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.

He must have something on some big cheeses in the film industry. He's woeful.

You suggesting he shagged Harvey Weinstein?

Watched The Gentlemen the other night.

Quite enjoyed it, but FFS, how does him out of Sons of Anarchy keep getting big roles? His accent was as bad as it was in Green Street. I couldn't work out if he was supposed to be American, Irish, Welsh or Geordie.

I’d like to hear his actual accent. Everything I’ve seen him in he’s got a bad accent and is a poor actor 

I did wonder that when I watched it. Turns out he’s a Geordie so he was speaking his natural accent, though I don’t know whether that was intended. His accent in Green St is horrific. 

Zootopia

As far as Disney goes it's as good as I've seen, and I've seen a lot of late

Ace story line, humour and visuals

Im watching it in full one night when they've both gone to bed

He’s British??? That makes his cockney accent even worse

Have to agree, it’s brilliant I don’t think Disney compete with Pixar but that is right up there

Kinell, he can't even pull off an accent from where he's from then. There were definite twangs of Irish and Welsh.

On Disney

Ratatouille is one of my favourite films. It's brilliant.

 

The sloth scene in Zootopia is very funny.

Frustrates the life out of our Maude hence why I love it 

Not sure if it’s already been mentioned but I watched For Sama last night. Very powerful viewing 

Just seen an advert for The Darkest Hour. If you haven’t seen give it a watch Gary Oldman is an incredible actor

innocent lies, trending number 2 on netflix, don't fucking bother 

Watched Military Wives and The Way Back last night.

Both good but if you only had time to watch one I would recommend the former.

Wolf of Wall Street last night. Superb.

How will you manage your job between your WW postings???

Posted tits is a bigger priority 

Episode 9 onwards of Money Heist on Netflix.  Wifey and I had an eight episode binge yesterday.  Once you get over the fact it was made in Spanish and dubbed into English it's quite gripping.

6 to watch to complete episode 1 then 3 further episodes.

Watched that thing with Khaleesi and a bloke in a wheelchair the other night because the wife had it on, way it was done I didn't know whether to laugh, cry, or crack one off. 

Triple Frontier a heist action movie on Netflix, it has Ben Affleck and the Sons of Anarchy guy with the aforementioned accent issues. It's a solid 6/10.  Some very good action sequences, it's tense throughout, but nothing you've probably not seen before.

Could this be the new trifecta?

I went through an action movie binge a couple of nights ago. I watched Braven which is a Jason momma vehicle and it was pretty good. Nothing very new, but well done, good scenery, some exciting action and he is a likeable protagonist. 

I also watched mile mile twenty two with mark wahlberg, very twisty, mindless violence even more mindless plot. It passed the time, there was one excellent fight but I found the editing style annoying and it's one for the pure action junkies I reckon.

latest movie I saw was miss Sloane. Jessica chastain is very good. Strong supporting cast, some good dialogue. I enjoyed it, not a classic but if you like political thrillers it's decent.

The Platform on Netflix was fucked up but really good

Started using this new thing called Net Flix last week.

Watched

Brian Banks - decent

Shock And Awe - meh

The Gentlemen - meh

Hunter Killer - meh

The Last Dance - excellent 

Kajaki - very good

Friday Night Lights - meh

Fyre Festival  - switched off after 5 mins 

6 Days - alright

Moneyball - good

 

End.
