  • Rate The Last Movie you Watched

Challengers: Watched this with the normies in a regular cinema hall. It’s a decent tennis movie, and I’m not going to lie, did not get bored and was keen to see how the wonky af love triangle played out. Confused about the soundtrack, most of it I was thinking they were pandering to the cheeseball EDM Euphoria generation, gimmicky and over bearing. But sometimes it worked. The tennis is ok (not even close to as real as King Richard), the acting ok. All of you will hate the ending (I saw it coming, but it worked for me). Good movie to watch with the missus (she said much better than fall guy, but not great). Don’t think I’ll watch again, but I guess there’s a lot of connect the dots in the dialogue. Preferred Zendaya in Dune, but she’s got charisma in this.

6.8 / 10

    Fall Guy.

    Fucking awful. I’d score it even lower than rhouses. When you have the dog bites man’s genitals gag 8 x in a movie you know they are desperate. Watched this to kill time before flying back to London and feel I’ve aged a decade in 2 hours. Avoid.

        The term normies pissed me off.

        Unless by normies he means people who can lay a cable without destroying the bog, it doesn’t come across very well

            Wasily Thank God I didn’t pay the full price for the ticket.

              rhouses we have those too here, sans waiters. It’s fucking stupid. Eat at home.

                It was an obvious pisstake MC. I initially went with muggles (but wrong crowd).

                All I want is a big screen, and great sound and I’m pretty happy. In Finland we have just one IMAX, which I do want to experience one day. But it’s in Helsinki naturally. We got a new big theatre in Turku recently, but they went the food and lazy boy-seating route, so fuck them.

                Does UK have any Dolby-theatres? We don’t, and I’m a big in the dark how that differs from IMAX.

                  Mad_Cyril we have two iSense-screens here in Turku. Didn’t know that was a thing outside of Finland. It’s plenty enough for me usually.

                    Mad_Cyril Meant to add I don’t know the difference, but there’s some explanations of each type on that page

                    Just discovered there’s one near me, so will endeavour to check out - has Planet of The Apes on at the minute so don’t think it will be immediately!

                        Mad_Cyril it’s been surprisingly well reviewed, but I think it’s going to be Disney+ for me with that one.

                        Furiosa is out soon, and at least Edgar Wright raved about it. It seems if you liked Fury Road (which I LOVED, great home theatre test movie too) it’s a good one too. Should give any theatre’s sound a good run.

                            Homegrove Hoping to get signed back into work soon, so free days are running out. If I get signed off next week as well will make the trip anyway as going insane at home!
