[Spoiler Alert] Film reviews and ratings

Joker film was pure pish. Don't even know what else to say.

 

aye I watched that recently Naka, a good film with understated scenes like the torture/murder of an escaped servant by his 'master' as culmination of a party, unreal.

 

Watching Abominable with granddaughter.
She’s engrossed in it.

 

Strange Darling. Pretty mental but enjoyed it. The hotel room scene nearish the start my Mrs was asking what the * I'd put on, and was kinda thinking the same for a but it ended up developing into a decent story, few twists.

 

Heretic

Fantastic film. Hugh Grant is very good in this, and it's well written, clever, thoughtful, menacing, charming and funny. Trailer is a bit misleading, more of a psychological thriller than a horror. Highly recommend.

Speaking f highly recommend...

Conclave

Another well written, tense and enthralling with superb performances from the cast, headed by Ralph Fiennes. There are more than a few twists in this, which makes for an intriguingstory, but for the final one which just happens and monologues, but thereafter doesnt change anything ultimately, but overall was hooked from go to woah.

Anora

Another really good movie, but it feels kind of like a movie very much in three distinctive parts... Pretty Woman, becomes Where's Wally? etc. My biggest gripe is with the resolution at the end. Have sat through it twice now, and both times have been left a bit bemused and uncertain about the last scene.

 

Might watch Kneecap again. They've really wound up the huns today, pictures outside their * stadium and putting stickers up.

 

It's on Amazon Prime now, for anyone who hasn't caught this movie yet. One of the top 5-6 of the year so far.

 

Guess who's back in the news.

 

Smile 2. Dire.

 

‘Assault on Precinct 13’ - (1976) - I’d forgotten how eerie and good this film was!

 

if you can overlook that needless twist at the end that doesn’t go anywhere anyway, I thought it was generally pretty good, especially the acting.

Thought this was ok. Very clearly whoever wrote this was watching ‘12 Angry Men’ and thought, what if… as the very clear inspiration for this movie. Solid and serviceable film (which is still better than so many others out there) but not top tier Eastwood.

 

Had the flu so been relaxing & watching some movies. While looking for something to watch, you realise how much * is made these days. IPTV is a nightmare to find something to watch within all the *.

Kneecap 7/10 - Didn't think it would be any good but was really surprised. They put a good story together with a good amount of laughs. Really reminded me of the tv show The young offenders.

American Me 8/10 - Not seen this since it was out in the 90's on pirate VHS from the US. I wasn't sure it would hold up but was a s good as i remembered.

Law abiding citizen 7/10 - Always really liked this one but not seen it in ages, really good action film.

State of grace 8/10 - I was told to watch this one & wasn't sure if i had seen it. Within the the first scene with Penn realised i had seen it. Really good movie with some well known names, Oldman is brilliant in this one.
