Watched this last night. Not bad, but not great either. Love Hugh Grant doing these types of roles though.Heretic with Hugh Grant, he plays the villain extremely well and it's an interesting horror with a bit of a twist.

Starman, on Film 4 now. Great film. Hard to think it came out. Hard to think it's 40 years since it came out. Brilliant main theme, as well.....

Just watched this. Beautifully crafted, very Gothic 7.5/10Nosferatu. 7/10
Really do love Robert Eggers and think he has a masterpiece in him, but this isn’t it. It’s beautifully shot but it’s lacking in places and has a tendency to over explain.
Willam Dafoe turns in a great performance, Bill Skarsgård is once again a brilliant villain but my god Lily-Rose Depp does her best to ruin the whole thing by totally over acting throughout, found myself laughing as she groaned and convulsed her way through nigh on every scene.
Still, enjoyed an afternoon out at the cinema. Next up will be ‘Bird’.
How was gladiator 2 for you.

A sad, miserable fucker, whose wife is bagging out of watch, is mistaken for a hitman.
Good film. Nicely paced, and with some humour. Enjoyed it. No big names, but well acted.

Wicked - Part 1. 9/10. Problem might be all the best songs are in the first half (as with most musicals). But thoroughly enjoyed it. Ariana grande is great (although I'm probably biased after the way she continues to support Manchester)

We never got chance mate due to our Wi-Fi acting the pan. It's definitely on for tonight and very much looking forward to it. I would put Gladiator down as being in my top five films of all time. Right from the very off, you just knew you were in got a treat as Maximus and his legion engaged that Germanic horde at the Battle Of Vindabona.
"Three weeks from now, I will be harvesting my crops. Imagine where you will be, and it will be so. Hold the line! Stay with me! If you find yourself alone, riding in green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled, for you are in Elysium and you're already dead! What We Do In Life Echoes In Eternity"
Every part of this film was a masterpiece in the making, coated over in goodness by the Hans Zimmer soundtrack.
