Hands of Stone 2016
Hands of Stone has been on my watchlist since I can remember, so it was nice to finally get around to watching it and I can say that it was a little bit better than I expected. At least to start.

Hands of Stone is definitely a mixed bag, ultimately held together by strong performances from Edgar Ramirez and Robert De Niro but still decent nonetheless.

Fly Me to the Moon was one of my most anticipated movies of the year and while it was different than I expected, it was different in a good way. Much more of a dramedy than romcom and just so well done.
Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum certainly elevate this, as does Woody Harrelson, but really, the entire cast is great.
The thing I think I loved the most about this is that it felt like an old school movie, like something that would have been made in the 70's.
