What film did you watch last night?

arc@css · 9 Mar 2021 at 11:23

The Fugitive.

Still as good as I recall.

One quite nice thing was that despite seeing it a number of times in the past, I had forgotten several chunks of it, so it was a plus not knowing what was about to happen.

Great performances by Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones.

Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell - 3/5

Drug dealer turned rapper becomes famous then gets shot dead.

Watch if you want to learn how he grew up, want to see some old footage of him and/or listen to interviews from people you've probably never heard of. Avoid if you're expecting a decent amount of rapping or didn't like him.

I watched Thelma and Louise last night.

Christopher Plummer is great in this, as are the other actors.

Thanks for the heads up, seems right up my street, will watch at the weekend

Greenland. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7737786/

I wasn't expecting this to be much but I actually quite enjoyed it.

I haven't seen many films with Gerard Butler in but I thought his performance was decent.

New Jack City. Been years since seen it so was like watching it fresh. Good if a little dated. 7/10

Watched this last night on Blu-ray, not a great transfer but a great film. Tommy Lee Jones steals the show.

8/10

Maybe I'll watch U.S. Marshals in the near future.

Big thank you for this recommendation one of the best movies I've seen in a while.

Both classic 90s movies!

The Fugitive is a step above though.

Annihilation.... with Natalie Portman.
A decent enough watch as it's kinda different but it didn't really grab me. 4k uhd BR transfer was also not that great given its 4K DI.

Coming to America 2, meh it was ok'ish.

The Limey 1999

A Steven Soderbergh film starring Terrance Stamp, as an English career criminal who goes to Los Angeles to find out what happened to his daughter.

Never seen it or heard about it until recently. Not your typical revenge film either and all the better for it.

8/10

Mr Right 2015 - Found this really funny and its a good film to watch with the mrs 7/10

Grosse point blank - Classic one of my favs 9/10

Nitefly · 12 Mar 2021 at 22:53

Heat - the Pacino / Di Nero vehicle.

Ehhh... just about OK, I think. It failed to keep interesting. A good set up leads to an absolute preposterous gun shootout and a really, really unduly long final section where the film just sort of goes on and on.

6/10

Helen Barber · 12 Mar 2021 at 23:02

Has anyone seen that prison escape movie with Harry potter in? lol

Any good?
