True Story

 

Rubbish. So slow and a film lacking any warmth at all. Obviously not cheery material but that underlines a poor film in my opinion 

 

5/10

The Platform

 

New film on Netflix, Spanish language with subtitles. Thought it was really good, a prison movie of sorts featuring cannibalism amongst other delights. The ending didnt quite match the punch of the rest of the film but, overall, i really enjoyed it. 

 

8/10.

The Hunt

 

12 people awake unaware of their whereabouts and being hunted by some rich folks.

 

A couple of decent wipeout scenes and some early promise (also on the Bristol front)  but everything ended up in a big letdown 😞

It Follows.

 

Thought it was great on the first viewing years ago. 

Pretty shit now.

Hobbs and Shaw

 

The Idris Elba show as usual, what an actor. Fresh and energetic film too with plenty of humour and a nice soundtrack

 

8/10 (I didn't expect a fast and furious to be this good)

I will save you 90 mins and tell you the latest GRUDGE movie is so.

Loved the original and the Sarah Michelle Gellar one

 

I loved the Sarah Michelle Gellar version. Saw it in the cinema with the then gf. She spent half the film holding on to me. We both must have jumped at least half a dozen times during the film. Needless to say I scored in the end because she didn't want to go home on her own. :dribble:

Le Mans 66. Really good film and a couple of fantastic performances from Damon and Bale, Bale in particular. A few historical inaccuracies that only geek like me would notice but not enough to spoil it for me.

 

Spoiler

I have to admit as a historic motorsports nut I watched the whole thing with a slight feeling of dread knowing what happened to Ken Miles.

Brave is quite underrated. So many funny bits. My daughter loves it. Since the early Pixar movies there arent many animations that we havent seen. Coco is another favourite. I am always in bits at the end of it. 

 

Im enjoying some of the docs on it and look forward to watching a lot of the older Disney stuff I saw when I was young or havent seen.

Brave is a good laugh. I attended the world premiere (flash bassa) and everybody loved it, I was surprised it didn’t do better.

IIRC it felt like a B movie compared to other Pixar releases marketing wise

Le Mans 66 

what a great film. Really enjoyed watching it. Anyone got a decent sound set up is in for a treat as well as it sounds incredible in 7.1

Watched a couple last few days. 
The Hunt. Starts well and fades a little but decent enough way to kill an hour and half 7/10

The Gentlemen. Really enjoyed, good cast Hugh Grant really good in it 9/10


 

ps Anybody looking for a Video on demand service to help pass the time gives a shout. Works on any device. Thousands of movies, new and classic. Loads of tv shows too.

bloodshot 6/10 reasonable film that passed the time. but seemed to rehash old storylines. i have heard it is valiant comics trying to start their own cinematic universe

Posted

Mark of the Devil

 

New to Netflix, this Mexico based possession/exorcism fiasco is bad, really bad. 

 

2/10 (cinematography was good)

Villain 7/10

Craig Fairbrass of Rise of Footsoldier fame. 
You know what to expect I’d imagine but it’s decent enough. 

Posted

Anna. Another Luc Benson film based around a glamorous but deadly female main character. 

He really has jumped the shark and his films now are just the same themes rehashed and are all about how they look and not really decent content. 
5/10 it would be lower but the action sequences are very well done.

Really bleak film about a 12 year old kid living in extreme poverty in Beirut and how he wound up in prison.

The Last Full Measure

 

Wonderful true story about Airman William H. Pitsenbarger, his heroics during the Vietnam war and why he wasnt awarded a posthumous medal of honour. 

 

Well acted and treated sensitively, not only about the airman himself, but the effect on those he touched, saved and on their lives beyond the war. 

 

Loved it. 9/10.

A man finds out he can change the past and the future just by drawing it.

 

Quite possibly the worst film I’ve ever seen.

I, Tonya

 

7/10

 

Excellent black comedy about the Tonya Harding story on Netflix. Gave it a very strong 7 as unusually all the family liked it and the black humour was just what we needed. Also brutal and sad at the same time.

Ford v Ferrari - 9/10 Excellent (esp. Christian Bale)

 

21 Bridges - 6.5/10 Nothing new, but entertaining enough

Watched it a while back not expecting much but really enjoyed it. Margot Robbie was excellent as Harding.

American Beauty 

 

What a filmmaker Sam Mendes is. Very very interesting man (he has done so many great films that for me he gets the credit), this film is unique and absolutely correct in its character observations. Even more so than Road to Perdition, a favourite of mine but not by as much as it used to be 

 

10/10

In The Dark Side Of The Moon

 

Not bad, started great went downhill. Felt the lead actor was giving his all and put in a good shift

 

7/10

Bad Boys For Life

 

Very surprisingly, I found this stupid dumb film really, really enjoyable :)Much better than I expected it to be and Martin Lawrence gives a very likeable performance. 

 

8/10
