Pelé doco on Netflix. Would have liked to have seen a bit more about him at Santos and Cosmos and his personal life, but interesting to see the back drop to his world cup appearances. The footage from Mexico 70 is gorgeous, I love seeing footy shot and edited by a cinematic director.

Four CIA backed dictatorships out of five.

City of God. Wonderful re-watch. Absolute stone-cold classic, if you’ve not seen it, sort yourself out. 10/10

    Over the weekend showcased to the kids Trainspotting and French Connection. Talk about living the cinematic dream.

    The Matrix… is this held up as a classic of some sort? If so, why? It’s bloody dreadful - wooden acting and a continuous stream of cheesy lines. The effects are looking very outdated too. 5/10

      Jules72 It was brilliant at the time. If you want to see something truly awful, watch the two sequels - absolute fucking tripe

      Jules72 it drastically changed the game. Wooden acting and cheesy lines are just par the course in blockbuster sci fi.

      Introduced my 13 year old son to The Matrix recently and he loved it. I didn’t mention there were any sequels, obviously. I’m trying to get him to appreciate films that don’t exist in the MCU

        Millsy Scum’s a good one too Millsy. That’ll help the lad stay on the straight and narrow.

        Where’s your fuckin tool?

        Cracking film

        Saint Maud is possibly the biggest steaming turd that i have watched in a long time. gutted that i paid £4.49 to watch it on amazon rather than an illegal stream. paying for it was the only reason it stayed on as long as it did 0.5/10

          Ha semi enjoyed Maud…. Oh well different strokes for different folks

          I liked it. Thought it was massively overpraised though.

          Critics also hated Armageddon, which is the greatest documentary of all time, so I don’t trust their words anymore.
