  • Rate The Last Movie you Watched

With a stock that’s declined nearly 70% year to date I’d say you might not have to be suffering these shitty efforts much longer.

Isn’t there talk about bringing adverts to generate more penny’s. YouTube is becoming almost unwatchable on a mobile phone due to the adverts

    You would have thought with the stiff competition from Apple etc it force them to make better programs. Still not as bad as Amazon which is woefull

      Dubman

      Wouldn’t know I only trialled Netflix for a month and it was just wall to wall dirge. The thought of ever having to see Jeremy Clarksons stupid fucking face is enough to make me never watch Amazon.

        Yeah, the grey man was distinctly poor - Chris Evans was amusing to a point but it was just a string of lame action pieces strung together with a flimsy plot covered by giving actors big pay cheques (much like Extraction)

        Maybe Kevin Feige really is the secret sauce behind Marvel films and they just did what they were told to do on their Marvel flicks.

        You could feel Netflix’s requests all over it. - make it lowest common denominator dumb as fuck so people with zero attention spans can watch it, have them go to as many locations as possibe so every territory can point at the screen and seal clap ‘that’s (the capital city of) where I live!. I’m sooo seen by netflix!’ and make sure you have a character that paints India in a good light because that market is rescuing us at the moment with subscriber numbers.

        Meh!

          LT42 When I realised there was 40 minutes to go I just turned it off.

          Lol!

            Wally Chris Evans was amusing to a point

            I had a massive night out with him years ago, he was painfully boring.

            KLANG.

              Watched the first 10 mins of The Grey Man, before fucking it off. Torturously bad. A film for thickets.

              The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Starts off brilliantly, and they could’ve done a much better job - basically Nicholas Cage playing himself. Turn into a right load of old shit with a few funny bits. 3/10

              Homegrove Interesting you say that, as about half way through I suspected it might be directed by someone who’s been involved in Marvel films due to the near constant explosions and wafer-thin dialogue.

                  I’ll never understand how people will watch a movie from start to finish and then decide at the end “that was shit.” Just walk away.
                  If you found an eyeball in the bottom of your pint you wouldn’t sink the whole lot and decide it tasted a bit off.

                  mono-stereo their Marvel-movies are great though, best in that genre. Not even entertained the idea of watching their other work. They came up in the business directing Arrested Developement and Community, and were great at both. But then the one season of Community they were showrunners for when Dan Harmon was fired sucks, so maybe Wally is right and they don’t have any good ideas of their own.

                    You can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear.

                    Revolutionary Road

                    Sam Mendes does his own take on a Sam Mendes film, featuring the permanently middle aged Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio playing a typical Leonardo DiCaprio character.

                    I hate all of these people and it has all the hallmarks of a crap film, but it kept my attention for 2 hours late on a Monday night.

                    Watchable long flight fodder. ⅗

                      mono-stereo The anti-Titanic movie. Quite a depressing watch. Thought it was good, but I would never do it again.

                        Titane. French, dark, horrible and very uncomfortable watch. Up there with Possum. 8/10

                        I watched The Big Short again just before. Should’ve swapped the order. Why a cracking film that is.

                        You just put me right off that Grant mate.

                        A far more easy watch was on the cards for my Saturday evening’s entertainment.

                        Voyagers (2021)
                        This is so badly rated that it must in some objective sense be genuinely shit, but I’m going to say that it was a perfectly decent entry in the lord-of-the-flies-on-a-space-ship genre, featuring some interesting actors: Colin Farrell (legend) Tye Sheridan (future legend) and (daughter of Vanessa & Johnny) Lily-Rose Depp (tidy).

                        I liked it, you probably won’t unless you’re stoned off your tits and just looking for something silly and fun unlike Grant who seems to only like watching dark shit that makes his flesh creep.

                        7.5/10
