I considered a few Disney movies when I was in the used books/movie store after my doctor's appointment today.
Then I remembered their fuckery around trans people and moved on.
I don't even feel all that great about buying used Disney crap at this point.
If it's in the bargain bin for $2, I might reconsider. At that point, I feel like I'm giving them the finger by paying so little.
Instead, I bought a Daniel Craig mystery thriller from 2011 that I had never heard of. I just checked the movie reviews. Critics totally panned it.
It's still better than Disney.

I assume it isn't Cowboys and Aliens 
Surely not The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, or Tintin, which was good but I wouldn't describe it as either a Daniel Craig movie or a mystery thriller.
Dream House? I've never heard of it either, and it has both Rachel Weisz and Naomi Watts in it so I'm not sure why I'm not watching it right now given my profoundly positive feelings toward both of them. You'll have to let us know how it is.
@intransitivelie It's Dream House. You're good!
I liked Cowboys and Aliens, Dragon Tattoo, and Tintin, btw.
@timberwraith
Cowboys and Aliens seemed like it might be just silly enough to be enjoyable, but I never followed through on that suspicion. I'll have to do so one of these days.
And I confess I just looked at Mr. Craig's filmography and eliminated impossibilities a la Sherlock Holmes
I hear good things about Knives Out etc. Have you seen those?
If you ever get the chance, Archangel is enjoyable enough, though it's a miniseries rather than a movie. Daniel Craig is pretty good in it and it's an interesting premise, if you like thriller-ish political dramas.
@intransitivelie I found Knives Out to be quite enjoyable. You should see it!
Thanks for the tip on Archangel. I'll check it out.
@timberwraith
It's on my list 
@intransitivelie I found Archangel, I think. It's listed as a TV movie rather than a miniseries?
@timberwraith
Huh. That's the one. I thought I saw it in two parts at least, possibly three, but maybe that was just how it was presented on Netflix. Or maybe the vagaries of translation from British to American television? Anyway, it's worth a watch if you're in the mood for some Russian thriller-ish-ness. It's probably available online somehow. I've gotten so out of the habit of looking for legal ways to watch things that I can't say
