(really good) - the rest are very passable, Thor 4 as someone else said is absolute turdwaffle, got bored of Black Widow after 20 minutes and turned it off, and I can't remember what else there was, which goes to show how forgettable the others are.

I skipped black widow (I’m watching chronologically) and have no regrets. Looks shit. I MIGHT watch the spiderman films. I did enjoy homecoming. It’s about time they managed a good Spider-Man movies after the other 5 or 6 abominations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Follyfoot Posted July 15, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2023 Solid actioner. A good few twists and turns. Ben Affleck leads a good cast. Worth the investment for a couple of hours on Netflix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florence Pugh’s Yelena is one of my favourite MCU characters although she’s probably at her best in Hawkeye. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandy Lifeboats Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) Are there any famous films where the "baddies" score a total win? The Great Escape sees most of the escapees murdered. A few get away. That's not a total win. There is probably a factual film that meets that criteria. Is there a fictional one? The Silence Of The Lambs sees Lecter escape. But Starling solves a murder, rescues a hostage and kills Buffalo Bill. That's not a total win. Any ideas?

Mark Albrighton Posted July 15, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2023 Yeah there are, but presumably if they’re listed and someone hasn’t seen it, you’re kinda spoiling the ending for them. Spoiler Here’s one - Spoiler It’s a paranoia laced crime/thriller that stars Jeff Bridges Spoiler Oh you’re still keen to know what film I’m referring to? Ok, if you really want to know, click the next spoiler. You have had sufficient warning so don’t blame me if you’ve been meaning to watch this and you’re spoiling it for yourself… Spoiler Arlington Road. Bloody hell, chalk that one up as a win for the baddies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
