My ignorance of this is pretty evident. It didnt spoil the film for us. Can I imagine it would for AC fans though

Actually it’s an interesting point . It didn’t spoil my enjoyment of the film really , I just perplexed by the casting , that’s all . I thought Soarise Ronan was outstanding and Sam Rockwell . Great chemistry between them 

[Harry Potter]

Vendetta, 2013,  Danny Dyer stars, A special ops officer, his mum and dad are killed by a gang and he goes after them, 8/10, good film but gory at times.

Collateral. Still good.

[Harry Potter]

"1922", 2017, Netflix, farmer kills wife so as to stay on farm, not a bad film 7/10.

[neilnunb]

Saw this at the Carnegie Hall, Dunfermline today.

 

Absolute bonkers.

 

Spoiler

Best bit was Irvine Welsh's character getting killed 😁

Loving Adults (Netflix)

 

9/10

 

High score but a very good twisty turny murder drama. Rare example of a film that makes you really think. My only slight criticism was the dubbing into English as its a Danish film but you get over it.

 

I started watching it and couldn't get over it. I don't know why they can't just subtitle it. The dubbing just ruins it.

His performance is really good. I liked the mum too however I wish I hadn't rooted for her as much. 😬

Really liked Kelly McDonald. Not so keen on this film though, didn’t seem like there was much depth to it at all

[ri Alban]

Serpico. One of the finest films ever produced.

[benny]

The Duke.

In 1961, a 60-year-old taxi driver steals Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London. He sends ransom notes saying that he will return the painting if the government invests more in care for the elderly.

The usual British movie starring Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren.

Well done and great performances from the above two.

7/10.

[Carl Fredrickson]

Smile.

 

/A few jump scare moments, similar story to other films. OK film 7/10

[Dawnrazor]

Prey.

6 / 10.

I thought it was ok, way better than the last offering.

[Tazio]

I just went to start watching Blonde on Netflix, the biopic of Marilyn Monroe. 
Sod that, it’s 2h 45m long! I’ll save it for a night when I remember to start watching it at an earlier hour. 

[Disser Pointon]

Ticket to Paradise - thought this would please the missus and I quite like Clooney but what an absolute pile of cack, hardly a laugh in it. 1/10

The trailer looks awful. I have an Odeon Limitless and will watch almost anything but I won't watch that.

[Kearney13]

Blonde.

I really enjoyed it.

Baffles me that people are in uproar about this movie but ok not being pi**ed off at that Jeffrey Dahmer Netflix show and will happily be proud and happy at watching that.

The actress that plays Monroe has a few excellent movies out highly recommend watching them.

If there wasn't so much use of her saying "daddy" to every male in the film it would be a 9/10.

8/10

Bullet Train

 

Absolute movie trash.

 

8.5/10

 

Sandra Bullock's face.

 

[Tazio]

The Batman. Don’t get the hype for this at all. One paced all the way through with no variety of mood in it either. The Bruce Wayne parts are awful as well with him portrayed as some sort of depressed goth. And as is often the case now it’s way too long.

I turned it off, turgid style over substance.

Probably why they are not going ahead with the 2 planned sequels.

I enjoyed it, tho I missed the end.

[Americana]

Watched Bullet Train at the weekend with pretty low expectations. Was pleasantly surprised. Some comedy gold and Joey King is eye candy of the highest order. 8/10

 

Also watched The Greatest Beer Run Ever with Zac Efron , pretty entertaining non fiction about a guy going to Vietnam to bring his friends a beer in a warzone. Watchable 6.5/10

[Pans Jambo]

Help. 
 

Netflix

 

Jodie Comer and Steven Graham. 

About a care home in the Liverpool area struggling to cope at the start of the covid pandemic.

 

Both excellent performances.
Jodie as the new carer and Steven playing a guy with early on-set dementia in a retirement home where she works. 
The overall message about the shocking way the government treated care homes during the pandemic. 

A lot better than it sounds.
Excellent.
8.5/10. 

[Jamhammer]

Anyone seen Moonage Daydream?

[Disser Pointon]

Bullet Train. Popcorntastic! 8/10 🤣

😅 Hellraiser is one of my favourite films, it's getting to me that's Hellraiser 2022 is available and I cant see it.

[Muppetboy]

The original was awesome, this is a bit watered down but the female pinhead is a nice twist in the casting.

There’s a film called barbarian I’m desperate to see, just since you and I have been commenting on classic horror films such as hellraiser

It is.

 

On the back of watching I’ve googled his story and the film appears accurate.

 

Nothing but admiration for a guy with everything (tragically not in his eyes) to life for to go “fexkit I’m out of here”. and go on an adventure.

 

What a bloke!!

 

 

[Disser Pointon]

The Dammed United. Don't know why I've never watched this before, really enjoyed it.

[mrmarkus1981_1]

Significant Other - Utter pish.

Mr Garrigans Phone - Pish, not a horror

Luckiest Girl Alive - Ok, 6/10

The Fall...sum of all my fears ! Hate heights!!

 

Enjoyed the film though
