What film did you watch last night?

Dune 1984
then
Dune 2021
Never seen either before. Story was pretty good.
There were times the cast and theatricality of 1984 definitely seemed better than the 2021s higher quality sfx and technical complexity.
Javier Bardem looked exactly like Oliver Reed.

What hype, think that is about its average score on here. These things go to top of netflix because everyone has watched everything else already.
Saw 'news articles' saying its the biggest film buuuuut as you say, its probably has everyone is bored and went to watch it due to the cast.

Intrusion (2021)
A Netflix original film, which should have been warning enough. A wholly unoriginal, totally predicable thriller, completely devoid of any thrills.
Save yourself 90 minutes of life and don't bother. Or just watch the first 15 minutes and guess the rest. Trust me you'll be spot on.
The synopsis should have read, movie characters do the dumbest things and are too stupid for words.
2/10
Don't know what the 2 points are for. Actually it's for the house most of the film takes place in. Would've like to have seen a Grand Designs episode on it.

Marathon Man https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074860/
I've seen it several times before but it's one of the greats, IMO.
If you haven't seen it and like thrillers, then you should.

Watched Layer Cake last night 8/10 film for me, its aged well and I really enjoyed this British gangster type file
Layer cake is an absolute classic.
The Intimidation Game - 7/10.
Benedict Cumberbatch really is a brilliant actor and weirdly just seen the post above also mentions him!
Indeed, i read he went on a massive strict diet for 3 months and shed stones for the filming of it. I barely recognised him towards the end!
Is it safe
Yes, it's safe, it's very safe, it's so safe you wouldn't believe it.

14 Peaks on Netflix - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14079374/
Really enjoyed it!
It's about a Nepali ex- Gurkha and Uk special forces and his Nepalese sherpa team climbing the 14 highest peaks in 6 months.
If you're into mountains, hiking, mountaineering, etc. you should enjoy it.

Cry Macho, Ok at best, felt Clint was a bit old for the role tbh, he just looked like the oap he is, not someone capable of one punching and punching above 
saying that he was the best actor and to give him his dues at his age you gotta hand it to him. The IMDB rating is probably on the low side but fair.

The Harder They Fall
Rather nice really. It's on Netflix and reminded me a lot of Django Unchained. If you like the style of Tarantino's direction, then this is a nice easy to follow flick with some cool bits to show for it.

Sonic The Hedgehog - 4/10
The film version of wallpaper paste. It looks fine, the cast is alright, it is utterly and instantly forgettable. Everything that Detective Pikachu got right this didn't.
