Mission Impossible: Fallout.
What a great movie. Twists and turns and awesome stunts, even a smidge of humour here and there. So nice to watch an actual smart action thriller, and one where everyone is kick ass.
5 rubber masks out of 5 the red wire in my right hands.

Saw two films on the plane,
Lara Croft, tomb raider. Don't take it at all seriously and it was a fun mindless watch. And Alicia Vikander is sneaky hawt. 3.5 pouts out of 5 flesh eating diseases
The man from UNCLE. Great retro look to the film, one of the better things I've seen Henry Cavill do (which isn't saying much), it was a fun 60s style spy flick complete with dapper suits and exotic locations. Oh and the aforementioned Ms Vikander. 3.5 American bugs out of 5 superior Russian bugs

Speaking of Henry Cavill, came out yesterday that DC wont be using him for future Superman or JL movies. Came about from unable to secure his appearance in the new Shazam movie next year.
They also talked about focusing more on Supergirl. Wtf
Think DC have finally lost the plot here, having already lost Afleck and now Cavill. -

That's the problem with DC - they can't tell a story so even quality actors appear wooden with the material they're given.

Just like Star Wars. Some would say....

@virgil cant recall where I saw it, but werent they going to have Catwoman as Lesbian?
Obviously the tight black leather and Lesbian scenes wont be an issue, but the simple fact that they are changing the character who is in love with Batman/Bruce Wayne and I think in one of the DC Universes has a kid with him as well is just weak.

She just married Bruce Wayne in the comics, so not sure that is right. They have Batwoman as a lesbian to cover that market anyway.

This comment triggers me like you wouldn't believe.
You wouldn't believe how offended I am.

Yeah Damian Wayne, Talia al Ghul’s son. If I remember right, they stole Batman’s spunk or drugged him and got her up the duff.
Trained him as a ninja. I think they may have killed him recently, although I’ve seen stories where he becomes the Batman too.
Fun character because he’s a complete arsehole, and Batman is always having to stop him killing the criminals

In an effort to try and actually do things together in spite of a newborn in the family we've watched a couple of movies lately:
Deadpool 2
Fucking awesome, heaps of funny moments and some nice mocking of the PC culture. Julian Dennison was good too, the kid has some talent. 4.5 X-people out of 5 robust teenagers from NZ.
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Fucking fantastic film, and not what I expected. Some great humour mixed in with some dust in your eye moments. Woody Harrelson was excellent and Frances McDormand was absolutely superb. 4.5 racist cops out of 5 unsolved murders.

Laughed out loud a number of times watching this film. Thought it was a good continuation of the original, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Solid 4.5 XFORCE out of 5 XMEN

What was the verdict on here around Justice League?
I love it. Just watched it again last night and it made me realise why I love these DC and Marval movies and am no longer fussed on the rubbish star wars is producing (in my mind) is that it's unrealistic but relatable.
I like what's his face as Batman too.

Small Town Crime
Really enjoyed it
