TimRam Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny on Disney+ Did not expect much from this as the previous one was not that good (Kingdom of the Crystal Skull). Suprised me 8/10 and worth a look. sage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jubbs Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Godzilla Minus One Watched it at the Quad, up there with my favourite films of the year. Exactly what Godzilla should be about. Masterpiece. Doing really well in the box office, with a budget of <$15m it's surpassed well over $50m. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaltRam Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Double update. Everything, Everywhere, All at Once. Absolute belter of a movie on a grand scale. Funny, and simultaneously a lucid reflection on what it is to be human. 9/10. Thanks to a few on here for recommending it. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry Low budget, intimate and slow paced story which absolutely brilliantly showcases the talents of Penelope Wilton and especially Jim Broadbent in the title role. Love, loss, friendship, life and death. Understated direction and well worth a watch. Broadbent 10/10. Film overall, strong 7.5.

Grumpy Git Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Saltburn (on Amazon). Completely ruined by absolutely shocking audio (the dialogue was inaudible). Should have gone to the cinema. Won't be to everyone's taste, but Mrs Grumpy enjoyed it, so I'm happy! 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkFruitsRam7 Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Leave the World Behind. Had heard very mixed reviews, so wasn't expecting to love it. To my surprise, I thought it was absolutely brilliant. Perfectly paced with a really satisfying ending. Craig Bryson / 10. Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not followed it all super closely and haven’t seen it myself, but I think much of the discourse is disingenuous because the Obamas were involved in creating it.

There is the conspiracy theory element of the discourse, but I do believe it's received mixed reviews from sane critics and reviewers alike.
