The Killers Game
Apparently it took three decades to make this and you wonder why they did
It’s almost like a video game film adaptation but without the decent video game that came before it
Some good set pieces and a funny pair of Scottish hitmen but the rest of it was pretty bad 2/5
Bottoms
I liked this teenage lesbian twist on the American boys trying to get laid type flick. Interesting take on it with some great performances
There’s a not so subtle message throughout and the subplot involving a rival school felt a bit daft but I’ve seen worse 3/5
Five Nights at Freddy’s
Watched this with no concept of the computer game. Got a brief guide to it as we watched it
Started good but then lost its way. There was a twist I called early on. I appreciate the computer game may have came before the Nicholas Cage film Wally World (I think that’s what it was called?) but Cages film was better
2/5 for the start and the trailer that did its job and made the film look good
Dream Scenario
I wanted this to be so much better that it was
It’s got A24 written all over it in big, bold writing. Dull middle aged Nicholas Cage starts inexplicably turning up on people’s dreams.
It starts off good then goes A24 dark. I like a film that makes the audience think and come up with their own opinion of what happened
But this was a bit too much
Strong Cage performance and string start. Good idea too. Bet I dream of him
3/5
Watched Conclave last night
Interesting watch great acting and script Ralph Fiennes must be in with a shout for an Oscar
I saw it today, i think Chalamet did a great job, Ed Norton was perfect as Seeger too. I’ve read the Dylan and Woody Guthrie biographies and they did take a few liberties with historical accuracy but thats to be expected with a biopic.Quote:

Glad I didn’t pay to watch this
4 out of 5 stars in the sun (i know), although it isn't my kind of thing anyway.Quote:

Excellent movieQuote:

Quite touching and loss, grief, loneliness and friendship. And a man with the head of a dog
I’ve seen far worse films than this
From the first Iron Man until the final Avengers film (plus a couple of subsequent Tom Holland Spiderman movies), I used to very much enjoy watching the Marvel movies with my youngest son. They've badly lost their way in recent years though and Captain America: Brave New World just doesn't cut it. It's significantly shorter than some of the three-hour plus films they were previously turning out, but it felt longer. Awful dialogue, woeful plot and just all round dull. Not even Harrison Ford can salvage it.

Thanks for the recommendation
My pleasure 👍 I’d happily sit and watch it again and again it was that good!Quote:

Watched Kinda Pregnant on Netflix, and Im just warning people not to waste their time on it. Really crap. Really really crap.
I was dragged by my wife to see Memoir of a Snail last night, 23.15 showing. I don’t know what I expects but it wasn’t that, it was fabulous. We were the only ones in the cinema, but more people need to see this film. 9/10 I absolutely loved it

It's brill. If you liked that you will love his other films, "Harvey Krumpet" and one of my favourite films the tremendous "Mary and Max"Quote:

Surely the fact Amy Schumer is in it should have been your first red flag 😀Quote:

Watched "You're Cordially Invited" on Prime the other night. Quite good as far as chick flicks go. Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon. There was a line near the end from Will Ferrell that had me and my wife in stitches.
