HMFC01 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) Becky 8/10 Thought provoking, dramatic, disturbing. I think you could watch it afew times just to see the bits you might have missed upon reflection. There is definitely something to take from it. Not for everyone if you're easily disturbed by graphic scenes. Although it still comes out as a family movie, just not for kids. Stars Kevin James in an unusual role. Buffaloed 7/10 Another thought provoking film. Some entertaining bits. Suppose to be a comedy as well. More drama than comedy. Little laughs. Still decent though.

Tazio Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri. I’ve been meaning to watch this since it came out and eventually got around to it.

HMFC01 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Three billboards is a very good movie indeed. I recently watched Adventures of Rufus: The Fantastic Pet thinking it was going to be some spectacular animation movie for the majority wider viewers. Turned out it is a kids movie ☺. Probably age seven under. Although it wasn't too bad for some entertainment. There was a scene that was very good I will post on the scenes thread. Although you're best to watch it from the start to get the best of it, no cutting through. 7/10. Watched Ice Age 1 and 2 Recently again. 10/10 for both. Brilliant stuff.

I don't know if people were expecting the ghost of John Belushi or for it to be less stupid than the first one, but I enjoyed it. I treated it as a new film, and like you say disengaged my brain and went along for the ride. Maybe I need to see this after all.

Tazio Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Just finished One Night In Miami on Amazon Prime. Based on a stage play it’s a fictional story of Malcolm X, Cassius Clay (as he is in the film), Sam Cooke, and Jim Brown in a hotel room in Miami the night Clay beat Sonny Liston to the title. X has called them together to discuss as the most successful black men in their fields he can use them to influence people. Interesting film with great acting from all the cast. 7/10 it would have been an 8 if they’d got them in the hotel room quicker and made the set up a bit shorter but that a minor point.

SMJ_1874 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 The Bad Samaritan on Prime is worth a watch. David Tennant plays a good part and I can see why he was the ideal choice to play Dennis Neilson in the recent true crime drama on tv. It had the Mrs jumping out her seat a few times.

luckyBatistuta Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Just Before I Go Directed by Courtney Cox (Friends) and starring Seann William Scott (Stifler) After reading that combination I was debating whether to watch it or not. I like stupid humour, so I gave it a go and was quite surprised, I actually found it quite funny. I would recommend it as an easy watch and a good little laugh here and there. Also worth a watch for the fact it stars Olivia Thirlby (Goliath TV Series) She’s not normally my type, but the more I see her, the more she grows on me, gorgeous. 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NANOJAMBO Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I just re-watched (is that a word ?) That Sinking Feeling on BBC iPlayer after what must be 40 years. It's funnier than I remember and when you consider the 4 main "actors" were all unpaid amateurs , Bill Paterson did a great job. Some genuinely LOL moments and a depressing reminder of how bad Glasgow was back in the 70s. Solid 7/10. PS The film had terrific critical acclaim on it's release but when released in USA it was dubbed in Edinburgh accents 😄 - some of the stuff is really hard to understand.

It’s brilliant , so many twists and turns in the plot and great performances from Anthony Perkins . Vera Miles and Meg Tilley . It’s a great homage to Hitchcock and has some set pieces the old master would be proud of . The ending is brilliant too . 9/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
