Carry-On: A new Christmas classic

[HawkOptimist]

Just watched Carry-On with Jason Bateman on Netflix. It’s right up there with Die Hard, Gremlins and Lethal Weapon as fantastic Christmas movie classics. Wham’s Last Christmas even makes a cameo. Fun for the whole family!

Really though, I was pleasantly surprised with how good this movie is. Think Die Hard meets Speed. Jason Bateman is such an underrated actor.

Not sure my heart could handle a Die Hard meets Speed.

Can't be worse than Red One

Jason Bateman is such an underrated actor.

Is he, though?

I put him somewhere between Chris Pratt and Pete Davidson.

It is like Breaking Bad meets Sons of Anarchy.

I just started getting into this band recently. This song, on that same album, juat blew me away. The rest of the band refused to sing harmonies on it. said it was too good with just Stills.

As the villain in this one, I thought he was great. Would like to see him in more roles like that. Far from Oscar worthy, but he plays a good bad guy.

Went back after watching it to read some of the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (86% positive), and it seems many agree it feels like older action thrillers like Die Hard or Speed. Worth watching if you have a few hours over the holidays.

Started to watch but stopped. Seemed like some bad directing, I was kinda yawning at the dialogue.

What I meant was, I don't think he's underrated. He's a great actor. I really enjoyed him and ozark.

Carry-on was below average. We watched Friday. It was mildly entertaining. How da fuk does a TSA employee get that much time away from his actual job and go unnoticed by his supervisor or fellow employees?

Sorry, it doesn’t belong in the same category as Die Hard and Gremlins.

Watching Black Doves right now. Really good so far.

Young provides one of the greatest rock guitar intros of all time here,... Love how this starts out sort of clumsy, and then Dallas Taylor finds the beat...
