Mission Impossible Fallout - 8/10
Longest of the bunch and it does feel a little long. The pace is quite good though, aside maybe it could have been 10 minutes shorter if the final scenes were a little less stretched out. Still, some great fights, chases and the usual great plot with twists and trickery.

This is my favourite modern horror.
I'm now watching the second one in the series, which seems pretty good so far.

Don't bother with 3 and 4.
On a side note, if you ever rewatch the first, you'll be shocked how many ghosts are simply in the background you barely notice on the initial watch.
Thanks. Yeah, it seems very often that the first one or two of a series/film is the best, and then it usually goes downhill after that.
My biggest grumble and gripe is neither delivers on the final scene of Insidious 2.

Considering the low budget found it quite good if a bit confusing for no reason other than to be confusing.

Not really debunked. One disputed point about the photo.
I have a neutral stance on whole thing but the documentary does document the general path of Obama's life until he becomes president.
He's around communists and radicals a lot. He refuses to release his college records or birth certificate etc.
Artemis Fowl - 0/10 .. awful film ! only reason we watched all the way through is the missus has OCD so once she starts watching something she has to finish!
she also has to watch things in order .. so i put on a Marvel film that was out of sync with the MCU timeline she freaked out
Tried to watch this the other night, found it bloody awful.

I really quite enjoyed this one too.

Zombeavers
Yes, Zombie beavers chasing around PYT's in swimsuits. Good to switch the brain off sometimes and laugh along with a stupid comedy horror. The scene with the young lady on a table, legs apart trying to get away from a zombie beaver crawling towards her, between them, was the highlight. Spoiler alert - she stabbed it in the head with a knife
.
Been enjoying various foreign films recently.
Tonight will probably watch the latest Jurassic Park movie that's popped up on Netflix recently.

Yep, I love Drive, great film
It's a slow burn, but so atmospheric with great performances and cinematography.Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)
"Times are tough at Premiere Properties. Shelley "the machine" Levene (Lemmon) and Dave Moss (Harris) are veteran salesmen, but only Ricky Roma (Pacino) is on a hot streak. The new Glengarry sales leads could turn everything around, but the front office is holding them back until these "losers" prove themselves. "
This is such a classic, so many great lines and situations. Great performances from the entire cast, but Jack Lemmon deserves special mention.
Put that coffee down!! Coffee is for closers only.

In the mouth of Madness - 7/10 Carpenter at his 2nd best (The Thing is the best he's done)
Bram Stokers Dracula - 8/10 Great film would be a 10 if not for the miscasting of Keanu & Winona and their woeful English accents
