It's easy to forget, but Pulp Fiction is absolute genius

@mariner4life Have you seen Siodmak's/Hemingway's The Killers? It was an influence to say the least ...
Don Siegel's version likewise. Highlight is Ronald Reagan slapping the hell out of Angie Dickinson.

Sorry @Tim i have not
But watching again tonight, it's a piece of art. The shots are brilliant, the dialogue unique, the soundtrack perfect.
Given the cinematic climate these days will we ser it's like again?

I'm going to back Virgil up here - Logan was fucking excellent.
5 out of 5 henchmen brutally stabbed through the fucking head.
I asked Mrs CF if she wanted to go, she said nah. Oh well, might have to organise a boys night

To celebrate the second Deadpool on it's way, I watched the first.
Fucking loved it. Sensational dialogue, nasty fighting, girls and boys kicking ass, sweet romance, hardcore violence and gore, some shitarse jokes that made me snort laugh. Carnage to 80's music (Angel of the Morning will never be the same.) Don't think Ryan Reynolds has ever been so perfect for a role. Even the opening and closing credits were funny.

(Honestly, nothing I can say will prepare you for the amount of head stabbing goodness in this film)
Just got back from it, just doesn't get any better than this. Easily the best X Men film I've seen, and finally get to see Wolverine in all his stabby glory.
Really nailed the story, great acting, and the right touch of humour. Fucking great.

Thought Patrick Stewart was hilarious.
But mostly I chuckled at the level of violence. The whole cinema took a deep intake of breath when the green bottle got drained... because they knew it was about to go up to 11.

Spectre.
This started off promisingly, but the last quarter was lame. After some of the super villains that have turned up in Casino Royale and Skyfall etc, this one was tepid as fuck - and supposed to be the king villain of them all. Whatever. And the whole link to Bond's childhood was lame, too. I dunno. It just seemed that with all that mega technology they had, the Spectre people seemed to do jack shit with it in terms of terror - that bombing they did in South Africa to get them to sign up to the Nine Eyes thing was a flicker in the background when it could have been so much more. The head of the British Intelligence Max was a paper thin villain. Also, what happened to Monica B's character after all that? Liked M and Q.
Meh. The action scenes, especially in Mexico were great, but the story was average and true menace non existent. Wonder if they will wind down the franchise now. Casino Royale was such a wonderful refresh of it, but it would take something spectacular now, and I think Daniel Craig has had enough.
3 plane vs jeep altercations out of 5 drillbits to the skull.
Bond will never die
