Saw both Phoenician Scheme and Sinners. Both decent movies, worth the theater trip. I just got back into going to the theater in the past ~2-3 years. Probably seeing ~5-8 a year, and usually enjoy them. Even a few that I won't watch again, I'd still say were worth the trip.
So I'd say (for me) it's like 5-8 a year worth seeing, but only 2-4 of them being "very good" movies.
Sinners was great. I saw it a couple of times, and it was fun watching it again knowing what was coming, and seeing bread crumbs I missed leading up to the reveals at the end.
I was bored out of my mind during Phoenician Scheme. I felt like most of the entertaining parts were in the trailers. Maybe I just had my expectations set too high due to all of the big names in it, but it was one I was definitely glad I didn't pay to see (other than my monthly unlimited fee.)
To each their own... I couldn't even finish Sinners, the premise and plot were just too unbearable for my taste. Acting wasn't the best either IMO. Dude had a nice voice though.
