John Wick 3 ... basically just one long fight scene and little to no story at all, found it really boring.

Spotted that X-Men: Dark Phoenix had popped up on Disney+, so gave it a try.

He's been a long time since I've seen a film that dull. It's truly terrible.

I started watching Gravity, it was on the beeb over the weekend and I had it on my sky+ box.

I stopped watching it cause I found Sandra Bullock's lead character insuferably panicky and irritating. If she had just done as George Clooney said all along they'd both be alive.

How did this film pass me by, and who have I pissed off to have caught it now ?

Never seen it before.

It's on All4 for a while yet.

Not quite sure what I make of it, but Ben Kingsley's character is excellently acted, you cunt!

Ford Vs Ferrari. Brilliant.

I watched a documentary a while ago so knew the story. But a pal told me to watch this film and glad I did. It concentrates on the characters and really works well :)

Watched first 2 series of Mayans MC on BBC iplayer. So impressed that I’ve bought the whole series of Sons of Anarchy on DVD. Looking forward to plenty of evening viewing ahead of us. :)

I watched this too last night, mainly due to the publicity it attracted when it was released last year, I struggled with the dialogue in parts, but was it better than I thought it was might be considering the writer/director and cast.
Definitely not a great film, and if anything I thought it glorified the gang violence, but I enjoyed the raps - it was worth a watch for me

Is it a documentary, like Peaky Blinders? ;)
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

An absolute classic that never seems to get shown on TV for some reason, totes banging flick
I'd never seen it so gave it a try. After 10 mins I hated it. Pushed to about 15 before nearly smashing the telly. I hate that style of film. Self indulgent production.

Brilliant. I hate the cockney twat character he plays in adverts, but he was good in this. And Ben Kingsley was brilliant, earning award nominations.

And Amanda Holden was quite pleasing on the eye.

'Uncut Gems' - I've never liked Adam Sandler but this is the exception, great story line, fast paced and great dialogue

Trailer is NSfW

Terminator: Dark Feminism

I enjoyed it. Doesn't take itself too seriously. It's no T2, but it's defo better than everything since.
