Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 4, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner & Dennis Quaid (1994), seen this film a few times before but I do love westerns and it was on the box. I would give this a 7/10, but it would never beat a good Clint Eastwood western. Edited November 4, 2018 by CaaC - John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgnisExcubitor Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Watched the new Halloween movie. Thought it was meh with few good moments. Also, in what seemed like a good star cast, the girl who plays Jamie Lee Curtis' granddaughter sticks out like a bad apple with her constant pouty lips and overacting. I know @Cicero is a fan. What did you think of the movie? Also watched In the mouth of madness. The acting and direction felt looney at times, though the movie somewhat salvaged itself at the end.

Rick Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Outlaw King - 7.5/10 I enjoyed it quite a bit. Chris Pine gave a fine performance with a pretty good Scottish accent an all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not very detailed on his life and I’ve heard one of the characters is a complete work of fiction, but it’s still a very good film.

As for your other points I thought the doctor was fascinated with Michael. How anyone can keep quiet for so many years, he kept saying. He wanted to understand what drove him. It's just pure academic curiousity for him. He most probably set him free after the bus accident. I also thought they showed Michael's face a lot, especially during the toilet scene with the Brit documentary makers. That was stupid after that brilliant opening shot where they do not show his face. It worked because they didn't. The ending was daft after that super shot of him being trapped in the flames. That only means that we are going to get more sequels. Considering how well this one did financially, you can bet there would be minimum two more. Which is disappointing cause they built up the tension between Jamie Lee Curtis and Michael so well, that Curtis burning him alive would have been an apt end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted November 14, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted November 14, 2018 A Star is Born - 7/10 Bradley Cooper was the standout for me, Gaga will get the plaudits and alot of it she deserves she was only awkward in parts and overall was fairly convincing. But Cooper was something else probably the best I've seen him other then Silver Linings. The story is kind of whatever nothing ground breaking.. I mean its been remade 3 times this is the 4th attempt going back to the 30's. Depressing ending which you can see coming the entire time, worth watching for the performances of the two if nothing else and the music was good albeit not my genre I still enjoyed it.

There is just something so powerful and remarkable about that shot being an avid Halloween fan. Another thing that bugged me, was Laurie at the end. She just drives away? She should know, more than anyone, that you can't kill the boogeyman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs - 7/10 Not as amazing as it's been made out to be. I think at least two of the 6 stories are a bit average.

Bluewolf Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) Watched... 'The Predator' Think they are clearly running out of ideas for this now... 6/10 'The Happytime Murders' An interesting experiment I suppose, not for @True Blue though, far to immature and childish.. made me smile a couple of times in places and had an interesting plot believe it or not... overall only to be watched just out of curiosity really... 5/10 'Peppermint' Female revenge action film.. nothing we have not seen before a hundred times, not bad though.. 7/10 'Outlaw King' Odd seeing Chris Pine in that role and not sure he could pull it off but it was a decent watch, pretty gory in some places.. 7.5/10 'The Little Stranger' Actually enjoyed this Mystery Thriller set in post war Warwickshire, bit on the slow side in places but still enough to keep you hooked until the end.. 8/10 Edited November 23, 2018 by Bluewolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 26, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted November 26, 2018 After reading this below I think I will have to watch Bruce Willis in the first Die Hard AGAIN, this quote did make me laugh. “I’m up there on the roof,” Willis would later tell Entertainment Weekly, “they’re strapping the firehose around my waist and they’re slathering me up with this stuff and I said, ‘What’s this for?’ And they said, ‘That’s so you don’t catch on fire. See those big plastic bags of gasoline over there? We’re gonna blow them up when you jump!” Up to this point in his professional life, the hairiest endeavour undertaken by Willis had been exchanging zinging one-liners with Cybill Shepherd on Moonlighting. The series was a spicy update of the Tracy/Hepburn school of “will they/won’t they?” romantic comedy. Now here he was, strapped to a firehose, surrounded by jury-rigged incendiaries. “When I jumped, the force of the explosion blew me out to the very edge of the air bag I was supposed to land on,” he recalled. “And when I landed everyone came running over to me, and I thought they were going to say, ‘Great job! Attaboy!’ And what they were doing is seeing if I’m alive because I almost missed the bag. Finally, I was like, ‘Why would you shoot this scene first?’ And they were like, ‘If you were killed at the end of the movie, it would cost us a lot more money to reshoot the whole thing with another actor" Die Hard at 30: How the every-dude action movie defied expectations and turned Bruce Willis into a star Ed Power 4 hrs ago On 2 November 1987, Bruce Willis, having just dashed from the set of hit TV romcom Moonlighting, found himself gazing down from the roof of a five-storey parking garage on the Westside of Los Angeles. It was his first night shooting his new movie. He was about to make a literal leap into the unknown, jumping into the crisp LA night as a ripple of explosions lit up the dark behind him. The film, of course, was Die Hard. John McTiernan’s valentine to every-dude grit, pump-action one-liners, and blood-stained vests would achieve more or less immediate recognition as one of the greatest action movies ever made. When it had its inaugural British screening at London Film Festival a little over a year later, on 27 November 1988, it reduced a room of cineastes to “oohs” and “aahs” of suspense, and whoops of excitement. On the 30th anniversary of its UK premiere, Die Hard’s genius is indisputable. Its innovation was to take a straightforward premise – criminals hijack a skyscraper (the still under construction Fox Plaza standing in for fictional Nakatomi tower) only for a lone-wolf cop to take them down one by one – and commit to it entirely. Along the way, Die Hard gave us one of the all-time great cinematic villains in Alan Rickman’s German terrorist Hans Gruber – the alpha and omega of the Hollywood Euro-baddie. And there was a readily identifiable hero in Willis’s stubbled-and-fed-up John McClane.

One of the worst Marvel movies. 2/10 'Star Wars: Episode VIII' 2/10 '3:10 to Yuma (1957)' 8/10 'Spider-man: Homecoming' 7/10 'Django' Awesome. Franco Nero nails the role perfectly. 9/10 'Despicable Me 3' 6/10 'Kongens Nei (The king's choice)' 7/10 'Clueless' 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
