Bris Vegas Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I watched Downsizing the other day on Netflix. What a weird film. Youl Mawene / 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob The Badger Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Coda - winner of best movie at the Oscars on Apple TV Full of cliches, obvious jokes and tells the hero's journey story about 19 times in under 2 hours. And it's absolutely brilliant. Laugh out loud funny in parts too which I wasn't expecting. Paul Goddard/10 Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Can give a good word for The Outfit - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14114802/ A decent story, told well, with Rylance quietly excellent in the role of a master cutter threatened by the mob. Worth a watch once networked. Bob The Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a watch once networked. We wanted a break from Slow Horses and have spent half an hour this afternoon looking for something we'd not seen and wanted to. I clicked through for this and got all excited until it dawned on me what you had said about it being newtworked. Cant seem to see it at the cinema or on TV, what gives and do I have to go back to Slow Horses? BTW, I cannot work myself up into a lather about The Power of the Dog, can anybody convince me otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoes Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Fantastic beasts - Secrets of Dumbledore - 8/10 excellent best of the three imo. Morbius - 4 / 10 awful rushed story , poor characters and has no identity nearly as bad as Blood shot ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously there are other options involving VPNs and torrent clients if like me, you're impatient. Bob The Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 The Adam Project Sci Fi time travel adventure with Ryan reynolds doing his witty wise-cracking thing Really enjoyed this. 8.5/10. If you find Ryan Reynolds annoying, you will hate it though. Gaspode 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Love and Monsters (Netflix) Mutated bugs have taken over the world and one young man decides to leave his safe bunker of 7 years and go on an 85 mile trek to find his girlfriend. Hadn't heard of this before but it was very good. 7/10. TimRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a trailer that had me thinking this was a kids movie, is that not the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked & it's a 12 certificate, so I'd say it's a family friendly film, rather than a kids film. Think 80's Spielberg sort of thing - but with a bit more violence. Some of the Reynolds one-liners will go over kids' heads as well. I just thought it was the most fun I've had watching a film for quite a while. Plenty of action with enough laughs along the way.

What did you think of the first 2 films? I really liked the first one, good mix of mystery and fun with the creatures. But I really disliked the second, as they moved away from the fun elements of the creatures and instead focussed on the story which isn’t massively interesting. Would be interested to hear your thoughts as unsure whether to see it at cinema or wait and watch at home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Red Notice. Found Ryan Reynolds intensely irritating throughout and not a great fan of The Rock either. 5/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Million Dollar Baby. This is one of the best films I've ever seen (in my opinion). No surprise that Hilary Swank, Morgan Freeman and Clint Eastwood picked up Oscars for this splendid film.

bimmerman Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Sonic 2 I don't like Jim Carrey at all but he absolutely is fantastic casting for this. Good fun film. Nostalgic and my 6 year old loved the action 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This third one is 80% overarching storyline but it is very clever and ties up the loose ends from part 2 go see it man you like it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Ward / 10. Love that film. Seen it many times. First time was in a cinema in Cork . The soundtrack is brilliant through a cinema sound system. Plus I'd watch Lucy Boynton in pretty much anything. DarkFruitsRam7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 The King’s Man on Disney+ Enjoyed the Kingsmen “Eggsy” films so looked forward to this film. Absolutely appalling film. Excellent cast, woeful film with a rubbish twist. Paul Thirlwell/10 Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
