Funky_Gibbon Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Tolkien - 8/10 I know it's not a completely accurate biopic about the early life of J.R.R. Tolkien and some liberties were taken but I really enjoyed this story about love, friendship and war and the influences they had on his later writing. Nicholas Hoult is great in it.

nikki-red Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Studio 666 7/10 Its gory, cheesy, loud and contains the Foo Fighters. What’s not to love? In light of recent events it’s really sad too. RIP Taylor Hawkins ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky_Gibbon Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 The Bubble - 5.5/10 A 'meta' comedy about a group of actors trapped together in a hotel at the start of the Covid pandemic where they'll film the 6th film in a terrible but wildly successful dinosaur action franchise for a film studio that doesn't care about anything but finishing the movie. A bit too navel-gazing and Hollywood in-jokey for its own good but there were some decent laughs. I doubt I'll ever want to watch it again though.

Rockers rule Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Moonfall 2022. PG13. No spoilers from me. Science Fiction Disaster movie. Ignore any negative comments - enjoy the film for what it is. Ok, most of the plots have been done before - But the twist of the ending is well worth waiting for. Well we thought so . 8.5 /10 Fully enjoyed - worth watching.

Funky_Gibbon Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) All The Old Knives (Amazon) - 5/10 A spy 'thriller' that is quite sedentary for a thriller. Two CIA agents (and former lovers) meet to review a terrorist event that happened 8 years earlier. Well made and acted but the story itself is extremely predictable.

hackey lad Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Sons of Katie Elder . Cracking film with a rousing title theme 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bargepole23 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) The Alpinist 9/10, documentary about free solo climber Marc-André Leclerc, hard to watch at times but a fascinating human story. I'd also recommend The Last Mountain, another documentary about a young climber, and also 14 Peaks. Edited April 11, 2022 by Bargepole23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dromedary Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Something on Amazon calle Infinite and has Mark Wahlberk in it... 3/10 Plenty of action, no substance and worth a miss, or watch it for a laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky_Gibbon Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 The Northman - 9/10 Dark, beautiful, extremely violent and gory in parts (how this got a 15 rating I'll never understand) and yet even for that it's an art house film at heart. Based on the legend of Amleth, which was also the inspiration for Shakespeare's Hamlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky_Gibbon Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Spiritwalker (Korean) - 7/10 One part Bourne Identify, one part Memento (ish), one part John Wick. Man wakes up after a car crash, a bullet in his shoulder and no memory. He looks in a mirror and his reflection is someone else. Suddenly he's in another body, in a another place, and he has no idea what is happening but has to try and figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
