The Lost Daughter - hated it. Two hours non-story about a neurotic woman. Escapism it's not.1

Watched it tonight with no expectations.Chunes said:Watched The Last Duel last night. Had high expectations with the director (Ridley Scott) and cast (Adam Driver & Matt Damon) but parts of it grated. It's the same story told from three different people's point of view, but the differences in the POVs are only subtle, so you end up replaying the same scenes three times and with only very subtle differences, and it's incredibly dull to watch the same scenes over and over again.
It does deal with some interesting themes and the performances are good.Enjoyed the triple viewpoints and a good film to watch.0 -
Wasn’t convinced I’d like this but it’s a good watch.bolloxbolder said:Guy Ritchies Wrath of Man, starring Jason Statham is now available on Prime. An entertaining watch, even if some of the scenes defy believe.0 -
Slightly too long but the cast saved it.Bournemouth Addick said:Another vote for Don't Look Up. My wife and me really enjoyed it.
I agree it was 20 minutes too long. It's a great cast with some very strong characters. Loved the Cate Blanchette pee take of all those horrendous day time talk show hosts (tbf I'm mildly in love with Cate Blanchett full stop). The Jonah Hill character got some great lines and Mark Rylance's weirdness was good fun. I wonder if Elon Musk has seen it?
I wasn't convinced by the whole Timotee Chalamet story at all though and they could easily have dropped that for me, but I suppose they wanted to drop in a hot, young actor for a different audience.0 -
Watched Man on a Ledge for the first time in ages … still a good film despite knowing the twists.0 -
Red notice on Netflix.
A good bit of fun and Ryan Reynolds character made me lol (proper out loud) several times 👍2 -
Caught Don't Look Up yesterday, and to be honest, it grated from beginning to end. There wasn't a sigle character I didn't find effortlessly irritating, from DiCaprio offering pointless science when all he needed to do was explain what the comet meant, to the talk show hostess, and the just numbing imbecility of everyone who had better things to do than deal with what was coming. I enjoyed the ending, but that simply turned the rest into an overlong shaggy dog story. I really wanted to like this more but when the characters are all annoying, that ain't gonna happen.

They most definitely were. Still doesn't change the fact that it was a big ol' bag-o-shite.Bedsaddick said:

I didn’t hate it . I thought Mark Rylance was great as was Meryl Streep but as usual it suffers because it’s half an hour too long and the novelty has long worn off by the time it got to the end .Big_Bad_World said:

I agree with this, expected alot. I really didn't get into it, i watched it today and just felt it had a good cast but the whole story was just a bit silly/ poor. also not a fan 4/10 from meken_shabby said:Caught Don't Look Up yesterday, and to be honest, it grated from beginning to end.

Caught this earlier this afternoon. Also thought it was terrific. Fantastic set pieces, brilliant sets and cinematography and the score is of course out of this world. One of those films you'd happily watch again quite quickly afterwards because there's so much going on you're bound to have missed something.se9addick said:Saw West Side Story last night. I’m not a huge musical fan, but I thought it was incredible. Assume it will do very well at the Oscars.1 -

I'm reserving judgement on that until I've seen both again but my wife was definitely of the same view as yourself.hoof_it_up_to_benty said:

I watched the original again the other day and it looks very wooden and stilted in comparison. The casting is better in the new version.Bournemouth Addick said:

The new Ghostbusters was pretty good. Plenty of nostalgia and decent acting from the kids.3

Watched ghost busters last night too, was surprised how good a watch it was and highly recommend people watch it !Not sure if anyone on here has it but Just recently purchased this IPTV subscription which somehow has 1000s of movies including ones just released in the cinema? will be spending my time watching all those. The Platform is run by a charlton fan, so has every channel in the world including all the football games and ifollow games on there for free too! So Crazy0

I was an enormous fan of the original film and how the director bought it into modern Times was very clever and it may be because I was at the beginning of covid I nearly fell to pieces with the ending!

Licorice Pizza - very much an American Graffiti vibe with personable leads and a great sense of style.0

Ok, so I have a personal interest in this one, so maybe slightly biased.
Redemption of a Rogue on Netflix now.
Our second cousin, Olivia Smith, was the casting coordinator on it.
Its an Irish, catholic, love story with all that goes with it in an awful town in Co Cavan (of which there are many).Slightly bonkers, with a decent soundtrack impo.
Enjoy 💚0
