I just did a rewatch of Hostiles.

Man it is so good!

Last night I checked out Force of Nature: The Dry 2.

Yeah that was a mistake. I dig Eric Bana. The first movie, The Dry, was pretty good as was the book it is based on.

The Dry 2, just like The Dry is a murder mystery that also has a sub plot involving the Eric Bana’s character’s past. In the first movie the mystery was well done as was the back story and they were intertwined.

In this movie the murder mystery was too convoluted and the whole thing was very much a hodgepodge of Roshomon and a Hercule Periot story. Also the back story was kind of horseshit and so poorly shoe horned into the current day murder mystery.
