Cerberus Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Ghostbusters 3. Funny in moments but the last 15/20 minutes with the "fight scene" was shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Watched the Andy Samberg movie "Popstar - Never Stop Never Stopping" last night. Very much Spinal Tap for the current generation. Thought it was very funny in parts and definitely a worthy tribute to Spinal Tap. 8/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 American Honey Never seen so many folk walk out of a film. It was just so long and without much of a plot it was probably just too plodding for many. I didn't mind it as debut girl Sasha Lane was so incredible to watch. Shia LaBoeuf continues to atone for Transformers and Elvis' granddaughter was horrible/wid (especially in her Confederate flag bikini). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 The MartianFinally got round to watching this. Thought it was a pretty decent watch but could have been done in under 2 hours. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Downfall - German film with subtitles about the last ten days or so of World War Two, based in Hitler's bunker. You've almost certainly seen one of the parody clips with Hitler losing it, and new subtitles so it looks as if he's commenting on some topical event. If this film is accurate then he really was batshit crazy at the end. Getting twelve-year-old kids to face up to the Red Army, and having his own generals shot for retreating. Also amazing how some of his officers stayed loyal right to the end. Powerful stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I watched that too, even though I've seen it before. A great film, albeit grim as f**k.Goebbels was even worse than Hitler, I reckon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Should've put that in a spoiler for people that haven't seen it! Germany lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Have you watched Hitler: The Rise of Evil, with Robert Carlyle? I watched that some time after Downfall and was shocked to see the Geobbels actually opposed Hitler in the early days. I wonder if it was a case of Hitler keeping his enemy's closer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Anthropoid Cillian Murphy, Toby Jones and Jamie Dornan in a film about the Czech plot to kill the third in command in the Nazi party in WW2. Decent film, and quite brutal at times. 8/10 Imperium Daniel Radcliffe and Toni Colette. Harry Potter is a fake Nazi who works for the FBI. Bit of a bore and predictable. 5/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Ouija: Origin of EvilSurprisingly very good horror here. Much more reliant on trying to create some actual tension than just going for the cheap jumps although it does get a bit too much in the final act. Also, actual likeable characters all over the place. Must be a first for a mainstream horror. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I, Daniel Blake 7/10 Pretty decent film, could have done with being a BIT more subtle tbh but some good scenes and performances to remind people that tories are c***s always and forever -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 My Scientology Movie 6.5/10 Very enjoyable as Louis is never anything but a supremely engaging presence but not massively insightful I guess. Funniest thing was if the sciento-mentalists hadn't been all over his D about making the film he probably wouldn't have even had a film to make -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen it years ago but have forgotten most of it. It was pretty good, IIRC. I find the Nazis morbidly fascinating. I always end up watching any old stuff about them even though they are often quite upsetting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find Rommel to be a morbid curiosity, by all accounts he seemed to be a loyal German soldier and a fair person. From what I understand, any POW's under his authority were treated very well. He was loyal to his country, even tho he disagreed with what they were fighting for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Watched a film on him the other day, with James Mason, "The Desert Fox".Was pretty good, portrayed him as a tragic character.There's apparently another film starring Mason as Rommel which is less sympathetic but I haven't seen it yet. Hopefully Film4 will stick it on sometime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Permanently tuned to the History Channel then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Have you not watched it recently?The History Channel is now just nothing but "bloke finds something in an attic and tries to sell it" reality TV programmes, interspersed with documentaries "proving" that aliens caused the Pyramids/Battle of Hastings/Wall Street Crash/Hibs Cup win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killienick Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) Grosse Pointe Blank 10/10 This is a personal favourite but I probably hadn't watched it for a couple of years. It's just brilliant and will never get old. Edited October 26, 2016 by killienick 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
