Does it get good in the last quarter?

Nah.

[Heggemony]

Dunkirk.

 

10 out of 10 although would have undoubtedly been better on the big screen.

 

Nolan is a genius.

 

Imagine if we'd fucked it up in 1940. All of what we know now would be gone.

 

Thanks Uncle Bram on the minesweeper and Grandad Bert on the landing stage at the Pier Head.

 

Most scrotes these days don't appreciate what you did for us but a good proportion do.

The sad thing is much of that sacrifice is being undone all around us every day.

I loved Dunkirk. It was fucking brilliant. Beautifully done and some incredible scenes, most of them tense.

 

Best film easily of last year. Should have won best picture and director at the very least. Crime it didn't win these 2, even though it picked up 3 others.

 

How The Shape Of Water won so many ahead of it is still baffling.

Sadly you're right mate.

Spot on. It was the complete antithesis to something Michael Bay or his ilk would come up with. Almost no flag-waving of any kind either.

 

I like Del Toro but I don't get the love-in at all.

If only Adolph could have waited a bit longer to watch his visions become a reality.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Robocop 3 currently on ITV4

 

Awful

 

-100,000,000 / 10

Made even worse because the first 20 minutes or so are decent, then it just descends into a complete shit sandwich.

[SasaS]

I finished watching Game Night today and thought it was good. Not belly laugh funny but a good chuckles throughout.

 

6.5/10

 

About right.

[Jose Jones]

A man called Ove

 

Mild mannered Swedish thing that the missus picked on the telly. It's about a grumpy Swedish bloke who wants to kill himself to join his wife who has recently died of cancer, but keeps getting interrupted or failing. He sort of gets bullied by his new neighbour, a rather lovely Iraqi immigrant with two kids and rather pregnant, to participate in life a bit. Then there's a bit of reminiscing about his life, losses and idiosyncrasies along the way.

Quite heartwarming, albeit a bit cliched at times.

 

6.8/10

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Strictly speaking, that's not true. It does not have a linear narrative structure, the story follows several characters through several interconnected narrative lines which then converge.

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Game Night 2/10 if you laughed at the forced humour in this film, you probably wear shants.

Yeah, I don’t get the positive reviews for it on here.

[SasaS]

I know it is frowned upon here, but could you elaborate why do you think it's so bad? I'd give it 6 out of 10, I don't think many people will remember it five years from now, but it's a decent action comedy, if you don't expect too much and by today's standards, you really shouldn't. I was not too bored, there are a couple of funny moments and mercifully not much physical or gross out comedy. It's far less irritating than Hangover or something like that.

Game Night- thought it was alright- 6.5/10

The first hangover was brilliant. I still enjoy watching it sometimes. Game Night was incredibly predictable, unfunny, cliched, and I think poorly acted. I’m also fucking sick of Jason Bateman playing Jason Bateman.

Thanks. I mostly avoid comedies and I only watched Game Night after it divided people on here so much and upon seeing it, I couldn't understand why, because it really isn't one of those hate it love it films, it's competently made, it's not great, but it's not that bad either. I agree it's predictable, and acting is what I'd expect, overall, a bit meh with some bits that worked. At least it didn't make me despair over what people find funny. I think in recent years, Ted was probably the only comedy I could say I liked.

Just watched a film called spectral on Netflix, really good and clever little action film, 7/10

Yeah saw that a while ago, decent film.

 

I thought they might turn it into a tv series but nothing yet.

[Furmedge]

Annihilation - A Netflix funded/released movie which should have set the alarm bells ringing straight away.  A man comes back from a secret mission and immediately his body starts shutting down when he returns home.  Him and his wife are apprehended from some government type force from the ambulance and she wakes up on a ship.  She ends up going on the same secret mission with some other women and then some weird shit happens and I lost interest and eventually fell asleep.  It was shite.

 

2 GI Jane's out of 10

There was a fucking big gun on the picture for it so I thought yeah I'll have some of that, good film.

Off the top of my head i've enjoyed;

 

Hall Pass

Bad Neighbours

21 Jump street

The Nice Guys

 

 

There's probably more. 

 

Anything with the fat woman with black hair in is an instant no, bridesmaids etc, or Amy schumer.

 

The early 2000's produced tons of brilliant comedies, the best era I can remember for them, if you can class that as an era.

 

There's probably more.

Thanks. I might check some of them if I come across them.

Watched that 'Anon' on Sky Movies , some interesting ideas but so slow. Would have been annoyed had I gone to the pictures to see it. 4/10
