Rate The Last Movie you Watched

watched spun last night for the first time since it came out, thought it was pretty good still.

Life of Crime - free on Curzon12. One to appease the missus, but actually enjoyed it - silly kidnap caper with Tim Robbins and a pretty good Jennifer Anniston. 6.5/10

Spotlight was as good as I remembered. Few movies that are two hours long, and where very little happens, fly by like that. It’s either the script, or just very good editing.

Homegrove Spotlight

Directed by The Wire’s most loathsome character:

Eventually watched Infernal Affairs. Absolute cracker of a film - definitely disappointed that Scorsese simply stole the story for The Departed. 9/10

Are the sequels much cop?

The Hurricane - 9/10.

Denzel is magnificent in this. Haven’t seen for nearly 20 years, and despite knowing how it turns out, I still had something stuck in my eye in the final scenes…

vinnyt77 The Hurricane

I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. And I’m a huge Denzel guy. Have to give it a go. Based in Paterson, NJ no less. Done some trainings out there. Proper dump of a town but I enjoyed my stays. Speaking of, watched this not too long ago…

Excellent flick. Tarantino put it on his top 10 for the 2010’s. Think it was Tony Scott’s last film.

8/10

Tarantino did the Rewatchables podcast reviewing Unstoppable. Tried to watch it but struggled. Felt way too stylised.

I rewatached Unstoppable recently too and while I did enjoy it still, the camera constantly whizzing round the train cabin really got on my tits. I know that’s Tony Scott but it annoyed me more in this than many of his others.

rhouses

Phil-McRackin Yeah exactly that. Plus I couldn’t do a whole movie of that 00’s dark greenish action-thriller colour scheme.

Eden Lake: Horror, slasher movie about a bunch of diabolical chavs, most of whom are dressed how I imagine Comer dresses. Quite a few gruesome scenes and frightening cat and mouse moments. Fassbender is surprisingly cheesy in it, rookie work. Kelly Reilly (what a honey) is very good in it though, as are all the kids playing the chavs. The last 10 minutes are some of the most chilling and confusing moments I’ve experienced in a movie like this. 8.⅒

rhouses The last 10 minutes are some of the most chilling and confusing moments I’ve experienced in a movie like this as I dropped a nug of weed down the back of the cushion on my mobility scooter and accidently put the bloody thing into reverse with my arse as I twisted round to fish it out.

Eden Lake is a bit of a hidden gem imo.

rhouses

uff.

C_J In the comfort of my own home CJ, none of the nonsense I face in the cinema.

The missus was especially freaked by Eden Lake, said there were all of those sorts (the chavs) around the McDonalds near the hotel she was staying when she was on business trips to England. Found a lot of those loud bratty kids very intimidating, most of them probably wouldn’t think twice about stabbing random people.

rhouses Definitely mate, she is very lucky to have survived tbh.

C_J Scary times CJ, but the bacon cheese burgers were worth it.

Flares

If Christopher Nolan did kitchen sink dramas that one.

Along_the_Wire

A White, White Day. Grim, pedestrian Icelandic number and sometimes a bit silly. 6/10

Homegrove

Missus wanted to watch the original Alien. Happy to oblige, though I was worried how well it would work with my hangover. I’ve seen it several times before, yet the last 30 minutes were still pretty intense.

Homegrove Alien

Are you Alien or Aliens, Hannu? I cannot for the life of me ever decide. Both are tremendous. But feel like we need a consensus.
