Deepwater Horizon got good reviews - https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/deepwater_horizon

I've already ordered it on 4K Blu Ray, as I certainly liked Peter Berg's last film. And I'm going to give Allied a shot - it's still a Fresh Tomato.

No interest in the others on the list though.

'Alice Through the Looking Glass' is an older movie. Had it on Blu ray and sold it.
