What film did you watch last night?

Skiptrace (2016) - 3/10

The fight scenes are entertaining slapstick and martial arts, the goofy and silly fun that we’ve come to love from Chan’s movies, but everything else between these scenes is poor.

The plot and characters are weak, the acting is nothing special and the series of hijinks they get caught up in become more and more silly and disjointed and irrelevant as the film progresses.

There is some interesting bits on modern Mongolian culture and other eastern traditions as well as some stunning scenery, but the combination of eastern and western styles doesn’t last and the ending was terribly cheesy.

Watched this last night and enjoyed!

Personally a little disappointed as it was less spooky than I anticipated, needed more menace. Fats is really good though!

Hopkins handling a deck of cards, clearly see he had rehearsed for the role; not a skill you learn overnight!

Tropic Thunder (2008)
Some genuine laughs. 8/10

Out of Sight (1998)
Great cast, Clooney was excellent. 8.5/10

Indecent Proposal (1993)
Damn Demi was fine in this movie. Redford an absolute creep. 6.5/10


All on 4K UHD. First 2 were top remasters, 3rd was okay.
 
Mr Nobody 2009. Been meaning to watch this for a long time.

Thought the opening was amazing and thought i was in for a treat, but lost it's way a little towards the end and became slightly pretentious. 2 and a half hours runtime too!!

That being said, enjoyed this and worth the watch.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi. 8/10

Been meaning to watch this for a long time, as it has both Jim and Roy from The Office (US).

Great film, wouldn't have known it was from Michael Bay, it was that good :D

I recall the original events the movie was based on, which made it more interesting, even if it isn't 100% historically accurate.

Will watch again at some point
