    I liked the Revenant. Do you feel like it might have been built up too much?

    Yes. It was a passable but not what i would call Oscar, or any other award, worthy.

    Yeah. That might be it. Can't really put a finger on why I didn't care for it.

    We went to see ​The Magnificent Seven​ yesterday. It was nice to actually watch a classic western. Antoine Fuqua must really love the genre because he really seems to get it. It was really refreshing to see the cast and watch the story and not be bludgeoned with the usual Hollywood crap. This movie could easily have been ruined if the story was used to focus on race or multiculturalism. Just a touch of anti-capitalism, but the basic story from the original involved the farmers vs the gang of criminals being converted to farmers vs the evil mine owner isn't overly done IMO.

    Just action and predictable ending. I truly enjoyed the two hours I spent watching this movie.

    This is good- we both wanted to see this after watching the previews.

    I came really close to watching the Magnificent Seven with my wife this past Saturday. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
