Sully - Usually find anything from Eastwood solid rather than spectacular. This was no different. I enjoyed it. Well filmed well directed. Tom Hanks was restrained and effective. 7/10

Swiss Army Man - Not sure what I just watched tbh. Different and original to say the least. The first half I found a grind. But it got better and better. Paul Dano is one of the more watchable actors going around. Just great at playing oddball eccentric characters where you feel sympathy for him. 6/10

The Revenant -

Owned this on bluray for awhile now, finally had the time to sit down and watch.
Very glad i did, absolutely gorgeous film.
I loved the setting with it's snowy backdrops.
The action scenes were very well done.
Excellent performances, particularly by Leonardo.

4.5/5

Uncle Buck on SBS tonight, get around it

Now there's a blast from the past. That was one of two movies we'd always watch when we visited my grandparents twice a year (they live interstate).

The other one? Calamity Jane

I watched godzilla last nite.

I liked the story , but once the american military came into it, it lost the plot badly.

There is mythological stories of a lizard under the ground in Roxby downs where all the uranium is mined. Evidently if you wake him up, he'll destroy the world/ restore balance.

If the son had any loyalty to his dead dad and what his dad was put threw, he would of let/helped godzilla restore natural balance.

The 1st QTR was good with Bryan Cranston, as soon as he left it went crap.

Secret of Life of Pets

Or Secret Life of Dogs mostly. Kids loved it. For a Dad to sit thru it was ok enough. I liked the main dog, Max. Could easily have been funnier on the whole this movie tho.

Anyone else notice the plot is basically just Toy Story? So similar it's almost a rip-off!

Everytime I'm in jbhifi I'm searching for uncle buck and the mrs is looking for the color purple on Blu-ray

Snowden

Would argue it was unnecessary if Gordon-Levitt wasn't so good.

I was wondering the same after having watched the doco last year - it's an interesting story but what else could a movie tell us we don't already know?

 

[Kakkle]

Anyone seen this? Totally been out of the movie game this year, but will be seeing this tomorrow.

 

[BEaston]

Yep, some posts in the thread earlier. It's good. Very interesting.

weird title

One More Time With Feeling.

The making of Nick Cave's new album in the aftermath of the tragic death of his son. I was pretty tired when I went to see it. The 3d glasses hurt my eyes and I fell asleep.

Gold.

Midnight Special

Nothing special about it in the slightest. Boring AF.

Audrie & Daisy
Just finished watching this with the wife, an incredibly moving film. Even though its set in the US it still hits hime, especially to anyone who knows a victim of sexual assault. I almost feel like it should be shown in high schools across the country.

Swiss Army Man - Not sure what I just watched tbh. Different and original to say the least. The first half I found a grind. But it got better and better. Paul Dano is one of the more watchable actors going around. Just great at playing oddball eccentric characters where you feel sympathy for him. 6/10

I enjoyed it, but then I like weird movies. It's slow paced but the plot keeps progressing, and there are plenty of fun scenes.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Blair Witch.

Saw the poor reviews and didn't think it could possibly be as bad as people were saying... found that people had been generous.

What an incredible boring, annoying, total copy of the first movie that fails, on practically every level to be unique and provide any actual scares.

Spoiler

Also, * whoever designed Blair Witch! I'd been so excited to see her and what we get is something that looks like it's been stolen from The Descent or Grave Encounters. Blair Witch is described from a sighing in the first movie and we got this stupid look knock off? Infuriating piece of s**t

.5/5

 

[Extortion Threat]

Trivisa (2016) - Stylish crime thriller from Hong Kong. Set in Hong Kong,1997 it's about three notorious thieves from Hong Kong looking for a last big score before the Chinese handover. Each of the three thieves storylines is directed & written separately but the movie is edited so well that you'd never know.

It's a bit O.T.T. in places and the plot didn't go the way I excepted but it was certainly entertaining. Some brutally realistic violence, some genuinely funny scenes, it's also quite politically charged at times (fair to say this movie will never be shown in China). I really like Hong Kong movies and it's a shame what's happened to their film industry (to make any money generally their movies need to be released in China which means lots of censorship), thank god for Johnnie To. 7.5/10

Sully. Loved it- kept you interested up until the end and enjoyed the process of the way they told the story, ie. not in chronological order.

Very good.

 

[Dirtywhirl]

Train to Busan

Enjoyed it. Had the right amounts of zombie action and tension. Nicely shot like a lot of the Korean movies.

 

[Quadzilla]

Sully
Tom Hanks great, as usual

Did it well for a story many knew

 

[brutus76]

Sully - 9/10

Should get Hanks an Oscar nom.

Looking forward to the Magnificent Seven in 2 weeks.
