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.

Jordan Peele - talented bloke. He's rebooted Candyman - the trailer came out today - which is exciting as I absolutely loved them first time round.

I didn't get the big hype with Get Out, not shit, just not that good

A film that's of a slightly similar theme is Skeleton Key which is far darker and better, imo

Though it only gets 6.5 on IMDb whilst get out is 7.7

Get out reminds me of The Shining with the suspense and music. It makes me feel on edge and creeped out the entire time. From the dad and the brother to the people who work there. My kind of horror.

Enjoy mate, it's a good un 👍

Greed. 7/10, had its funny moments and I suppose the lead character (who is exactly how I’d expect Steve Coogan to be in real life if he had a bit more cash) had to get his comeuppance in the end. 

The new Harley Quinn one is out, if you know where to look, and is alright for a bit of a brainless watch.

Also out is the Sonic the Hedgehog movie which is surprisingly entertaining. Jim Carrey absolutely dominates.

Tried to watch the Irishman. Just couldn't get in to it. I was in it for just over 2 hours before I turned it off. Might give it another go when I've got a day to kill.

Railway man- a great story of inhumanity and humanity.

93 days. Seemed appropriate.

Star Wars Rise of Skywalker is out in the usual places

Outbreak.

The Road.

Cannibal Holocaust.

28 Days Later.

I Am Legend.

My Dinner With Andre.

The Tin Drum.

 

The postcard killers. - very good 8/10 I would say 

given we’ve nae sport for fuck knows how Long I think this thread should start to take more of an active role to give us all summat to watch!!

I watched a quiet place last night. 2nd time I’ve seen it. I really liked it and found it very clever

It looks good but don’t just think I was in the mood for it.

Very good film. Plus Emily Blunt is stunningly beautiful IMO.

I'm looking forward to eventually watching the sequel.

Don’t think I’ve seen that. To me he doesn’t pick bad films.
