ecto Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Went to see the 3rd remake of a star is born, with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, did not think I would like it, but it's terrific 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I watched the Limehouse Golem last night. I’ll give it a 7. It was watchable and I like how they told the story but I guessed who the Golem was as soon as I heard the ACES. Bit too obvious imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Venom Unbelievably meh. Though Hardy is pretty good as Eddie Brock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Had a busy week, bleeding my unlimited card dry. Venom Hardy is great as Brock for a start, particularly as the rest of the cast are so one dimensionally average. In all though, I enjoyed it. Tone was a wee bit off as I felt it veered into full blown comedy a lot but some of the symbiote's patter did have me laughing so can't complain. Clearly not at the same level as the MCU in so many ways but a solid effort and hopefully not the last we see of Venom. He's too good a character to not end up in a decent spiderman film Johnny English Strikes Back The original was one of my favourite films when I was younger. Loved quoting it and acting out some of the scenes. The ABBA in the bathroom scene remains a classic. Onto to the new one - it's exactly what you'd expect. Predictable gags, questionable plot and shite villain but a thoroughly entertaining 90 minutes. I am a big fan of films like this that don't take themselves too seriously. Got plenty of laughs out of me and really enjoyed it. Can't wait for the fourth one in another 7 years or so. Also, the film absolutely reeked of brexit which is represented by English teargassing a group of French cyclists 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 "Dead Man Walking" (Netflix) - about a death row prisoner (Sean Penn) who forms a bond with Nun (Susan Sarandon). It's not exactly fun... but it is very good indeed, and the two leads are great (think Sarandon won an Oscar). It's highly recommended, though not one to watch if you're after a quick laugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Bradley Cooper is one of those folk I would love to punch over and over. A Star is Born sounds great though. Would love to be won over but can just see myself stewing in the cinema wanting to spark him out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just gets on my nerves. I didn't mind War Dogs too much. Maybe it's David O. Russell's films that grate rather than Cooper as I really hated Silver Linings Playbook and had to switch off American Hustle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I don't mind Cooper. He's been good in anything I've seen him in but never Oscar worthy. How he got a nomination for American Sniper ahead of Jake Gyllenhaal in Nightcrawler still baffles me. I thought Silver Linings Playbook was a whole lot of nothing. Utter shite but it seems to be well thought of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes don’t mind those type of films (enjoyed Drive for example) but thought Nightcrawler was really disappointing. Far too desperate to be arty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, as I said in the post I don’t mind some hipster, pretentious films, as long as they’re still good. Nightcrawler wasn’t for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Nightcrawler was decent enough but Gyllenhaal's performance easily stood out as the best thing about it for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
