Good fight choreography. That is all.

12 angry men, 24 angrier sweat patches

His😭bro😭rolled😭for😭him😭

Bloated, convoluted, fun but stupid

On a second watch, at home and outside the cinema, I was thinking ‘what was good about this besides the river scene?’

But then there’s the scene where his missus wins the argument and makes him to go back to his bosses and make a massive request of them by convincing him ‘it’s what Hitler would’ve wanted darling’

It’s simplicity stands, it’s the best British horror of the 21st century.

All the old logos made me nostalgic.

But there is no excuse now that Disney money is involved in this that it should be so fuzzy - sharpen this up if you’re going to sell a 4k boxset in the future.

Everything folks are saying.

Vapid. Incoherent. Insane.

I love going to the cinema, I do it almost every day. I mean it - go and see something else.

Yeah there’s a single line in this film where it picks up some serious stress…

Cinematic AF, saw the roots of LOTR easily but maybe that was intended?

Actually kind of underwhelmed with the opening for Act 3, Act 1 was the best.

A shame the subtitles gave out a few times.

Oh you scared? You watch Thunderbolts and Minecraft Movie but you dont watch Sinners more than once…

Edit: It hit me, this is like Shaun of the Dead…

I wasn’t going to see this on the trailer but then I googled it, saw it was Oscar Wilde and thought thats probably on the nose then. It was pretty amazing.

Also, between this and The Wedding Banquet I’ve managed to catch two (pretty decent) comedies about a poly-quadrouple in the space of the week. Maybe the world is too woke and I AM woke.

So, I went in blind. I only knew a basis of this series, and by that just that it’s brother and sister and she is a half-demon. All I can say is solid anime, I love Inosuke.

It would’ve been a little on the nose to call the main bad guy Elvis wouldn’t it?

One of those downward spiral films with a third act like Apocalypse Now where the film and you lose your mind.

What a weird silver lining to the existence of homophobia that we can have a decent, wholesome film about when it’s conquered

Starts off like a continental Norman Wisdom film and then yeah… the rest of it

I was in a really good mood and then I saw this (complimentary)

Edit; but seriously this is something the fellas caught up in manosphere stuff should watch.

Is this legacy sequel to the 2000 hit now a millenial cry for help as it feeds into the parental apologist fantasy and ponders why our parents had us just to damn us?

Great to close my 20s on tbh.

A very thin plot but it gets points for FX, Tony Todd and tortoises

These films certainly lost their charm quick, nice to have a bit more of a real character plot in this one. The anti-American Pie, a true last gasp of 90s style and a record player on screen.

Onto the new one…

Somehow this counts as Eurovision prep. I will not explain this further.

Edit: Pope Beetlejuice

: The Movie

But seriously, utterly beyond its time and features career performance highlights from some of our modern titans.

Monty Python does nineteen eighty-four and Blade Runner

This review may contain spoilers.

Almost perfect but the accents are a stretch sometimes. And Mom made a good point, if you had a duplication machine, you’d just put money in it.

The true athiest film of the decade

MAGA Mean Girls

Seriously this is Birth of a Nation levels of problematic. A film for educating people on bad manners.

Just what I expect of films that deliberately pace themselves to make the franchise anchor films look better.

Edit: (Th)und(e)r(boy)lt(s)

A better film when watched on a Sunday. I was thinking it’s the absolute antithesis of a haunted house film. Best watched subbed, I do need to branch out and watch some more teriary Ghobli films.

A film of life lessons ultimately.

“There’s always a bigger fish”

“No need to report anything until there is something to report”

I was brought back to this by the new predtar trailer, I think we’ll 100% see a reboot film in the next 5 odd years, or next year if they need the money lets be honest.

I love this really quite camp film with a unique final girl for the time. A proper gateway film for action bros to get interested in cosmic horror.

The proto sci-fi film that started it all imho.

Truly an experience I won’t forget, watching this was immensely special. The kindest guy let me and my friends watch this privately in one of Britain’s oldest cinemas. Just history of cinema, history of scifi all wrapped into one showing.

Thank you Richard.

Watched at the Black Country Living Museum Cinema, one of the oldest in the UK

I mean I saw Inception in the spinning boat scenes. The melodrama was really innocent and charming.

“Weak”

I noticed the chair Palpatine sits in when he is captured on the Separatist ship is very similar to his throne in ROTJ. I know it’s really that Lucas was probably giving us a parallel to consider (“it’s like poetry, they rhyme”)… but…

In canon, it does mean that the biggest, baddest Dark Lord of the Sith going was sat there watching their masterplan unfold, but did take a moment to note how much they liked this chair and how he’ll be ordering one when he gets home…

Anyway - it’s the best one 🙌🏼

God damn I want PlayStation films to do at least okay if they’re going to insist on a further 8 odd releases, but this doesn’t fill me with hope.

Just… by the numbers horror. Trying not to be more significant than the game. Thanks for ruining the Oasis song that we’re all going to have to suffer for a few weeks whilst those brothers top up their retirement fund.

I suppose this did give me a little interest in the game… oh wait its still £50 nevermind 🙃

Half a competency porn film, half just Kevin Costner being a bully and loving it. And yeah, I kinda liked watching it too.

Musicals have an uphill climb with me. This was… weird. Would’ve probably given up if it wasn’t for pretty committed performances from the top billing.

The sort of film you should hope never becomes too relevant to society.

It is nice to see Moses Ingram on screen again, the lark she got from Star Wars was atrocious.

Seminal Tim Burton, this was a height I don’t think his other good films reach.

P.S. I am loving walking down to my screen and hearing Eric Prydz and The Road to Dublin just blasting from behind screen doors.

Same day double dip, film so nice I had to see it twice.

Never stop throwing Cosmo Jarvis into danger, it produces the best shit for screens.

Very relaxed, I recommend watching this with a hangover, it will help.

I don’t know how to review short film. This was curious and nothing wrong with it so it gets more than half points, couldn’t see anything that made me think its a standout.

ladies in STEM though.

So…

1. Incredible, just incredible. It’s not just the sound it’s everything in this film. Performances, script, SFX. The lot.

2. I don’t think the ‘propaganda’ criticism is valid. What does this film glorify? Of course, OF COURSE the reasoning for the Iraq war was a crock of shit but we have to seperate the motives of rich bastards from the actions of working men, who just so happen to be soldiers. They saved their friends, they were heroic in doing so.

Just like with Civil War - there was no military recruitment ad before this film. The army themselves went ‘no this doesn’t make our job look good’.

Spectacular, really every bit the standout that everyone is saying it is. Not worth IMAX for the visuals much but I’m glad I did it for the sound.

Is it wrong I feel just a smidge bad that heavy metal and Irish folk music were the heralds of evil in this? Those are my deep running tunes, I feel defensive.

Mom hadn’t seen it so Dad put it on and then they both fell asleep before the end 🤷🏻‍♂️

Is it too basic to just say this is Mean Girls for blokes?

“Cinema is proof of existance”

Unpredictably brilliant. I am thrilled to know there are kindred spirits in the world who want to collect obscure DVDs and bother other people with them.

I ❤️ you boutique bluray companies, vinegar syndrome and anyone who burns dvdr’s for mates that just need to see that movie.

So obviously made by a dude. It doesn’t make it insincere but… yeah. Makes me want to raid the American section of the supermarket.

Mastery in all scenes, Vincent Cassel just dropping into my life every few years to remind me he’s one of the best. This soundtrack will be savoured.

Like a private tour through a gallery, I really enjoyed this. Margy takes you from one exhibtion to another for a one-on-one with the artist and her work. It threads together raw s of history and very accessible philosophy.

I really couldn’t pick a favourite segment. Kinda wild to look at Lee Miller and not feature her bathtub photo though.

I didn’t really want to go and see this, but I was interested in seeing what the craze with a penguin in the film is. There’s Mr Poppers Penguins before this, there’s whole franchises about surfing penguins and dancing penguins - people like penguins.

I’m not one of these people. A few good lines but this is for a Sunday when watching an aimless film is acceptable.

Side note; I am really curious to see if Katy Perry’s songs become darker after they shot her into space today. It nearly broke William Shatner, I sense a goth phase coming…

I mean, I was a teenage music journalist and this never happened to me.

Nearly 5 stars, but the young man kisses a girl who cannot consent and that ruins a film.

Edit: should also recognise that he’s very much a victim too.

Rami Malek brings it again, totally engrossed with this very thoughtful take on a spy film. I’m seeing comparisons with Black Bag but this is on another level, although the couple in that film were more of a goal tbh.

So if I’ve really liked this I should be watching Mr Robot?
