JudyJudyJudy Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 I re watched “ Reds “ again on tv tonight . It’s about the writer John Reed ( Warren Beatty ) and his involvement in the Russian revolution of 1917 . Reed is the only American buried in the Kremlin . It’s a epic film mainly centred on his life with his writer wife Louise Bryant ( Diane Keaton ) and how they got involved in the RR . Good performances from them and an Oscar winning turn from Maureen Stapleton who played the social activist Rosa Goldman (incredible life that Woman led ) 8/10 Quote

Great performances from Michael Douglas and Matt Damon. Liberace wasn't my thing but fascinating insight into showbiz and what it can do to people. Yes saw it a couple times . It’s brilliant . Both actors were brilliant. It’s a funny and tragic film at the same time Quote
rudi must stay Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Sweet Virginia Slow and steady thriller on netflix. If you're after something slow and atmospheric give it a shot. It's an easy watch 7/10 Quote
rudi must stay Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 The Occupant Spanish film on Netflix, it's been dubbed and dubbed quite well. I thought it was pretty good, the main lead puts in a creditable performance 7/10 Quote

Ron Burgundy Posted January 25, 2021 Posted January 25, 2021 I watched a documentary on Amazon called Viet Nam - an American Holocaust. Some pretty grim footage and the confessions of some soldiers about their war crimes was just disgusting. I didn't realise just how little I knew about it. Quote

luckyBatistuta Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 Watched two Clint Eastwood films over the last couple of nights. The Mule...good movie, like a wee true story 7/10 Gran Torino...another good one from Mr Eastwood, had a few genuine laugh out loud moments. 7.5/10 Age is a horrible thing😞 Quote
mrmarkus1981 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Brothers by Blood, bloody awful film Quote
luckyBatistuta Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Watched these two recently, nothing amazing, but both worth a watch Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile The Aftermath Between a 6 and a 7 for both Quote
rudi must stay Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 All Day And A Night Had this on in the background. Seemed a strong film with strong performances. On Netflix 7/10 Quote

Der Kaiser Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Bad Boys for Life One of the worst movies I've ever watched. Complete opposite of the original. Presume it was purely a cash cow for Lawrence. Quote

Carl Fredrickson Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 The Dig on Netflix. Based on the true story of Basil Brown who carried out an archaeological dig in Suffolk just at the start of the second world war. A slow paced film with a wonderful script and good acting. I really enjoyed it and would give it 8/10 Quote
rudi must stay Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 High Flying Bird Slick and intelligent this sports agent movie on Netflix is brilliant 10/10 Quote

NANOJAMBO Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 God Bless America (2011). On lookmovie.io Considering it's 10 years old , it's a very apt social commentary on the state of the US, in fact it's bang on the money. A guy & a young girl go on a shooting spree (the bit where the Fox-News-type guy gets taken out would probably have people clapping & cheering now). There's some good acting and brilliant moments from the script writers , especially when the characters are talking about who they'd like to erase from society. It's a very dark comedy IMO Quote
