Mr_Danger Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I thought Widows was a completely average film across the board. The four ladies characters were under developed and the heist was a bit lame. Shame, considering all involved I'd have expected better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 10 hours ago, Devon Malcolm said: I don't think it has as much scope for a follow-up on the Netflix romcom stakes as To All the Boys I've Loved Before, but Set It Up was still way better than expected. Zoey Deutch is great but even Lucy Liu was really good and she often isn't. Really good stuff. She’s great isn’t she? She was in a really decent film called Flower that came out last year that is well worth a watch. She looks so much like her mum, which is obviously no bad thing.

Didn't actually know she was Lea Thompson's daughter until a few weeks ago but you can totally see it. On a different note, Happy Death Day 2U is GREAT. A genuine improvement on the original (which was also really fun) by being a bit sillier, a bit funnier, doing more with support characters, and leaving more scope for rewatches. Just keep making them, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted February 13, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 13, 2019 I was going to see Lego 2 but I missed it so I went to see Free Solo instead. Bit of a dodgy decision because I'm terrified of heights and I was really stoned. I ended up watching the whole thing with my hood up so the really old man next to me couldn't see that I was nearly in tears from how terrifying I found it. Still enjoyed it though, in a scary roller coaster kind of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Star is born- very overrated was expecting a masterpiece with all the hype and it fell well short for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewster McCloud Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 A Ghost Story. One of the most boring films I've ever seen. It's a 15 minute short at best, stretched out to beyond breaking point. It's literally a bloke in a sheet. It's not often I check my phone while I'm watching a film at home, but I did during this. Bunch of pretentious arse. It sucked, dudes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted February 15, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2019 Rewatched Reality Bites yesterday and it's a bit shit really, isn't it. If it wasn't for Winona it would be completely worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted February 15, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2019 Been watching a few Spencer Tracy / Katharine Hepburn films recently, and I think Woman of the Year is my favourite. Due in part to this amazing scene:- It actually goes on for a bit longer after her and Tracy get into it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewster McCloud Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 If we're talking great moments from old black and white films, I think this Jimmy Stewart moment might just be the best thing ever, from Harvey: Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted February 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2019 I enjoyed the H out of Can You Ever Forgive Me?. It's very funny and McCarthy and REG have such fine chemistry that I'd love to see them together in another film. Absolutely goes by in no time. Burning is, obviously, a different change of pace, but it's a decent effort. Wasn't overly keen on a section of the film (middle/last 3rd), felt that could have been tightened.

King Pitcos Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I'm such a philistine, I can't watch black and white films. The only one I can tolerate at all is Night of the Living Dead, and even then only if it's playing on a TV for a few seconds in another film.
