The name of the record shop in the film
- Location
- Somewhere wet & hilly in NW England.
Mission Impossible - Dead Reckoning @ cinema Friday just gone.
Really good, decent storyline and topical too (AI), usual twists, turns and capers but thoroughly entertaining.
Great cast and Tom just has to be applauded for doing all those crazy stunts.

Watched Good Vibrations after the recommendations here. A nice wee Brit film that managed to navigate the Troubles without implied criticism of either side. Needed more SLF though

Arms deal goes almost comedically wrong and ends in a virtually hour long shoot'em up.
Lots of sarcastic/quirky humour amongst the protagonists while trying to kill the opposition and survive at the same time.
Excellent, really enjoyed that one.

Also, Bull.
Violent psychopath gang member seeks revenge against his own that killed him apparently ?
Again, a really good film, extremely violent at times.

There are, Keanu Reeves has been keen for years and given his popularity these days I hope it happens. Its all based on a comic which I've still not gotten around to reading.
I watched Prisoners (2013) recently. Its supposedly a thriller about 2 missing girls but it's too long, 2 1/2 hours of dreary rainy/snowy Pensylvanian town just depressed me. It was directed by Denis Vilenueve but unfortunately not written by him, it's not badly acted by any means but good acting can't speed up a film!

Pretty good for something sooo old, covering an issue that now seems so dated. Well handled, some good performances. Loved the painted backdrop of Golden Gate Bridge, you just don't see that stuff these days!
The Spencer Tracey character (his last ever role, filmed just before his death) is quite clearly the inspiration for a much loved modern character:

I haven't, nor the anime either.
It is really good, saw it by accident a few years ago when stuck inside on a rainy sat.

Barbie:
Seemingly no one's mentioned this one yet. Really clever, subversive, superbly done and great fun. It's not really a kid's film, not that it's "inappropriate" but I suspect kids would simply be bored and not get the jokes. The right-on "wokeness" doesn't take itself too seriously and it by and large questions rather than preaches. Only one overly mawkish scene, so not like a preachy Disney moral tale at all. Of course, the usual right wing gobshites like Shapiro and Jordan Peterson were in a lather about it, which I (quite rightly as it turned out) took as a recommendation
Clever, witty and fun entertainment, and very ambitious visually / technically. Got to be 9/10 and maybe a best film/best actress Oscar
And the latest Indiana Jones film. I had very low expectations of this thinking they'd be flogging a dead horse and that the octogenarian Harrison Ford would be absurd, but I was totally wrong; it was brilliant escapist fun, perhaps as good as the first one and maybe made slightly more sense. Clever interspersing of a CGI'd "young" Indy fighting wartime Nazis to the 80 year old Indy in a superbly done 1969. Phoebe Waller-Bridge superb co-star as Indy's Goddaughter, daughter of his archeologist friend Toby Jones (minor role but as always superb). Not quite a continuous chase from start to finish, but not far off, whilst never getting annoyingly frentic. A highlight for me was the visuals of 60s with New York (apparently filmed in Glasgow), the UK, with British vintage cars, Tangiers with 60s Peugot taxis, and 60s Fiats in Italy.
OK, it's more of the same maybe, so nothing new but arguably just a little better. 8/10 for pure fun

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 (Disney+). What a huge surprise; I liked the first 2 but this one was somehow more serious, at the same time as being funnier, more serious, more stupid and sadder. Really enjoyed it; one of the few films I would probably watch again in a few days time
