Yes, God, Yes - 5/10.

 

That boney lass from Stranger Things goes to a strict Catholic Camp & try’s to deal with the guilt of wanting to diddle herself.

 

It was Ok. 

 

[Scott_M]

Athlete A - 8/10

 

Netflix documentary uncovering the US Gymnastics Team, how it’s athletes are treated and that the team Dr would massage injuries by fingering the girls, the sick cunt. Shocking how it went on for so long and how the gymnastics organisation just turned a blind eye to it.

[Paul]

Children of Men - 8/10. Worryingly relevant post-apocalyptic film set in a crumbling Britain. Very good. 

[mattyq]

Danger Close

Vietnam war flick following the Anzac troops. It's on Netflix

Ive been close to jibbing off Netflix as the vast majority of content seems like tat.

This has restored my faith a little. Cracking film 8/10 flaming gallahs

[Scott_M]

I didn’t think I’d ever see them so I acquired the Bill & Ted films.

 

Whatever the first one is called is shite. 3/10.

 

Whatever the second one is called is decent. 7/10.

The Last Temptation of Christ

 

Scorcese's greatest ever film. Sublime recreation of Kazantzakis' powerful novel, telling of Christ's triumph over evil even in His lowest moment.

 

One of my favourite ever films, Keitel is amazing as Judas, Peter Gabriel's score hits all the right notes, and the last temptation itself is incredible.

 

Bona fide masterpiece.

 

10/10

 

Need to watch that.

[Scott_M]

Behind the Candelabra - No score.

 

It wasn’t that it was bad per say, it just wasn’t my bag so I turned it off.

I’ve never seen it but that is a bold claim.

 

I’m going to acquire it tomorrow now.

Just in case, it's fucking shite.

The invisible man, the new version. Not normally a fan of new takes of existing films but this is a case of being superior in almost every way to the original adaptation with Kevin Bacon. It's Eggsellent. 8.3/10

It’s insanely good film making, kinda drifts, for me, but cinematically beautiful. 
 

You can tell it’s a genuine labour of love.

 

Not going to lie though, I saw Toni Erdmann the night after and completely forgot about The Last Temptation... until I read this as Toni Erdmann made me think about no other film for about a month and I didn’t want to talk about anything else. 
 

I genuinely forgot this film existed until you jogged my mind.
 

Shame, I’ll rewatch.

Really enjoyed that. Not normally something I’d bother with but it was ace. 7.75 / 10 

[John102]

Just starting with American Pickle.

 

Be surprised if this sees higher than a 4

Poltergeist - 10/10. Still perfect after all these years.

I wonder how much Tobe Hooper actually directed it seeing as Spielberg did everything to get that movie made and it was only the ET contract that disallowed him from directing it?

Watched that “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” a few days ago. It’s a weird one as I think I was very close to thinking it was shite, but for whatever reason it swung me the other way and when it ended I realised that I quite enjoyed it. It was probably the acting jobs done by the protagonists which I thought were really good. The end was overly and unnecessarily violent and I thought somewhat spoiled what was an interesting enough human story to that point; although I get he was trying to do the Hollywood overtly visual screen violence of the 1970s. But all in all a positive experience. 
 

7/10

[JohnnyH]

Also watched that Ad Astra with Brad Pitt also.  Decent. That’s kind of it really. Fairly slow but not in a slow way, but still slow. Very simple story, but told quite well. TV movie with a big budget. 
 

6.5/10. Don’t over think it.

So in your opinion Excellent Adventure is bogus and Bogus Journey is Excellent? 
Well there’s a twist I didn’t see coming.

I am far from a fan of Keanu Reeves but those Bill and Ted films(which one is he?) were made for him.

I’m afraid your all wrong and the correct answer is The Blues Brothers.

I don't think of The Blues Brothers as a musical, which is mad, but you are correct.

Well he’s basically playing himself in these movies. And he’s Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan. Esq.

I loved it, definitely one of the best sci-fi movies of recent times. The main guy is the spit of Tom Hardy.

Ha I know mate when it started I turned to my bird and went "we are fucking this off if thats Tom Hardy" and for the first 30 seconds neither could work out if it was him or not. He's just a bit too skinny to be Tom Hardy. Absolute ringer though. Nicely set up for a 2nd one as well.
