The Circle

Tom Hanks. Emma Watson. Facebook/Google techno-thriller.

On Netflix. Jesus, it’s shit.

Too many to list! I consider myself a film buff and would typically stay watching despite how gash it was, however recently time's been short so 15 mins max and then chop if it ain't tickling my...

Indeed! Had high hopes going in, but it went absolutely nowhere.

ESCAPE PLAN: THE EXTRACTORS

As much as I like Sylvester Stallone, he does some utter bilge; this is one of them, shockingly bad!

On Netflix :tongue-new:

HALLOWEEN

Obviously not the superb and timeless original, but the 2018 reboot/update.

Got JLC and the excellent Will Patton, but jesus it’s dire.

The Untouchables

Saw this at release years ago and thought it was decent, did a recent revisit and jesus what bollocks! The music in particular, the script, the pacing, even the acting by most of...

Disagree! Anything with Rhona Mitra is worth a viewing even if a mindless plot!

However 20 mins in I had to switch off - Red Sparrow - Jennifer Weinstein trying to sound Russian was too grating.

The Thomas Crown Affair

The 1968 original with Steve McQueen. I'm a big fan of period cinema but this was utter bollix! Style over substance, a total yawn-fest.

In fact, I find most of...

I watched it a couple weeks ago for the third or fourth time, terrific film! :eagerness:

It's an allegory of Odin witnessing the arrival of religion and knowing the impact it will have on man.

Ghostbusters

The recent remake... I expected it to be pretty bad but Jeeeeesus!

I normally try and get through till the end, but this was cut just under an hour in. Absolutely woeful!

GRAVITY

Talk about CGI overruling everything else!

I give it 1/10 and that's just for seeing Sandy in her knickers :smug:

Another REALLY disappointed with Mad Max: Fury Road :eek-new:

And I say that as a big fan of MM and Tom Hardy. Impressive action for sure (most of it being non-CGI) but they certainly left the...

Interstellar

OMFG just don't! I'm a BIG sci-fi fan but WTF gimme my three hours back you utter utter funts!

And yes, this didn't help:

Four things about her do it for me: her eyes and her... :icon_biggrin:

Ah but Neil, the song's anti-war meaning tallies with the gung-ho 'Muricans being the dumb aggressors during the whole thing!

(I enjoyed the film on first viewing, but it's pretty thin on repeats...

I quite enjoyed it! Styled very much like Miami Vice (movie, not the TV show), and Ray Winstone is as menacing as ever :untroubled:

NON-STOP

Liam Neeson airborne mystery, obviously the writer was smoking a crack pipe. Semi-okay for an hour but the way it ends up, oh FFS! :grey:
