bosstrabs C_J I often wonder why people watch movies that have actors they hate. I also dislike Sienna Miller. I detest Mel Gibson and always have. Major swerve for me unless critically acclaimed. This one wasn’t.
C_J bosstrabs I don’t hate her as such. In fact she seems sound. I just tend to struggle with her. Plus I didn’t actually know she was in it.
-si- Embarrassed to admit i only watched the shining in it’s entirety, for the first time, at the start of this year. I enjoyed it. He played that character and scenario really well i thought. Going to watch chinatown this weekend.
Along_the_Wire I watched it recently, been going through some classic films with our youngest - he’s been loving it and it’s been great watching films like that you haven’t seen for a long time. French Connection up next - what a treat
gcw Nicholson is such a great actor, and Chinatown is superb. Imagine a night out on the lash with Nicholson!
Along_the_Wire LT42 Yeah, love the second one - always underrated that one, but it’s great - Gene Hackman does some turn in that.
bosstrabs Millsy Get Shorty a great Hackman vehicle. Thought it was shit when it came out, didn’t concentrate properly. Watched it again a few years ago and it was magnificent. Hackman playing basically a wimp, totally different to his usual roles, but brilliant.
jonattonyeah Watched “Enemy of the State” not too long ago. Held up quite well! Hackman is excellent in it as always.
Kells77 Apocalypto - 4/10. Lots of action, and a sad story, but it was too long, and some of the plot just fell flat for me.
Along_the_Wire Kells77 I’ll bet you any money you don’t get as much grief as me for a similar post. If any.
Kells77 Along_the_Wire I’ll bet you any money you don’t get as much grief as me for a similar post. If any. Did you previously get grief for watching a shitty movie? That’s not really fair. We all do it lol. I’ll take my lumps if the come though. My only defense is that I was ill yesterday, so poor choices were always going to happen 😂
