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.

You're losing the plot son. You need some medication.

I think he was making a joke on the binary nature of the internet which seems to have pervaded into every debate or discussion that has ever existed.

Been recommended "Parasite" it's a Korean film. Anybody seen it?

I think City Of God was the last film with subtitles I watched.

Not seen it yet but Korean entertainment makes the Japanese seem sensible folk.

Aye, got told that it was their "film of the year". I'm gonna give it a whirl although I could be being had here 

If it was a horror I’d buy into it, the fact it’s a Korean comedy leaves me sceptical 

Haven't seen it myself but Bong Joon-Ho's films are usually spot on

I love my Japanese stuff but am fully aware that it is definitely not everyone's cup of tea.

Just watched "The report".

Looking at the investigation into the CIA and its use of torture post 9-11.

As usual, treating it on face value, it shows the fucked up world of politics, security etc. Enjoyed it, but not one of you've had a drink and just want some easy to follow fun.

Black and blue

very enjoyable 

Joker.

Absolutely superb. Joaquin Phoenix take a bow son.

The Gentlemen

Enjoyed it. Hugh Grant plays a cracking part.

Watched it last night, totally agree, the man deserves an Oscar. 

Just watched "89" that documentary about Arsenal winning the league at Anfield. Amazing finish. The way everything looked and sounded feels like a totally different world, pre hype!

Field of dreams

Couldn't turn it off

Watched Ford v Ferrari last night. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Meant to mention - once you get past the Brummie accents and Villa shirt.

Me. If you can get to see it, do. Best movie of the year by a mile. I saw it with both Thai and English subtitles so was a bit wary beforehand but it was no bother.

Saw a great documentary on that, and then one of the chaps off top gear did a segment about it.

Thoroughly entertaining time in motor sport. 
I’ll give the film a watch this week.

Jojo Rabbit 7/10

Just about strikes the right balance of being a dark comedy without making it too light given it is set in the war, and from the German point of view at that, albeit with an anti-Nazi slant. Quite warming by the end as well.

I'll have to give The Irishman another shot further down the line. It was late and I got up to the fight at the grocery shop - It looked fookin terrible 

 

Is the film filled with that type of shit?
