Bit random but just watched Adventures Of A Plumber's Mate on Prime. I know they were just an excuse to show a bit of fanny but how they passed as comedy even back then is unbelievable.

Are they similar to the 'Confessions' films with Robin Askwith?

Standard Neeson then?

[bolton_blondie]

Have to agree with the suicide squad film. Its on in the background whilst I fuck about on my phone and what I can see of it, it's shite. 

[burnden]

Gonna give Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised) a whirl next

Two shit films save you waisting you time 

The Birthday Cake 

Shadow in the Cloud 

both 1/10

[Smiley]

Sound of Metal. Dark. Riz Ahmed is good.

Watched a Disney animation recently with the Mrs called Soul. 
Not as iconic as something like Shrek but in terms of the “message” of the film, quite grown up.

Similar message to into the wild or American beauty.

Solid 7.5/10

[deane koontz]

The Hateful Eight turned it off part way through, horse shit.

[Youri McAnespie]

I agree, it was poo.

Kurt Russell channeling shitbag John Wayne.

Michael Madsen is rubbish, apart from his fluke Mr. Blonde.

Yeah, overlong biz.

Don't Breathe - mediocre 5/10

Still not his worst film though, that honour has to go to Death Proof

[Mannyroader]

The Good Liar with Ian McKellan and Helen Mirren. Top drawer stuff especially from the Bolton School old boy as an ageing conman.

Get out both of you. It’s only shit by Tarantinos standard but the bar is so high otherwise it’s a great film

And death proof is a fuckin brilliant grind house B movie fit birds, a killer, great car chases 

What more do you want you buncha queers 

Ill back QT to the hill, I’d rather watch death proof than any dog wank Christopher Nolan has spaffed half a billion on

Yeah it might look great Chris but what the fuck is going on

[Youri McAnespie]

As I've got older I've realised QT is a bit covers band-y.

Hateful Eight is just above the piss-poor Kill Bill films, and Death-Proof.

They're a rarity (Kill Bill's) in that I've turned them off...

And this is from someone who's sat through 'Dead Man's Shoes' in its entirety.

Nah 

I rate his other stuff generally highly with Kill Bill top of the list 

That said have not seen Death Proof 

Agree about Nolan, except for Batman Begins

[DazBob]

The Kill Bill films are ace.

As is Death Proof.

Sometimes you just have to enjoy a film for what it is without comparing to what you expected it to be.

[MancWanderer]

Airplane last night. So shit but rolled around laughing  Close Encounters tonight

[Youri McAnespie]

The Old Man and The Gun.

Robert Redford's swansong...

Meh  7/10.

He's not brown bread he retired.

Don't give this chump a statue, give him guts...

I can only recall; Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Castle, sommat where he plays a frontiersman and The Sting...

In Stephen Fry's frankly shite autobiography, where he romances cocaine, he details how he met a collaborator of Redford's and asked what he was like...

The bloke questioned said "what would you be like if no-one had said 'no' to you for fifty years?"

[Rudy]

Can’t wait for this

Kill Bills are superb.

If watching Uma Thurman get a beating then wrestling with Kim Basinger doesn't make your balls fizz, you are dead.

[Youri McAnespie]

Kim Basinger's in it?

I missed that.

Y'mean Darryl Hannah?

I'm not much of a fan of actual martial art films, so some knowing pastiche/homage even less so...

Darryl Hannah. Same thing. Tall blonde that was present in my early wanking days.

Bottom lion, Uma Thurman. Yes.
