What film did you watch last night?

[matticus]

Paddington It's a movie I've been aware of as having good reviews, being enjoyable and lighthearted etc. It cropped up on tele last night so I thought I'd give it a go. It's cute and there were some excellent gags and subtle, 'blink and you'll mess them' lines - but I'm afraid I lost interest after around 1/2 hour. There's an awful lot going for it but maybe not enough to sustain it?

Sir,
I'm afraid I have some bad news for you:

You may have no heart.

Everyone loves this movie - the sequel possibly more so.

Yes, I know What can I say? I'm evil, that's all there can be to it.

Angel Had Fallen
Gerrard Butler stretches his acting chops in the 3rd installment of the 14 part Fallen franchise.
Secret Service Agent Mike Bannon saves the President then his team are all killed then he is set up to take the blame then he is arrested by the FBI then he escapes then he is chased by police then he meets his dad then they both kill lots of bad guys then the FBI realise the setup then they are killed then Mike Bannon saves the President for a second time that week and becomes Director of Saving Presidents.

I remember reading someone getting upset (I think on IMDB) about how London has Fallen is totally unrealistic because you could never get around it that quickly. Quite why they thought realism was part of the deal is a mystery...

Yes, I know What can I say? I'm evil, that's all there can be to it.

But are you as evil as Huge Grant as the bad guy in the sequel? With hindsight it feels like a try out for The Gentleman

Funny you should say, I remember an episode of Luther where he ran from St Pancras Basin to Shoreditch (or therearounds) in pretty impressive time. I know, I know... it's fictional, on the tele it was just down the road, but if you know the area then you can't help but have a wee chuckle

I saw a film about a flying elephant.

In the same vein, remember seeing an episode of Wycliffe where someone is on Bodmin Moor and starts running. and in 5 minutes is in Newquay...

Dr Who is filmed in Wales. Doesn't matter what planet it's set on - yes really!

I'm also in the @yello camp , so bah humbug to Paddington. Rupert would kick ass in a bear v bear smackdown any day of the week

Hotel Transylvania 4

 

[AndyRM]

I'm watching Harry Potter and the Philospher's Stone.

It's 2.5 hours long. I've barely got the attention span for this, let alone the target audience.

Quiet day, 'we' decided to watch a film, my wife picked 'Rogue Warfare'...one of the trilogy, no idea which one, utter carp.
Typical gung ho, deep masculine voices, lots of diatribe from the Taliban baddie, just boring, poorly acted, woody, predictable (imho)
My wife likes this kind if film

Saw Dunkirk last night. It looked good, sounded good but seemed to be completely lacking in heart. I'd give it 5/10 if I was being generous.

p.s. For how long can a WW2 fighter plane actually glide ?
