Another not great week for new movies. Call of the Wild did pretty well. (I have it an A in my review, partly for sentimental reasons.) The Peeple gave Call of the Wild a respectable 8.0 After-movie rating, up 0.9 points from the 7.1 Expectation-rating. That’s not going to win any awards, but it’s a solid showing.
Besides that, we had two forgettable movies. Or at least according to the Peeple’s Poll results, people will wish they could forget them. Both The Lodge and Brahms: The Boy II performed under expectations. RunPee Sis was looking forward to both movies, but her movie review of The Lodge and Brahms: The Boy II were both D+.

Sonic the Hedgehog remains a pleasant surprise. (Read the review here: B+.) The After-movie rating held steady at 7.7, but its Expectation rating dropped by 0.1 points (down to 6.5). That means its improvement over expectation only improved — up 1.2 points. Compared to most movies, that’s a much larger gap of improvement and will likely remain as one of 2020’s surprise hits of the year.
Of course, 1917 remains the highest-rated movie in the Peeple’s Poll so far this year and is still one of the most viewed movies in the RunPee app. There’s no doubt that it will be among the highest rated movies for the entire year. Ford vs Ferrari was the 2nd highest-rated movie of 2019, with a 8.7 After-movie rating. (Avengers: Endgame achieved a staggering 9.2 After-movie rating that may never be beaten by any movie.)
Who rated Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker higher, men or women?
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
