Wife and I just saw The Holdovers.

Very good flick. Definitely unexpectedly serious for a Giamatti film.
 
Watched eps 4 and 5 of Monarch. It's a slog. It's a wild goose chase that feels small in scale and hasn't gotten very far through 5 episodes. The series also makes Monarch seem like a very small and ragtag outfit while in the G films it had scope and extralegal authority. The three main characters lack charisma and I'm ending up watching it for Kurt Russell mostly.

They are downright unlikable.
 
I just rebinged Reacher....forgot how enjoyable it was. Alan Ritchson was bred to play Reacher.

Ritchson was in another show I liked a lot -- Titans (the superhero show). I totally disliked him in that.

Odd how that happens.

Reacher is pure "dad" action.
Very one note, but does it very well.

This is what I plan to do before starting S2. He had great chemistry with Rosco.
 
After I finish this third episode of season 2. This way I'll have sweet dreams while I'm in my coma. :yo:

Knew he was going to be special after Blue Mountain State which if you don't remember was a very sophomoric almost R-rated comedy about a fictional college football team from 2010-11 (went three seasons).
 
One of those shows that a friend recommended. If you're into the humor like I described above of the Happy Madison type films that Sandler's crew did without him, it might be up your ally. Otherwise probably not.
I saw the trailer -- didn't look appetizing. Ritchson looked very young.
