Glad you enjoyed it. You lost me at Minecraft though! I have seen Rocky IV :-)Quote:

Same with Black Bag. I’m not averse to a slow spy film, and I like Michael Fassbender, but couldn’t stay interested in it and gave up after half an hour or so again.
I watched Snatch last night still great fun.
I watched A Real Pain last night on Disney Plus
Great wee film. Nothing really happens but a lot happens if you know what I mean. Great performances too
4/5
Started watching Minecraft, seemed like Jack black self indulgent nonsense and due to the game, I had no clue what he was doing, I'll leave it for the kids
Yeah really enjoyed this one. Find it a bit bizarre that Culkin won best supporting actor, when he's clearly leading the film. But the Oscar rules are pretty daft I guess.Quote:

Watching Conclave for the 2nd time. Timely. Just a beautiful movie though.
I watched Trap.
Really wanted to see this from the marketing campaign and my fondness of M.Night films. I thought it was terrible. A stupid premises all done to promote the directors daughters musical career by the looks of stuff.
Ludicrous, terrible script and an awful plot.
1/5
I agree, think there’s a few posts a few pages back on it, I was the same as you so bad I felt it must have been a spoof not one I’ll watch againQuote:

I wanted this to be the film that rejuvenated the Marvel franchise. The one that made it all exciting and vital.
You can’t always get what you want.
I was really disappointed with this. The story was a bit all over the place, the effects were very basic and the action felt formulaic. The screen was near deserted so it might have benefited from a big screen atmosphere
The film makers can’t be blamed for that. What they can be blamed for is this - a film that could have been far better than it was
2/5
I see Trump has said he is going to impose a 100% tariff on Non-American movies and he's appointed Jon Voight, Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson as Special Ambassadors to promote Hollywood. FFS does he not even know that Mel Gibson is Scottish. :wink:
The Cleaner.
Would be better spending the time cleaning than watching it. Utter dross.
So disappointed to read some of Jon Voigts politics. One of my favourite performances is him in Runaway Train.Quote:

Voigt's been a lifelong hardline Republican, but that shouldn't deflect from the brilliance of the actor who played Joe Buck. Morrissey's openly embraced pretty extreme right-wing ideology for years now (views it's suspected he kept under wraps in the early days) but I still listen to the Smiths.Quote:

Really delivers on so many levels and Michael B.Jordan is superb in a great cast. Delroy Lindo, Jack O'Connell, Hailee Steinfeld and also a debut performance from some kid who's name escapes me!
5 star stuff.
I really want to see thisQuote:
