What film did you watch last night?

[AndyRM]

True Confessions of an International Assassin - 6/10

A daft spy movie spoof that's surprisingly funny, cartoonishly violent and an entertaining way to kill 90 minutes. I particularly liked the soundtrack which is traditional guitar mixed with Spanish covers of well known tunes.

A proper classic - Casablanca.

Walking Distance. Male bonding, morbid obesity and a digital camera, and not without a little humour. The mis en scene alone is worth ten points. Every shot carefully framed, a photographic delight. Perhaps the best film to come out of Mexico this year. Go watch it! However, props and colour schemes aren't everything: 7/10. (Usual cod Latin about other people's taste.)

There was the obligatory annual viewing of It's a Wonderful Life on Christmas Eve, which scores an unbeatable 10/10

Watched Deadpool and was pleasantly surprised to find something from the recent Marvel Cinematic Universe that wasn't complete bobbins (X-Men, I'm looking at you). Funny, self depreciating and rolled along at a cracking pace 8/10

Hail Cesaer - what a load of tosh. Binned it off after an hour 2/10

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them - as I'm not a fan of the Harry Potter movies this was an unexpected pleasure and well worth a viewing 7/10

And finally, on the basis of the trailer alone, The Lego Batman Movie looks like being the first 'must see' movie of 2017...

Independence Day 2 (The Resurgence)..........The plot has more holes than a colander and it would make a good drinking game, with 1 shot of a spirit per movie cliche spotted (getting drunk would be easy). Entertaining at least.

Just watched Suicide Squad again. Cracking film.

Seriously? Biggest load of shite I have ever seen.

Harry Potter and the half blood prince (or something like that anyway). I quite like an HP film. Watching another one tonight

[QUOTE 4618210, member: 259"]We finally got round to watching Hail Caesar tonight. I thought it was the best film I've seen for ages. Usual Coen brothers suspects and more playing their socks off, really funny writing, dazzling dancing and synchronised swimming, and great little nods to noir classics and Hitchcock. 9/10 easily.[/QUOTE]

One of the great understated things about Hail, Caesar was that comma!

EDIT: no one could ever say an exclamation mark was understated, could they? Bugger, shamed by my own pedantry: Hail, Caesar!

Its definitely a "Marmite" film. Either you love it or hate it. I hated it and yet my best mate loved it and normally we have a very similar taste in films.

More LOTR myself , the books that is .

I watched about 20 minutes of Drew Barrymore and some trapped whales this morning. It was unintentionally hilarious.
