HanoiVillan Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I'm a bit of a Cruise fan on the quiet as well. It's not cool I know, but I do think he's a good actor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 (edited) Don't get the hate for Tom Cruise to be honest. I know he's a Scientologist and I have very strong feelings towards them, but I just judge Cruise by his acting and how he comes across in interviews. From them he seems like a decent chap, if a little strange, but as Xela said, incredibly dedicated to his work and very professional. I like a lot of his films.

My dislike of him is not entirely based on his personality or weird traits that sometimes come out. Its mainly because he's too big of a star name which means that I can never watch a film of his and not just be thinking that's tom cruise, I can never believe he is actually the character he is portraying and that's a big issue for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 So last weekend I went camping near Matlock in Derbyshire and into Matlock Bath where a friend told me local boys Shane Meadows and Paddy Considine has filmed Dead Man's Shoes which I'd never watched but had heard good things about. Well, I watched it last night and I have to say I was pretty disappointed. I expected something darker and deeper and it just felt a bit like a pretty decent student film in the end. There was no real character work done so I didn't feel anything for anyone except for maybe Toby Kebbel's character (he was the best part of the film for me). The story was a bit silly (why did no one call the police if they knew they were going to be murderered?) and the twist at the end didn't have any effect on me, neither did the ending itself which also seemed daft. I think it was trying too hard, but perhaps I'm being a bit unfair as I was expecting something akin to In Bruges which is one of my favourite films - 6/10 WNB (again) I then treated myself to watching In Bruges again afterwards. Such a great fil'um that has you laugh out loud one minute and gets you in the feels the next. So many memorable and quotable bits and the cast is bloody brilliant - 9.5/10 WB (again and again) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 (edited) Swiss Army Man was very amusing, kooky and an easy 90 minutes viewing. Both Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe (as a 'talented' corpse) were very good indeed. Loved the soundtrack too (sung in the majority by the cast) Edited June 4, 2017 by theboyangel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) This looks a bit interesting. Not sure what it will actually turn out to be, doesn't even have an proper entry on IMDB yet. Edited June 5, 2017 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) So, Wonder Woman. Can't quite put my finger on what it was, but it was captivating throughout and I couldn't take my eyes off the screen......
