What film did you watch last night?

[Royal Fleet]

News of the World. - 7/10

Western of sorts with Tom Hanks. A bit uneven but worth a watch. Hanks as ever is very good. It suffers from that 'long book made into 2 hour film' issue of having to jump through all the main sequences at a breathless pace whilst trying to let the characters develop. Would have been better as a 4 part series imo.

The Lighthouse

Strange and engrossing... the less said the better.

8/10

 

[Converge]

Ant Man and The Wasp

Our final Marvel film - it wasn't great.

I was going to watch this as it’s the only one I’ve not seen, but then watched Soul instead. Sounds like I made the right choice!

Yeah I think you chose wisely.

Watched the three John Wick films over the last three weekends.

1. Original, fresh and tight.
2. More of the same with a little bit added.
3. More of the same with not much added.

1 and 2 are 4/5 films, 3 didn't grab me as much and I am not hugely excited about the prospect of 4.

I agree with that summary. The characters needed to be fleshed out more, especially Hanks as he was more or less unknown to us. Still enjoyed it overall though.

Sound of metal 7.5/10
Its about a heavy metal drummer who goes deaf. Really good story and performances. Excellent film.

Desperate to see this, where is it available in the UK?

We watched Greenland last night. 5/10. Perfectly decent but nothing worth writing home about.

Jo Jo rabbit, I laughed, I cried.
Great film start to finish 10/10

New of the World - 6½/10

I almost expected a faster pace movie with the comments above. Was a decent enough watch. I assume the book gives more back story.

3:10 to Yuma 8/10
I'm not normally that bothered with Westerns, but this is a great film. Christian Bale and Russell Crowe are both excellent. Really good story, plenty of action too.

 

[LizardKing]

Willy's wonderland. If you like a cheesy Nickolas cage then this is the one for you! A solid 7/10 if you can switch your brain off.

The FNAF guys must be up in arms on this one though.

 

[Helen Barber]

Just watched peanut butter falcon.= 6.5

 

[Tombstone]

3:10 to Yuma 8/10
I'm not normally that bothered with Westerns, but this is a great film. Christian Bale and Russell Crowe are both excellent. Really good story, plenty of action too.

One of those rarest of things imo, a remake thats actually better than the original.

 

[Malevolence]

Avengers: Endgame

One of those rarest of things imo, a remake thats actually better than the original.

The original is actually pretty good too, I've seen them both. Perhaps I should watch more westerns.

Triple Frontier (2019) 7/10

Perfect valentines movie....

Its alright in parts, cliche, good main cast, i do confess to me the suspense and build up in parts being good but it kinda lost me towards the end.

Id watch it if you have nothing better to do.

Seven - 9/10

I love this film. On a rewatch I was suprised at how much humour there is. It's not comedic as such, but feels very real. On of my favourites.

 

[Martynt74]

Black Water:Abyss - 5/10. It's ok and passes the time. Basically some people go exploring a cave, get trapped by floodwater and attacked my a crocodile.


Have also been watching Star Wars recently. My wife is a fan, but i'd never watched them. So far watched the 3 newer ones, so about to go onto Rogue 1 and Hans Solo and then move back to the old ones. They're alright, but not sure i'm quite getting the hype. Maybe that comes from the originals?

TBH, the original three films are the ones that count (eps 4/5/6). The rest are optional.

Your Name (Kimi No Na Wa)

For like the 7th time, as it was Valentines and my wife and I love it.

Still utterly beautiful, the soundtrack, the scenery, the feels.
