What film did you watch last night?

Watched Nosferatu, a good old fashioned gothic horror.
Good acting, great cinematography and production but just not as good as Bram Stokers Dracula.
If you like grand old school horror it is definately worth a watch though.
7.5/10
 
Friendship. I never really clicked with Tim Robinson but this movie is making me reconsider. It's unsettling the whole time but I laughed out loud a good few times and I was watching alone at home. It's constantly subverting your expectations as to where it's going.

9/10
 
The Salt Path. Scenic, therapeutic watching. Sometimes I find myself putting a film on and end up bored, looking at my watch. I really enjoyed just being IN this film. 1hr 50mins of great cinema.
 
Ballerina - A very ok action movie. 6/10

28 years later - A different film to what i got from the trailer (chaos/intensity/gore) but pretty good regardless. - 8/10
 
Mickey 17 , in the end I'd give it a 6/10

It started well enough, with a decent concept which offered a lot of potential storylines....that it then decided to completely ignore, totally lost its way, turned into starship troopers-lite, made its own key element of cloning rather irrelevant for the 2nd half of the film and went on for 30mins longer than it needed to be. Pity, opportunity missed.
 
This weekend i watched:

Heretic - Not bad actually, very nice change to see Hugh Grant as a nutter. 7.5/10

Barbarian - It was something to watch. A bit silly but nice to see a little anthology movie back. I thought it was a bit better than most of the VHS movies - 5.5/10
 
We watched Cleaner the other night - think of a Die Hard parody with Rey Skywalker that barely manages 3/10

As for copying tens/hundreds of GB of data into a thumb drive quicker my SSD can boot pretty much sums it all up . . . . .
 
The Amateur - 5/10

Remi Malek is a bit hit and miss for me. He was fine in this CIA conspiracy thriller but thought it was a bit meh, well made but just not original in many ways.
 
Deep cover. Surprisingly enjoyable gangster/action/comedy. 7/10.

I've only watched about 40 minutes but I found it a bit meh - all the right ingredients for a good movie but execution missed the mark - dragged on bits it should have moved through swiftly, moved swiftly through bits it should have developed more.
 
Heretic (2nd time).

I saw this at the cinema last year (good experience, but too loud), and felt like checking it out again on Prime.
It's always interesting to see how it compares with the first viewing, and this time I actually enjoyed the weaker last third of the film more than before.
Very good movie; sits neatly somewhere between a 7.5–8/10 for me.

And as someone mentioned further above, it's great to see Hugh Grant appear as a sinister figure for a change.
In fact, this reminds me of when I saw Tom Cruise playing a dark character in Collateral, and is something I wish he would have done more often in his career.
