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.

BlackKklansman

about a undercover black cop who helps infiltrate the KKK

alright

7/10

Looking forwards to this! Might even drag my non-believing mrs along with me.

Finally got around to watching this last night (dodgy download). Bit disappointed. 7/10. Could've been better, but understand where the director was coming from.

any of the fellow geeks on here see the avengers trailer?

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.

Is that the one where the two blokes play themselves? 999 reconstruction on speed.

Took t’lad watching Wreck It Ralph the other day. Actual quite watchable with a subtle nod to our over reliance on the internet, social media trolling etc and god knows how many pop culture references  

Didn't spot Cheese there fwiw.

Of course. 

Tbf didn't get me excited for the film, until Paul Rudd showed up.

Yeah, the guys play themselves. Iirc correctly, one wrote his book and the film follows that.

Seen it loads of time but the big short was on BBC 2 tonight, if you haven’t watch it - or read the book, both fantastic

Are you from Timperley?

I'll try to say this in the least camp voice I can, but there's some worrying set photos and plot rumours coming out of Top Gun 2.

Maverick and Goose's son stealing a long retired F-14 to fly on a rogue mission... Please don't be true.

Dunno what gave you that impression 

Watched eye in the sky last night.

Very thought provoking; lots of moral dilemmas.

Really enjoyed that, watched it at the cinema which it really didn't suit to be honest but definitely worth seeing

Can see your point there. Not massive amounts of action, and what there was highlighted the horror of it all.

Refreshing change to normalisation of killing and choreographed shooting.

Probably a typo , but can't tell nowadays. 

sounds like independence day mixed with its sequel. partly anyway.. 

in the first one (top gun) i never got what were going on (were the bad guys soviets or koreans ? , an airforce classroom ? ) The Last Starfighter made more sense.

Nah you read it right my cryptic friend.

Just realised you might have meant maverick along with the son of goose

Hahaha yeah it's not going to be that controversial. I hope anyway.

Bird box with Sandra bollock. Walking dead / Lost feel about it, decent film.

 

edit: box not cage

Watched The White Helmets on Netflix. a documentary about the war in Syria, who would have thought the Russians were bombing civilians and hospitals. Grim viewing, but worth watching.

 

Mamma Mia 2

Paddington 2, tonight

Mollys game. Superb
