Baby Steps (2015)

Not bad.

IMHO, the best thing about this show is Gua Ah Leh's performance, easily one of the year's best. She brings this whole movie up one notch.

Would have love to see the story told more from the POV of the parent.

The two male leads weren't that strong together and their intimate scenes came across as awkward to me.

Love Chrisanne Eastwood's bit part in this. :)

Straight Outta Compton (2015)

Intense. More of education than entertainment for me.

Lost in Hong Kong - 港囧 (2015)

Bad movie + talking audience = horrible experience

Bridge of Spies (2015)

Nice! Has the usual bits of US ra-ra but Tom Hanks and Mark Rylance are oh so good here.

"Would that help?" :)

The Martian (2015)

Don't really like. Was only an okay film + watched with some horrible audiences making soft noises during the screening.

The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2015)

The critically acclaimed mature actors were good. The storyline not so. Dev Patel's performance was not helped by the shallow storyline, IMHO.

Love & Mercy (2015)

Was okay. Won't say I really dig it that much. Watched on plane.

The Social Network (2010)

Watched on plane. Gripping and tightly edited. Great performances.

The Walk (2015)

Needs to be watched on IMAX 3D, IMHO. :)

Hocus Pocus (1993)

Was okay. Think I enjoyed it more on hindsight and when I watched it more than 2 decades ago.
