V.Aye.R Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Couple of ones here. The Midnight Sky Aggressively dull stuff here. I've not long watched it already forgotten the vast majority of stuff that happened. 2/10 Death to 2020 Hit and miss stuff here, but it's a lot more hit than miss so credit where it's due. Most of the characters get better as they go on. The real highlight is the "soccer mommy", which is probably the most on-the-nose character in the thing. 8/10Midnight sky also.Turgid shite and clearly a Clooney vanity project. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit too offbeat for most people, but I'm not most people and I fucking love it. 9/10 I absolutely loved this as a youngster but am wary of watching it again in case i'm disappointed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Eventually watched Godfather 3. Wish i hadn't. It was ok, entertaining enough but completely unengaging and didn't even have the aesthetics of the other 2 to redeem it. 5/10 Just tried watching The Rock after it getting rave reviews on here. Had to turn off after 25 minutes due to unbelievable shitness. 1/10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Due to it being mentioned on here, last night I watched Meghan is Missing. f**k me, that's 85 minutes of my life I'll never get back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I saw an extended advert for either a new edit, or a remaster, of The Godfather III recently. Lasted several minutes. Not a single shot of Sofia Coppola. Smart move. 44 minutes ago, Arch Stanton said: Due to it being mentioned on here, last night I watched Meghan is Missing. f**k me, that's 85 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

The last 15 minutes was brutal, especially that scene. Not a film I'll be rewatching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilostmyself Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I'm not sure it had to go to the lengths that it did though. The speed of the tone shift is pretty jarring as well, which didn't help those matters at all. There's a movie called Trust that David Schwimmer directed which probably does a much better job of telling much the same story, albeit with no horror.Trust was an absolutely brutal watch, stuck with me for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Will have to give Trust a spin. If we're building a "dangers of the internet" theme, Searching wasn't a bad film. Quite like John Cho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Wonder Woman 84 I actually liked the first one, but this is a genuinely nonsensical film, Gadot is also a terrible actress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Wonder Woman 84 I actually liked the first one, but this is a genuinely nonsensical film, Gadot is also a terrible actress.After a few days thinking on it I have to agree. Far too long runtime, piss poor CGI, absurd plot points and awful script. Chris Pine was probably the best thing about it and he didn't really serve any purpose being there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Thw King of Staten Island Semi autobiographical story based on Pete Davidson from Saturday Night Live. Really funny and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy in parts. That's the review. Go watch it. Only £1.99 just now on Prime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see somebody else mention this. I assume everyone was just so happy to finally see Wonder Woman on the big screen that they didn't want to think too much about who was playing her. She's an expressionless doll. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 The trailers made out that the word Tenet would be really important too. He said it once to that gun scientist lady then that was it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
