Brilliantly written film, humour just so hits my sweet spot. Think I bought this cheap on dvd from a bargain store, well worth the £1.
I took my son to watch Midway before it finished showing at the local Cinema a few weeks ago. I thoroughly enjoyed it, almost as good as Hackshaw Ridge I didn't like Dunkirk, the chronology was all over the place with flashbacks and forwards, several stories combining into one....nope Midway, seemed factual enough, plenty of action and good story with decent special effects
Watched 6 underground on Satdi neet, it was ok, and watched the remake of True Grit, wi Jeff Bridges, last neet. That was ok too.
I enjoyed the True Grit remake, just watched El Camino, the breaking bad movie... yeah, but more of the usual... a little predictable compared to the series, but enjoyable all the same
Just about to watch the last episode. Think it has been brilliant, and Jeremy Irons has been fantastic. I kicked him once
And Brian Cant was a dude of his time... this is his performance which is on Orbital’s interactive dvd “The Altogether” which is also a pretty cool purchase to own! It may not be Metallica or a Radar performance... but they wanted an old school kids presenter performance
Watched "Rush" on DVD the other evening, the story of the rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda, a great insight into both of them and to F1 of the era, well worth a watch.
Went to see 'Le Mans 66' last week end enjoyable watch but not sure how much it veered from the truth but hey it made a good story!!
Star Wars - The Rise of Skywalker. As might be expected a tour de force (pun very much intended!) for almost seamless digital effects but, in terms of a "story" - PAH! Who needs a story? You just need a good looking bird with a seemingly permanently affixed "determined grin through iron locked jaws and teeth" and who grunts a lot, to romp tirelessly through battlefields, fights and emotionally wrenching reveals to ermmmmm ..... 'entertain'? Yeah, right. I'm a huge Star Wars fan but the jumps through time and space and the intricate weaving of backstory relationships is way too complicated for a simpleton like me. Add a massively overpowered soundtrack and some ridiculous dialogue and it all becomes a bit too much of a mess to be wholly enjoyable. I'm rather looking forward to what looks like it will be a much simpler story from within the wider SW 'canon' - The Mandalorian but it looks lke this might be restricted to a subscription channel. Looks good, though.
The Accident Man. Struggling to tell if it was a comedy. About a hitman who specialises in 'accidents'. Lots of choppy slocky, much death, and a Triumph to boot. Still think it was a comedy.
