Welcome back for Part 2 of my Top Movies of 2020 list! If you missed Part 1 here is a link  HLS Top Movies of 2020 Part 1  . In this blog I will be going through 80-51, this is the section that ranges from controversial to sometimes just blah movies that should have been better.  Now with every movie I am going to be putting what I personally think is the safest grading scale out there, the IMDB user rating score: 1-5        = Horrible waste of time 5.1-6.4  = Risky might be good might be garbage 6.5-7.4  = Good solid movie 7.5+      = Movie that is generally very well liked by everyone Now this is not a gold standard but is a good starting point, on to the movies. On to the movies! 80. The One and Only Ivan (Disney+) - IMDb Score: 6.7      This is just a simple heartfelt Disney movie that is essentially just a tv movie given a higher budget so it could afford bigger actors like Bryan Cranston, Sam Rockwell, Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren and Danny DeVito. Simple and fun, do not expect a

       Reading through the Gotham Award winners got me thinking about a few things Best Feature      Happy First Cow got a Best Feature nomination but I am very confused by some others.       The Assistant is going to be the movie that just racks up nominations but never wins anything because everyone will throw it on their ballots as a "hey look at me" pick. For those of you who do not know the movie is essentially the Harvey Weinstein movie from the perspective of the assistant to a big movie producer, it is a very okay movie absolutely nothing special or ground breaking.      Relic!?!?!? I mean I really enjoyed the movie but this SHOCKED me to see it was nominated for BEST FEATURE of 2020     And then the other two noms were the usual suspects of Never Rarely Sometimes Always and the Gotham Award winner for Best Feature, Nomadland. Still have not been able to see Nomadland I can't wait. shocked no Minari, Trail of the Chicago 7 and another movie I will get to in a seco

Welcome back to HLS Movie takes, 2020 was a very hectic year for everyone and movies are one of the greatest escapes from life. Sadly though movie theaters were not able to stay open most of last year so we had to stay safe inside and watch movies from home. 2020 was the year without giant blockbusters but it was still a year of great movies! Sadly this first list are not those great movies. Here is the worst of the worst of 2020 in film (of the 92 movies are saw this year) Now with every movie I am going to be putting what I personally think is the safest grading scale out there, the IMDB user rating score: 1-5        = Horrible waste of time 5.1-6.4  = Risky might be good might be garbage 6.5-7.4  = Good solid movie 7.5+      = Movie that is generally very well liked by everyone Now this is not a gold standard but is a good starting point, on to the movies. 92. Downhill - IMDB Score: 4.8 This movie and what was presented to be this movie in the trailers are entirely different things.

 CFB Playoffs National Championship  3 Ohio State vs 1 Alabama 7pm ESPN O/U: 75.5 (3O - 3A) UNDER Winner: Alabama -315, -9 Well here we are folks, the final game of the college football season. It’s been a wild ride through 2020 and I’m just grateful that the college football season actually happened and was successful. Pour one out for the idiots of the world like Christine Brennan who when the Big 10 decided to play this season called it the “Darkest Day in Big Ten History”. They played, we betted, and aside from a couple game moves here or there the season went pretty smoothly. Football provided us the great escape from life for a few hours each Saturday and I’m thankful for that.  Darkest Day In Big Ten History  (yes this still exists) Now on to the game.  How Ohio State wins this game  Offensively it isn’t some 6 touchdown performance from Justin Fields like we saw versus Clemson, it’s Trey Sermon continuing his blazing run he has been on recently. Trey Sermons first 4 games this
