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.

Last christmas

Yeah, i know

But it backed up the holiday well

Great escape just starting. Lovely 

'Good luck'

'thankyou'

Schoolboy error.

I think Steve McQueen was shite.

"#Alive" on Netlfix. If you're into zombie films, it's a fucking belter. I would recommend watching it in Korean with subtitles, because the dubbed English is fucking terrible. If you're not into zombie films, you probably won't enjoy it either way.

Watched the newest Bond film No Time To Die last night, I'll give it 7/10

Watched Guy Richie's The Gentleman last night. Enjoyed it. Not as good as Snatch or Lock Stock but a lot better than some of the stuff he's pumped out recently.

Couldn't get in to RockNRolla. I've watched Revolver and can't remember a thing about it. I like Ritchie's 'cor blimey guv' and Jumping backward and forward style of film making. But sometimes the 'cor blimey' bit is laid on with a trowel. The Gentleman was only just on the right side of it.

Anything filmed in a foreign language should be watched with subtitles rather than dubbed English.

I'll go so far as to say anyone who watches in dubbed English is a fucking simpleton.

I agree completely. I only saw a minute or so of the dubbed version because Netflix defaulted to it, and it took me a minute or so to work out how to change it.

I’ll go one better

My mate watched a snide copy of inglorious basterds which didn’t have subtitles on it. He watch the whole thing. There’s some major scenes littered in German and he didn’t think anything of it.

I 100% agree. But I have not got the patience or the desire to read my films. I'm lazy.

The French Dispatch on IPTV 

Few scenes in French 

Except with Spanish subtitles

Had to switch it off, annoying as I was enjoying it, but feel like I'm missing out on something important 

Will probably end up actually paying for it now on Google play or something

 

Just finished Cosmos.

Excellent, and a must for all space dudes.

Carl Sagan series from the 80s? Or is there a new version.

Read the book few years ago - proper brain stomper! I even understood some of it.....

Just seen the sequal to Independence Day is on CH4 at half 7. It gets very poor reviews so, because I am bored shitless today, I am going to give it a go just for morbid curiosity.

Film from 2019.

Directed by two Weavers (brothers?)

Essentially no budget, and only 4 actors.

Starts a bit strangely, but really comes together.

A remarkable effort all things considered, and a worthy watch.

If that's in response to my recommendation, then you're way off.

Cracking film. Easily one of Depp's best.
