That's a full marks film if ever there was one

Hector and the Search for Happiness - 7.5/10

Black Rain 6.7/10

An entertaining, if shallow and cliched, thriller starring Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia who play NYC cops that escort a Yakuza member back to Japan, whom promptly escapes, and they have to hunt him down.

The Martian 10/10

No idea why I didn't watch it sooner. I compare it to why I didn't watch Batman Begins for years but then was blown away

It is quality.

Watch "Moon" if you haven't yet.

Candyman 7/10

I've seen the second film a number of times, but never the original (that I can remember). It was not the splatterfest that I was expecting; more atmospheric, which I liked.

Limitless-7/10

Not what I thought it was gonna be. More addiction themes than I expected. It was a little all over the place. Like it didn't know if it wanted to be a gangster movie, a political movie etc. But Bradley copper is really good in it and he and De Niro workreally well together.

Green Room - 8/10

Imogen Poots <3

Dave, you know Imogen's love is not for you; it's all for me.

lol Poots

Coco - 9.5/10

Loved it

That movie made grown ass men cry in the cinema.

Indeed it did. I was one of them.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade-8/10

Such a fun movie with a ton of impressive for the time set pieces that still hold up after all these years. Connery is so funny and loveable and he and Ford have undeniable chemistry. The movie works at its best and most entertaining when they're sharing the screen.

Mud.

8/10

21 Bridges 6.7/10

Cars 3 - 7/10

Good to see that they fixed the mistake of the last one and had Mater barely be in this one. That being said, it was alright, not great. Definitely made to sell more toys/different paint jobs of cars.

Bad Boys For Life

Liked it better than than the 2nd one but not as much as the 1st.


Like a Boss

6/10

Funny but not super funny.

Romancing the Stone 7/10

I haven't seen this film in at least 20 years. An Indian Jones-lite film, but enjoyable with a dollop of 80s cheddar and silliness.

I will watch the sequel, which again I haven't seen since probably the late 90s, tomorrow.

Jewel of the Nile 5/10

A case of diminishing returns.

Monty Python Holy Grail

Funny

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker 6.5/10

Watching "The Silence" on Netflix. I'm liking it so far.

The Incredibles 2 - 8/10

Enjoyed it, even if it followed a very similar plot/villain to the first movie.

The Silence - 8/10

Way better than Bird Box

I felt it could have been longer tbh

Extraction.

Hemsworth is so damn hot!

Movie was pretty good also fuck the whiny critics complaining about too much violence.

I read that as "whitey critics"

lol

A Star is Born (Latest One) - 8/10

Enjoyed it

I watched that a couple of weeks ago with the wife. I’d go 8/10 too. Not seen the previous ones to compare.

Yesterday 8.5/10

Knives Out 9/10

Rocketman 9/10

Bohemian Rhapsody 8/10

Aladdin (2019) 10/10 (keeps the Little One entranced)

Mary Poppins Returns 7/10 (not really for me)

Bad Times at the El Royale 9/10 (it was a while back I watched this but I remember enjoying it)

Extraction-7/10

Chris Hemsworth plays an ex military soldier now working as a for hire mercenary type who gets contracted to retrieve the child of the biggest drug lord in India kidnapped by a rival drug lord in Bangladesh.

The story is flimsy and at best basic. But Hemsworth carries it, and the movie itself is excessively and gloriously violent, with an excellent 12 minute one shot fight/chase scene.

Joker 8/10

Finally got round to watching it. Joaquin Phoenix went beast-mode in this film. We didn't need another scene of Bruce Wayne's parents being killed, though.

I don't know why the SJW knobs were getting triggered by this film; its doesn't appear to be about Incels or "toxic masculinity" (a bullshit term if ever there was one), at least not to me.

Because they think it promotes and paints Arthur as a sympathetic hero, which is a give I didn't get when I watched it.

Toy Story 4 - 7.5/10

Enjoyable, but feels like it "didn't need to get made". Think it is also my least fav of the Toy Story movies. I do like the antagonist's storyline a lot.
