ketteringram Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Bear in mind , I refuse to watch films containing anything to do with , Elves , goblins , fairies , wizards , robots , zombies , vampires , unessesary violence , imaginary lands, aliens , talking animals , torture , war. I highly recommend Sing Street ! Shame it had such a limited cinema release . Wasn't on within 40 miles of me. I ended up watching it on google play . Wonderful film. I'd say you need to be of a certain age to enjoy it . I'm 56. WhiteHorseRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roared into my top ten sausage films of all time, finding a berth between 'Little Nicky' and 'FlyBoys.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed that for you, mate. I've also only heard good things about Sing Street for months now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see the twist at the end coming from a mile off though. 7/10. Or before we even start watching it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRamFan Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Dr Strange 8/10 and a little clue to another marvel film coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 forced myself to re-watch Ronin last night, having seen it about 15 years ago and it not making a positive impression on me. I have to say, it did nothing to change my mind, a load of old nonsense with a couple of car chases. 5/10 Chester40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Arrival A linguist professor is signed up to try to communiate with aliens when 12 of their craft appear suddenly and hover over various global locations. A film about aliens but not at all in an "Independence Day" way and all the better for it. Great acting, sound, story, strong message and good plot twist. Felt a bit like Contact, to watch, but thankfully without the rubbish ending. 8/10 WhiteHorseRam and Comrade 86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wixman1884 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Limited release over here, but Moonlight was pretty spectacular. I doubt it's everyone's cup of tea, but a solid 10/10 from me. Also, I hear Disney's Moana is pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep thinking I need to watch it again, must have missed something as you always see it talked about as a classic. Whereas I thought it was average, cliche-ridden fluff. Is there a 'nowhere near as good as the hype' thread? I'll put on my tin hat and throw a couple of grenades into that category...The Deer Hunter; 2001 Space Odyssey, Kill Bill....

Rev Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Not the last film I saw, but 'The Guard' is on tonight at 11.55, well worth a record! WhiteHorseRam and Comrade 86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Saw Fantastic Beasts the other night. Mrs Wolfie absolutely loved it. I didn't. Couldn't get into it, fell asleep & missed most of the first half, so can't really give a rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth the 3D too, as it just enhances the magic. My wife, not a Potter nut like me, also really enjoyed it. Accessible to all.

Verdict: 9/10 Yeah my Mrs is definitely a bigger Potter fan than me but I found Eddie Redmayne's character's mannerisms really annoying & they grated on me. I think that's why I couldn't engage with it to begin with. Chester40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
