    Deepwater Horizon

    ★★★½

    Pretty average but I love a disaster movie, especially when they give you a snivelling bad guy to hate. Earns and extra half star because that bad guy is John Malkovich with an indecipherable accent.

    They do the classic move of showing us the real people at the end. The guy who scored Kurt Russell playing him had to have been so stoked because he's really more of a Paul Giamatti type.

    You’re never going to expect a lot from a straight to Netflix legacy sequel 30 years after the last entry of the series was released, but I’m gonna say this was about as good as you could hope for.

    You can tell pretty quickly that Eddie Murphy gives a fuck and is trying, so that’s a huge plus already. Pretty much any time Axel Foley is having a little back and forth with someone, it’s funny. The plot stuff around…

    Kinda amazing Spielberg made such a lifeless movie the same year he made Last Crusade.

    Holly Hunter and John Goodman are solid, because they always are. 

    Dreyfuss feels all wrong. I feel like you’d want this character to be somewhat charismatic.
