Saw it last month loved it ,ps The original is on YouTube well worth a watch,

Thanks mate, I watched the old one last night, it's very good but I prefer the new one. Even if I do think the new one one is about 15 minutes too long.

Old Henry - Really enjoyed it, a proper Western.

Devil all the time - watched this on Netflix at the weekend. Good list of actors who all did a great job, even Tom Holland's deep south accent was good. But the character development was really poor IMO, you don't really feel anything for any of the characters. Things are just happening by them and to them, but no real explanations for anything. It's an exploration of religious values and how trauma can pass through generations of families, but i feel like it doesn't really explore the anything other than giving you information. 6/10 for the acting, and some decent scenes.

I went to see Belfast last night, in a great wee old cinema in East Belfast...and to be honest, i thought it was shite, schmaltzy and apologetic.


Did you also have the piece from Kenneth Branagh at the start? The fact he had to explain the film just added to the sense that Branagh is playing the "woe is me, look what i had to escape" bollocks....in addition to the "for those who stayed, for those who left" dedication at the end...it comes across that he is trying to portray some sort of trauma from the troubles.....you and your family fucked off mate, leaving your grannie behind.....you didnt experience the troubles.

There is literally no story....the troubles are starting, should we leave the country? yes/no, ok lets leave.

It touches on the fact that in many streets, people happily lived side-by-side...but no explanation as to how and why things became worse. And Judi Dench's "Belfast" accent was straight out of Dublin!

How this film has 7 Oscar nominations i do not know. To me it felt like an extended Tourism NI advert.....with dozens of stereotypical colloquialisms thrown in for good measure.

For it to be the story of a young boy from Belfast, it comes across as film directed by someone who only came here once to visit his long abandoned grandmother and is trying to absolve himself of guilt

Oh, and Van Morrison can feck off too :-)

I cannot understand the oscars these days. I have seen four of the heavily nominated films, Coda, The Power of the Dog, The lost daughter and Don't look up. Two were very bad (TPOTD and TLD) one was ok but hardly what I would call oscar material (don't look up). Only Coda worked for me and it is probably the least fancied. If these are best then bloody hell there must be some absolute shite out there.
Having said that I am looking forward to Dune.
