Don’t Let Go.

Really enjoyed this, as it’s a real head bender.

I won’t even try to explain it, but the niece of an LA detective, is murdered along with her family and he starts receiving phone calls from her after her death and together they start to unravel the murder.

It involves, the past, the present and the future, hence the head bending !

Cracking performance from Storm Reid as the detectives niece - a star in the making.

[No Alla Violenza]

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but there's an Italian crime drama up on iPlayer called 'Piranhas'

It's set in Naples and it's about a gang of teenage lads getting involved in criminal activity

I thought it was decent and well worth watching, thought it was worth bringing it up as there are a few of us on here who like Gomorrah, Suburra etc.

Candyman. IMdB rating was not encouraging before the screening but I'm glad I went with it. It's really good.

Paddy Considine is in it along with every other gritty northern film made in the last 20 years.

No chance I'm watching that. Last time I said candyman 3 times into the mirror I met my missus.

Great cast used fantastically. The suspenseful ending in particular was right up my street.

Really think it must be Jackman's best performance, an actor who for me goes underappreciated.

Edit: On Amazon Prime for those who haven't seen it.

Yeah agree. Plays a good angry man.

 

[Tommy.]

Yeah agree. Plays a good angry man.

He really started making me believe in his acting prowess in The Prestige.
I agree though, roles like this he really shines in.

Shang chi....
Quite enjoyable....apart from shoehorning Ben Kingsley in as a 'paul-mccartney' esque Scouse actor who of course managed to get his rs scarf into prison with him

Wrong Turn.

I really wasn’t expecting much, as quite often the reboots are dreadful, but this is a cracker.

Ignore the reviews, it’s excellent ( if you like this sort of film )

Starts off like ever other “ group of unlikable, privileged kids go hiking in the woods and bad stuff happens “ type film.

But once the bad stuff starts to happen, it really kicks into gear and develops into
a very effective psychological horror film. I’d say it’s better than the first..

Charlotte Vega, who I’d never heard of, is outstanding in the lead

A cross between Deliverance and the lesser known Ritual.

I clocked this yesterday but thought it was the original which I wasn't that fussed about, I ended up watch "Into the Inferno" instead, that was decent with a very good cast in it

It starts off pretty much like any of these films, but once they get into the hills it becomes really polished and the sets are excellent too.

I’d have happily gone to the cinema to see it.

Great ending too.

The Reflecting Skin

Woah, this was nuts. A cult horror film from the 90's which i hadn't heard of until now.

Its like Twin Peaks filmed at the Days of Heaven set. Mad but great once you get used to it.

Have you seen this @COYBL25
