xNicola_Ghirl1888x Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Watched Legend this week. Tom Hardy gets 10/10 for playing both brothers amazingly & wearing a suit like naebody else. The film gets 7/10. It was good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A really underrated trilogy which ends very strongly. It's probably the best of the 3 films. The story is tremendous, the score is outstanding and it's pretty bittersweet as well with some great comic relief thrown in. Andy Serkis really is the master of motion capture acting. The scene where the little girl gave Caesar the doll is very touching. Edited July 14, 2017 by Kyle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Stasis Not counting this on my total or even score it as I couldn't stomach even 2 minutes of it, but worth a mention to ward anyone else off it. Was going through Netflix trying to find something worth watching. This caught my fancy, post-apocalyptic film where people apparently will travel back in time from 2067 to 2017 to stop the apocalypse. Gave up after around 90 seconds after a horrendous poundstretcher Akira/Terminator apocalypse fireball and then a cut to two renegades walking in the desert where the ruins of civilisation are shown by a phone lying in the detritus that would have been out of place in the 1980s. Seriously 90 seconds. Switched it off -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 (148) It Comes At Night 8/10 Probably my film of the year outside of Baby Driver. Bleak as FOCK, key themes: FEAR and ISOLATION. Not a horror despite the title. (cinema) -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 (149) Spiderman 7(?): Yet More Spiderman 6/10 This was actually a much better high school comedy than it was a superhero film, the schoolfriends were much more fun and interesting than the villain and his gang. Andrew Garfield was a much better Spidey imo but Marvel just make better films. (Tobey Maguire was shite). Good fun though possibly the worst Marvel film since Age of Ultron. Too much RDJ and John Favreau keeps getting fatter and fatter. (cinema) -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like how the Spidey suit became basically an Iron Man suit that shot webs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Co.Down Hibee Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Eddie the Eagle (Netflix) Feel good film based on the life of Eddie Edwards, a few familiar faces including Hugh Jackman , clichéd as hell but good fun ,not sure how close it is to the real story. 6/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure 10/10 One of my fav movies ever, so was introducing it to the kids, still found it really funny, some bits have aged, but still dont think it affects the movie that much, still a really fun, incredibly stupid movie Lone Ranger 5/10 ok-ish movie, a few laughs, and some ok action and some poor CGI a times. If you enjoy Johnny Depp doing Jack Sparrow, this is him doing basically the same, but as Tonto 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn was a great film but War was as good if not better. Easily a 9/10 film if not 10/10 as you both say. Acting was absolutely superb and I found it to be quite an emotional film in large parts. One I'd probably go back and see again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 War for the Planet of the Apes Pretty much everything with the apes was great here. Apart from the opening scenes, when the humans started to come on screen more, it went downhill pretty much every time. A properly shit villain with an army who can't hit a fucking thing, and who make quite frankly baffling decisions in the heat of battle. The big climax is pretty much signposted all of the way but the final battles themselves are pretty spectacular and great to watch. So it's up to the apes to really make up the rest of the slack, and they manage to do so pretty well. This one isn't close to the other two movies which were properly brilliant, but it's fun enough. 6/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Blade Runner (The Final Cut) 35 years on and the special effects are still stunning. This version should have been released a lot sooner than it was but it was worth the wait, it is a stunning piece of sci-fi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamJags Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Crash - 9/10Just watched this for the first time. Got to be one of the most intense films I've ever seen. It exaggerates that it's making statements about race far too much, but aside from that, it's pretty much a flawless film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The Beguiled Sofia Coppola remake of sleazy 70s film of the same name (this time with Colin Farrell in the Clint Eastwood role). Yankee soldier is wounded and desserts. Is found by a young girl in the grounds of a girls' finishing school. Various shenanigans ensue, sex, jealousy, violence. Nothing earth shattering but perfectly decent, good acting, good-looking film. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
