stanton Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Watching The Girl in The Spiders Web again , it’s 10 am the shop’s not open yet , too early for my daily exercise and I’ve nothing left to clean in the flat . I’ve been watching the old Margret Rutherford Miss Marple and Basil Rathbone’s Sherlock Holmes movies on TCM too . I’ve a few others recorded to get through, Spider with Ben Kingsley , The Big Lebowski and Argo so loads to get through 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is, and always will be, the best Sherlock. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let that put you off. Paddington 2 is still excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Blades Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Watched Hotel Mumbai the other night and really enjoyed it. Quite tense at times although you know roughly how it ends. 8/10 Tried to watch Jo Jo Rabbit but turned it off after a while - thought it was shit although some rave about it. 2/10Where did you find Jo Jo Rabbit? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Movie 17 (Kid #1) -- Central Intelligence 6.5/10. Probably would've enjoyed this more had I not watched it a few weeks ago. Perfectly watchable still, but I feel I know the script as well as anyone in the movie at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustOneCornetto Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Blue Ruin (2013) Low budget revenge thriller with a bit of a Coen Brothers feel to it. Seen this quite a few times, just love the tone and the tension throughout. 9/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Hart playing the same character he always plays. An enjoyable watch but I feel all his films just blend into one for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely agree. I became convinced that I'd posted on here about it before and because I have nothing else to do, I trawled through my old posts and eventually found it. Your summary pretty much matches up with what I thought two years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen this quite a few times, just love the tone and the tension throughout. 9/10It's brilliant. The first 20/25 minutes is one of my all-time favourite openings - pretty sure there's almost no dialogue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 The Untouchables. Bears up pretty well considering it's over thirty years old. Accent aside*, Connery is outstanding, and De Niro plays himself as well as he ever has. * Why does everyone bring up this particular minor example of inappropriate accent, and leave Brad Pitt alone for that abomination in "Basterds"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said yes. Then asked how long the first one was. Dis gunna b gud. Fellowship done. Added scenes really do enhance everything, and Boromir comes off a lot better due to it. Still a tremendous film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Underwater 5/10Tries to be The Abyss, Alien, The Meg etc all rolled together and fails. Plus the sound is a bit iffyFinding The Way Back 7.5/10Ben Affleck plays a former high school superstar basketball player who throws it all away and ends up turning into an alcoholic after the death of his child and marriage break up. He then is asked to coach his former high school team (who just happen to be rank) and turn them back into contenders. Affleck obviously using his own addictions as a guideSorry We Missed You 5/10Film from social commentator and all round good guy Ken Loach about the perils of self employment and labour exploitation. A tough watch at times but not a patch on 'I Am Daniel Blake' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Official Secrets. Keira Knightley stars as Katherine Gunn, GCHQ whistleblower. Worth a watch, if only to remind ourselves what a set of lying c***s were in charge here and in the U.S.at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Movie 18 (Kid #2) -- Shrek 7/10. Of course it's a good movie but I've seen it so often that I focus on Mike Meyers shite Scottish accent. Got caught up with Words With Friends, tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverton End Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Cool Hand Luke (1967) One of my favourite movies, big George Kennedy's finest hour as 'Dragline'. Just brilliant 10/10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
