Magic Mike 7/10

would’ve been better without all the back up strippers, just Mike the kid and MM.

 

Serenity (2019) 6/10
Agree with most other reviews on this, First half was good until the stupid change in script.

Angel of Mine - 3/10

 

Really poorly written, you tell yourself why didn’t you do this sooner and save yourself of all the heartache and emotional distress you went through.

 

WHY

 

 

[cochyn]

Schindler’s List.

 

Was hanging Sunday so decided to have a slump in front of a long film I’d not seen before. It’s undoubtedly a cultural landmark and one that describes humanity in the modern era more vividly than almost any other artwork. 

It’s prescient given we now -again- live in times where our politics and media hammer wedges into the the perceived differences between us all to drive us further apart. This film shows us where this can end. That said there’s the usual Spielbergian tropes that underpin the narrative in amongst the raw moments. It’s the balance that makes this a great film as well as a parable.
 

9/10

Animal Kingdom

 

An Australian movie from back in 2010, features at least 3 now recognisable actors. At the time at least two of them may have been lesser known. I have not seen any mention of this film at all, which is surprising for two reasons.

 

1) It's fucking BOSS

2) It has also been made into a TV series that is currently on Amazon Prime in it's third season. It also has great reviews.

 

If you enjoyed the first season of Bloodlines on Netflix you'll definitely enjoy this. If you enjoy tense, taut thrillers you'll definitely enjoy this. If you like good movies, you'll definitely enjoy this.

I also watched this today, as amazingly I'd never actually watched it before. I did enjoy it, although it's very long at over 3 hours. Great movie and glad I watched it. Perhaps Trump and Johnson would do well to watch what a man can achieve when unexpectedly given power.

I am surprised you haven't seen this before now or the 3 series based on the film but set in the US instead of Oz.

Diner - 8/10. I loved this film in my teens but haven’t seen it in at least 25 years. Anyway, I bought the Blu-ray and it’s still really good. Set in 1959, it’s about six friends in Baltimore and the way their lives revolve around the diner, talking shit and eating French fries with gravy. Great cast, great dialogue and all about nothing much.

Captive 2/10

 

Boring and weak

The Courier - 3/10. Lamentable action film in which Olga Kurylenko tries to protect a witness from some low rent mercs sent to eliminate him. The entire budget appears to have gone into the pockets of Kurylenko and Gary Oldman. You can tell this by the fact it’s set almost entirely in a car park, and they’ve had to resort to getting the crew to draw straws to see who gets to play some lawyers in a couple of courtroom scenes. Kurylenko and Oldman dial it in, the script is laughably bad, and the other actors look like stuntmen having a day in the sun. The three points are for a couple of decent fist fights. Swerve.

Beware of Mr Baker, great documentary (warts and all) of the genius/lunacy of Ginger Baker. 8.5/10.

No Country For Old Men - 9/10

 

Been rewatching a few films from the last decade or two lately, such as The Hurt Locker and Inception. I followed suit with No Country and it like the aforementioned is even better on 2nd viewing. Top, top stuff and this one is arguably the pick of the bunch.

Yeah he's brilliant. Totally forgot Woody Harrelson was in it and he never fails to improve a movie.

Tickled...HBO Documentary into an unusual 'sport' which leads to a very strange investigation. Very good documentary and it certainly didn't go where I expected it to go. 8/10
