Finally got around to to watching Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3. I liked it a lot. Rented it on Amazon Video.
Before that, I watch 'The 5th Wave' which I think falls under the context of OPs question. Rented on Amazon Video. Garbage movie. Saw it because I saw a single clip of the movie that looked good. It was the only part of the movie that was good.
And before that one, I watched 'Smile'. Dumb, lazy, predictable writing. Rented on Amazon Video.
Before that, I watched 'The Edge of Sleep'. Very good series. Also Amazon Video.
Finally, 'The Menu', also Amazon Video. I liked it.
I saw all that for probably the cost of a single movie theater ticket. A matinee ticket right now, for my local theater (ordered online) is $17.60. I think the rent price of each of those movies was maybe $4 and 'Edge of Sleep' is free.
5th wave started strong with a bit of promise, then quickly degenerated into a hot steaming turd.
