Movies we watched in September

Months go by so quickly! I remember writing the article for August very well. And now..it's already October. Winter is coming!! That also gives some more time at home. Watching movies like a true couch potato, lol. Well, let's see what we managed to watch in September. 

Carola

The Dark Crystal

Year: 1982

Genre: Adventure, Family

IMDB score: 7,2

My score: 9

Remark:  I can't believe I had never watched this movie before! I'm so glad I decided to watch the DVD (Totally love the edition that I have). And I love the movie. It's awesome! I'm a big fan now haha.  I've always loved Labyrinth, so I really don't get why I haven't watched the Dark Crystal before. But well, I enjoyed it now. And I really liked the series The Dark Crystal; Age of Resistance too! 

Me and You and Everyone We Know

Year: 2005

Genre: Comedy, Drama

IMDB score: 7,3

My score: 7

Remark:  This is a movie we bought recently and I was really curious. You follow multiple people ho all come together at some point. A bit of strange, but interesting movie. 

IT: chapter 2

Year: 2019

Genre: Horror

IMDB score: 7,1

My score: 6,5

Remark:  I really loved IT:Chapter 1, so i couldn't wait to see the next part. I think Bill Skarsgard really plays an awesome Pennywise. In this movie as well. I did think this movie was a bit predictable and a bit too long. I still like it, I'm just not super excited. Mainly the part about the relics took too ong in my opinion and wasn't very frightening. Also some effects (like with the grandma) weren't really my thing. 

Frankenstein

Year: 1931

Genre: Horror

IMDB score: 7,8

My score: 8

Remark:  Many people will be familiar with this movie! Frankenstein is about an obsessed scientist who assembles a living being from parts of dug up corpses. I watched this movie because I saw an awesome Frankenstein t-shirt and I wanted to watch the movie before ordering the shirt. 

Fight Club

Year: 1999

Genre: Drama

IMDB score: 8,8

My score: 8

Remark:  Another classic! I really loved seeing Fight Club (again). I watched in the cinema, that was awesome. I was surprised though, abut how many details I had forgotten already. I am glad to have seen it again. 

First Blood

Year: 1982

Genre: Action

IMDB score: 7,7

My score: 7

Remark:  Yes, I watched another well known movie! This one, at home. Somehow, I always felt like I had seen First Blood. But I actually hadn't. So it was about time! 

Police Academy 6 & Mission Moscow

Year: 1989 & 1994

Genre: Comedy

IMDB score: 4,4 & 3,6 

My score: 6,5

Remark:  I really love the Police Academy movies! And now I've seen them all (again). I own the DVD box, it's great! I was really surprised to see Ron Perlman in "Mission Moscow". he plays an awesome role haha.  

Terminator: Salvation

Year: 2009

Genre: Action

IMDB score: 6,5

My score: 5,5

Remark:  I liked this Terminator the least I have to say. I have DVD already for quite a long time and now decided to watch it. It was okay. I didn't think it was great. 

Zombieland

Year: 2009

Genre: Horror

IMDB score: 7,6

My score: 7,5

Remark: I had never watched Zombieland before and this year there will be another Zombieland movie: Zombieland: Double Tap. Reason enough to start with watching Zombieland. And I really liked it. The movie has a great cast (With for example Emma Stone and Woody Harrelson).
