Movie review thread...

@mariner4life I have to say, how the fuck some of these scripts get the green light is utterly beyond my comprehension. Doesn't matter if you have a top notch cast, if the script is complete rubbish, they can't save it.

Was away for work so watched three movies in the Hotel.
Justice League. Good Grief that rocked! Totally surprised
Thor Ragnorak: Was cringing at the beginning but really enjoyed it. Who was the actor playing the big blue guy. Sounded like the whale from the Chups sketch.
Baywatch. Actually laughed at some of the gags at the beginning but that was the highlight. Rest was dross.
I'm totally surprised too, did they release another Justice League movie already?
I thought it was a decent enough watch, but not in comparison to Thor.
I prefered it to Thor. Wasn't a massive fan of Hulk just yarning away.

The Hitman's Bodyguard
Fun
As it went on it seemed that it was an "enhancement" of a European movie with Murkan actors. Much like Bastille Day.
But still fun. Good lines. Reasonable story.
Enjoyed.
Was ok for Ms boo jr (14yo) imo: ie, No sex. Can deal with the violence and the bad language.
3 re-used action scenes from the original European movie out of 5 motherfuckers.

Watched "Darkest Hour" & Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" last week.
"Darkest Hour" was a good film but didn't really impress - a bit of a disappointment really. Oldman disappointed me and gave a tick-box portrayal of Churchill, which was a shame as he's one of my favourite actors.
"Dunkirk" was stunning. A visual masterpiece with sparse dialogue and wonderfully understated acting - particularly from Kenneth Branagh & Mark Rylance - supporting the action and story of the evacuation perfectly. Tom Hardy was brilliant. Very accurate historically and zero jingoism or subtexts.
Best film I've seen in years.

Wolf Warrior 2 (don't bother with 1) which is a Chinese Action film, and the hero, is certainly every bit as as robust as Lucas Hood & John McLane.

Watched âAmerican Madeâ (2017) starring Tom Cruise as Barry Seal and his cocaine runs from Medillin to Mena, Arkansas. Really enjoyed the film, especially the small allusions to then-AG/Gov Bill Clinton springing him from jail.

Watched another Chinese Action film recently, The Adventurers, which is a bit of Oceans 11 with a bit of Mission Impossible.
Alot of action takes place in France and around Europe and also has Jean Reno. Only issue is some of the subtitles don't translate that well
