    I was just there last night, watching it! I can't for the life of me remember the name. In saying that, I didn't book so never really had to look

    A movie must be pretty unmemorable if you can’t recall it’s name...

    In Welly and it's becoming a bit of a tradition to grab a flick, so thought we'd check out the embassy as everywhere else seems to be closed. Neat place! Other half insisted on seeing John Wick 3, I cried, such a beautiful moment.

    Seems to be delving more and more into the fantasy, but a bloody great watch. Had me almost non stop giggling for the first 20 minutes, most of it nervous.

    Four and a half I'll be seeing you's out of 5 no you won't's

    Just re-watched Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy with Gary Oldman (warning, don't google him and find out you missed the R), channelling his inner Alec Guinness. Based on a really good book and it confirmed my view that it was a solid adaptation; however a feature length film is not really long enough to do the story justice. So, worth a watch but if you want a better experience, dig out the old TV series.

    What an awful remark even if you're saying it in jest, I'm triggered, appalled and offended by it. You're clearly a Crusaders fan.

    Had 2 films left on my Stan list before I shut it down (got three months free, and forgot to turn it off so have gone another 2 months 🙄 )

    Logan Lucky

    I'm not sure whether the slow pacing was deliberate, but it made it hard to watch. I thought that it had some great comic bits and the West Virgina drawl was amusing, but it felt like a 55 minute film stretched out.

    2 out of 5 fake arms

    The Legend of Tarzan

    Meh. Watched this because Margot Robbie. It was kind of hodge-podge and some of the CGI was laughable. The involvement of Samuel L Jackson was as grating as Skarsgard's accent.

    2 out of 5 ridiculous survivals from being beat up by a gorilla.

    Wow, I really liked that film, but then I've always been a fan of Soderbergh. Tarzan was an effort to watch, even with Robbie. I don't mind Skarsgard either, he was great in Generation Kill.

    Funnily enough your post just reminded me I was supposed to cancel my Stan subscription ... yesterday. 🤦🏽♂

    TBH, if I could have gotten a decent feed on my tv I would have kept it on purpose. It has enough different shows/movies from Netflix to make it worthwhile at least for a few months. It's fine on my laptop, but on the app on my tv it's buggy as shit.

    Because it was on, i watched The Colour of Money on Wednesday. Good movie that, Paul Newman is the fucking man

    Nick I really liked Logan Lucky, i thought it was really entertaining, and i liked both the little twists at the end.

    @Nepia @mariner4life it could have been due to time pressures, that I found the pacing particularly annoying on Logan Lucky.

    I so want this to be good. First time Cameron has been involved since T2, so fingers crossed.

    I saw it in the cinema so the pacing may not have been as pronounced (always find I prefer a slow paced movie in the cinema than at home).

    Daniel Craig's performance almost made up for his Bond output outside of Casino Royale. Excuse me while I wait this one out in here:

    somehow came across this movie on IMDB

    Babes with Blades

    Which had this review:

    I like this movie. For once they show strong women warriors without all the T & A. It kind of reads like a graphic novel. Has some gore (come on, what's a sword fight without blood?), bit nothing too gross. If you like strong women and swords, you will like this movie.

    Yeah likewise, Judgement Day with Guns and Roses was my teenage wet dream.

    The terminator timeline is such a fucken mess. Dr Emmett Brown would throw his hands in the air and jump off a building.

    But yes I too hope this is awesome....
