What film did you watch last night?

'The Lord of the Rings : The war of the Rohirrim'

Disappointing. About 30 minutes too long, generic girl boss stuff

Quite enjoyed this. It seemed to hold my attention for the duration, so overall, a decent experience.

Watched Black Adam, the definition of average, felt just like pretty much every other superhero movie i have watched recently and brought nothing new to the table.

I quite like horror films, and I've probably watched more than my fair share of not particularly good ones (like the Saw marathon I did earlier this year lol). It's definitely not bad, I think the feel of unease in the first half is well done and I like the evil Jonathan Creek feel of Grant's character. Just felt the resolution was very 'oh crap how do we finish this"

Now I watched The Descent last night having not seen that for ages, now that is a class film throughout.

I think The Descent is one of the best horrors of the 2000's, the feeling of claustrophobic dread is immense and it was a fantastic follow up to Dog Soldiers.
Its a shame Neil Marshall hasn't done anything as good as those two since.

Yeah i was looking at his wikipedia page last night, it's baffling how he made 2 good films and then just utter crap since.

I didn't actually think Doomsday was that bad, kinda like his homage to Escape from New York but it wasn't up to the standard of his first two films, Centurion was just bland and i have avoided his Hellboy film after hearing about it.
