The Smashing Machine.
The film hinges entirely on a great performance by The Rock. Beyond that, the question hangs there: Why make a film about Mark Kerr at all? His life story just isn't that interesting, and the film has no reason to exist beyond the acting.
No Other Choice.
I'm still not sure whether I enjoyed this or not. It was quirky and confusing. The storytelling assumes you'll fill in a lot of gaps, sometimes to its detriment. Not his strongest film, but odd and engaging enough to be worth its time. It has a very strong sentiment for modern times.
Nuremberg.
Russell Crowe was so good that I forgot he was Russell Crowe. I wish I could say the same for Rami Malek, who was sooooo hammy and almost implausibly bad. Such a shame, without him the film might have been the kind that endures the test of time.0 -
I was really disappointed with Nuremberg. Had all the ingredients to be really, really good but didn’t deliver. Still worth watching, but not what it could have been.Chunes said:

Totally agree Malek was dreadful. Watched 'One battle after another' and was disappointed in that too.

Maybe it's me but the directors seem to forget/ignore the story lines in the last 45 minutes of a lot of the major movies nowadays.0
