Momentum Generation.

 

Retrospective about the legendary 90’s surf crew who started out all dossing together at their friends’ Hawaiian beach house, featuring tons of old footage and present day interviews.

 

Aside from documenting the surfing itself, how they went from doing it purely for its own reward to professional tour competitions and fiercely rivalling each other to be the best in the world, it charted the relatable rise, fall, then rekindling through maturity of those once seemingly unbreakable adolescent friendship-family groups, which life getting in the way often tends to shred as everyone ages.

 

Life-affirming fare.  Hugely enjoyed it and will watch again.

Creed 2 - Another good entry in this series with plenty of callbacks to Rocky II and Rocky IV. Would've liked a bit more of Drago's relationship with his son and I wish the Rocky movies would ground themselves a little bit better in the grimier aspects of the boxing industry, maybe they'll do that in the next one, but otherwise it hit all the beats you'd want it to. 7.5 out of 10

Just watched the first 40 minutes of The Predator before turning it off. Amazed I lasted that long.

 

Jesus christ.

Training Day - 9/10

 

Haven't seen it for years, I remembered that it was brilliant but it's even better on 2nd viewing. Denzel is unbelievably good in this. 

Seen that a few times. Great film with excellent dialogue.

1/10

When I heard it was being made, I was excited. I watched the trailers and was just a bit underwhelmed. Looked lazy.

 

I was determined to watch it. I don't think I will bother as most critic reviews have given it a right old slaughtering.

[Section_31]

Passengers, 9/10.

 

Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence alone on a long haul space flight after his sleep pod malfunctions.

 

I was suprised how much I liked it, quite a simple story but a really interesting theme about loneliness and companionship. In fact, I finished watching it thinking it was quite beautiful. There, I said it.

[Stickman]

Venom 1/10 fuck me I can't believe this actually got made surely someone at some point during the making of it must have said "it's a bit shit this isn't it?"....

 

By the way I'm basing my score on the 20 minutes I managed to watch before pulling the plug

I loved it too. It got a lot of bad reviews (from critics) and after seeing it, I could not believe what people wrote.

Ha. I watched this last week and stuck it out to the end. If ever a film needed Nicolas Cage as the lead and been released in 1997 it would be a classic.

 

6/10. Best shit film I’ve seen in 20 years

I enjoyed it too. I’d probably give it 8/10. 

[Elite]

Passengers is very good, I really don't get the low ratings it got.

 

Mudbound - 7/10

Quite slow paced but very powerful, I know racism still exists but thank God we've moved on from those days.

Keeps coming up on Netflix that. I'll give it a go after that review.

Currently watching Enter the Dragon on channel 5. John Saxon's just popped up in a turd brown jumper - the '70s doesn't get better than this.

 

11/10

Caught the last 45 minutes. Just fucking brilliant isn't it. Cool as you like. That said, I clocked how bad the make-up is on Bruce lee after Mr Han has slashed at him a few times. it looks like it was done with a felt tip pen.

 

12 volleys to the grid out of 10.

Agree it was so shit it knew it. Get to the choppers best the best bit.

 

Venom now that was shit 2/10

I’ve no idea what Passengers is about or if it’s any good, but the film title reminds me of The Passenger (Nicholson), which is boss.

Tony goes to the pictures to see his movies. I would hazard a guess it's a no.

Not very often. I did in the 00s, when I still went the pictures regularly. The only films I really fancy this year are BlacKkKlansman and Widows (I liked the 80s television series). I’ll just watch them when they come down in price or are free on Amazon Prime, though.

Repped. Have you seen Colors (Penn and Duvall)? Similar type of thing.

Sounds right up my street that. Will have to search it out.

Widows is good but it's not a must see at the pictures, although it's where I saw it. I haven't seen BlacKkKlansman, I want to see that on the small screen.
