Taxi Tehran (Jafar Panahi) - 8/10

 

Only ever seen one other Panahi film (Offside, about the girls sneaking into an Iran World Cup qualifier).  Just stumbled across this on iPlayer and loved it.  Simply shot, but brilliantly planned when you think about it considering the constraints he works under these days.  A guided tour of Tehran in several ways. Nothing world-shakingly deep about it, but an interesting and engaging view all the same.  Neorealism, when done well, is as entertaining as anything else in cinema.

Star Wars Episode VIII - The Last Jedi

 

An overblown, ugly mess of a movie.

 

Less is more.

 

4/10

[Rico1304]

Noticed there is a thing called a Porg in the new Star Wars film, made me chuckle & presumably anybody else who was a fan of the Tom Sharpe

' Wilt ' books.

It’s still the word that springs to mind when I see a dwarf.

[Kloppite]

Logan Lucky. 7.8/10.

 

Good film with a good cast, very enjoyable and light hearted good way to kill a couple of hours.

 

Bad Neighbours 2. 4/10.

 

The 1st wasn't great but was watchable this is much worse and is not worth bothering to watch.

[ZonkoVille77]

The Last Jedi - 4/10 - rubbish

Geostorm - 6/10 - an absolutely nonsensical film that was weirdly enjoyable at times

Elf - 9/10 - I've seen it loads and it just gets better. Best Christmas comedy ever.

 

[thegreatelephant]

Paddington 2 with Sonny Jim. much better than the last one and good fun. love thy neighbour meets cooking in prison. 7 marmalade sandwiches out of 10.

[Anny Road]

Geostorm. Utter shite. 1/10 if you are an adult. 10/10 if you are a 9 year old boy.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Blade of the Immortal.

 

Some Chinese dude infested with worms (!)  goes fucking mental and smashes the fuck out of hundreds of other Chinese nasty bastards and henchmen, literally chopping the cunts into smithereens. A heartfelt bloodbath and orgy of wanton excess.

 

About 2 and a half hours long.

 

7/10 Covenant / Kodi

[Stickman]

The Killimg Of A Sacred Deer 8/10 Very strange well acted and creepy disturbing thriller

Have to say I was never a massive fan of Colin Farrell apart from In Bruges but he's making some really good movies lately like The Lobster, The Begulied and this

[RedKnight]

Watched Gremlins the other day and decided to watch Gremlins 2 for the first time in years. Never realised just how much of parody of the first film it is (even going as far as to take the piss of the Phoebe Cates Santa Claus speech), how much of it is just a series of sketches and how much it's just a Looney Tunes cartoon. The story is so loose, it's basically there just to put the gremlins in a position to do lots of wacky stuff and shoehorn lots of film references. Found it way more fun than I remember and I always liked it a lot. Not sure how Warner Bros. ever let Joe Dante get away with it though.

 

[Shitty Arse]

Before The Devil Knows You're Dead starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Marisa Tomei and Ethan Hawke. Nearly two hours long and it's quite a sad film but it's well acted and an original story. Certainly not going to win any smiles and the ending is super-grim. 8/10.

One of my favourite films. Gripping from start to finish

[General Dryness]

Fahrenheit 9/11 for the umpteenth time.

 

Regardless of what you think of Michael Moore (and he does pull a few shenanigans in this one), the facts are what they are. The invasion of Iraq was based on bullshit and lies so the US money men could take control of its oil.

 

Its mad how it all seems to have been forgotten about now. Trumps an idiot, but he hasn't pulled the kind of shit Bush did.

The Big Lebowski. 8.25/10.

 

Can't believe I had never seen this film even though I knew of its existence end that I had only heard good things about it. In a way I am glad I hadn't watched it because it was a pleasure to watch when there was fuck all else on.

Speaking of the Coen Brothers, have you seen Barton Fink and O Brother, Where Art Thou?

If not, watch them. They're boss.

The bit where the guy is on the phone and draws a picture of a man with a hard on and lebowski thinks he's writing down a number has me in stitches everytime.

Nice one for the recommendations I have heard of them both but have never seen them. I will watch them over Christmas nice one Mr Moanero.

[Kloppite]

Yeah that was funny but I just found if fucking hilarious that the only thing he wanted in the 1st place was his rug cleaning or replacing.

[Elite]

O' Brother where Art Thou is one of the best films ever made.

[Hand Shandy]

Another vote for O Brother Where Art Thou.

 

Brilliant film.

 

One has to assume you have seen Raising Arizona and Fargo?

[Guest]

O' Brother where Art Thou is one of the best films ever made.

I will have to sit down and watch this properly as I watched it years ago and was not paying attention to it. Same with Barton Fink. I have a feeling I'm in for a treat.

[Kloppite]

Another vote for O Brother Where Art Thou.

 

Brilliant film.

I have seen Fargo a

I have also seen o brother where art though I had just forgot it was so long ago, not sure about raising Arizona.
