11thHour Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Captain America:Civil War - 6/10. Thought this really dragged on and wasn't convincing enough throughout. Funny at times and decent action but after a while I lost complete interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Everybody Wants Some - 8/10. Thought this was great. Not a lot actually happens, but thoroughly entertaining. The two hours flew in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Whiskey Tango Foxtrot - 7/10. Tina Fey stars as a journalist who is sent to Afghanistan to cover what's happening out there. Pretty enjoyable film which features Martin Freeman with the most stereotypical Scottish accent of all time, Margot Robbie (not in it enough), Billy Bob Thornton and that "hot guy from Home & Away" (according to my better half). Funny and well written. Slow start but picked up enough to get high marks from myself! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 True Story Thought James Franco was superb as man accused of killing his family in this true life drama. Also thought Jonah Hill was good as the journalist who got to know him before writing s book. Quite a few twists in the film which made it enjoyable. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Age of Apocalypse. I really wanted to like this film. Have fond memories of the character from the 90s animated show and when First Class start it gave the films a shot in the arm. Since however Singer has come back we have gone back to xmen 3 territory. Biggest problem in this film is still trying to use Jennifer Lawrence character as a focal point. Just stop. The story was a bit of a mess and some of it ott even for me. 5/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not heard great things about this final installment though but feel the need to see it through having watched the others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Par-NO1 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Bad Neighbours 2 6/10 Much the same as the first one tbh. Some funny bits but nothing special. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 2 Guns Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg in a decent and pretty funny, in places, movie about two cops getting mixed up with the CIA and drug dealers. Also Paula Patton. wid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply 'X-Men: Apocalypse'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Southpaw wasn't impressed with it at all, had high hopes when I saw the cast and I'm a sucker for a boxing movie (cliched as hell that they are) but this was a dissapointment, The death scene of JG missus was the kind of thing parodied by Stiller and RJD in Tropic Thunder, , the only saving grace was Forest Whittaker who gave a cracking turn as the trainer.3/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim O'Grady Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Race. Clever title for the Jesse Owens story, it works on 2 levels see. Interesting biopic even though we all know the result. Never hurt the Titanic films, did it. Interesting to show the political situations & how one was abhorred, quite rightly & yet the other was accepted at home. Poignant bit at the end when he goes to the dinner that is held in his honour. 8/10. Grimbo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killienick Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Legend 5/10 Mixed bag of a film. Two excellent performances from Hardy but the film is let down by some far weaker supporting characters. It's a fresher take on the Kray's story and shies away from focusing too much on the violence and extortion etc but instead tries to focus on the contrasting nature of the 2 brothers. The film fails for me because it is too predictable due to the nature of the protagonists and there is really no-one to care for. Most characters are thoroughly dislikeable. Even Reg's wife is so thinly characterised that her plight isn't the emotional payoff it should be. Hardy is brilliant though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Robot and Frank 8/10 So much better than it sounds.. Set in the near future, an old guy is starting to lose his memory. His kids struggle to keep an eye on him so get him a helper robot. Old boy was a burglar and gets the robot to start helping him with robberies. They strike up a friendship and.. not much happens. Just a really sweet, funny film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) X-Men: Apocalypse was a solid 8/10 for me. Maybe I was just in a great mood yesterday when I went to see it. In reality it's probably a 6/10! Edited May 23, 2016 by JamieStevenson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I'd go with 6/10 for X-Men: Apocalypse. Could have been higher if not for the absolutely fucking terrible big battle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Sing Street - 9/10. A group of kids in Ireland form a band. Same director as Once, and is a similar plot. Cheesy at times, but loved it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
