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 “American Made” (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

@virgil James Bond is wildly over rated. Some/most of those movies are absolutely dire.

Pierce Brosnan one's were poor but the proof is in a franchise that's been going strong for 56 years with at least one ( no doubt more) movies confirmed in the near future.
My second favourite franchise ever, easily.

I watched it for the first time, latter part of last year. Did not live up to the hype.
