Couple of films on the plane

Few weeks back on flight to USA, watched Alien Covenant. Thought it was rubbish, with scenes copied from the previous Alien films as well. Glad I didn't pay to see it at the Cinema.

Love Film has shut down today - last film I have to watch is Captain Phillips which I'm looking forward to.

The "new" Blade Runner;- well folks for me a 6 or 7/10.
Sort of old Blade Runner + Matrix + Total Recall + Terminator mixed up and amalgamated re-hash.
As long as watchers don't have high high expectations then OK but it ain't a classic.

The more I think about it, the more I think it's only going to appeal to disciples of the original - very hard to follow otherwise.

Thor: Ragnarok. Very different to the first two Thor movies (the ugly step children of the marvel universe), much closer to Guardians in tone & look. Action packed, moves fast, VERY funny, excellent performances all round, Blanchett's Hella is one of the best marvel villains, Thor & Loki's relationship gets a satisfying conclusion. Great fun, and possibly in my top 5 Marvel movies. 9/10

Yeah, agree with all of that. A tagline I've seen floated about is "Asgardians of the Galaxy". It feels like they've taken Thor and rebooted it using GotG as a template.

Saw Hitchcock's Frenzy again last night.Probably my favourite of his last films.Love the (old) Covent Garden (fruit and veg market) scenes.

Sure is. I turned it off.

Two good films yesterday - It - best Stephen King adaption since Misery? Long old film, but never dragged. 9/10

And rewatched The Iron Giant - one of my favourite animations ever! 10/10

 

[united we stand]

Jigsaw - 6. You know what you are getting as they are all very similar. This is nearer the worst rather than the best of the films.

They should make a film about the last C2C train back to Essex on a Thursday night.

 

[GrumpyBlue]

Murder on The Orient Express ,10/10 .

Also saw it on Sunday - 9/10 for me - great special effects and marvellous steam train!

Off to see Death of Stalin tonight

 

[Jam_Man]

Murder on The Orient Express 7/10

I saw it on Friday.

Was ok and enjoyed the first half but have to admit was bored towards the end and thought the ending was disappointing.

The Journey with Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney and John Hurt.Worth seeing. |

 

[MK Shrimper]

Majorie Prime - holograms, dodgy memories and on the whole an excessively dulll film. It's had rave reviews, but it's so dull I switched it off. No score.
