MoviePass Vacation - Episode 9 - Tully
May 6th, 2018 @ Regal Manor Stadium 16 in Lancaster, PA - $13.40 for a normal ticket
MoviePass Investment - $89.50. Total Savings - $109.05. Overall ROI - +$19.55
I caved in and paid for Avenger's Infinity War because it was definitely going to sell out opening week, hence no posts for a while. Otherwise the theater is a little bleak right now. I can't bring myself to see Rampage yet and Overboard is playing at odd times.
This was my first film since MoviePass started putting odd new restrictions in. I noticed that films I've seen are now blacked out (you can only see them once) and now you have to take a photo of your ticket (not actually that big a deal). I'm pissed for people who hadn't signed up before and are now limited to 4 movies per month. Still worth it but definitely takes the fun out of the whole thing. I believe I'm still grandfathered in at unlimited but worried that'll go away upon renewal.
I was underwhelmed with Tully. The dialogue is typically snappy for Diablo Cody, and Charlize does a terrific job, but at a certain point the premise just ended up boring me when it wasn't annoying me. It's admittedly tough to make a movie where screaming babies and obnoxious kids are driving the mother crazy without also driving the audience crazy, but that didn't make me enjoy watching it any more.
Overall rating - C+
