Bernstein was a genius! Would like to see the new one. Defo watch it - I had forgotten how many great songs there are, also the dancing is fab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the first one and really enjoyed it, but thought that this one was a very poor follow up. I didn't influence her view and her opinion was that it was ok. Looking forward to watching Belfast very soon as funnily enough just checked the other night to see if it was on my firestick and pleased to see it is.

Sing 2 is defo not as good as the first one - I went with my 25 year old daughter to see it You'll enjoy Belfast - it's quite funny nothing much happens but easy watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_widdows Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Went to see 'Licorice Pizza' last weekend. Peaked my interest as it had less chance of NEDS showing up to see it plus its same director as 'Punch Drunk Love' Thought it was very good. Great soundtrack too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elgindon Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Havent watched a Western for years but saw 3.10 to Yuma last night(Russell Crowe,Christian Bale). Very good. Kept our attention start to finish. 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 Finally saw Dune last night. Loved it and looking forward to the follow on films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I know Dune is just the opening film but I found it pretty dull and slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted August 20, 2022 Author Share Posted August 20, 2022 Watched Belfast tonight. Cheesier than I thought it’d be and maybe less of the troubles than I thought too. Decent enough watch but was glad it was on a streaming app. Not sure id have paid for it in the cinema. Being in b/w was a nice touch though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldie03 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Not really a film but I was at the cinema last week to see Prima Facie, live broadcast from the National Theatre. It was outstanding, Jodie Comer was utterly fantastic, would recommend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Finally got round to seeing the new top gun. Loved it. Cheesy as hell, but what else would you expect? One of the characters association with the original was a wee bit tenuous, but hey ho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc_don Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 Ford vs Ferrari, was surprised I hadn’t actually seen it yet but was a really good watch. Ford shown up to be the corporate scheisters that we know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldie03 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Out of the Oscar films this year what did folk think of Everythng Everywhere all at Once? Not really for me tbh, I saw Tar, The Fablemans, Aftersun, Women Talking, Close and still to watch The Whale and All Quiet on the Western Front Working from home and the Filmhouse closing has curtailed my cinema going a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Started watching Elvis on Sky Premier the other night, the missus and myself both gave up on it after 50 minutes. Thought it was truly awful Watched "Where The Crawdads Sing" as it was billed as a crime thriller. Having watched it I'm not really sure I'd agree with the description, more of a mystery romance, but have to say I did really enjoy it and it obviously appealed to the sentimental side of my nature. Daisy Edgar-Jones was outstanding in the lead role as Kya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc_don Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 Watched banshees of Inisherin on the weekend. I didn’t mind it. Wife thought it was too slow but amusing. One to watch on tv and not in the cinemas I’d say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
