Saw this last night. Very good, in my opinion. Joe Pesce is outstanding.

The one movie that makes Plan 9 From Outer Space look like Citizen Kane --

A truly & deeply horrible movie.  I watched the Rifftrax version of this and have to agree with their assessment of the film's heroes in their battle against the Psychlos:  "It's like the Allman Brothers Band as Special Ops guys".

It holds the record with nine razzie awards, including "worst film of our first 25 years." It's so awful, it gives awful a bad name.

It took me a while to get past the reverse aging technology or whatever they call it, a little freaky, but overall a good movie. Agree 100% with you on Pesci.

Did everyone but me know Pesci was a singer:  https://thebluemoment.com/ ?

I did but that was from an interview I saw years ago. I don't think that many people knew until he did the recording with Adam Levine.

Joey DeFrancesco knew and recorded a CD with him (using the alias "Joe Doggs") years ago:

I actually saw him sing in an obscure 1982 German film Dear Mr. Wonderful ! Not sure just why I saw it...I think I had (1983) just moved to NYC, discovered the Film Forum cinema, and that was playing.

A Rainy Day In New York - Woody Allen (2019)

 

Flimsiest of storylines with 20ish youngsters coming on all Noel Coward like.

That said, it's a really beautifully shot film with the true star NYC.

Shot in Sony digital.

Mr Smith Goes To Washington - Frank Capra (1939)

 

Stagecoach - John Ford (1939)

Doctor Sleep - Mike Flanagan (2019)

Convincing and held up well until the final part, which I thought was a mistake.

I like the director and would recommend his earlier Oculus, which is a terrific and undermentioned horror classic.
