Love The Boys and can’t wait to see what they do in S2. Gets a bit too chaotic at the end, but there’s quite an interesting twist too. Elizabeth Shue, still a honey.

Sinner season 3 was really poor in comparison to the previous seasons. Could have been finished in three episodes. The episode where he is chasing him round New York is appalling and goes massively down hill

So just stop watching the Sinner after Season 2 👍

The Old Guard is coming tomorrow, a comic book movie starring Charlize Theron. It seems to be a rare thing, where Empire shit on it in their review, but the RT score is 92 now.

I’ll watch it anyway, because you know. Charlize. I even endured Young Adult for her, which while good, was really hard to watch if you don’t enjoy cringe.

    Homegrove I didn’t mind the romcom she did with Seth Rogan a couple years back.

    Saw her in person in LA once, she’s very tall.

    Yeah, that was fun hangover-movie. The part where she solved a major crisis on drugs was amazing. Long Shot I think it was called.

    Wagwahn. Is man knowing Top Boy is actually season free innit?? First two seasons is Top Boy:Summerhouse.
    I’ve just ‘acquired’ a series called Trust directed by the the same guy as Top Boy and Danny Boyle. The Getty family are the storyline.

    Homegrove As a rule Empire shit on Netflix films - they are total ‘cinema is the only true way’ types - So you can probably add a star at least - it’s got a 70 meta critic score so can’t be that bad.

    Same for any movie based on a computer game - admittedly they are mostly shite but Empire tend to down mark them a fair bit anyway.

      Hadn’t noticed that. And I’ve been reading since 2005. 😂

      Wally Empire sold out decades ago - their reviews are a fucking abomination. Absolute tripe.

        Wally Really? Did it really get 4 stars? Fuck me. 😂

        Not seen it mind.

          Homegrove Went to the flicks to see it - The first one is, by any reasonable metric, shite. But it’s got a certain charm about it and I think the first hour with the build up to the aliens appearing and then nuking everything is handled well for what it is so why not I thought! Four stars from empire and two hours away from the kids. Lets go. <gets popcorn>

          Oh.

          ID:R is without question, the worst movie I’ve seen at the flicks in 20 years. IIRC, Empire had Roland Emmerich guest edit the issue before so had to give it a good score or something. The sellout cunts.

          I think that’s part of their ‘cinema is the one true way’ thing. I think after working there for ages, some of them really are matey (or more likely they just want to be) with various hollywood types so they shove their tongue up the arse of some right garbage to not piss anyone off.

            Wally They sold out so long ago - it’s unreadable. Unless it gives a good review to a film I like.

            Anyone watching the Trade on Sky? On episode 3. Very immersive portrayal of the Mexican drugs trade and the rise of heroin in the suburban America

            Watched the first two episodes this week although it’s not on my Netflix but sky documentaries. I didn’t know they made heroin in Mexico either.

            I kinda agree with Empire with Old Guard. Theron is awesome with action, but other than that it had very little good in it. The young woman playing Nile was really pretty though.
