Tyrant Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 3 Billboards was really good. I thought the ending was a wee bit open-ended which some people like I guess. Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted March 14, 2018 Report Posted March 14, 2018 3 Billboards was really good. I thought the ending was a wee bit open-ended which some people like I guess. Indeed, made me think we may see a sequel, I really hope we do, I genuinely loved the film, everything about it, especially Sam Rockwell. Quote
Goldie03 Posted March 16, 2018 Report Posted March 16, 2018 What a brilliant film! Thoroughly enjoyed it, lots of laughs, thanks for the tip Hadnt realised what a good cast it was How good is Jason Isaacs I saw A Fantastic Woman last night - really good, well worthy of an oscar Quote
manc_don Posted March 16, 2018 Author Report Posted March 16, 2018 How good is Jason Isaacs I saw A Fantastic Woman last night - really good, well worthy of an oscar Had I not seen 3 Billboards within a week, i'd have said it was the best film i'd seen in a long time. But yeah he was awesome as was Steve Buscemi (always rated him as an actor). Loved the death scene, hilarious Quote
Goldie03 Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 Manc check out I Tonya - I really liked it Quote
manc_don Posted March 28, 2018 Author Report Posted March 28, 2018 Manc check out I Tonya - I really liked it Haha I think I recommended that to you a few months back, I was pleasantly surprised by it! Very relevant given that American did the same move for the first time since she did it. Also watched Battle of the sexes around the same time. Recommend that too, especially since you're a big tennis fan. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 Aye I Tonya was good. Watching The Shape of Water tonight or tomorrow. Quote
Goldie03 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Aye I Tonya was good. Watching The Shape of Water tonight or tomorrow. I absolutely loved The Shape of Water Battle of the Sexes is great. Have you seen Molly's Game Manc? Loved that too, Jessica Chastain was fab Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Went back and watched an old favourite of mine, called Narc, with Ray Liotta and Jason Patric, watched it when it first came out and thought it was just as good when I watched last night again. Definitely recommend. Quote
manc_don Posted March 29, 2018 Author Report Posted March 29, 2018 Molly’s game and shape of water are now on the list Quote
rocket_scientist Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 The Shape of Water is possibly one of the most beautiful films ever made. I can't think of any that are richer in allegory. It won't appeal to everyone. Possibly not even the majority. But I loved it. First 10/10 for such a long time, I can't remember the last one. Stunning. Quote

Wow my thoughts exactly - it was exquisite Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted April 11, 2018 Report Posted April 11, 2018 Sweet Virginia Watched at work last night and it was a decent enough watch, 6/10, stars Jon Bernthal. Quote
tom_widdows Posted April 15, 2018 Report Posted April 15, 2018 Went to see 'Ghost Stories' last night Seen a few people slagging it off but I enjoyed it. I've been put off horror films in the last decade or so since the yanks saturated the genre with same monotonous shite emphasising gore and stupidity but this one played to what I consider to be good horror Build atmosphere, imply the horror rather than just shoving a CGI monster onto the screen, keep you guessing, and also make it at least seem as if the situation could happen to you. As it was split into segments with different aspects it didn't get boring. The 2nd 'story' in particular stuck out for me Martin Freeman has been pissing me off with his Vodafone adverts but he was back on form in this one. Quote
manc_don Posted April 20, 2018 Author Report Posted April 20, 2018 Wow, what a film a shape of water was. Thanks for recommendation both, thoroughly enjoyed that. Definitely not one for everyone but it was a beautiful bit of film. Quote
Lencarl Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 https://youtu.be/20M-vNqAjx0 Looking forward to viewing Venom...looks interesting. Quote
manc_don Posted April 30, 2018 Author Report Posted April 30, 2018 Saw the new Avengers film on the weekend. Loved it. A lot of laugh out loud moments. Obviously not deep or meaningful, beyond the point that the world needs saving and folk need to come together, but a great film nonetheless. Quote
manc_don Posted May 11, 2018 Author Report Posted May 11, 2018 The Breaker upperer's, not sure it'll come out in the UK, but a new Kiwi film. Very kiwi and very funny. If you've watched a few kiwi films of late, you'll recognise some of the cast. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted May 18, 2018 Report Posted May 18, 2018 Saw Fargo last night for the first time, the 1996 version with Steve Buscemi and Frances McDormand. What a heavy mindfuck in parts but thoroughly enjoyable. Quote
manc_don Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Posted May 19, 2018 Saw Fargo last night for the first time, the 1996 version with Steve Buscemi and Frances McDormand. What a heavy mindfuck in parts but thoroughly enjoyable. Brilliant film and thoroughly dark. The series wasn’t bad either. Watched American Folk tonight, well shot and a good story. Not a thought provoker but a nice watch nonetheless. Ask me food comical moments despite being part of a sad story. Quote
manc_don Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Posted June 22, 2018 Watched cardinal tonight. What a fucking waste of time. Quote
BigAl Posted June 25, 2018 Report Posted June 25, 2018 The Commuter summed up in two words....... Just Awful Quote
manc_don Posted July 9, 2018 Author Report Posted July 9, 2018 Finally got round to watching isle of dogs. What a wonderfully bizarre film. Wasn’t for the mrs, but I enjoyed it. Quote
donsdaft Posted July 22, 2018 Report Posted July 22, 2018 I don’t watch films much. Even then when I try it they usually only last about 5-10 minutes. Watching Casablanca just now. Pure genius Quote
