Rambo - Last Blood
I like SS and was looking forward to this. There was a polite nod towards a plot and then Rambo just kills everyone with extreme prejudice. No surprises there. They should probably have tortured Rambo a bit more before letting him off the leash. It felt a little hurried and the OTT murdering reminded me of John Wick 3 but it's much less shit.
Really underlined the need for a proper border wall in the states as well. Those Mexicans are well dodgy. #MAGA

Had originally planned to see JoJo Rabbit this afternoon but it was a bit grey to head out. Instead caught up one of Taika Waititi's earlier films, Hunt for the Wildepeople which has been on my to-watch list for years. Excellent film in so many ways, the Mrs and I were absorbed by it, absolutely recommended.
Re: The Movie Thread
Uncut Gems is in Netflix now.
Holy actual shit. Strap yourself in and get it watched!

Re: The Movie Thread
What’s amazing is that Netflix have given him $275m to make another 4 films.

You can’t put a price on greatness, but if you did it would be $275m for 4 filmsNotoriousREV wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 10:09 pmWhat’s amazing is that Netflix have given him $275m to make another 4 films.
How about not having a sig at all?

Re: The Movie Thread
That did get great reviews across the board tbf. Many citing Sandlers performance in particular.
Re: The Movie Thread
I think Sandler is brilliant in it and that’s coming from someone who is well aware that 99% of his output since Punch Drunk Love has been utter horse shit. Uncut Gems goes at 100 mph from the start to the end and ratchets up the (nervous & excitable) tension to incredible levels.
I quite enjoyed Ad Astra too and Joker was amazing.

Re: The Movie Thread
I watched this the other night. Very good in many ways.... a little bit unexciting but the way its shot makes up for that part. Deffo worth seeing just for the experience.NotoriousREV wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2020 8:13 pmI think Dunkirk was better. But 1917 is still very good and you should definitely watch it.Swervin_Mervin wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2020 8:06 pmWas going to ask how it compared to 1917, as I thought Dunkirk was greatNotoriousREV wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2020 6:17 pm
I did, I thought it was really good at the time, but I can’t remember any of it other than the worlds glidiest Spitfire now. I’ll have to watch it again.
Re: The Movie Thread
Really enjoyed Uncut Gems. One of Adam Sandler’s once a decade good movies.
An absolute unit
Re: The Movie Thread
Uncut Gems was bold, brave and impressive but I wouldn't say I enjoyed it or would ever want to see it again.
Joker was better than I expected and I expected quite a lot given the hype. Brilliant really.

Hobbs & Shaw was pretty good if you like the Fast & Furious movies.
I can’t think of many other decent action movies last year.
Polar was pretty cheesy but Mads Mikkelson was good in it.

Re: The Movie Thread
+1 for Terminator six, after a brief Marvelesque fight scene between the superpowered protagonists it gets back to grittier action which I really enjoyed.
Finally saw Star Wars IX and did quite enjoy it, didn't have massive expectations, there was one moment that made me sit up an think they were going to go some interesting places before everyone donned their plot armour again and it worked its way to a decidedly obvious conclusion. Good, but not great and could've done with about 20min less of Maguffin hunting and the Empire's First Last and Only Order being stupid.
