Galaxy Quest
Not seen in years but came up on the NFLX
what a fun film, good combination of mocking star trek but also a bit of a homage

Very good movie. Michael Douglas is one hell of an actor.
I really loved the opening of this, some of the shots of impending doom where really well done and got the scale of things right, but then, well, it just did nothing for a very long time till the end.

A Christmas Gift From Bob - 9/10
Sequel to Streetcat and I actually enjoyed this more than the original. All the more poignant by the dedication at the end to "Bob" who died earlier this year, sadly as a result of being struck by a car. Made me reflect a little on the sometimes unfairness of life, both to the man and the cat, for it to end like that.

great yes, wasn't sure of the xmas relevance - family politics ?
have now queued up God Bless America seems in a similar mould
Saw the original Reacher, 2nd one was meh, but, first has an intelligent plot, versus a lot of Cruise.

If you are an Andy Samberg fan, give this nihilistic comedy a go blind, which is what I did and really enjoyed the movie as a result of knowing nothing about it.
7/10

I remember someone earlier in the thread really not liking it ... but I like both him and Cristin Milioti and thought it was a good time.

I enjoyed this too and like you knew nothing about it going into it.

His house 6/10
Horror film set against the backdrop of immigration. Not too bad actually.

Breakdown with Kurt Russell. Not in the same class as Dual or Deliverance but a solid movie.

Just recently re-watched Starwars prequal trilogy. After all the special effects of the most recent trilogy with the exception of AOTC I rate both TPM and ROTS as better films and true to star wars. AOTC only downside is that the CGI is terrible. If it maybe got redone it could be a lot better as the immersion is just not there.
Looking back 7,8,9 are just nostalgia movies with 8 being a total farce.

Train to Busan 2 (Sky) - loved the first film so had high hopes for this one. Unfortunately those hopes werent really delivered, whereas the first one was a really well done and quite suspenseful zombie flick with some decent sfx, the second one was a largely by the numbers zombie flick with some surprisingly poor cgi. Still worth a watch if you particularly like Asian "horror" or just generally like zombies but dont be expecting anything close to the first film 6/10
Just finished watching all the main vacation movies after watching the first on nextflix
National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) was great National
Lampoon's European Vacation was great almost as good as the first I enjoyed it even better it had cameos of my from 2 of my favourite British actors robbie coltrane and Eric Idle
Vegas Vacation was worth a watch not as good as the first two.
Vacation (2015) I had high hopes for it but was a load of ****, the people who made this must be idiots or not have read the script. just save time and watch the trailers they are the only good parts
but my favourite is
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation IMO its the best on of the lot and a great xmas movies, I only started watching the rest after watching this a number of times, not watched it yet this year.
