Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted January 8, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 8, 2020 You know Jojo Rabbit is essentially a film based on a child’s experience in WW2. That’s why it’s got some silly shit right? 1 trick pony? I’ve yet to see Boy, but seen everything else, and other then the fact they all have comedic moments, I don’t agree with him being a 1 trick pony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TildeGuy~! Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Burning It’s a Korean film I added to my DVD collection this afternoon so I decided to watch it as soon as I got home, weird to see Steven Yeun(Walking Dead) play such a mysterious character throughout, it’s a slow burner but picks up as soon as he appears and just has you wondering up until the end as well as afterwards.

Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted January 8, 2020 Awards Moderator Share Posted January 8, 2020 Thunder Road was added to Netflix recently. We watched it tonight - what a brilliantly written and performed film with Jim Cummings (who, as well as writing and acting, directed the thing!) as a man on the edge of a breakdown trying his best to get through it. Full, complex characters that feel so complete and really make you care about them. All recommendations to Thunder Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Yeah I watched this over the Christmas period. Really good film with an excellent performance. Funny yet sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 9, 2020 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 9, 2020 The Informer Quite enjoyed this. I don't think much of Joel Kinnaman as a lead and this would have benefitted from someone with actual charisma in the lead, plus Ana de Armas doesn't get much to do. But it's second half is a really good prison thriller with a quality ending. Worth tracking down, wish I'd gone to see it at the cinema. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted January 9, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 9, 2020 It's amazing that Joel Kinnaman is so bland he can still come off as dry in a film with Clive Owen in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he made Owen look animated in this. Still enjoyed it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't even feel like a De Palma film, which always disappointed me. The original is fabulous though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members DEF Posted January 10, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 10, 2020 De Palma's Scarface is a exploitation film that some how managed to be perceived as classic drama. As long as you're into that kind of thing it's pretty bloody brilliant but it's definitely an acquired taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 The sound track is banging and it inspired one of the greatest video games ever made but yeah, despite being every rappers favourite film it's a bit shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
