Spaceman - Adam Sandler

Liked the special effects but the film was too long for what we actually got and the ending much too short. I’ve seen that trait in a lot of films recently.

I’ll give it a grudging six because it made me stay to the end out of curiosity.

A very unusual but worthwhile film....

Thought the OScars largely got it righr with Oppenheimer & Zone of Interest picking up major awards.though J. ROSS on ITV was embarrasingly bad.

Here in the UK we had to suffer Jonathan Ross---15 minutes of him was more than enough and I went to bed!

Snap-though I lasted a bit longer.

Roll back the years to 1957.......Daft but fun...........

I saw this 1950's U S Sci Fi movie this morning.....Warning this film contains a cast of unknown people!

 

[BALDY]

Ms Baldy and I were very impressed with "The Zone Of Interest"----Here is another excellent film....Miss this at your peril!

It Broke Me!
zconkerite4 January 2024
First off, Aunjanue Ellis Taylor deserves an Oscar as does the movie's director, Ava DuVernay. I don't use this sentiment lightly. The pacing of Isabel Wilkerson, her work, the research and her findings are all laid out. Books are different from films. I'll admit, I had not read it before seeing the movie so I do not have any prejudices about the story. I wrote that "It Broke Me" because I not only learned about Ms. Wilkerson but also more about myself. She is alive folks! Not an imagined character or a dead one either. Relatively young. I hope she continues her work. Opening people's eyes is worth the entire trip of emotions this adventure took me on. Wake up folks! I sure have.

Turkish RomCom with subtitles set predominantly in Croatia. Not my genre whatsoever annd didn’t expect much so was thoroughly delighted to watch and enjoy the whole thing. A 7 out of 10 from me.

No but key board plays up sometimes plus I don't use a spellchecker.Also must confess to typing after a few beers sometimes.

Is it spellchecker or spell checker?

Dunno.I prefer the former.

That'll do it.

That'll do it.

Think this is appropriate.

Saw The Long Good Friday again in the early hour on Film 4 with Bob Hoskins & Helen Mirren.Arguablly the best British gangster film ever made.I can remember when it was first released ,I was queing up for half price theatre tickets in Leicester Square when some tout was going down the line trying to flog tickets for it:Fortunately I 'd already seen the film.
