Sinners
Companion
Bring Her Back
Weapons
Together

Nosferatu and 28 Years Later were so-so.

I haven't seen Companion but will give it a go

Sinners was an 8 hour drag in my opinion

Bring Her Back had promise, it wasn't bad, but could have done a lot more with the plot

Weapons was complete ass, not a horror movie whatsoever, especially with the amount of people that say "you have to lean into the silliness" that defeats the whole purpose

Together was good, similar to Bring Her Back I would have liked a little more on the apparent cult aspect of the plot but definitely worth a watch.

The less said of Nosferatu and the Jimmy Savile mockumentary the better.

We will have to agree to disagree on Sinners.

I think in 20 years time (assuming we have a functioning civilization) that it will be regarded as one of the great horror films.

Fair enough! Different strokes for different folks after all
 
Watched two yesterday because The Dark Knight was on at the cinema and because of our rules on the film poster, we had to watch City of God before it.

City of God - excellent. A real complex story told so it's easy to follow. Some top performances and scary as fuck how people live in the poor parts of Brazil. 9/10.

The Dark Knight - I've never seen it before and love Joker. My lads have always been team Ledger over Phoenix but I saw Joker first. I stand by my ranking but Heath Ledger is truly amazing in the role. Really good film. The only minor criticism is a petty one - how do some of the people not cotton on to the fact that Bruce Wayne is the Batman? But I managed to get over it and told myself it's a comic book movie. 9/10.
 
Eddington

Saw this last week , the fourth film in the Aster filmography and if you're not aware, it is set in a fictional town in New Mexico during the early days of the pandemic in May 2020. It pits a well-meaning sheriff Joe Cross played by Joaquin Phoenix against the technocrat mayor Ted Garcia (Pedro Pascal) as the events of covid, BLM, George Floyd become focal points in the culture. In Aster's hands the story veers off into an absurd rumination of family, cults, conspiracies, head traumas, algorithms, AI, land claims, homelessness, the list goes on.

Good film.
 
Saw Dunkirk again last night on the big screen again.

Absolutely immersive and relentlessly tense.
 
The Stalking Moon
1968
Gregory Peck.

Superb western. Far superior in content and execution to generic, formulaic banal plot lines. The cast and acting and character insight are performed by artists at the pinnacle of their craft, which result in the culmination of an effort that will keep you engaged all the way though the experience, and especially at the conclusion. Unsung gem.

8/10
