Rate The Last Film You've Seen With Marks Out Of Ten - Part Two

The Disaster Artist, bizarre film that won't be for everyone, but the more it went on, it grew on me, until I loved it in the end. James Franco is amazing as he directs and stars in the story of two wannabe actors ending up making their own movie in LA, also stars Franco's younger brother Dave. 9/10. It is a true story too..

Apostle - 8/10

 

I also watched this a couple of days ago, very atmospheric and well made. The Dan Stevens' over the top scowling in almost every scene kind of made me cringe. Michael Sheen played his part well, but the Stevens' part made me rate it a bit lower. 7/10

Bubba Ho-tep 8/10

 

Extraordinary film from 2002. Two nursing home residents discover and eventually battle an ancient egyptian evil that is preying upon the souls of their fellow inmates.

 

Not a horror or action film, more of an eloquent meditation on age and death.

 

It's narrated by Elvis Presley. Or someone who thinks they are. But don't let that put you off.

 

Well crafted, beautifully shot and great performances from the small cast. A very pleasant surprise.

Holy hell this is extraordinarily violent and bloody. Indonesian martial arts/gangster film about a Triad enforcer who betrays them to save the life of a child and in doing so makes himself and his former friends the targets of bloody retaliation.

 

Starring several of the actors from The Raid/The Raid 2 including Iko Uwais, Julie Estelle and Joe Taslim.

SEARCHING 7/10

 

Social media in all its glory here but a worthwhile thriller.

A father traces his missing daughter by using the web and pieces together the mystery.

Slender Man 3/10

 

I read a lot of bad reviews before I watched this and unfortunately most of them were spot on.

Its boring, the characters are bland and the whole point of things like the Slender Man myth is less is more, the idea of him is scarier than actually showing him on the screen.

The Vanished 8/10

 

I know there are some Korean movie enthusiasts on SF, so this is one to watch.

 

An intriguing thriller which pulls up a few surprises along the way.
