Finally got around to watching it last week. Thought it was very good. Hard to watch some scenes. Some interesting side stories. Excellent performance from Joaquin.

Best satirical film? Dr. Stangelove is ace.

lee

once upon a time in hollywood..the tripping scene at the end was hillarious

Stephen Paul

Just downloaded the Irishman

hopefully the film lives up to its expectations 

goat

Not a film but finally started watching stranger things, it is fucking good, even the soundtrack

The Blue Blooded Maniac

Watched the first three episodes of stranger things, no idea what was going on so sacked it off.

Rick and Mortey and Bojack Horseman are good.

goat

John Wick 3 = Complete pile of shit. The body count is impressive though.

Did the first two not tip you off?

reddishblue

Might have slept through them.

The Blue Blooded Maniac

In the last fortnight I've been to see knives out, frozen 2 and joker. Knives out was alright but not as good as everyone makes out, frozen 2 was alright, joker was fookin mint!

Hesperus

Anyone watched “The Keeper” a out our very own Bert Trautmann? It’s just come on Sky. Thought it was really good. Some good CGI of Maine Road.

gavin

Yes, I enjoyed it very much. What a varied and interesting history City have   :D

Bill and Ted face the music - Horrendous shite.

The song that saves the space/time continuum thingy is proper shite too.


goat

new ghostbusters probably going to be shite

reddishblue

Didn't see the trailer so suffered the entire debacle until the fucking song. Serious time I will never get back.

Let me know when the Ghostbusters trailer is out. Ta.

Watch Breaking Bad again!  I've just restarted it and it's just as good 2nd time around.

Just watched 1st season of Schitts Creek and like it.

gavin

The Americans on Amazon is a good long series that has finished now so you can sit and watch it from start to finish. Good stuff.

goat

my old man just finished deadwood, he liked it

Firstly, 1917. Decent movie, whats more impressive is that's it's shot in two takes.

Also, has anyone watched the boys (Prime).  Its good.

reddishblue

The Invisible Man - Poor attempt at a thriller/suspense type of fillum and fails completely as it is entirely predictable, basically boring shite.

I have major issues with this film...

1. Tarantino has taken a real life tragedy and completely changed the story. There was no need as its pretty brutal anyway.

2. They make Bruce Lee look like an arrogant wimp.

3. Not much happens for a v. Long time. I don't mind slice of life, but this was slice of wrists...

4. Tarantino has disappeared up his own arse with dialogue.

The ending was Tarantino, almost at his best.

The Blue Blooded Maniac

Ye it's a shame the rest of the film didn't match the last 15 minutes.

Forgot to add as well, the biggest crime of this film, is that Margot Robbie was hardly in it!!!

She was spot on in the Wolf of Wall Street   8)

Any karate kid fans, watch Cobra Kia on Netflix, series one and two...

goat

first was decent in a novelty/nostalgia way, second wasnt great, still have to watch third
