We saw two movies last night
One was starring Chris Pine
as a young version of a beloved character
(no, we're not taking about James Kirk)
I guess beloved is too strong
more like kind of well-known
but we think the studio overestimated how well-known
(if you can name the other four Jack Ryan movies, good for you)
Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit
a strange franchise to reboot
do we care about his origins
or are they only borigins
just find some dirty Russians to shoot
He's an American James Bond
but they do differently across the pond
cause here our super spies get bogged down by audits and the strength of the dollar
(stagflation is the real enemy)
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit
here's a verdict that you can't refute
It's a competent spy thriller
not too bad, but not too killer
we saw it then we snuck in Devil's Due
Oh my God, how I love found footage
but they didn't even try
didn't try
They seem to know Paranormal Activity was scary
but they don't seem to know quite why
don't know why
It hits the beats, but it's not that fun
if you want to see a movie about a marked one
see The Marked Ones
Don't go see Devil's Due
just watch the baby prank promo on YouTube
all the cool parts are in the trailer
they should have shown the devil nail her
at least then we could have got some more boob
don't they know that all we want is some boob.
