Last Film You Saw

[Blue Maverick]

Superman The Christopher Reeve story, very moving and such a shame , seemed a thoroughly decent bloke. 6.5/10

 

[mexico1970]

Armageddon with Bruce Willis and a star cast, 9/10 great yarn.

Summer Hours (2008)

After their mother's death, three siblings must decide what to do with the family summer house and its valuable contents. This subtle French drama from writer-director Olivier Assayas is light on plot but rich in conversation and themes--among the latter, the effects of globalization on families, and the relationship between life and art/valuables. I suppose some people will find the movie a big nothingburger, but I loved it. Charles Berling, Jérémie Renier and a blonde Juliette Binoche play the siblings.

Been watching some older Denzel movies;
The Book of Eli - (8/10). Not going to say much about this, its set in a post apocalyptic world where a lone traveller has a sacred book. Gary Oldman plays the bad guy so what's not to like.
Man on Fire - (9/10). Vengeance movie, or should I say how a vengeance movie should be made. Also has Christopher Walken in it and a great turn by a young Dakota Fanning.
Fallen - (8/10). Detective investigates murders that seem to be the same even after the perp has been executed. Uses Time is on my side by the Stones which is a great track

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Laid up after meniscus repair so I'll probably plough through a few films.

Started yesterday with Wrong Turn. Mindless gore and violence. Easy watch. Will make my way through the other five over the next few days.

Good horror fantasy - Warlock (1989). A bulked up butch Richard E Grant, with animal skins and hair extensions, as a 17th century witchfinder and Julian Sands as the evil warlock. A fast moving chase story recording the hunt for the Grand Grimoire (the devil's bible) which will reverse all creation to date (who gets these ideas?). Reasonable special effects for the time. Well worth a view.

Very sad ending for Julian Sands in real life.

Armageddon with Bruce Willis and a star cast, 9/10 great yarn.

An all time action classic, that Simpson/Bruckheimer era is unparalleled.

I wish they’d do a 4k Dolby Atmos upgrade for this fantastic big blockbuster

I can't stand that movie, nearly as bad as Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman, But differences are what makes the world go around!

Almost as many wrong turns as the rags

We can agree on Van Helsing. That was terrible.

The Voyeurs

Semi erotic movie, not great but the bonus is the extremely fit Sydney Sweeney gets her kit off.

For that 9/10

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Maxxxine. Shit. Was surprised how bad it was, considering all the names in it! Must have been an easy earner for a mate. Didn’t look to see whose film it was. Some T & A, but dire ‘85 period piece.

Eyes Wide Shut

One of Kubrick’s best works. It’s a shame we never got to see the missing footage.
