ketteringram Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Just back from seeing Dunkirk. Certainly an epic piece of film making. Not sure I enjoyed it all that much. Admired it probably a better description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I really liked the first planet of the apes movie with James Franco. Wasn't that keen on the 2nd, partly because James Franco wasn't in it, but obviously being 10 years on I understood the reasoning behind it and it was still a good movie. Looking forward to the 3rd one (released tomorrow in MX). Jason Clarke isn't in it, so I'm guessing it's again set a further decade on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Planet of the Apes film I have seen. 7/10. This is something I hate about going to the cinema, if its not talking its rustling papers or popcorn or slurping drinks. At least at the one in the Intu you don't end up with someone's big head blocking your view who won't sit still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Ram Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Just seen 47 meters down.. Basically 2 birds in a shark cage panicking for 90 mins. Not too taxing but I love a shark film.. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me started on rustling sweet papers, crisps and pop corn in the cinema......whoever thought this process complements trying to listen to and follow a film needs their head testing. A real bone of contention for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBustler1884 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Thought Dunkirk was incredible. Claustrophobic, chaotic, and really disorientating. Very cleverly done. Reminded me in some ways of Son of Saul which is the best film about Auschwitz I've seen. That style of giving no context and telling it like it is really works for me when watching a film I want to learn something from.

Jimbo Ram Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Just watched 'Inglorious Basterds' on SKY Cinema...must have missed it somehow when it came out in 2009. What a film, gripping from start to finish, Tarantino at his best....9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1of4 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Just been to see Dunkirk. I think its been over hyped. Left me feeling a bit flat, found some of the characters a bit unreal so I never made any connection with them . I got a better understanding of events and the emotions of the troops involved from reading first-hand accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sith Happens Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Life. A bit of an Alien clone but actually quite entertaining and not too far fetched. 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimRam Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Dunkirk - Faultless 10/10. The 2 hours seemed very short....never let up...just gripping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Life A better alien film than Alien:Covenant was Supposedly intelligent people doing stupid things but it wouldn't be much of a film if they hadn't. Entertaining enough 6/10 Edited August 12, 2017 by Wolfie TimRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Get out Saw it on a flight & well worth watching. Very good thriller/horror about a black lad going to spend the weekend with his white girlfriends folks. £1.99 on Amazon video at the moment. Highly recommended 8.5/10 ViewsFromTheMiddle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoetheRam Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Had a marathon recently. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - 10/10 hands down one of the best films I've ever seen. Bought the book as well. Apocalypse Now - 8/10 - Weird. Epic. Feels like too much film to take in in a single viewing. American Beauty - 8/10 - A bit pretentious, but love me some Kevin Spacey and a great dark comedy. Inception - 5/10 - Just plain stupid with zero character depth. Great special effects.

Ramslad1992 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Robin Hood the Russel Crowe version. worth a watch if you've not seen it, better than the Kevin Costner version imo. 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Happens Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Alien Covenant 6/10 - Better than Prometheus, at least I could understand what the flip was going on. Problem is thse films are just re hashes of Alien which despite the naff (compared with today) effects was a fantastic film. Enjoyed it though and no doubt will be at least one more linking up to the original film. Fassbender does a great job and is very creepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 War of the Planet of the Apes - 8/10 very emotionally driven film. I was sceptical going into the cinema, having loved Rise but found Dawn a bit too much 'boom boom' and not enough story. This is what Dawn should have been. Amazing that talking monkeys are completely believable by the end of the film. I wasn't watching Andy Serkis in a mo-cap suit, he was Caeser. I really enjoyed it.
