Watched Heat last night. Sensational film

[tokyowalnut]

Oppenheimer 9/10

 

Perhaps down to my ignorance, but I knew nothing of him or his backstory. I’m working my way through the book that was used as a reference for the film, that is also fantastic.

US Marine recruits are shown the bank gunfight as an example of how to perform fire&move and fast reloads. 

That's how good it is.

[Madjambo21]

Watched Blue Beetle at the cinema with my kid.

Thought it was a good laugh and not as bad as some of the recent superhero movies.

I always thought Rob Zombies retake on the original was the best one , everything after that was pretty tragic.

Land

 

Miserable drama with Robin Wright. I thought it was excellent and she was too

 

8/10

 

Hypnotic

 

Ben Affleck is terrible in this poor action drama

 

5/10

 

As always I have thrown an ambassadorial cloak over those so they can't be quoted

Not watched that yet. I think Greenland was the last one of his I caught. Den of Thieves is recommended too.

Seen them all. I like his pishy films. Especially the fallen movies. London, Olympus and Angel. But RocknRolla, Law abiding citizen and 300 are my favourite films of his.

I'm sure there was a recent release as a 'Sky Exclusive' about his wife being kidnapped. Will need to look it up though.

A Good Person

 

Big fan of Florence Pugh is the film good? Not really no

 

5/10

 

Plane

 

Gerard Butler stars in this plane crash movie. Butler is captivating in this as the films standout actor

 

6/10

 

[rudi must stay]

A Vigilante

 

Raw and unflinching in style I thoroughly enjoyed this film

 

7/10

[Disser Pointon]

Still, Michael J Fox documentary on Disney. Very poignant and full credit to him for the way he's dealt with it, especially after being diagnosed at such a young age. 7/10

[Americana]

Took the Sprog to see The Meg 2 : The Trench, pretty much what you would expect, but cant say no to a monster flick.

 

4/10

The Deepest Breath (Netflix).

great docufilm about the extreme sport of underwater diving and the true story of a diver and her relationship.

sounds boring but it is superb and a very touching tale.  
9/10

 

This was great.

[Muppetboy]

Last voyage of the demeter,  6/10. Atmospheric enough and a cool depiction of dracula but too slow and uneventful, and just the odd scare.

[rudi must stay]

Indiana Jones at the dial of destiny

 

Watched this today. It is a cold film, not a lot of warmth in the characters even Indiana. As a film I had no problems with the characters the woman is a free spirit but woman are these days, Mads played it very interesting in a great role he is a super actor. Good film entertaining and befitting of a great trilogy more so probably than Kingdom of the crystal skull

 

8/10

Didnt know he was in it. He is a great actor.

Sound of Freedom 9.5/10

 

Top tier 

[Tazio]

Watched Renfield tonight, good fun film taking a twist on the classic Vampire movie. 

[Class of 75]

Watched the Matrix 4. Deary me what a mess. Nowhere near as good as the first one 20 odd years ago.

[Vansen]

Equaliser 3

 

Really enjoyed this. Wouldn't say it was a brilliant film but it didn't have to be. Denzel is great and both he and the director have created an arc over 3 films where you care about the character. I find that quite rare in movies these days.

 

The film ties things up quite nicely so overall this was a solid 7/10.

Thought it was really good. As you say, it ties things up well. Actually think it’s my favourite of the three. No idea how it’s rated only a 15 though, some brutal death scenes.

 

8/10

Wasn’t sure about watching this at first, but quite enjoyed it, definitely worth a watch

The Little Things

 

Here I am again with a wildly different score to everyone else. But it reminded me of Se7en which is a great film

 

8/10

 

[micole]

Currently watching Capricorn 1, forgot what a great movie it is

[JudyJudyJudy]

This is a great wee video of William Freidkin talking about what his favourite films are.  He recently died. He was an outstanding director . " The Exorcist" " The French connection " etc  His choices of films are superb. RIP

Barbie

 

Really funny

 

8/10

[Harry Potter]

The Mother, 8/10, 2023, Jennifer Lopez, not a bad film, had a story. Netflix.

[henrysmithsgloves]

Warriors on five catch-up,load of rubbish film...but still a favourite of mine 9/10.

 

[Muppetboy]

Talk to me, 4/10. Absolute horseshit, I had high hopes but story is non existent and isn't remotely creepy

[Malinga the Swinga]

Enjoyed Copshop on Netflix with Gerard Butler. Few twists, loads of action and decent ending which made it enjoyable.

I'd say 7 out of 10.

Also enjoyed Freaks on Netflix. Story of downtrodden fry cook who discovers she has powers and she isn't alone. Another 7/10
