I had emergency surgery and as a result it looks like I will be zonked out on oxys for the next week. Never had these, what are some good movies to watch in this condition? (lemmy.world)

Nothing with too many hearty belly laughs, it was abdominal surgery.

Priest. I recommended it in a terrible movies thread. It's Paul Bettany and Karl Urban in a cowboy/ronin/faith-based militia versus vampires film. Critics gave it 16% fresh.

...... seriously. Look at this.

    Seems odd they'd both end up in the same crappy movie together in that year. May not be remembering movie years well but Urban was least in Star Trek and Bettany in Marvel even if only as a voice but assume the plan was to make him Vision from the start.

    Was it entertaining at least? It sounds like it could be a fun watch, in theory....like the synopsis of Red Letter Media's Best of the Worst movies probably do.

    It's based on a comic series, so the bones are good and the critics are all weenies. I ♡ crappy derivative action schlock.

    I won't say it's always my thing but sometimes a plain action movie with few cheesy lines is all you're looking for. Definitely saw enough Chuck Norris in the 80s to confirm that.
