Very low key in terms of its set pieces and doesn't rely heavily on death and destruction like many of the genre, but it's so well shot with some spot on acting. Harry Styles is a w**k though. Would you change anything about it? If not, it’s a perfect film. In your opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Harry Styles was fine in it, to be fair. Yeah, I know just his character annoyed me. Plus I had the misfortune of working at his last gig and have little time for him as a result! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Co.Down Hibee Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Jurassic World 2(cinema) Follows the formula of the Jurrasic films although a little more thought provoking in terms of the welfare of the dinasaurs in this , sets up the next one which probably should be the final episode. Loads of nods to the original .7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched this pretty recently answer also found it a good watch, also interested in the situation from a historical angle. I was always interested that the German army never went in and finished the allied forces off while stranded on the beach while awaiting evacuation but instead halted short of Dunkirk. Thankfully things did not turn out differently. It was a fantastic achievement to evacuate so many in such difficult circumstances. Thankfully the Germans then were unable to overcome the RAF and Royal Navy to allow Operation Sea Lion to become reality. Hitler then making the suicidal decision to proceed with Operation Barbarossa instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed journeys end and they are both really good in it. It's one of the better ww1 films, though to be honest, that isn't difficult as there arn't that many good films about that conflict. I suppose the static nature of trench warfare doesn't lend itself to exciting film making.

The first term which springs to mind is claustrophobic but i'm sure that was the intention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would disagree that ww1 doesn't make for exciting film making, journeys end shows that I think,tension and claustrophobia are just as exciting as bullets and bangs. I agree with you about the lack of great films from then.i assume its because in the immediate aftermath of the conflict film was in its infancy,when it came of age it had a brand new,more recent(and therefore more immediately relevant) conflict to concentrate on. great ww1 films-all quiet on the western front(esp black and white one but the colour ones ok too) paths of glory Gallipoli the blue max Lawrence of arabia id really be pushing the boundries if I said dr zhivago I suppose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
