One Battle After Another - very good if not the brilliant film that hype has pushed.
Still a big bold messy interesting film that is at its best in the final hour when it turns towards thriller fare.
PTA has made better films.
Sean Penn - bonkers role!
Steve- With Cillian Murphy and Little Simz.
Pretty uneventful I thought.
The Roses
Wonderfully true to my life..... they even drove the same cars we have done or do.
Funnily enough, my last post said we’d been bought tickets, could be a good surprise! Didn’t know what we were seeing til we were sat in front of the screen.. “The Roses” came up, I thought ,oh well, wouldn’t be my choice but we’re here now… Probably the worst, biggest pile of shite I’ve had to suffer. Managed to get out for a piss after putting up with over an hour of the garbage (oh how i love to watch posh ****s bickering) and told my partner I wouldn’t come back. All 4 of us decided we’d had enough and left.
If that’s your life (every character was an utter ****er), i feel for you and hope I never meet you!
Superman and oddly just watched it on the telly box and enjoyed it again.
Our local cinema is a small town community run thing, so it doesn't show the latest big budget movies. This is no bad thing mostly. It's a two hour round trip to a multiscreen cinema so we don't go that often.
Thats mad my multiplex is 15 mins away and they play VOSE - version original subtitulada Español every Thursday night at 6.00.
It’s easier for me to watch an English language blockbuster film in Spain than you in an English speaking country 🙂
My rule is watch in the original language, I have watched a fast and furious in Spanish on the train as they tend to play movies which was well weird as the voice are never the same and los Simpson just messes with my mind as Homers voice just isn’t right.
(I quite like Spanish tv series as they are usually well bonkers Elite,Alpha males, just don’t think U.K. could handle the sex/sexual comedy)
Pirates of the Caribbean also doesn’t cut it without the Bristol accent 🙂
WOW !!
Strangely enough I'm not an architect, building poncy buildings, and the mrs wouldn't know one end of a crab from the other while we aren't living in California
However .... We are the Roses and we are in a really cr4p marriage and "wonderfully" was very much sarcastic.
I'm pleased you couldn't see the gallows humour in the film.
I've been through some of the shite they were going through (not quite so... excruciatingly articulately, of course) and that's one of the reasons I hated the film. So yeah I stick by "I feel for you"!
Yeah I thought the car chase was great!
F1 The movie. Ridiculous but entertaining.
Only £3.50 including a cuppa at a nice Odeon with big reclining seats. One advantage of been over 60.
Flight of the Navigator.(I don't go to the cinema very often!)
Thunderbolts - great fun in a mostly empty and well-behaved cinema.
Inspired by the horror film thread. For me it was a reshowing of Kagemusha, because I am a big ponce. I only go a few times a year and probably more often than not, it's to see something old.
I’m struggling to understand what’s ‘poncy’ about Kagemusha; it’s a masterpiece of cinema by a Japanese master of the media, like Seven Samurai and Ran are.
The Brutalist
One Battle. Almost three hours long, but didn't feel like it. Penn was the standout character - a real Three Monkeys performance. Final car chase was very well done, as was the roof top one. Lots of star spotting to be done. But... For all that it was just a remake of Terminator / Three Monkeys, and an empty one at that. Left the cinema not knowing what The Resistance was resisting, who the Christmas lot were, how Leanardos character afforded to live, or why the daughter didn't use any martial arts after they made a big play of how good she was at it. 3* film, but an enjoyable one.
It was Just an Accident - last night at Chapter Cardiff. Well worth seeking out, it will be in the running for a foreign language film Oscar so may get wider release at some time. This was part of the BFI London Film Festival, there are further screenings of it as part of that.
