Last Film You Saw

Wonka, very enjoyable and the kids enjoyed it as well. Much better than the Johnny Depp remake they did. 7/10

American Fiction - 9/10. Superb movie, equally funny and poignant.

American Fiction (2024) - 9/10

Excellent film. really well thought through film about stereotypes, race and validity of expression etc. Jeffrey Wright was really good.

Adventureland (2009) - 8/10

This was a surprisingly good film, i thought it was going to be a throwaway comedy thing but a really well made piece of Americana, with a great soundtrack. Proof, if it were needed, that you can make a high quality film with the simplest boy meets girl story with no CGI, mental twists or gore.

The Promised Land with Mads Mikkelsen, thoroughly enjoyed

The Bricklayer. Pure bag of dog piss.

Aaron Eckhart isn't made for this type of role.

Denzel Washington's character, Robert McCall would have struggled to save this abomination.

Too much pointing and not enough action?

Tried to watch the Beekeeper 2 nights ago and found it appalling, started off well and I lasted 20 minutes until I switched it off and put the Genie on starring the usually funny Melissa McCarthy, and it was a complete bust, unfunny tripe served up as entertainment there should be a law against producing drivel that bad.

John Statham is:

The Transporter
The Mechanic
The Wildcard
The Expendable
The Spy
The Beekeeper

Next up, John Statham is the Amazon Delivery Driver.

Saltburn - Way too many convenient plot lines to give it a shred of credibility, nothing is ever explained (why did he not get on with his parents, unless I missed something?) I could go on, but it would possibly spoil it for others - 4/10 purely for parts of the soundtrack and the setting.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Too much pointing and not enough action?

Mumbling too. He mumbles through it as if it gave him a bit of an edge or toughness. However, he just ended up sounding like a heavy-smoking Joe Biden.

The Zone of Interest review â Jonathan Glazerâs unforgettable Auschwitz drama is a brutal masterpiece

Only the constant pall of smoke, and a dread-inducing soundscape, tell of the horrors beyond the wall as the idyllic life of the commandant of the death camp and his family rolls by in Glazer’s Oscar-nominated film

Smile. Quite fun 7/10. Very similar to It Follows.
