Last Film You Watched

Watched Fractured. lol There is one scene in this that is mad.
when it shows the half operated on kid in the back of his car and he’s driving away all proud
 
I also just watched "A Sniper's War", which is a documentary about an esteemed Serbian sniper who fights with pro-Russian forces in the Donetsk Oblast. It is really compelling, and the director did a great job of capturing the complexity of the character: every scene about him seems to alternate between stone-cold killer and kind human. Some of the footage is insane, and there is this subplot where the "God of Mauripol" (a Ukranian sniper) messages him over facebook and they set up duels to kill each other and message each other threats. The film was criticised as only presenting the "Russian side" of things but there is no rule that documentaries need to present both sides. I thought it was terrific.
 

Friday: The Shawshank Redemption. Mesmerizing. As always.
Saturday: The 12th Man - absolutely my favorite war movie. Brilliant.
Sunday night - Alien. No words.
Monday night - The Untouchables. Fantastic.
Tuesday night - Scarface. No amount of gushing does it justice.
Last night - Top Gun: Maverick. Brilliant.

Off to see that Elvis film tonight - I fear it may not hold up to the others I've watched this last week but we will see.

Downton Abbey 2. Sibby gets a Villa! Loved it. Wish they would just make the series still. Molesely describing a emotional movie scene an absolute highlight.

Injustice. Superman goes dictator, late night snoozer. Not as good as Justice League Dark whateveritwas.

Dr Strange 2. Shut up @Prevenger17 I enjoyed it. Captain Carter. Phwoar.

Everything Eveywhere. Michele Yeoh in the multiverse. Interesting movie, enjoyed it. Ke Huy Quan should have stayed acting, he’s superb.

The Northman. Watched the first 5 minutes and then Woke up at the end with no idea what was going on. Must try again!

elvis definitely worth a watch I was surprised how much I actually enjoyed it but it isn't in the same bracket as some of last week's films

Blows my mind that the majority think Aliens is better.
I first watched Alien at home after everyone else had gone to bed. After it was over I didn't want to open the living room door to head upstairs. Slept (kinda) on the couch.
Incredible tension when it was unseen.

Me too. Aliens is utterly fantastic. A brilliant film on all levels......but Alien is way, WAY better, and MUCH more my kind of movie.

Here's how I defend my decision. They are two totally different genres of films....Alien being an atmospheric Sci/Fi horror movie, and Aliens being a Sci/Fi war movie. Its one of those personal taste things....a little like Godfather I v II, or Star Wars v The Empire Strikes Back....there is no right or wrong choice.

When I was 10, my father was away on business. My mum wanted to watch the movie, which incredibly, was shown on TV uncensored - this was in 1979. But she was too scared to watch it alone, so she made me watch it with her! In the dark, just the two of us. Scared the ....... .... out of me! Now its one of my top 5 films....ever.

Its the beautiful thing about us and opinions are food for the soul.

I stand by my film opinions because if your here long enough you’ll discover my opinion on film is always correct.

Disagreeing with me is like telling Lionel Messi how to play football.
