Yeah, it's more like a bad 90s music video than a film. Hated it.
What film did you watch last night?
- Thread starter Richeh
- Start date
Take shelter 2011 - 4/10
Normal fella with a young deaf daughter and happy family life. Has a great job supervising a bloke randomly drilling holes in the ground somewhere.
Starts having bad dreams that get worse and always start with thunder and oily rain. Goes to doctor and his schizophrenic mother, not sure if these dreams are a warning of impending doom or losing marbles
Decides to extend his hurricane shelter at significant cost, all without telling wife. Loses job wife's sticks by him and they go for a break to the coast.
Wife sees incoming tsunami wave.
End of film

You don't have to spoil the film for people who haven't seen it.

She's faptastic, I'd wife her hard.
She's gorgeous in Dr Sleep
Do I need to watch The Shining before Dr Sleep?
Embarrassingly, I’ve still not seen it...
I'd say yes...it's not the all time classic up on a pedestal most claim though. It's good, albeit not great.
Sweet cheers dude - I remember watching the trailer for Dr Sleep and being intrigued, so will have to give it a watch
Sorry, thought this was for people to write about a film they've watched!
Maybe the title should be amended to " film I watched last night that I won't be telling you anything about lest I possibly spoil it for you"?
That would be interesting wouldn't it?

Think about the logic of what you're saying. Then think about it some more.

Both are very good films. The Shining has to be one of my favourites of all time.
Why on earth would it be a thread for someone to explain what happened and the ending of the film you watched last night? Really? You can tell people about the film very easily without giving spoilers away. Everyone else copes fine...
While having a film ruined before you've seen it is annoying, he does appear to be talking about a film that was released nine years ago, so it's not like the information isn't out there already. That said, spoiler tags are there for a reason.
Well I RTM'd the post. Laugh if you want but that movie has been on my list to watch for about 8yrs since it came onto streaming services Fortunately I read backwards from this page so I knew to avoid his post.
lol
This thread is quite clearly to recommend or warn people about movies. There's literally no point doing that if you're spoiling them for people in the same sentence

I'd managed to avoid knowing the ending of A Star is Born (all versions!) up until about 3-4 months after the newest version was released on streaming. I think it was probably some idiot on here that spoiled it about a week before I ended up watching it
There's always new generations of people saying "I've never seen Dune", "I've never seen The Shining", etc. Doesn't matter how old a film is, there's always someone who's managed to miss it or just isn't old enough when it was out and everyone else saw it. It seems a bit unfair to "review" a film simply by summarising the plot (including the ending) and spoiling the story for others.
Okay dokey people, all points taken on board.
I'll keep any posts on films to personal opinion with minimal detail!
Scam - I saw the film listed on an an underappreciated list plus the decent actors and gave it a whirl, 8 years is too long to keep this on the backburner
My opinion on the film - *****
Fully star swearwords!

Was actually talking to my wife about The Shining a few months ago, mentioned certain parts and whittling on. Turned to see her looking perplexed and she said she hadn't watched it. Cue a The Shining / Doctor Sleep double bill.
In regards to Dune, my closest friends are all self confessed Sci fi fans but none of them have watched it.
I've watched all three, and while they are all flawed, they all seem to also bring something of value to the story by visualising it in a way you won't have seen it from the books. There are certainly many worse ways you could spend your film-watching hours.
