Members bolty58 Posted March 12, 2023 Members Share Posted March 12, 2023 Watched Luther: The Fallen Sun last night. A bit far fetched in places but, as an unabashed fan of Idris Elba, enjoyed it. Andy Serkis plays a cracking baddie. 7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you enjoyed the claustrophobic and hopelessness atmosphere of The Descent (2005) then I reckon you'll enjoy the vertigo and same hopelessness of Fall. Similar cast and storyline. A loss of someone close has our main character languishing in mourning for a year. Her best friend persuades her to get back on to the free climbing horse and climb a very tall transmitter mast in the middle of a desert. A couple of things made me mark this film down. One was that a active transmitter mast would not be left to be in such a unkept state (yes, I know it's a fussy gripe but my H&S side kicked in). The other was the feet's of exceptional superhuman strength that our main characters possessed. But some of this was somewhat explained later on. The ending was a tad disappointing too. Take away my minor criticism and you have a tense ride for the majority of the film. Watched it last night, seen worse films, 6/10 plus another 1 for the cleavages and fine arse on the dark haired girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not in Crawley Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Went to the pictures to watch What's Love Got To Do With It?

Down to a single afternoon showing this week already at our Cineworld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all, but in general aye. Too many all made around choreographed violence, guns etc. Quite enjoyed the water diviner recently- some violence, but done in a minimalist way and only appertaining to history. Not a new film, but fairly recent. I'd also add that it's perhaps a feature of getting older that films are too often seen as rather dull.

Not in Crawley Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Love Everything, Everywhere. Watched it a few times now as you need to to get everything. A family story wrapped with brilliant creativity, humour with some great performances really glad it won best picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potential for closed shop mutual masturbating sessions. Just thought it was slightly over the top in its off the wall portrayal of a woman struggling to manage life, love and business. Prefer a gritty, British approach myself. But hey ho, the lovies will love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A family story wrapped with brilliant creativity, humour with some great performances really glad it won best picture. Watched it tonight and can see why it got gongs. Allegorical sci fi isn't my usual bag but I enjoyed it - humour throughout and the Hollywood ending wasn't too gooey. Decent entertainment and it was good rather than great IMO - but TBF the overarching concept is a difficult one to capture in a movie (it took them 12? years) whereas if it was a book everyone could visualise their own screenplay and so might have been more satisfying - but it wasn't a book so there was nothing to be disappointed about. (Some great books in a similar genre make crap films e.g. The Illustrated Man or The Magus) Different story, different genre, Chinese rather than Korean I know but there were undertones of the first Academy Award Asian cast film, Parasite. Definitely worth watching both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
