Ambulance 

 

Juergen Klopp plays the quirky chief of the LAPD hunting down master bank robber Jake Gyllenall in the worst transformers movie yet. 
 

Quite possibly the worst movie I’ve ever watched to the end. 
 

Michael Bay needs to be brought to The Hague for crimes against humanity.

 

Minus 1 billion. 
 

Birds fit as fuck but far too heavily made up to ne taken seriously.

Watched Jurassic thingy last night. That is 2hrs and 20 odd minutes of the same old shite that I’m not getting back. It’s the same as the others, just in slightly different places. She loved it, the gonk. 

 

This whole franchise needs to be extinct for the next 160 million years and that’s probably too soon a return to life.

 

4/10 at best. 

Watching Everything Everywhere all at Once, over the weekend.

Heard really good reports about this so can’t wait. 
Hope it’s not too time travely, me missus is not good with time shift films, which in turn has her constantly asking - who’s he? when’s that? where are they now? The Inception debacle come major kick off, is still a touchy subject in the House of Butty.

How many choppers in the sky going past the sun?

Ha. I know. I kept waiting for starsceeam to come and blast them out the sky.

 

Where did Juergen get that bag of Cheetos from during the chase

Who Killed The KLF? 

 

Documentary about Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty. Much craziness and made me laugh loads of times. Boss music obviously. I'm going to give it 23.

[Anubis]

Thor: Love & Thunder - 4/10. Lost the balance of jokes and seriousness, turned author into a walking joke rather than the odd bit of comic relief, and wasted Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. Bit of a misstep.

Yeah I wasn't overly impressed. Marvel need to take a step back as I think people are getting bored of them at the moment.

Love & Thunder- 3/10

 

Desperately wanted to be Ragnarok 2. The jokes feel flat and fell into too many of the Phase 4 traps

 

*SPOILER-ISH*

 

 

(Hero getting saved, sympathetic villan)

 

Just a whole load of nothing really

[TD_LFC]

Thor - Love and Thunder: As above, it's just ok.

 

Given the story of Gor it could have been darker and more focused on his journey rather than a Btec Ragnarok with Gor's origin wrapped up so early but the depiction of the Gods (including the god that set's his arc in motion) was too jarring.

 

Thor also has no development in this movie and, if anything, he's regressed back to the start of Ragnarok.

 

All the cool stuff seems to happen off screen.

 

 

[Oh Buoy]

The Father - 9/10 

 

Boss film this - film about dementia from the perspective of the people suffering from it. Such a clever film, highly recommend.

[Carvalho Diablo]

The Phantom of The Open

 

Brilliant little biopic of Maurice Flitcroft, the eponymous Phantom and a down to earth working class dad.

 

Mark Rylance is brilliant in the lead role, I laughed out loud countless times.

 

If you enjoyed Eddie The Eagle then you're guaranteed to feel the same way about this, a brilliant little feel good film.

 

8/10 Nodi Ezra Real Debrid

Scream (2022)

 

I'm a sucker for anything with a whodunit angle, but they really need to stop this franchise. It's trying so hard to be meta that it's no longer entertaining.

I thought it was good.

 

And I'm not a fan of horror let alone horror reboots.

I felt it had trouble walking the tightrope of enjoyable cliche, and ended up using that formula as a crutch.

 

 - SPOILERS -

 

They threw in one supposedly unexpected death of an established character, but it was telegraphed. 

 

The whole twist being there wasn't really a twist, and it's the most obvious killer, but with a lame reason. Meh.

 

It was easy-watching hokum I guess.

The Gray Man - 8/10. (10/10*).
 

Latest Netflix offering. An 80’s Arnie action vehicle with modern sensibilities. Two or three decades earlier and Arnie would have been all over this. Big, over the top, action set pieces. Quips. It even riffs on the plot from Commando. Gosling and Evans are clearly enjoying themselves. Particularly Evans, who’s channeling his inner Bennet. Just good, silly, entertaining popcorn fun. 
 

* Usual upgrade to 10 for Ana de Armas applies.

[Shitty Arse]

Die Hard 2. Good solid action romp. The villain lacks the gravitas of Hans Gruber and there are a lot of familiar tropes from the first movie but who gives a fuck? It’s Bruce single handedly saving everyone from terrorists at Christmas.

I’ll give it 7.5 out of 10.

Is it called

a)Die Hard 2

b)Die Harder or

c)Die Hard 2: Die Harder.

 

Also worth mentioning the terrorist leader on the plane is from the same place (Val Verde) mentioned in both Predator and Commando.

 

It's also based on the book 58 Minutes.

When the opening credits roll it’s just Die Hard 2. So Die Hard 2 for me. I think it said die harder on the movie poster. 
I love the first 2 Predator films. I’d never seen Commando first time around so tried to watch it a couple of months ago. It really hasn’t aged well at all. I know it’s supposed to be a cheesy action flick but everyone is so wooden in it. I struggled with it. Unpopular opinion on here as it seems to get a lot of love.

We’ve found a witch. May we burn him. He weighs the same as a duck.

The Gray. Man.

 

mind numbing video game action flick from the Netflix cunts.

 

just fuck off.

[Carvalho Diablo]

The Duke

 

True story about down on his luck Geordie Kempton Bunton, accused of stealing a Goya portrait of The Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery.

 

Jim Broadbent stars as Bunton with Helen Mirren as his long suffering wife.

 

Witty and very enjoyable.

 

7/10
