Homegrove iPad and download rentals or purchase. I never watch the stuff on planes - often badly out of date and / or shit

    Along_the_Wire yeah the combination of small screen and a movie with someone like Hugh Grant, plus earphones from 1985 plugged into your seat makes for a truly shite few hours.

      LT42 how to say you ride economy and don’t use LOUNGES without saying you ride economy and don’t use LOUNGES.

          Nothing like a pretend whiskey sour in the pilots lounge after you’ve just dropped a nuke on the Whitehouse, then reverse corkscrew landed your spitfire on a Friday evening. Tally ho!

            A Working Man (2025) 4/10

            Thought this might be another Beekeeper given it has the same protagonist and director, but this has none of the fun of seeing entitled millennials in suits, disabled white South Africans or Jeremy Irons being murdered.

            Statham, in a more familiar role as an ex-British paratrooper, is working on a construction site (hence the film’s imaginative title) in Chicago when he decides to rescue his boss’s daughter from the Russian mafia. In a lot of respects it is like Beekeeper- our second favourite bald headed Brit works his way up the criminal hierarchy purging it of the badness until, inevitably, his mission completed and hunger sated, he returns to a quiet life in the countryside with his daughter and blind friend.

            Unlike Beekeeper however the fight scenes are all shot in dark corridors, burning houses, swamps at night or dingy clubs which makes it hard to really see what’s going on. The choreography is not great either.

            Makes Taken look Oscar worthy.

              Good description of the Biz Tranz.

              At a time when I’m compiling a ‘films what to watch’ list, appreciate you taking one for the team!

              RichM What would people recommend at the moment (no marvel, sci fi shite)

              Commando.

              Thank you sir!

              Enjoyed hard truths. Witty and moving in equal measures with a great lead performance from a clinically depressed Mariane Jean Baptiste. Have always loved the way Leigh captures small town London. His best since Happy go lucky IMO

              La Dolce Villa, me Julie’s choice.

              Quite possibly the worst film I’ve ever seen

              Alarm bells!!! Get rid

              It did make me think about going back to Tuscany.

              Which was nice.

                Smallman1 I know what you’re going through Ed. Equaliser 3 was also a terrible film but made me long for the Amalfi coast.

                Licorice Pizza (2021). Rhouses was right, it’s really hard to get past the age difference when he’s 15 and she’s 25. Will probably like this more on a rewatch, but I think that’s true with half of PTA’s films. Great cameos from Sean Penn, and I never liked Bradley Cooper that much (more like tolerate him in movies) but he was on one here.

                3 ⅕ stars.

                  I couldn’t get into Liquorice Pizza at all. Turned it off after an hour. Might try again at some point although life is too short.

                    Millsy don’t try Inherent Vice. Some people really hate it, but for me it was love at first sight.
