Chindie Posted December 6, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2019 That Bond trailer is like a parody of the films in the Craig era (especially Skyfall and Spectre). The cinematography is beautiful but everything else is so pompous and tired looking. And Craig looks like he'd rather putting shards of glass into his eyes than be anywhere near it.

Brumstopdogs Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Watched The Irishman last weekend and thought it was a good film but not a classic. Well worth taking the time to watch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Really liked Dolemite Is My Name. thought it’d be a remake of Dolemite not a full blown biographical film about Rudy Ray Moore. very entertaining stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Just watched ‘71! Film about a British trooper in Belfast during the war. Pretty decent. Jack O’Connell is lead 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Watched the Irishman last night and thought it was brilliant. I think you need to set the time aside to watch it in one go rather than stop/start so you can really get into it. The 3 and half hours flew by for me as I found it so engrossing. De Niro, Pesci and Pacino are all excellent in it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villakram Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Logan (2017). A good non-linear comic book movie. I need to sit down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a terrible trailer. Bring on the next Bond, it definitely needs refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth taking the time to watch though. I've almost finished it. I'll watch a second time too. It's a weird one. It's a bit of a slow mover, and it's often really quiet. It's good. I would've liked more Harvey Kietel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) New Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailer is out, looks different but really quite intriguing, like how they've linked to the original. Looking forward to it, hopefully eradicates any memory of the terrible reboot from a few years ago. Edited December 9, 2019 by Ingram85 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 session on a plane the return once upon a time in Hollywood - I'm embarrassed by how long it took me to pick up the central story arc, didn't get any of the references until the final chapter and actually sat there at one point thinking is this a bit shit because the characters don't tie in together, overall its enjoyable with some great performances, its not just long its bloated, looks awesome, would have to watch it again but I think I preferred the nice guys xmen dark phoenix - not the car crash I expected but as expected turner was a bit shit and the whole thing just felt a bit pointless, I liked the final third though, the villians really didn't hit yesterday - thought it was ok, unfortunately it ruined its premise by going a bit by the numbers rom com, Tamwar did enough in the lead to make it watchable, lily james is always watchable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted December 10, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Started Baumbach's Marriage Story last night on Netflix. I've a suspicion it's very good but it stressed me out so much I had to stop for a bit. Will finish it tonight. *edit. Finished it. It’s as traumatic as it is compelling.

Not even the Austin Powers movies would think of having a car chase on the moon. And there are only that many close ups of Brad Pitts face thinking hard a movie can hold. Spent half the film thinking how much Pitt looked like Benicio Del Toro, Especially all the close ups with a helmet on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
