    I've just watched 'A Million Little Pieces'.
    I couldn't help imagining myself in that place with other Lifers, desperately helping each other get off this site.

    Yep another thumbs up for top gun 2, much better than the first one, a nod to the past but not too much gushy stuff, flight scenes were unreal, best plane movie I’ve seen.

    I know the reviews are good but I thought it was one of the worst films I’ve ever seen - corny in the extreme, often ridiculous, ‘humour’ forced and absolutely none of the charm of the first one. Cynical money spinner IMHO.

    Cinema should sometimes just be pure fun
    And that's what Maverick is, in my humble opinion

    Agreed, especially the second half. Went to an very comfortable de lux screen showcase and had (their) popcorn and (our) ice cream and cider and had a great time!

    Have just watched 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent' - Nicolas Cage's new offering.

    Considering some of the stinkers he's recently been in, it's actually a relatively decent and funny film.

    Fr Stu with Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson is a rattling good yarn. Actually a true story. Tragic, funny, wise and well shot. Well worth a go.

    Just seen the Top gun film, great flying shots but the rest was pretty predictable 6/10

    Watched the new Jurassic World film today.

    Still has nothing on the originals - Film and TV really does appear to be going down the nostalgia route at the moment, was great seeing the original cast back involved... Nice that they've not gone down the fake dinosaur / monster act with this film, compared with the other two sequels.

    Yeah it wasn't bad but it wasn't that good either. The dinosaur scenes were good but way too many boring human characters honestly.

    Liked Hustle, the new Adam Sandler film. He’s great in these more serious roles.

    Much more importantly why have they used a different dude for Buzz’s voice?

    Tim Allen is a Republican so I'm guessing Disney severed all ties.

    Apparently its becasue this isnt a "Toy Story" film as such. This is about the character, Buzz Lightyear, that the toy (Tim Allen) is made of. 

    Buzz Lightyear toy - Tim Allen 
    Buzz lightyear (in uninverse cartoon character) - Chris Evans 



    Plus Chris Evans probably still has a few years left to serve in Disney contract prison

    Jurassic World Dominion is fucking awful. I nearly walked out several times out of sheer boredom, and honestly I don't know why I didn't. I wish I had. 

    It is the pinnacle of cynical Hollywood filmmaking. It's a nonsense script with bugger all to say. A slapdash plot. No subtext or character development. It has nothing to offer. No sense of tone. There's no dread. No peril. There is barely any reason for the plot to happen. It's fucking awful. The exposition sequences are cringe-inducingly bad. The action sequences are dull (they don't have the balls to kill anyone off, so every single time a character is in danger they manage to outrun a keystone cops dinosaur. Every. Single. Time). Also the effects are ropey as fuck at times. 

    It's just yet another nostalgia trip where plot beats and actors from a movie made 30 years ago are dredged up so you can say "oh hey that's from that other movie!". The Force Awakens has a LOT to answer for in regards to what it has done to Hollywood. 

    It's fucking awful and I hope it flops and they never touch the franchise again. Fuck it made me angry. Fucking awful. Fuck off.

    P.S. Top Gun Maverick is fucking great. Shows that nostalgia trips can be fun if handled correctly. It's just very rare for that to happen. Fortunately TGM has more in common with Trainspotting 2 than The Force Awakens.

    Very good - especially as it was a first film from this director. Understated, unsettling and moving, with an excellent performance from the young lead.

    There's a quite interesting interview with the director on The Garden Cinema website - https://thegardencinemafilmtalk.podbean.com/e/film-talk-with-colm-bairead/
