The lead Rachel MacAdams reminds me of Melissa George a lot. It was 100 times better than I expected it to be. Some scenes are just WTF :lol:

Good luck, have fun, don't die. Bit mental but I loved it, Sam Rockwell is great in everything.

You cam tell its directed by Raimi with the gore and laughs in it.

 

Always good to look out for evil dead references too.

See of you can spot Bruce Campbell when you watch it 😁

Went to the Cinema last night, on my own, to watch Project Hail Mary.  I have read the book, and this is my favourite film I have seen for years. 

 

I am not a Ryan Gosling fan, but he was good in this - I laughed and I was also quite emotional at a few points.  And the film looked amazing. 

 

9/10  ... Not sure what it needed to make it a 10 but I will defo watch this again.

Did you write your review before you actually watched it? It's not really a romance but a film more about the sexual dynamics of consensually abusive relationships in the gay community.

Give 'Drive' and 'Crazy, Stupid Love' a watch. Two contrasting films but show how brilliant an actor he is. 👍

And the under appreciated classic The Nice Guys where he gets to show off his comedy chops to great effect. Great dynamic between him and Russell Crowe.

Nobody 2. One of the worst action films I've ever seen. I enjoyed the 1st one but this was just terrible.  I think I'm being fair in scoring it 2/10.

Dragonfly, iptv. 8/10. Really enjoyed this Brenda blethyn film where although very little happens, it's still very engrossing.  A  girl seeks to help her elderly neighbour when she sees the provision of council care is very poor. A bond forms until the elderly ladies son, played by Jason Watkins, suspects the young girl sees her meal ticket in life in the form of blethyn, so interferes and provokes the rage within the neighbour. What happened next was a bit like wtf because it seems to happen unexpectedly and brutally. Really liked this

Watched the Imitation Game yesterday finally as it had been on my watchlist for ages. 

 

Much like Hidden Figures, I really enjoyed the true story, overcoming adversity / prejudice aspect of the tale and even though we all knew the ending, it was still a fun watch. 


I find Benedict quite annoying and strange to look at - but gosh, he can carry a movie. Even in films like Starter for 10, he stole the show. 

 

A solid 7/10 as it was enjoyable and well made.  No real complaints other than a bit of 'nothing actually happens' in the movie!

I was in the Victor Hugo Deli on the corner of George Street and Castle Street and Shirley Henderson came in with another woman who looked like her sister. This was the Sunday after we beat Dundee at home.

A cure for wellness, 6/10,iptv. Started really decent and seemed an original film then towards the end ,things got silly and the climax was implausible and daft. Quite a long film at 2 and a half ish hours.

Went to the Dominion at lunchtime today to watch this. Some very good parts but it went on too long towards the end, I felt.

I saw Splitsville tonight at Cineworld for no other reason than it being the only vaguely adult movie on offer. Surprisingly engaging freewheeling romcom in which two couples get hopelessly entangled in half truths and petty jealousies to the detriment of their relationships. Very funny in parts with real easygoing chemistry between the four leads. Only unbelievable aspect is how two shallow dorks could end up with fantastic dream women like Dakota Johnson and Adria Arjuna.

Fancied this and was looking for it last night but couldn't find it. Probably because I was searching for Butterfly :levein2:

Mercy, starring Chris Pratt and Rebecca Ferguson. Cheap derivative futuristic crime thriller that is reminiscent of Minority Report and other films of the type. Starts off looking like it might be interesting but quickly devolves into a standard murder mystery.

 

4/10

Rewatched The Death Of Stalin. Such a great film with a brilliant cast. Now if I could only find a copy of The Red Monarch to watch. A 1980’s film about the end of Stalin’s time in power that must have been an influence on it. Lots of the same ideas like the different characters having strong regional accents to indicate the huge diversity of soviet politics running a massive country. 
 

Edit. Just found it on YouTube free to watch. That will be a little treat to myself when I have some time to watch it.

Happy Gilmore 2 

I loved the original at the time but wasn't expecting too much from this sequal

I was wrong. Very stupid humour but very enjoyable.

Crime 101 on Prime. Great cast and an enjoyable enough film, but thinks it's more profound than it is and the ending is disappointing
