    Spotlight. One of the more sickening movies I've watched given it is based on actual events. How anyone takes the Catholic church seriously anymore is beyond me. 4.5 sick-as-fuck priests out of 5 investigative journalists.

    @No-Quarter I had a client who was working with the victims of a priest in Levin, at first there were only three after he got convicted another dozen or so victims came forward.

    Re: Spotlight - I went to intermediate with some of the kids that were abused in Hamilton. I'm not going to go into details here but the consequences of that abuse was quite tragic.

    Sitting through the trailer each time I watched Rogue One was bad enough.

    TR Jnr has been begging to go to that, maybe I'll get his Granny to take him or I'll make him wait for it to come out on DVD!

    Green Room.

    This movie was getting good reviews so I thought I better check it out. An interesting premise about a punk band ending up playing in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnessing a murder at a neo-nazi skinhead bar. The bar owner is played by Prof X in a role against type. The suspense in the movie is based on the band being stuck in a room with no idea of their fate, and what is on the other side of the door, until they realise they need to escape. In the end it's an OK slasher/thriller with plenty of dumb people. Except for Amber - she had some balls (metaphorically speaking).

    3 red laces out of 5 red laces.

    @Bovidae I've been wondering if that was any good after I saw them singing that Dead Kennedys song to the nazis on YouTube.

    Anyone seen war dogs? I watched in on a plane recently, classic Jonah Hill in a movie directed by Todd Phillips. A strong 4 faulty rounds of Chinese AK47 ammunition out of 5

    @canefan I find Jonah Hill to be one of the most annoying "actors" out there so ignore his movies like the plague.
