hauxwell Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) Elvis Austin Butler is brilliant at replicating Elvis. Good acting from Tom Hanks, as always. 8/10 Edited August 15, 2022 by hauxwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky_Gibbon Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 The Taking of Pelham One Two Three - 8/10 Robert Shaw and Walter Matthau are both excellent in this crime drama about a group of criminals who take the passengers of a subway train car hostage. I love these older films that show glimpses of how grimy New York used to be, it's almost a character all of its own. Probably wasn't all that great to live there at the time but it makes a great background for a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a fantastic film, very underrated the stand off between Shaw and Matthau are excellent, good ending too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearysmith Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) 'Fisherman's Friends: One And All' 7 - 10 Tad on the dark side. An angry man slipping into alienation and depression through alcohol over the death of his father. Best thing about it is Imelda May but she doesn't sing enough. Speeds along at a rapid pace. There's a lot of tangents they could have explored, but went for the twee pat ending. Fine songs if you're in to archaic shanties.

Funky_Gibbon Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 The Holcroft Covenant - 5/10 Michael Caine stars in the adaptation of a Robert Ludlum novel about the son of a Nazi general who is told decades later that his father, along with two other Nazi generals, stole a fortune from the Third Reich towards the end of the war and hid it in a Swiss bank account that has to be accessed jointly by the sons of those generals. As he tries to track down the other two men, mysterious third parties appear to intervene. Far from a classic and Caine seems somewhat miscast but an ok mystery conspiracy thriller for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always loved Bond films as a young un but they are looking dated now I'm pretty sure Diamonds Are Forever felt dated in the year it was released....
