Agree with @NFBuck on Inferno. Tried to watch The Boss and found it pretty much unwatchable.

Finally got around to seeing The Revenant, Spotlight and Ex Machina. Enjoyed all of them...but Ex Machina was especially well done from an acting, cinematography and soundtrack standpoint. Spotlight was really well acted. The Revenant was enjoyable but didn't really think it was quite worth the hype.

Next up I've got Black Mass, Sicario, Run All Night, The Accountant, Bridge of Spies and The Arrival.

The Accountant was fine. Just. . . fine. I really liked Bridge of Spies. I think if I got to choose an actor to have a dinner party with, including dates etc, it might be Tom Hanks. Well, I would probably choose someone erratic for giggles, but you get my point. The Arrival starts very slow, for a long time. It is supposed to be deep, and it is a decent movie, but I wasn't blown away, and I love hard sci fi.

Watched Run All Night and Nocturnal Animals. Run All Night has a phenomenal cast with Joel Kinnaman (big fan of him since The Killing), Ed Harris, Liam Neeson (in what has become a pretty standard role for him) and Common [plus a random appearance by an uncredited Nick Nolte]. Worth watching but nothing ground breaking...but fairly entertaining.

Nocturnal Animals is intense. Two endings to two different stories that are both pretty cool. Tom Ford is a pretty savvy director.

Arrival up next. Then Bridge of Spies, based on the recommendations here. Also plan to watch the documentary No, No about Dock Ellis.

Huh, have been putting off bothering with both of those movies but now will give them a shot.

Nocturnal Animals sounds like something up my alley, and I didn't realize Cum All Night had famous people in it, which should be interesting.

Took 5 year old granddaughter to see it. She knew nothing about the Polynesian/Hawaiian history, but still really liked the movie. She did say that she still liked Frozen better though. There were a couple scenes that she wanted to hide her eyes, she thought they were "scary". Told her it is a Disney movie and everything always ends "happily ever after' in Disney movies, she was OK. It was a good "kid's movie" that many adults would like too.

Patriots Day - classic Peter Berg/Mark Wahlberg big budget film but well worth watching based on the subject matter
Money Monster - Clooney and Roberts in a Jim-Cramer-taken-hostage-live-on-TV snoozer
Green Room - intense horror/thriller about a punk band trapped by skinheads
Sound of My Voice - 90 mins of almost nothing for one cool moment at the end, watch it when you've seen everything else
Black Mass - really well done, IMO...love these type of biopics
The Hateful Eight - classic Tarrentino, would have liked to see what the alternate endings would have looked like
Hell or High Water - wasn't as great as I expected but really well acted and definitely worth seeing
Imperium - another white supremacist movie in the spirit of American History X
Prisoners - really cool thriller about the abduction of two young girls and what a parent will do to get them back, awesome acting/cast
Sicario - another cool movie, great cast and interesting subject matter...Benicio del Toro is cool as hell as usual
The Gift - like Sound of My Voice you have to wait a while for the cool part of the movie but it is really well done and very suspenseful
Eastern Promises - hadn't seen it in a while, just a great movie all the way around

Next up:

Blue Ruin - same director/writer as Green Room
High-Rise
Eye in the Sky
'71
Passengers
Cop Car
Split

Agree with @Hstead on Split. Great performance by James McAvoy.

But I'm not sure why Shyamalan felt the need to tie the movie to Unbreakable at the end. Felt very forced and awkward to me. Just didn't seem to serve any purpose other than a possible third movie but even if they do these two movies felt like completely different worlds.
