What film did you watch last night?

The Kitchen sent me to sleep.... not sure what all the fuss or hype was on about.

The Beekeeper however 100% entertained till the end, I want more of it and down the road make it like Wick so the other Beekeepers go rogue but the twist is Mr Clay has to go after them to restore natural order to the Hive.

Aquaman - whatever the latest one is called - mostly forgettable and not very engaging. The 2 tone colour scheme did not appeal to me. Characters were mostly boring, story uninspired. Action scenes dunked in over the top CGI, which is all too common these days.
Standout was Jason Momoa who plays the character well, and the guy who plays his brother in the film was ok as well. 5.5/10
 
Argylle - pretty funny but silly at times Matthew Vaughn movie. It's light hearted, over the top but action packed, very similar in parts to the Kingsman movies. 7/10.

Infinity Pool - I want the time back/10.

Absolutely awful. Possessor was much better, but still average. This, on the other hand, is… just save yourselves.
 
Saltburn. 6/10.
Reasonably good although story has been borrowed from a few films. Seemed to be lots of talk about the shock factor that I didn’t think were that bad, expected worse. A mate of mine said it contained the most shocking scene he has ever seen in a film but not really sure what part he meant. Spotted the end twist a mile off. 10/10 for the soundtrack though. Some wicked tunes I’ve not heard for years.
 
The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

I've seen the remake before and while the original is watchable, it does suffer from the age in which it was made when watched with a modem eye.

6/10

The Mission (1986)

Another film that passed me by back when it was originally released. It probably would've been a more impressive film back then, but still good enough to be watched today.

7/10
 
Haunt 8/10

Very generic title but I thought this film was a really rather good slasher that flew in under the radar. No famous faces or anything here but the directors also did the rather dreadful 65, but they also wrote A Quiet Place. It didn't try to give too many answers which I liked and I thought the atmosphere was very well achieved.
 
Badland Hunters - Korean post apocalyptic world where people struggle to survive with basic food and water shortages. There is a threat looming where people are disappearing and the heroes are forced into finding and dealing with the problem. Its quite graphic even gory. very violent in certain scenes which may be disturbing to some. Story is pretty simple but some of the effects are pretty realistic. it was not bad, steady but not mindblowing either. It might be a good movie for those that like these ultra violent Korean movies. Overall would rate it 6.5/10,

Lethal Weapon 3 - 8/10

Great movie. I do wonder, they know who the guy is from very early in the movie. These days I feel like that would be it. They'd just go get him. Back then, finding him was really this hard?

I watched the first one recently and have not done so for years. It reminded me why the Lethal Weapons series (first few) was one the best buddy cop movies at the time. Still pretty good to this day.

If i recall correctly it wasnt just finding him. The immortal "
DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY
" :cry:
