Review the last film you watched

[kmart]

Some parts were laugh out loud funny, the teabagging springs to mind.

Id give it a 7

Watched it last night. I'm still slightly traumatized by the elephant scene.

Like a lot of Cohen's stuff, certain scenes make your toes curl a bit, but mostly thought it a was a larf-riot. Lewd, crude and unpretentious, and very funny.

9/10.

[Airportwo]

^I'm still traumatised by the whole movie! Lewd, crude and in somewhat bad taste! but amusing, worth a 7.

I wouldn't call it traumatised.

Bored shitless maybe.

What a pile of shite.

2/10. Again, only because I want to leave some wiggle room.

[Bettyboo]

I have to agree with 'Arry, movie for retarded 8-year-olds and Northerners.

0/10

[Airportwo]

^ That explains why I was able to give it a 7, I'm a "Northerner"

[Bettyboo]

^ Certainly a rip roaring comedy for tough Northern folks, for us sensitive Southerners there were endless scenes that just went too far; in fact the entire film was in terribly taste. Dil would love it...

[Airportwo]

^Aye lad, just a normal day in Barnsley

Watched The Martian 2015. A crew member tries to survive after his crew mates left him behind

Good humour, good music, great moments. And a few "we can all get along better, together" moments.

"During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet. With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive. Millions of miles away, NASA and a team of international scientists work tirelessly to bring "the Martian" home, while his crewmates concurrently plot a daring, if not impossible, rescue mission. As these stories of incredible bravery unfold, the world comes together to root for Watney's safe return."

Not a bad translation of an excellent book.

I thought the book was much better.

So did I.

Hence "not bad" as opposed to "excellent".

I notice he's been relegated to scrounging off Netflix as well....

I go the same 9/10. Pissed myself laughing.

"Warcraft" (2016, English w/ Thai subtitles).
I'm not a gamer nor is this type of movie high on my viewing agenda. The visual effects were good and the muscular , warring characters with "big underbites and large hands" were well done and played.

The two Thais (age 20 and 39) that accompanied me said it was "Good" (3) on the Great-Very Good-Good-Not Good-Bad (5 -1 scale) ; they are not gamers or Warcraft followers either.

Supposedly this film did very well on it's opening weekend in Int'l box offices. Assuredly if you are a follower of Warcraft or a fiction gamer it may well appeal to you with or without popcorn.

It gets great reviews on imdb. Tell those 2 Thais to buy their own fukkin tickets next time

"Hardcore Henry"

Extremely violent. Filmed to look like a 1st person video game, this follows 1 insanely savage day in the life of a newly-activated cyborg, right from being initiated and activated from surgery.
The violence is staggering, hilarious and pretty original, it must be said. But the flimsy plot tends to erode your attention after a while.
Tim Roth has a nominal part in the film, but Sharlto Copley is good as the multi-personality avatar guiding Henry on his rampage around Moscow.
Worth a watch, if you're in the mood to kill someone. 6/10.

[Dillinger]

^ i watchsd that in bed last night, turned it off after about 40 minutes. It did seem like watching a video game, a shit repetitive borefest like that fukking Duke Nukem Forever

5/10

[harrybarracuda]

I watched Black Sea the other day - not a bad Jude Law performance as captain of a band of bandits looking for Nazi gold in the Baltic sea.

Had its moments but ultimately a little contrived and an unsatisfying ending.

5/10.

It was no. 8 in 2015's gross box office. Minions was 6. Anybody hear of that movie, let alone if there is there a review of it here?

I don't base my personal opinions of movies on what other people think of them.

You have newspaper reviews if your tiny little brain is incapable of forming its own opinion.

"Hardcore Henry"

I watched a Russian version of that a couple of months ago; have the Yamericans copied so quickly... I turned it off after 20 mins as it just seemed like a shoot 'em up video game.

Anyways, I watched Gods of Egypt last night, and enjoyed it. Some beautiful ladies in it, and some half clad men for Dilly to ogle.










& for Dilly:

[kmart]

^The "Hardcore Henry" film is credited with Russian directors / producers etc. English speaking cast though.?

Anyway, thanks for the "Gods Of Egypt" heads up, BB. It's on my internet box already.
-Looks like decent eye candy if nothing else. I do like a well-padded Sphinxter.

[Bettyboo]

The top lady is really beautiful - fall in love material, but it's also a really good film; I was surprised.
