Its just the coffee I had to clean up after I read you describing her as a likeable lead that concerned me. Her character was likeable, you want her to succeed (well maybe not you, the royal you). It’s a well made film in that respect, some films fall flat as the leads just aren’t likeable enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant believe its caused such a fuss, its like all the simpsons style comic book guys have taken offence because they arent being led on by her into thinking they can get in her pants. Seriously people would take offence if she had said she preferred Coke to Pepsi. Now, if she'd said that she prefers Pepsi to Coke then that would have been controversial!

Chester40 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 The Dirt. 4/10. Never before has such a grimey, seedy story seemed more like a teen movie ala Porkies. Light, frothy...and injecting drugs...bizarre feel to it. Disappointing with the material it had to use. Anon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dog Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Beggars of life Old silent film with Louise brooks. Quality watch as not having sound means a different approach to narrative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 "I think we're alone now" A post-apocalyptic film that finds Del (Peter Dinkage) keeping his home town swept and tidy after everyone else has suddenly died from an unspecified event. He seems contented going round buring all the dead people on his own - and then Elle Fanning turns up and they eventually become friends blah blah yawn. Boring and stupid. Don't bother. 3/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Halloween (2018) Great performance by Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, who confronts her long-time foe Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago. Far far better than I expected and a properly scary/gruesome horror, with a decent plot and great script. Plenty of nods to the original film as well. Forget any of the previous sequels & just watch this one. Best film I've seen this year by quite a margin. Highly recommended. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made the mistake of reading the book many years ago and even then I found it utterly juvenile and completely vacuous. A celebration of mediocrity and profound stupidity.

TimRam Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) The Transporter Refueled. First one in the series without Mr Statham. Enjoyed it as much as the others. Good action sequences, cars, nice women, decent lead. 7.5/10. Edited April 2, 2019 by TimRam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester40 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Shazam Brilliant kids romp. Funny, interesting, engaging. 8.5/10. Like the first Goosebumps films it somehow channelled that 80s feel good vibe, kinda 'Big' crosssed with 'Goonies'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a huge fan of Ben Stiller so was kind of reluctant to watch it at first, but credit where it's due it's, he's excellent in the role. One of those movies you don't really want to end.
