1/10 Fucking tripe
Its proper trash, but I’ve quite enjoyed it so far (been watching it on train journeys, 20 mins to go).
The amount of stupid decisions by supposedly highly trained people is too damn high :lol:
All it needed was Jeremy Renner to finish it off

Disappointing to see Oscar Issac in it, then again $80m budget..

"Fucking tripe" is harsh on Triple Frontier. I'd give it a solid 3/5 as it passed the time but as with many fils and tv shows, it needed to resort to intelligent people having to do dumb things to manufacture jeopardy.

Wes Anderson is a bona fide genius and I love his stuff. Fantastic Mr Fox is well up there, some fantastic moments in it. I'm always surprised that more people haven't seen Grand Budapest Hotel as that seemed to be a big breakthrough moment for him in to the mainstream, even going by the box office numbers.

The Royal Tenenbaums was pretty big too, that was the film that got me into his stuff. I didn’t see it in the cinema, but got to see all the ones after it.

The Man Who Killed Hitler And Then The Bigfoot - Sam Elliot is brilliant as always and its a curious, enjoyable movie although. 3 mangey, cloth-eared Bigfoots out of 5.

Spider-Man in to the Spider-Verse - One of the most visually stunning movies I've seen in a long time and it was bloody good fun too. Great sound-track, very funny, the time flew by. 5 sticky white messes out of 5. I know what you're thinking, but honestly, well worth checking out.

That white sticky messes is the yardstick for a different category of films?

Did leave me thinking there's no way you'd get away with even 1/10th of that behaviour these days - they had far too much fun :lol: . 7.5/10.
Another thumbs up for 'The Dirt' on Netflix, how they've avoided Savile type accusations I don't know 😂

The Spiderman is also a sex move, so there's a bit of a crossover there.

I thought Scandinavians were supposed to be more liberal than us Brits when it comes to sex?

Doesn't mean we know every "move" dreamed up by the repressed stiff upper lip types.
