Last Film You Saw

[MCFC1993]

Holland. 5/10

Trying to catch up on the major streaming releases this year. Tense and nonsense all in one. The issue with this types of films is the reveal is always underwhelming.

You only had to watch the trailer to see all the best bits...the rest of it was shite.

Won’t bother then….

Shock and awe a film about Iraq and the lies about weapons of mass destruction which none were ever found 7/8 / 10

Monster Hunter. 2nd time I've watched it. I think once was enough

The Gorge (2025) - 6/10

Still catching up on a few films this year, started out great, 2 sharpshooters tasked with manning this gorge, bit of mystery, couple of decent characters. Final act just went to shit though.

Havoc the same as the working man don’t bother

Yep agree on both.
Unfortunately I was looking forward to both .
Might try and old classic .
Star wars or jaws

Locked.

Bill Skarsgard tries to steal anthony Hopkins car and gets locked in.

Was ok, but I must admit I was kinda on Hopkins side.

 

[Streetsweeper]

Havoc - a John Woo in his Hong Kong years throwback from the bloke that made The Raid. OK, but like Hard Boiled, it doesn’t make any sense.

Followed by the new 4k release of Peckinpah’s Cross of Iron, which is a film that gets better and better with age.

The Wall war film which is different 6/10

 

[better dead than red]

Watched Dunkirk with my family last Friday evening. My 13 year old daughter asked if we could watch it. She said her history teacher told her it was a good film.

We enjoyed it. Of course. I knew the story but hadn't ever seen it before.

The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970) directed by the great Billy Wilder. An affectionate take on the legend's last unreported case involving the Loch Ness monster, Queen Victoria, Trappist monks, teams of midgets and an espionage plot. Holmes' drug use and a gay subtext adds to the fun. Recommended.

The Penguin Lessons, thoroughly enjoyed, thoughtful & uplifting film….Steve Coogan

 

[Pancake Arse]

Just watched Thunderbolts.

Wasnt'impressed with it one bit, it's actually quite naff to be honest (in my opinion)

 

[Mayor West]

Green Book.

Thought it was OK when it first came out, the overhype always affects films like this.

Just rewatched it, what an absolutely brilliant film. 9/10

 

[Banshee]

Dark Waters

Based on true events. DuPont disposing harmful chemicals in the water. Causing cancers, killing livestock etc Mark Ruffalo as the dogged lawyer, very good.

Just seen a video on YT discussing a proposed reboot of Highlander, with Henry Cavill as Connor MacLeod...



Not sure how I feel about it, to be honest. The original is a bit "clunky"; compared to today's CGI/AI effects, the SFX in the Russell Mulcahy film are, let's be honest, amateurish. But that's what was around in the mid 80s, I guess. And although it's looking dated, it has a certain charm to it. And a cracking soundtrack!

I watched the films of highlander never watched the series so I'm up for a new reboot of it..
