Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

Operation finale with Ben Kingsley playing the nazi war criminal Adolf eichman, hiding out in Argentina after the war. Really good.

Aye, watched it myself yesterday. Could have been even better with a bigger budget and with some artist licence a bit more nervy and on the edge. But good all the same.

Not read up on the Nazi population in Argentina - did they carry on after his capture - still having meetings and aiming to oust the Jews from Buenos Aires?

Mr Calzaghe on iPlayer. Brilliant.

Just watched Searching

Edge of seat, best film I've seen in ages.

A Star Is Born. Wow. Really good. Incredible performance from Lady Gaga, it has to be said. 

22 July about that nazi fruitcake in Oslo who a few year back shot all those teens at a remote youth camp on a separate island. Could be wrapped up in 2 hrs but still worth a watch.

Mrs casino went

Came back raving about it

She didn't realise gaga was in it, but says she is really good

Watched Megan Leavey on Netflix the other night, worth watching for a Yank film.

It's easy to miss her when she's not wearing a dress made of bacon.

Dragged out but a decent watch. 

Believe another film is also due out soon about it. 

I wanted to see Bohemian Rhapsody tonight at the cinema, but they would not let me go.......

 

watched Gotti the other week

it's a decent enough watch if you are into gangster / mafia films

it wants to be Goodfellas, but it's not

7/10

Watched this last week, very interesting and a decent film and Kingsley was fantastic as Eichman. (I wont use Movie)

Looking forward to The Girl in The Spider's Web, the 4th in the series [Girl with the Dragon Tattoo etc] with Lisbeth Salander, stig Larsson died so somebody else has written this one

Not sure if it's being shown on the eleventh but if not it'll be very close

A film about the great war

Sounds definitely worth a watch

Think it's on bbc1 but currently on cinema release

In fact

It seems a must watch

I quite enjoyed it but, given I’m not really old enough to know any better, I would like to know if the rest of Queen really were so subservient to Freddie or is it a bit over egged in the film? Or I suppose did they just know their place without him?

watched bohemian rhapsody Friday, superb viewing 

Watched Calibre on Netflix last night, cracking film.

Outlaw King - Pretty much a follow on to braveheart, where I also wanted our mates north of hadrians wall twatted  Sorry jazza if you’re reading.

Watched 15:17 to Paris last night.

A Clint Eastwood film about the fellas that stopped a terrorist attack on a Paris bound train in 2015.

Nowt special in one way, but (if accurate) was more of a story of kids come good. Interesting and always good to see the terrorist get their just deserts.
