The Movie Thread

Reptile on Netflix, just exquisite so so good.

Knock at the cabin. Usual Shyamalan oddity. The time went fast. But walked away feeling time wasted. Should have smoked a cigar instead.

Going to see Oppenheimer in next couple of weeks. Hope they’ve not ruined the actual events with Hollywood lies.

I fell asleep to JW4! I loved the first one but there were definitely diminishing returns with the sequels....

JW4 was much better than JW3 imho.
Some of the camera work was very innovative (I'm thinking the derelict building / dragon's breath shotguns).
All round very enjoyable and glad I went to the cinema to watch it.
I really hope that's the end of JW though.
Not because I don't like the franchise, I do. I just don't want them to jump the shark.

Just watched it. It was drawn out and repetitive, hope that is the end of what started out as a great movie.

apologies if this is a duplicate. BUT ... John Wick 4... for many dull and repetitive. For me... just ongoing excellent distracting cartoon violence and fair play

The mountain between us.

Was sold to me as a survival story. Again, fiction. I was duped by the wife. It's just a dull strung out romantic fantasy. Never trusting her again. Waste of time.

The covenant. It needed to be a true story. Otherwise, great cinematography and great landscapes! I know it's based on real things, but not real events. Should have been a short not a 2 hour movie. Otherwise a great looking (great audio too) OK war themed chase movie. 5/10.

I take it you didn't enjoy it then 😉

Indeed, but it wa s achoice between Indie or Barbie & I guessed iI would have hated that more! So MLW is going see that with our daughter this weekend. Phew!

Spoiler alert

Small one, can't imagine any fan was expecting Indie to die.

Wife dragged me to see Indie 5, having had to watch the other 4 during the week, as I had avoided them until then. Perhaps because they influenced my daughter to do such a useless degree? Anyway, please tell me, I am not the only one who thought it was total rubbish & just a spend fest on the effects. Apparently they need to sell 2.5x over the cost of the film to break even, never gonna happen IMHO. Oh, & anyone shot just above the heart, isn't going to survive being manhandled out of caves & all the rest!

If you've got Prime you might like to try 'Zulu' starring Forest Whittaker and Orlando Bloom as detectives investigating a murder in South Africa. It's quite brutal in places.
