Movie review thread...

Justice League - eventually got around to watching.
Wasnt anywhere near as bad as some make out. Batman is the worst character. He can't help bring his angst to the party all the time. Lighten up dude.
Thought Aquaman was very cool, way better than the comic version of my day.
Spent way too long on backstory and the Superman in the cornfield scenes were plain corny.
Hardly rubbish though, when compared to some other shit around.

@nepia have you seen this? It’s actually grosser than anything the Farelly brothers ever did. Also there’s a lot of male nudity and castration.
The most unlikeable movie I have ever attempted to watch. Terrible overacting, overdosed on grossness.
Not a single redeeming quality.

@crucial Don't ever watch the sitcom called Workaholics - this is basically a movie length version of the show (characters and story are different but characterisations and humour are the same).
I quite enjoyed it after @jegga let me know about it.
But as you're a Justice League fluffer we know your taste is suspect

Watched The Clapper. Bittersweet comedy. Low key. Enjoyed it.

Ready Player One: I enjoyed it as a movie and as a spectacle.
I'm a fan of the book and lots was left out and changed which tempered my enjoyment, so a warning to any book fans out there. Best to think of them as two separate entities.
My mate who hadn't read the book loved it. Lots of pop culture/80s references, some decent 'virtual action' and a decent cast.

I watched this Netflix Iraq war movie called Sand Castle - about a an airborne squad tasked with delivering water. It got panned by critics but I thought it was actually blood good and quite interesting. Superman was in it and he's a decent screen presence when Hack Snyder isn't directing him.
I wonder if critics are unduly harsh on Netflix produced films because they equate them with Direct to video?
Agree. Accidentally started watching this thinking it was that much hyped Brad Pitt war film. Just kept on watching and really enjoyed it. Not sure why it was panned by critics. The acting, subject matter etc were all sound.

This was another one that the critics hammered I enjoyed, the way they showed the decline of the main characters mental state and the effect of the stop/loss system the yanks bought in affected him were well done. The subject matter isn't pleasant which might be part of the reason it was panned.

I liked the Brad Pitt one too, different type of movie though.
I also saw Siege at Jadotville which was good, basically Netflix just sends me all the war stuff now. -
@jegga watched The Beast of War the other night, pretty decent flick, amusingly though, Russian flick about the Afghan war, made by Americans...

Yeah interesting that they chose to make it .
I was watching a bit of Lone survivor the other and then I remembered what a fluffybunny Luttrell was to the guy that saved his life and I lost interest -
