I want to go see a movie, but I can't decide between Joker, Zombieland 2, and Gemini Man. What do you think?
Well, are you in the mood to laugh or do you want something more serious?
I usually prefer bigger, more serious movies when I see them in a theater. Comedies usually work just as well on the small screen, so I usually wait for them.
Ok, well Zombieland might have some action, but you're right it will probably work just as well on the small screen.
So, Joker or Gemini Man then.
Of those two, Joker has the better reviews.
True, but I've liked plenty of movies that didn't initially receive good reviews.
Ok, well what draws you to Gemini Man?
It's an interesting concept, and I like Will Smith in Sci-Fi roles.
It might be pretty good on a big screen, but is it something that you could wait on, or do you want to see it now?
Good question. I don't know. What about Joker?
Great reviews, good atmosphere, and it's a bit longer so you'll probably feel like you've gotten your money's worth.
Maybe, but something about Joaquin Phoenix puts me off. I also don't like the idea of using mental illness as an excuse for a villain.
Ok, well then you're probably safe going with Gemini Man and waiting on the others.
Spiffy, I think we have a winner.
Even if the movie is a little lacking, the sfx on a big screen should make it worth seeing in the theater.
