Allied

Brad Pitt teams up with an unknown woman French resistance fighter to assassinate a high level Nazi officer in this WWll drama. Once their job is completed they marry, have a child and  he continues to work for the Canadian air force only to be told by his superiors that his wife may be a German spy. Is she or isn't she is the meat of this movie. A couple of very unusual scenes in this spy caper but over all a somewhat dull movie. 2 bananas

Arrival

Amy Adams stars as a linguist brought on by the army to try and communicate with  aliens who have arrived in huge egg shaped space ships. Interesting in the fact that communication is so totally different, exactly what it should be from a foreign visitor. Good, fun Sci-Fi movie.  3 bananas

Hacksaw Ridge

True WW2 story of solider who enlists but refuses to carry a gun hoping to become a medic. What follows is the usual rough stuff in training camp but the heroics of private Doss under fire retrieving 75 men left to die is truely amazing. No big name stars makes this movie shine. 3 1/2 bananas

Inferno

Tom Hanks continues his role as professor Langston. This time he is on the trail of a virus so deadly that half the world population will die. Obviously there are evil forces out there doing battle to prevent Hanks from stopping the virus contamination. Hard to figure out who is the good guy for a long time. Beginning and ending are heart stoppers. 2 bananas
