Overlord 6/10
Pretty gorey and violent nazi horror movie. Was entertaining enough but was expecting better.

The Monster (Netflix)
I enjoyed this quite a bit! Mommy and daughter break down in a foresty area in their car at night, and there's something lurking in ze woods. Sounds like a typical plain, cheapo flick, yet the performance turned in by the mother is superb. I struggle to find decent, scary stuff on NF these days due to the amount of junk on there so this was quite a surprise.
6.5/10

You Were Never Really Here [ 2017 ]
This is a film that requires maybe a second viewing, unanswered plot details, flashbacks that never get resolved,
it sort of fizzles out with a half-arsed sort of an ending.
Not a lot of dialogue and most of it lost in the depths of Phoenix's face fuzz.

Abducted in plain sight.
What the absolute hell. Has anyone else seen this?
It's absolutely mental. Terryfying that it's real. It has everything, it's such a sad tale but it's hard not to find it funny.
Strong 10/10 on the crazy scale.

Alita: Battle Angel - 7/10
Wasn't really what I expected, much more a teen romance than action flick, which maybe true to the source? But I can understand why they might have pitched it the way they did in the trailers as the sci-fi aspect could be a bit of a turn off for younger women. Enjoyed it though, the world was fleshed out and the effects fantastic.

Anyone whos seen Alita...I really like the look of it...as does my very mature 6 year old girl...do you think it would be ok for her? I get that only i would technically know that question but i dont know if its like scary or very violent. With it being a Pg-13 i figured it would be alright.
Personally, I think it might be a bit much for a 6 year old, there is an f-bomb in there, plus lesser swearing smattered through it, and there are people being cut in two (not overly graphically, but still you see him in two bits), plus cyborgs routinely getting killed. Bit of bloody violence, but nothing too bad.

If she handles the face melt scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark, she would likely be ok though.
Yeah, me and my GF are half way through it. She thinks it's a sad story, which obviously it is, but I lost it at "had sex with an ant"(I know) ... I just kept thinking of an old Derek and Clive sketch called Top Rank.
It is so bizarre I can't help feeling Netflix are taking the ****!

Ant?
It just doesn't feel real. It feels like somethings not quite truthful. But who knows.
I know he says aunt, but the way it is said in his American accent and the way he looks at the camera, I just found it hilarious... And actually believable in this messed up story!

I finally got round to watching Deepwater Horizon on Film 4 last night, I've been wanting to see it since it came out being a sucker for disaster spectaculars but was too bone idle to do anything about it. I'll give it a 7/10, it was enjoyable enough and lived up to expectations, well moreso because I assumed half of it would be blaming people in courtrooms. The only teeny-tiny criticism which niggled me just an incy-wincy bit was I COULDN'T TELL WHAT ANY OF THEM WERE SAYING ANY OF THE DAMN TIME. Is that what they talk like in Louisiana?
Not very satisfying is it.
When the credits went up I just left, but nobody else in the cinema moved from their seats. I think they were expecting more
It's supposed to be the first of a trilogy, but until they know they have the numbers to get the second one made, they wanted to round off the first film in such a way that it isn't a cliff-hanger and can stand on it's own if they don't make any sequels.
