What film did you watch last night?

Lost Bullet / Balle Perdue (2020) - 5/10

A nonsense plot featuring an elite traffic police force who use armoured cars to take out drug runners and a resilient ex-con mechanic with strong morals but no personality of his own.

The action scenes are grounded, as in they don’t have the flashy thrills or spectacle of other movies, but they do have a little bit of everything else in them. Entertaining enough with ok acting.

Greenland (2020) 7.5/10

Much, much better than I expected, I thoroughly enjoyed it! I'm a sucker for disaster movies.

Good Morning Vietnam. 9/10

First time I've actually watched it and it goes straight in as one of my favourites. Robin Williams will forever be one of the greats.

Edge of Tomorrow. 6.5/10

I'm the odd one out here as everyone else seemed to love it. For some reason I didn't really think much of it.

Didn't watch it last night but on the last night before lockdown and I keep thinking about it.

Tenet and it is brilliant, a film that absolutely has to be seen at the cinema or at least on a huge screen with an awesome sound system. It is just brilliant, a bit confusing, the visuals and music is just something else that can't be really described as it is so visceral, I got goosebumps in quite a few scenes. An absolute must watch! I hope Ludwig gets an Oscar for the soundtrack! 10/10

The assistant - 1/10

Some are calling this hyper realism. Story follows a person working in an office, mainly doing boring office stuff...thats it.

"Surrounded" (frenzy) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8805150/

**** acting.

**** CGI.

Just a massive pile of **** overall.

Fractured - 7/10

Quite a good film. Definitely recommend it. A Netflix original.

Really can’t say anything without spoiling it but it’s worth a watch.

In the continuing adventures of a 49 year old man trying to get into horror movies because he's a wuss...

I'd heard very good things about this. For the most part I disagree with them. It was not scary or creepy, apart from

the big dude coming through the door.

I thought the direction and cinematography was excellent, as was most of the acting. The soundtrack was also excellent, very John Carpenter!

6.5/10 from me.

Secretary (2002)

7/10

And am I the only one who considers Maggie a minx?

Richard Jewell. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3513548/

Great performances by the main characters (especially Paul Walter Hauser & Sam Rockwell). Enjoyed this.

Thanks for this, looked it up on your recommendation. Always like Sam Rockwell and also always like movies directed by Eastwood. Felt it jumped a bit at the end (I felt there was more to come from the reporters side of things) but I guess that's just how it played out.

Spiderman into the spiderverse.

Was not expecting much but wow, absolutely amazing!

Greenland - 4/10 - Decent actors for the two leads but a woeful script and story which is almost a carbon copy (in places) of Armageddon/Deep Impact/2012 but without the budget for a lot of the special effects which made those film stand out, making this feel more of a family drama during a time of high stress rather than a "huge disaster" movie so it wasn't want I expected (or was sold by the trailer) so it's a bit of a miss for me.

Hired Gun 7/10 - A documentary film about session and touring musicians that are hired by well established and famous bands and artists like Metallica, KISS, and Billy Joel. These hired guns may not be household names, but are still masters of their craft.

Charlie's Angels (2019) - 5/10

Was not as bad as i thought it would be based on internet outrage.

Greenland

Meh - Rushed ending and a predictable one at that.

Kill List

A bit weird this one. Starts out as a

bit of a family drama, then turns into a hitman movie and then it ends like some pagan Wicker Man thing. Odd!

6/10

Most Ben Wheatley films are odd, funny and good. Recommend you try more if you liked it.
