actually quite entertained by Argylle because SAM FUCKING WRIGHT. OMG, after seeing him in Mr. Right with Anna Kendrick, I was like, "Where. in the world. Did this fucking guy come from and why I haven't I seen more of his movies?" And your comment about Aaron Pierre was dead. On. No pun intended. Those eyes... Lordty. He had serious "Come at me, bro. No, for real. Come at me, bro because I cannot WAIT to fuck you up " vibes.

And I remember when movie tickets were $2.50! U.S. dollars, that is. Back when I was middle/high school. One of the things I used to do was collect my movie and concert tickets. Not sure why I tossed them (could've made a collage or something), but I was a Movie Watching Fiend back in the day, so needless to say, that price point, was, well, on point, with my allowance. LOL

Have you read Mrs Harris Goes To Paris? It’s an absolute delight! I enjoyed the film too. I also enjoyed The Perfect Couple, despite the facelift!

No, I haven't read it, but imagine it's very uplifting. 🥰

Glad you made it past the facelift, always a challenge! 😉

Mrs Harris Goes to Paris was a surprising delight. A perfect sunday morning with a cuppa kind of film

Yes, it really was, I didn’t think I’d enjoy it as much as I did. 😃

Argyle was a tepid mess but whiled away 2 hours! Nobody really killed in Rebel Ridge which I found boring and when I realized it I was appalled at my reaction to this fact, I just celebrate it. Absolutely mesmerizing leading man!! I gorged oh The perfect couple in one day ( I’m a lazy bitch)

I know. It had so much promise, including a blistering start. Sigh.

I did make it to the end though which is worthy of 3 stars in my book… I ditch very easily. 😉

Oh loving this Kate. I’m always so late to the box set party and as the darker, colder evenings approach, sat watching a box set is definitely a great way to spend an afternoon/evening.

Just started watching Monsters last night and it is good….Mrs Harris goes to Paris also looks like a good watch too, one to be added to the list. 😍
