1971fozzy Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) RUN - Netflix Watched this and it was about a teenager Chloe who is raised by her mother in total isolation. Her mother has totally controlled her since she was born but she starts to explore her mother's secrets. decent flick with plenty twists and some sweaty palm moments. A bit like Misery 7/10 Edited May 9, 2021 by 1971fozzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenaciousdandy Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Benny loves you 7/10 for pure enjoyment (acting and plot is stupid) A really cheesy horror comedy that is great if your not looking for a serious film (might help to be drunk while watching it 🤣) I wasn't tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I also saw Godzilla v Kong this week. Utter shite in the best possible way.

Vlad Magic Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Watched The Imitation Game” with Benedict Cumberbatch the other night. Great performance from Benedict portraying the hugely influential Alan Turing as he attempted to break the Nazi Enigma code during the 2nd World War. He was also homosexual which back then was not acceptable. Fantastic film if you haven’t seen it. 9/10 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much reduced capacity. Seats booked online with loads unavailabl due to distancing. I go to Odeon Wester Hailes (staff are nice, closer to me and loads of parking...) and there is food available. My kids take their own sweets and I got a tea from Costa. Tracj & trace, hand sanitisers and you have to wear you mask at all times other than when you are in your seat. Toilet numbers are restricted - which is strange as all it does is form a queue. ie the gents has 3 stalls and only the one at the far right can be used. I though (probably wrongly) that the middle trap could have been closed and the other two left available. This is the same as after lockdown 1.
