Guest Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Don't Breath 2 6.5/10 Everyone's favourite OAP, blind ex navy seal is back- this time he has to fight of intruders who kidnap his 'daughter'. There's a storyline behind all this, which makes for better viewing. Plenty of gore and all that, just wouldn't be the same without it. I actually enjoyed it.

Not even slasher type horror can be made today without political message. Forever Purge, 2020 - 1/10 See above, but even more pathetic I think they have made several of these, I have seen two, one was ok the other was a joke.

wearysmith Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I enjoyed 'Shang-Chi' more than I thought. I was initially disappointed when I learned it wasn't going to be the award-winning Doug Moench and Paul Gulacy Fu-Manchu version adapted for the cinema. They've REALLY missed a trick there. Will give it a 7/10. Starts as a bog-standard kung-fu 'quest' film, but picks up when Ben Kingsley's Mandarin/Ringo Starr character appears and it all turns a bit trippy. Then we go all 'Crouching Tiger' followed by nods to 'Spirited Away' and 'Godzilla', then The Big Fight scene. Very uneven flick. Some nice CGI and, like all Marvel movies, its saving grace is the correct amount of humour. Hated the soundtrack. Good cast. Great cameos.

Tipstaff Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) The Last Bus (Timothy Spall). An excellent film! A very skilled and heart-warming performance from Mr Spall. An ending, which very surprisingly, made me cry. 9/10. Edited September 10, 2021 by Tipstaff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockers rule Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 'The Show' (2020) Tom Burke, Ellie Bamber and others. We like the 'Strange' & this is sure that. Surreal-Macabre-Fantasy are all the words that should be applicable to this film, but for us there is something that didn't quite Gel. The Excellent Cast & Story line are there, but the middle bits fail some how. For 'Curiosity' value and some of the 'comedy', the film is worth watching. But don't expect too much. 6.5 out of 10 Keep safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockers rule Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Everybody's talking about Jamie. Come on its set in Sheffield and based on a real story. Apart from Abbeydale picture house and the mention of 'Parson's Cross' there wasn't that much we recognised of Sheff. Ok we did notice Kyle Cres on the house Jamie's delivering the newspaper to at the beginning of the film & thanks to Google maps have worked out the path Jamie rides down is off Dryden Rd. Right, that's the reminiscing of Sheffield over, what's the film itself like? Surprisingly its good enough to be watchable, well we thought so. It would have been nice to see a little more recognisable Sheffield but the story based on the real Jamie Campbell (Bishop Auckland works. Where lots of films fall flat or become staid in-between the good bits this didn't. I'm not saying it was the most gripping of films but somehow it kept us entertained throughout. I'm waffling on and not mentioned the music The music's good, in fact there are a couple of very good songs in there. The Comedy and feel good factor make the film. Is it worth watching ? Our answer is Yes. I'm giving it a big 8/10 It's not as good as 'Kinky boots' but it's still worth the 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockers rule Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) OLD (2021) Best movie of the year by far 10/10 +10/10 Based on the novel 'Sandcastle' by Pierre Oscar Levy & Frederik Peeters. Being on a secluded beach with just a few other couples you get along with sound good? It is until strange things start to happen. HTSBO choose this one. I'm expecting the usual - "lets split up" - get killed one at a time rubbish. Starts off a little like 'Fantasy Island' (ish) but sure don't end like it. This has to be one of the most original things i have seen since? I give up! As intriguing as to what's going on on't beach is, the final 'twist' is ? I'm not going to tell you you'll have to watch it yourselves You won't be disappointed. Fully Recommended. Keep safe. Ooop's forgot to mention some of the cast Rufus Sewel - the excellent Man in the High Castle. Vicky Krieps - " " Das Boot, TV series Aaron Pierre - A Word Ken Leung - Blacklist.
