It’ll be the usual instantly-forgettable let down - brainless action set pieces stitched together with a rubbish and hole-ridden plot. That’s what movies are these days. Look at the most successful franchise going - Marvel. It’s all repetitive, overblown trash with no heart or substance.

Enjoy.

No, it’s just an incredibly poorly written, inconsistent load of trash. It’s an insult to real Star Wars.

Woke up at the crack of dawn, couldn’t get back to sleep so did an earlier gym trip then got back and decided to go for a true classic of the 80’s.

Predator. That film is still as good now as it was then, arnie at his best

That new one is going to make me weep

judging from the trailer, I think I'll be needing a hankie too

Films stopped having macho mid-air arm wrestling contests, and I really think cinema has suffered ever since

Black Klansman

Important story that needs to be told in an era where the far right is becoming accepted and normalised.

But as a film, it's alright and nothing more.

The Last Jedi

Will probably have to watch it again as I found it quite jumpy... that was probably just me not concentrating though

Really? I thought it was superb. Good performances, looks fantastic and the tonal shifts are expertly done and would have felt erratic in less gifted hands. And the final few frames left the cinema in absolute silence.

Just watched Dracula Prince Of Darkness, great old Hammer film with Christopher Lee, the soundtrack was awesome, one of the best Hammer soundtracks IMO, the film is good, typical hammer, group of people visiting a castle when most normal people would leg it haha

One of my favourites is Dracula A.D. 1972.

Try the Vampyros Lesbos soundtrack. You could hazard a guess as to what the film is about.
Anyway, the music is of its time(1971), but there's nothing wrong with that.

Over to midsomer murders

Just discovered those earlier this year, has led to many Brit detective binge nights. Lewis, Morse, Shetland, DCI Banks, Scott & Bailey etc...

For anyone who enjoyed the Clancy books/movies with Jack Ryan, you should enjoy the Amazon series "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan" that just premiered this weekend. Basically a prequal of Ryan before he was introduced chronologically in Patriot Games. Moved from the 1980's to present day, with some changes to Ryan, Greer, but nothing that detracts

Just been to see it, thought it was very good.

Incredibles 2, didn't really enjoy it, mostly because the voice of the mum was hugely annoying. I had to check it was the same person that played her in the first one as I didn't remember her sounding so irritating in that, but apparently the same person.

What stikes me about mom was the auto eroticism being evoked when she dons her tight fitting outfit with her exaggerated backside emphasised by the wearing of the thigh high leather boots.
Has no place in a children's film.
Well that's what the bloke with the long macintosh a few seats away was saying

It was good to meet you mate

I sometimes wish I could watch a film without knowing anything about the intricacy, time and flat out creative dedication that each one of them is constructed with.

It doesn’t excuse a bad film but it sure does help you understand and accept what statements the film makers are trying to make.

The main actor John David Washington is Denzel's son. He actually started out as an American football player and had a brief stint in the NFL. I think he is really an underrated actor
