What film did you watch last night?

[Dayvo]

Numb - a Canadian winter treasure hunt.

Poor script, unlikely plot, nondescript acting and sooo unrealistic.

2/10

I spotted this was on during the week and recorded it - might get chance to watch it tomorrow given the forecast.

Lawless. One of those prohibition-era movies, all greys and browns and quite a lot of violence. Noticed as the credits came up that the screenwriter was 'Nick Cave' - went to check and sure enough, yes, it was written by 'that' Nick Cave. Clever chap. Of its genre, pretty well done.

As long as you dont mind sign language bertha in the corner, great for those who need but can we have the option to turn her off?

Last night I went to Fabulous Beasts with younger Marmionette, I am still not sure I know what it was about but it was ok.
Tonight I am just finishing watching Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Utter crap.

 

[Dayvo]

Just seen Bastille Day with Idris Elba.

Very enjoyable 8/10

Dammit, I love that film. Plot holes galore (eg why not build the biodomes somewhere on earth, rather than in space and ... yeah, lots of plotholes). But go with it, and it's beautiful. I can't hear that Joan Baez track without welling up.

Interesting trivia: when Fox sued Universal saying Battlestar Galactica ripped off Star Wars, Universal countersued saying R2D2 was copied from Huey, Dewey and Louie.

Rambo, First Blood. There wasn't an Old Etonian looking all thespian and wistful in sight. The added bonus was that things actually happened. Quite a lot of things really.

Flipping neck cyberknight, I haven't seen that film since I was a kid and haven't found it since as nobody seemed to k ow what I was talking about and I couldn't remember the name of it!!! it was about 15 years old when I was born though.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Southpaw. It was no Raging Bull.

 

[skudupnorth]

The BFG and I loved it !!! Watched the new Dads Army the night before but was sadly disappointed, might give it another chance later though.

 

[John the Monkey]

Pan's Labyrinth (Netflix)
Is this Guillermo Del Toro's best film? Beautiful, dark, uncanny and haunting, setting the capricious brutality of a period at the end of the Spanish Civil War against the dark logic of a fantasy world.

 

[stephec]

Dad's Army.

Good in parts and some decent one liners, but overall not exactly top class.
