It was alright, great cast but the muddy cg visuals that are becoming standard for this type of movie really detracted from it imo.

Ancient alien tropes could do with disappearing too.
This. It was a bit meh, but as ever the fun from these films is in seeing where they cross over after the fact - introductory films are never all that in the MCU any more.

I'm going to watch Eternals tonight as it got a bit of a panning, but to me just sounds like a middle of the road Marvel movie so will probably be worth a watch and reasonably enjoyable.
Cheers,

Mike.

Eternals was a bit of a shocker. Big(ish) cast but flat, I can't put my finger on it but the story was long winded and just a bit dull.

Ray Donovan The Movie.

If you watched all the series this really was very good. Had you not then it's exceptionally poor and won't make any sense.

Showtime live isn't on Amazon UK?

I can't see it anywhere legal to watch it here yet, unless I'm missing something 🤷‍♂️

There's many early release reviews in this thread. Look and you can find most things.

As for this, unless you like Ray, give it a swerve.

I see your inability to answer simple questions is getting worse Broccers :lol:

Pig

Nicolas Cage goes on a hunt for his stolen truffle pig.

Considering his recent output I was expecting something like John Wick but it was way more low key than that. It was very good.

Nic Cage and very good are not two words I usually put together. Did he play a pensive retard?

He's got about a 5 to 1 ratio of utter garbage, to actually really watchable stuff lately.

When Nicolas Cage is good he's very good, he just also does a lot of shite to fund his ridiculous lifestyle. A bit like DeNiro.

I've always been a fan. You really have to take his output at (pensive retard) face value. But then I'm also a fan of silly stuff, so Mandy, Ghost Rider, Drive Angry, Mom and Dad were already going to be well up my street anyway.

watch "History of Swear Words" on Netflix - you'll like Nic Cage after. Guaran-fucking-teed.
