No kidding.

Could be a bit more gruesome ! his carrot could be cut off

Went to see the remake of IT last week.
Felt a bit like a remake of the Goonies tbh.
And it was only the 1st half of the book which I didn't realise!

I watched true romance yesterday

The scene with Dennis hopper and Christopher walken was fantastic

 

[covcity4life]

kong skull island is a 1/10 film perhaps

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Indiana Jones chases escaped replicants across a futuristic landscape!

 

[Mcbean]

Google IMDB which will give a synopsis of both - does help to remember the plot of the first !

HAHA! It's had some good write ups and I was thinking of giving it a go but because I'm easy influenced I'm going to go with a four word review on a football message board!

 

[Nick]

You might enjoy it, it wasn't Vaughn so much it was just not for me.

 

[Marty]

Wind river 8/10 Jeremy Renner is superb

 

[Marty]

The book of Henry 6.5/10, it was watchable,

 

[Mcbean]

Jo Nesbos' Snowman been panned by the critics - Director admitted to missing shooting 15 scenes - so Jig saw without pieces - might just stick to memories of the book until its on Sky movies

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I had a lazy day today and watched
Why him, starring James Franco and Bryan Cranston 6/10
And trainspotting 2 (again) loved the scene with Renton and begbie in the stalls at the nightclub

 

[Mcbean]

Watched T 2 on Saturday loved it - story line was a good follow from the first and not as depressing ! - thats two good sequels in 2 weeks this and BR 2049

T2 is a great film and i possibly prefer it to the original which I loved (even though I appreciate Trainspotting is a classic of its generation and the better film).

It's so well made and the underlying theme of nostalgia and time waiting for no man. The snippets of original soundtrack. Quality !

Happy Death Day, interesting concept poorly executed, the main actress is stunning though. 4/10

 

[Mcbean]

Sat down to watch BR 1 with the missus last night - surround sound on lights off etc - after about an hour she says its crap - filmed in the dark - too much effing gin more like - watched end on my onio :woot:

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Watched scream for the first time in years today,

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I'm off work sick so I've watched Batman begins a few episodes of CYE and am just going to watch Planes, trains and automobiles

War for the Planet of the apes was decent.

Indeed, despite being an obvious rip-off of Apocalypse Now.

What I don't get though is why the apes only have spears and bows in this movie when they already had guns in the previous one?
