In-Flight Movie Picks (Part 2)

Another business trip to the US, this time to Monroe, near Seattle. This was the occasion to binge-watch another bunch of in-flight movies.

  1. Money Monster by Jodie Foster, with George Clooney and Julia Roberts: great thanks to Clooney and Roberts.
  2. Demolition by Jean-Marc Vallée with Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler) and Naomi Watts: some boring moments, but I love Jake Gyllenhaal, who actually plays a character similar to Nightcrawler.
  3. Everybody Wants Some!! By Richard Linklater with Blake Jenner, Tyler Hoechlin. (Pleasant, with some fun parts, although never truly hilarious. A bit disappointed).
  4. A Hologram for the King by Tom Twyker with Tom Hanks, Sarita Choudhuryt (Good one, Tom Hanks is awesome as always).
  5. Tale of tales by Matteo Garrone with Salma Hayek, Vincent Cassel. (Good, though the tales don't really intertwine much.  More like a series of mostly unrelated stories).
  6. The Lobster by Yorgos Lanthimos, with Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz. (Completely out of the left field, but I loved it. Not the kind of movie you'd expect to watch in a plane, and definitely not for everyone. Check it out only if you're into weird and absurd stuff. Now I want to see all the movies from this director).).
  7. Elvis & Nixon by Liza Johnson, with Michael Shannon, Kevin Spacey (quite fun).
  8. Born to Be Blue by Robert Budreau with Ethan Hawke, Carmen Ejogo (I guess it was kinda good, but it's not my kinda movie. Plus I can't stand jazz, and the movie is about Chet Baker, so...).
  9. Au nom de ma fille (Kalinka) by Vincent Garenq with Daniel Auteuil, Marie-Josée Croze (Not great movie, but the subject is a true story that kept me hooked till the end). Daniel Auteuil is a great actor.
