[Tangled up in Blue]

Never seen it, couldn't possibly comment.

I certainly shouldn't.Haven't seen it either.

 

[Supernaut]

So people say.Only it wasn't.

It very clearly was for millions of people. You know that throwaway, harmless fluff movies can define eras as well as serious, lauded, critics favourite films, right? Only the worst kind of cinema snob would say otherwise.

 

[Ricky Otto]

Don't think it was exaggerated at all.He's always been a very tricky character , very adept at covering up his tracks.

I was thinking about things like:

[SPOILER="spoiler"] The casual way he kept having heart attacks with no panic and his general unflappable demeanor not sure I believe anyone can be that laid back[/SPOILER]

But hey, I'm not against exaggeration for cinematic effect.

Trainspotting is hardly high art now is it?

Compared to Dirty Dancing it is!

 

[MK Shrimper]

Sort of watched The Nutcracker & The Four Realms. Despite a stellar cast it's awful. 2/10

 

[Napster]

Death of Stalin. Great cast but dull, unfunny and just meh

Yeah I couldn't get on with that either. Bit too knowing.

King of Thieves - Based on the Hatton Garden jewellery robbery it's about a crew of retired crooks who pull off a major heist in London's jewellery district. Based on infamous true events. The cast is led by Michael Caine. Kept us totally engrossed for a couple of hours, good film 8/10.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Saw The Children Act again last night on DVD.Easily the best British film of 2018,IMO.

 

[Tommy2holes]

Watched Green Book.

Story of a black musician playing down south during the time of segregation. Fantastic film.

Really enjoyed it. 9 out of 10

 

[MK Shrimper]

Sorry to Bother You.

Stars Atlanta star Lakieth Stanfield in a frankly bonkers satire of capitalism & greed. Weirdness level 10, entertainment value 7.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Enjoyed If Beale Street could Talk.A moving adaption of James Baldwin's novel.

I watched The Muppets Take Manhattan yesterday (never seen it before). Very slow unlike today's kids films, but MK Jnr enjoyed it even if the end is incredibly mawkish. 7/10

Did you think a Muppets film would end in a highly ritualised sadistic murder?

Did you think a Muppets film would end in a highly ritualised sadistic murder?

Lol, of course not but it was hugely over sentimental.

 

[Freedom for Tooting]

Did you think a Muppets film would end in a highly ritualised sadistic murder?

Now that is a film I would watch.

 

[Freedom for Tooting]

Or a Muppet movie directed by and starring Ben Dover?
