The Grand Budapest Hotel - 9/10

 

I generally don't like Wes Anderson films but this one was great.

Captain America - winter soldier. Good effects, decent enough story - a bit darker in tone than most marvel fare. The hair and makeup dept needs shooting - what did they do to Scarlett johansson - she looked a right state. 8/10

The first 90 nins were great. Then it just off on one. Enjoyed it overall but Casino was by far the classier movie.

 

I think my main objection; was the notion that a disenfranchised British spy, who had just tried to kill himself (with a cyanide capsule I believe); could come back from the brink of death, and build such a sophisticated empire around himself, that he can take on MI6 (who presumably would have the police and armed forces at beck and call), and that the MI6's response would be to drive up to a cottage somewhere in Scotland, and have one agent and an OAP, defend 'M' with shotguns and exploding light-bulbs.

 

To my ears, the plot just didn't ring true!

Willow Creek - 4/10 - Found footage film again (getting a bit tired of them now) a couple go to bigfoot territory to hopefully catch some footage of the famous beast, its a short film mostly made up of the couple interviewing the locals, the scary bits on their tent are quite effective but dont start until about 25mins from the end, would have made a better 30min short.

Carrie - 7/10

 

Watchable horror, not as creepy as the original but some half-decent special effects.

This is a Bond movie we are talking about, how did you cope with the invisible car, rocket cigarettes and radioactive pocket lint.

Spider-man 2. Good effects very good ending and they included a hidden subway station (I love that sort of thing!). Felt it was half an hour too long. Pretty good though 8/10

Sky movies session:

 

Veronica Mars - 1/10

Roadkill 3/Joyride - 2/10 just for the blood and gore

I wouldn't have any problem with any of the things you mention, so long as the plot line, what the actors do etc, is credible and believable.

 

By contrast, the other 2 films he did, I thought were perfectly fine is this regard. The characters were making sensible realistic decisions, and everything kinda made sense.
