Last Film You Watched

Watched The Meg 2 yesterday...its become a Chinese film in all but Statham being in it.

No real jumpy moments. 3/10 purely as i like Statham.


Then Oppenheimer today...decent story but i was checking the time a few times...isnt half boring.

I'll give it 4 Zat pancakes / 10 though purely due to Flo Pugh's nudity @Goat
 
Oppenheimer was very good. Some incredible acting on show. Told a story not many people know too well these days and I certainly didnt expect so many other famous scientific names to come up. Really showcases how intertwined science and politics and war was around that time with the personal story of Oppenheimer himself adding a human element. Quite an intense 3 hours but well worth it imo.
Watched Oppenheimer last night. Although it was long, I never once thought to myself it was dragging, each scene has you engrossed and engaged even though the film bounces around a bit. Fantastic again from Christopher Nolan.
 

I really enjoyed the first one. It does exactly what it says on the tin.
Yeah defo, I'd say this ones probably not as good overall, but it really doesn't deserve the sniffy reviews its getting. Read one today where the critic nitpicked something and she just clearly hadn't been paying attention. I think they're just lining up to give it a hiding, maybe because of Wheatley being involved. Gave I a few chuckles, kept I entertained, all you want on a slightly hungover Saturday on a big massive screen.
 
This evening, I will be mostly watching....

Hackman "You just shot an unarmed man"
Eastwood "Well, he should have armed himself"

We got lucky at the turn of the 90's with this (92) and 'Dances with wolves' (90), two superb pieces of western cinema, both very different and incredibly sad.
Well, this is handy, a quick scoot around and what'd you know...

"The lost boys" starts on BBC THREE in 8 minutes, and runs back to back with "Unforgiven" at 11pm on Quest. Deal!

great film that, possibly my all time favourite movie. Must have watched it at least a dozen times.

I've killed women and children. I've killed everything that walks or crawls at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you done to Ned

All right, I'm coming out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna shoot him. Any sumbitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife, all his friends, and burn his damn house down.

What a scene that was

"all's I can tells you is who's gonna be last" - always get that thick dark humour with a Clint performance.
 

Well there's a bit of trivia, watched Tina Turner in concert last night on sky arts I think and the saxophonist was somewhat exuberant, only turns out he's in 'the lost boys' in the gig on the beach bit near the beginning. One 'Tim Cappello'. Same moves, same ton of brylcreem and bodybutter, probably the same sax as well.
