Last Film You Saw

[MCFC1993]

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) - 7/10

Probably one of the higher scores you'll see but mainly because it's my genre of movie.

It's fun and a bit absurd, much like the originals. It's a long film, over 2 and half hours but I didn't feel it, I enjoyed it. The potential of de-aging technology was shown, again not perfect, the voice didn't match properly but the potential is there. Didn't like Phoebe Waller-Bridge in it at all, the film needed much less of her. Not as good as the Last Crusade or Raiders but at the end of the day you get to go on an adventure with Indiana Jones.

From the reviews I've read I think I'd rather go on an adventure with Jim Jones

Run Rabbit Run with the woman who played the daughter in Succession

Absolute shite

Turned it off after 20 minutes!

Black 47,dark,harrowing but brilliant.

Watched it a couple of years ago. Agree it’s a good film.

The Pope's Exorcist. Recommend if you're partial to a bit of exorcism. Russell Crowe's in it.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

I like Phoebe Waller-Bridge but my goodness her character was absolutely terrible. She was literally pointless yet a lead character. Mads Mikkelson plays a good role as always.

6.5/10

I watched Mads in Arctic the other night, he's very good in that.

Yeah that's a really good film.

The Northman. 6/10. The weakest of Robert Egger's 3 films, but still enjoyable. Prefered Valhalla Rising.

Haha, Valhalla Rising - one of my choices for worst film ever. Would be a shoe-in if it weren't for the brutality of the opening 3 mins.
I lived in hope for the rest of it, sadly it was for me, awasted journey.

Each to their own, I guess.

Don't Look Up (Adam McKay, 2021) - 8/10. I really enjoyed this, and it was far more silly than i anticipated, i think i had a bit of a different film in my head. Anyway, good summary of some of the problems in society today with regards political greed, willful ignorance and so on.

The King (David Michod, 2019) - 7.5/10. A decent attempt at adapting some of Shakespeare's Henry plays, with regards the succession of Henry V and his war in France. Popularised with big battle scenes and so on, I enjoyed this film quite a bit, worth a watch.

 

[Banshee]

Dune (2021)

Was one of those, sat down to eat, turned the TV on and it was just starting. Not the type of film I'd usually opt for. Three hours plus, with all the ads. Surprised myself that I stuck with it, must've been good.

 

[Bigg Bigg Blue]

Fast 10, just over 2 hours of enjoyable rubbish.
If you just want entertainment then watch this. 8/10

From the reviews I've read I think I'd rather go on an adventure with January Jones

Who wouldn't

 

[Nethermoor]

Scream 6.

I really enjoyed it. It's better than the last 4 sequels and has a different feel.

It's never going to win an Oscar etc, but if you like slashers it's probably the best one after the original.
