OrangeKhrush Posted August 22 Posted August 22 Wolverine and deadpool 7/10 Probably the weakest of the movies but they did try to create a story arch to fit into marvel. It is likely the end of deadpool, ryan Reynolds will not work with marvel at all. Borderlands 4/10 Betrayal and underwhelming, shit casting and pointless. Very disappointing and not worth the cinema price, watch on stream only type movie. Kevin Hart was fine but he is not Roland like, Idris Elba is Roland like. Jack Black is nauseating and they could have just used the original clap trap voice actor. Kate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis should be put out to pasture far to old to play Lilith and Tanis. Scooter and Elle were the best castings. The movie is a hazed mess. Quote
couscous Posted August 23 Posted August 23 The Union How does Netflix have so much money that they can just casually throw 20-30 million on a movie that cannot even be categorized as a filler. If you turned it on in the background while you were doing something else it would still piss you off. There is a secret service in the US called The Union and when they are compromised they decide to recruit a random guy Walhberg to do their work. Its like a child wrote the plot and the same child taught Halle Berry to act. She is atrocious. The same talentless child also directed the movie. Absolutely horrendous movie. 4/10 Quote
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted August 23 Subscriber Posted August 23 The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (2024) Action/Comedy/War - Alan Ritchson, Henry Cavill, Alex Pettyfer - 8.0/10 Directed by Guy Ritchie and they say based on a true story, I quite enjoyed it, looking at Alan Ritchson as Anders Lassen I thought I was watching a Jack Reacher movie and was waiting for his MP Crew to suddenly appear. The British military recruits a small group of highly skilled soldiers to strike against German forces behind enemy lines during World War II. Quote
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted August 24 Subscriber Posted August 24 This kept me awake all night, there are that many versions of this great Western epic though but would never topple the likes of Clint and TGTBATU plus The Outlaw Josey Wales. Tombstone (1993) - Western/Drama/History - Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, Sam Elliot - 8.5/10 Quote
couscous Posted August 25 Posted August 25 Hijack 1971 (Korean) The movie is a highly fictionalized version of an actual event. A South Korean fighter pilot refuses to shoot down a hijacked South Korean plane headed to North Korea. His actions are condemned and he is discharged from the Air Force. A couple of years later he is working as a first officer on a commercial airliner when the plane is hijacked and forced to head to North Korea. Based on actual events. Its not a bad movie but its overly dramatic. 6/10 Quote
Cicero Posted August 27 Posted August 27 So many absurdly shit films on all streaming platforms nowadays. Genuine crises. Quote
couscous Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Greedy People Himesh Patel & Joseph Gordon Levitt work as police officers in Providence Island. One day they answer a call to a rich mans house. There is a dead woman. There is a million dollars. Lots of people have a stake in it. Its kind of like Fargo. The movie has a great cast with Lily James, Tim Blake Nelson, Jose Maria Yazpik, Jim Gaffigan. Its actually not that bad. 6.5/10 Quote
MUFC Posted September 8 Posted September 8 Chiller called Kristy, better than I thought it'd be. Bit similar to Strangers but not as good - 7.4/10. Quote
OrangeKhrush Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Beetlejuice 2 - wait for streaming, it was not bad, but it was about as paced as the macabre undertow of the movie. It is a little bit slow even if you know what is happening. The acting is good and the movie has no facetious message, just a tried and trusted macabre them. Quote
MUFC Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Fracture, first time since round the year it came out. Isn't quite silence of the lambs, yet still good. 7.9/10. Quote

Reluctant Striker Posted September 22 Posted September 22 The Batman. I liked it, despite Robert Pattinson. He does seem a totally vacant screen presence to me. Not just in this movie. Perhaps Batman is one character where distant & vacant can kind of work. To me, this seemed very similar to the Arkham games. The Arkham Knight was the middle of a trilogy. The one I played. And only none sports game I've ever completed. Pretty much all the bad guys are in that. But with the main plot focused on Scarecrow, Poison Ivy & memories/hauntings of Joker. With all kinds of mayhem going on within an intertwined story. I can't say I'm a huge fan of rapid remakes. Or the lead actor. But I did really enjoy it despite that. Which says plenty about the writing & production. Quote
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted September 24 Subscriber Posted September 24 Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor day - 10/10 Just a classic TPB's masterpiece. After slogging through the netflix season's it was a treat to watch Clattenberg's genius again. Onto the next movies now. Quote
couscous Posted September 28 Posted September 28 Exhuma(Korean) Plot: When the new born son of the wealthy Park family in the US falls ill and doctors are unable to figure out what is wrong they enlist the help of 2 shamans from South Korea. Turns out that the great grandfather was a high ranking official in Korea some hundred years ago and there are secrets buried in his grave. Its horror but not the really scary kind. If a sissy like me can watch it then I reckon the cut-off age for watching the movie should be around 12 years. Stars the guy from Old Boy and I Saw the Devil. Its well made. Definitely worth a watch. 7.5/10 Quote

Moderator Tommy Posted October 1 Moderator Posted October 1 Call Me Chihiro (2023) Quite enjoyed it. Very wholesome with a great message. 7/10 Quote
MUFC Posted October 3 Posted October 3 For only the second time I watched the first Godfather. Dialogue is immense - 10/10. 1 Quote
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted October 6 Subscriber Posted October 6 Damaged (2024) Samuel L Jackson, Vincent Cassel - Crime/Thriller 6.0/10 Wasn't much of a thriller I fell asleep a couple of times watching it. Chicago detective Dan Lawson travels to Scotland to link up with Scottish detective Glen Boyd following the resurgence of a serial killer whose crimes match an unsolved case he investigated 5 years previously.

Cicero Posted October 7 Posted October 7 (edited) Joker: Folie à Deux - 4/10 Honestly, Todd Philips should feel ashamed this was made. Cinematography was the only redeemable thing about this film. Don't get me started on the ending. From being an academy award nominated film, to producing a sequel that is now being compared to Morbius. Just. Wow. Edited October 7 by Cicero Quote
couscous Posted October 7 Posted October 7 MaXXXine After the 2nd movie Mia Goth moves to Hollywood and becomes a pornstar. When she gets her first break in commercial cinema someone starts blackmailing her about her past. I don't remember the first one but it must have been good or I wouldn't have watched the second one or maybe I just watched it for the tits. Let's just say that if MaXXXine was the first movie in the franchise then nobody would have bothered to watch 2 and 3. It's a very ordinary movie with a bigger cast that includes Kevin Bacon, Giancarlo Esposito, Bobby Cannavale, Michelle Monaghan, Lily Collins. Very average movie. 6/10 Quote
Rick Posted October 9 Posted October 9 Terrifier 1 & 2 = Fucking wank Amateurish dross. Why these are highly rated is beyond me. Story is non existent, the writing & acting is awful, and the clown is just irritating to look at. Quote
MUFC Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Second Godfather - 9.5/10. Which do you lot prefer? The first or second? Quote
