The Duke of Burgundy

Per Rotten Tomatoes:

Day after day, Cynthia (Sidse Babett Knudsen) and Evelyn (Chiara D'Anna) act out a simple yet provocative ritual that ends with Evelyn's punishment and pleasure. As Cynthia yearns for a more conventional relationship, Evelyn's obsession with erotica quickly becomes an addiction.

Per my GF and I:

It felt very long, heavily stylized, too many art-house type camera shots, brief erotic moments and was confusing at times.

The critics gave it 95%, viewers gave it 77% and we gave it about a 50%.

It is On Demand.

Everly, kind of like a Kill Bill flick. Genesis and I liked it.

An action/thriller centered on a woman who faces down assassins sent by her ex, a mob boss, while holed up in her apartment.

A Most Violent Year

Set during the winter of 1981 -- one of the most crime-ridden of New York City's history -- A MOST VIOLENT YEAR is a drama following the lives of an immigrant and his family as they attempt to capitalize on the American Dream, while the rampant violence, decay, and corruption of the day drag them in and threaten to destroy all they have built.

Overview thanks to Rotten Tomatoes: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_most_violent_year/

Starring Oscar Isaac as Abel Morales, Jessica Chastain as Anna Morales, David Oyelowo as Lawrence and Albert Brooks.

It was a really thoughtful, well-written and excellently acted movie. We both thought it was really good. We had never seen Oscar Isaac before and he was very good as the lead.

I'm watching The Interview right now On Demand.

It's pretty silly. I like it.

Stars: Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace, & James Gandolfini (his last movie)

Bob Saginowski finds himself at the center of a robbery gone awry and entwined in an investigation that digs deep into the neighborhood's past where friends, families, and foes all work together to make a living - no matter the cost.

It moves very slow, not many surprises either BUT we enjoyed it
