Fast 9… dross. Like, I know what to expect and a couple of the earlier ones were mindless dumb fun but this was just silly. It’s The A-Team on steroids with thousands of people with guns firing endlessly at them an no one getting hurt, Vin Diesel Supermanning 20 plus guys, Diesel and John Cena inexplicably brothers despite the rather obvious lack of similarities.

3/10… one point for one action scene so dumb it made me laugh, and two for Nathalie Emmanuel 🤤
 
Nit picking but I always found FnF movies too preachy with its themes of brotherhood and family and doing good stuff to bad people to be 'mindless'. It's like it was trying to add in bucket loads of faux sentimentality, and I don't like it.

Just race the ******* cars.

Licorice Pizza

I can't say much other than this was a funny, charming film that I'd happily watch again. It might not be for everyone - if you're not happy to watch two characters just kinda exist for 2 hours this won't be for you (think a sunnier version of Lost of Translation, starring a charismatic 15 year old instead of a miserable Bill Murray) - but if you're happy to just sit back and watch, you'll probably find this to be a really good film (as long as you don't mind the whole age gap thing). 8/10
 
Pleasure

Probably the closest thing to a pr0n film that would be shown in media circulation without getting an X rating the movie tells of 19 year old Swedish Actress Bella Cherry (Sofia Kappel) trying to make it big in the pr0n Industry actually wasn’t a bad film

3 Stars
More explicit than 9 Songs??
 
Oh yeah, should have added the criticism of poor actors delivering poor dialogue as if it’s Shakespeare.
He genuinely thinks F&F is genius.


“Hobbs hits you like a ton of bricks. That’s something that I’m proud of, that aesthetic. That took a lot of work. We had to get there and sometimes, at that time, I could give a lot of tough love. Not Felliniesque, but I would do anything I’d have to do in order to get performances in anything I’m producing,” Diesel said in the profile.

Diesel’s invocation of the Italian auteur known for his demanding directing style seemed to amuse Johnson — and his “Jungle Cruise” co-star Emily Blunt — during their THR interview.

“Just thank God he was there,” she said of Diesel. “Thank God. He carried you through that.”


For mine the biggest issue with F9 was that Vin take this s**t FAR too seriously. They are big dumb action films, theyre meant to be big dumb fun, he is far too serious and sincere for anyone to enjoy his bits of them and without the Rock and Statham and Walker it leaves too much of the levity to too few people with too little charisma.

F9 sucked for a whole bunch of reasons but thats the main one.
 
Yes it’s more explicit than 9 songs one movie scenario has two girls and a banana where the black hair girl use‘s it as a penis to teach Bella a Blowjob scene
You know 9 songs shows actual penetration and erect males coupled with actual male orgasm scene while receiving oral pleasure? I find it hard to believe that a mainstream movie could be more sexually explicit but in saying that I have not seen the movie you are talking about.

The first scene of the movie is a full erect penis and penetration followed by a cum scene

House Of Gucci.

Was fine, kept me interested without looking at my watch given that it was 2 1/2 hours long. Its a melodrama with a lot of overacting. Adam Driver and Lady Gaga doing absolutely horrible accents, i heard traces of Russian, American, Spanish and other strange dialects which i was a bit surprised given Lady Gaga is of Italian descent. Fat Al Pacino doing his usual shtick and an attempt at kissing between 2 of the biggest noses in movies, Adam Driver and Camille Cotton (from Call My Agent) (spoiler alert, they didn't quite get there!) oh and there was an unrecognizable Jared Leto too. 7/10
 
Mean Girls

Quality film, good laugh for a Sunday night.
Have to rate movies as what they are and trying to achieve. E.g I'm not comparing Frozen with Texas Chainsaw Masacre.

Mean Girls absolutely nails what it is, one of the classics of its type.

Am I the only one that stopped watching after 1?
 
House of Gucci

Awful film - the worst 2021 release that I've seen so far (40 and counting).

I alternated between laughing out loud at moments that I don't think were intentionally funny, and being bored out of my brain.

Meandering, way too long.

Terrible script.

Shocking direction and/or editing. It had a stretch of about 45 minutes that felt like a series of almost unrelated scenes, including dramatic scenes that suddenly ended and had no link to the next. Horrible, horrible flow.

A decent cast, but Adam Driver was the only semi decent performer - he was good with the exception of his Italian character having random bursts of an American accent.

Lady Gaga (also Italian) opted for a vague Eastern European accent. Jeremy Irons (also Italian) phoned it in with a mostly British accent. Jared Leto played what has to be the most hammy Italian character I've seen since the Mario Bros film. Al Pacino Hoo Haa'd for 2 hours.

The prosthetics were comically bad. Jared Leto looked like a character from Mars Attacks. Jeremy Irons has black mascara painted around his eyes at one point, in an attempt to show him looking ill, but instead looked more like The Hamburglar.

Overall, it left me wondering how a film with such a credible director and cast managed to get released as it was.

Think Tommy Wiseau with a $50M budget.
 
Insomnia last night made me watch billionaire boys club 2018.
An abomination. Failed hard cos it was just before the spacey stuff came out. Plus doing "stylish" over content.
I yearned to see the original from 87 which I found in full on youtube.
Cheesy 80s production but the true crime story element is interesting.
