Brutalist. Really liked this film and didn’t feel too long at all which really surprised me. Great acting everywhere. 7/10

Cronos. An early Guillermo del Toro film that’s been remastered. A film about a device that gives eternal life. Feels more like a David Cronenberg film - it’s considered a classic, but I wouldn’t go that far A decent 7/10

      Smallman1 Is Vicky Cristina Barcelona any cop?

      I think you will like it Ed for the obvious reasons, but for me it’s pretty forgettable. I haven’t enjoyed a Woody Allen since Match Point though, having recent seen Blue Jasmine which got rave reviews and found it also pretty meh, so I’m probably the wrong person to be giving advice on these sorts of movies.

        I’ve always wondered how Woody Allen has a career. Forget the stuff he should probably be jailed for, his movies are utter shite.

          Along_the_Wire how well it flows considering it’s length is the second most surprising thing about The Brutalist. The most surprising this is it’s budget considering what it looks like.

            Along_the_Wire I’ve not seen either. That child groomer is another blind spot in my movie history. My ex made me watch Match Point though, and knowing her taste I expected to hate it but it was pretty good actually.

                vinnyt77 Probably the Sleeper.

                  Along_the_Wire I think I made it through 10 minutes of Annie Hall, don’t know if I’ve seen Manhattan. I really hate everything I’ve ever seen of his. Plus the pedo thing. He’s so bloody creepy.

                      303abuser Polanski should have been convicted for raping a child but I still think Chinatown is a work of art

                          alistair Yeah I’m not saying you can’t separate the art from the artist, I just happen to hate both Woody Allen and his shitty films.

                            Just watched Conclave with Ralph Fiennes, superb.

                              Dan sorry just seen this.

                              Not seen Narcos although I bought series 1 on dvd for £5 about 5 years ago and never actually watched it. I’ll need to rectify that

                                    Watch it on netflix. Keep the wrapper on the dvd and sell it to hanners for forty quid! Tell him there’s a unseen directors cut with a trans lead called Walter white-flaps.

                                      September 5 (2024). Not sure I needed to see this in a movie theatre. Felt like a made for TV movie with some good acting, but bad editing. It helped I didn’t remember what actually happened in the end. Still, meh.

                                        Homegrove Interesting. I thought it was superb.
