The Roses (Disney+)
That was... Odd, to say the least. Remake of the 1989 War of the Roses, this time featuring Olivia Colman and Benelux Snozzcumber.
I don't know what it tried for, apart from remaking another film, but it didn't carry much with it, and came across as very shallow. Pegged as a "dark comedy", but mostly it was just swearing and weirdness, rather than funny. Best bit was the very end where it, *just*, managed to tie it together.
4/10 stunning seaviews.

Re: The Movie Thread
Yeah, I enjoyed this yesterday evening. Surprisingly grim and gory in places (I didn't know Sam Raimi directed so that explains it) but well made and well acted and a great endingAscender wrote: Mon Apr 20, 2026 11:59 am Send Help - Sam Raimi-directed movie about two coworkers (one douchebag boss-bro and an overlooked-for-promotion woman) who are stuck on a deserted island is also utterly excellent and now on streaming.
