    @MN5 boo! Take your attitude to the GoM thread pal

    It’s definitely entertaining in one sense and Neeson obviously has the immortal lines....but the movie as an absolute whole ? Overrated.

    Yeah, I barely finished it

    You got naked at the end? Seems you enjoyed it huh.

    well I guess if some studio wants a film made with a 'name' Actor, they know he will do it...hard working actor though! 😆

    Outbreak

    Somehow I'd never seen it. Extraordinary cast. Starts out great, descends into rubbish in the 2nd half.

    Once upon a time in Hollywood

    Yeah watchable, but pretty meh really, not something I'd highly recommend.

    2.5 stunt men out of 5 dead wives.

    Lockdown here, so got quite a few to update ..

    Ghost.

    Even the magnificence of Swayze can't lift this movie up. Given he managed to lift up Dirty Dancing to watchable level, and that is the ultimate chick-only flick storyline, this is seriously saying something. Moore grieves and basically cries the whole fucking movie, so its' not even worth watching for her. Shit effect, shit movie, shit plot. Goldberg gets the occasional laugh which is how it registers it's sole star.
    1 crying Demi out of 5 obvious plots

    Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit

    Never got the heads up that it was a b-movie. How on earth they got Costner to act in this, I don't know. Not actually a bad movie in itself, with a half decent storyline, but it's just feels like you're watching some made for TV thing from the 90's. Highlight was a solid discussion about the size of Knightley's tits with my wife (I have a major thing for Kiera) which meant a bit of googling found me a legit picture of her topless. Two panadols on an ironing board anybody?
    3 bad Russian accents out of 5 bad actors

    Flight

    I think I wrote about this above, but I watched it again as it was on and thought why not. Simply tremendous movie. Washington is superb and you really get the flawed character he is playing. Really good plot, with a good story, and a proper ending.
    4.5 upside down flights out of 5 epically pissed Washingtons

    Airplane II

    Not as good as the first one, but still got some epic scenes. Jive guy swearing on the bible ("ain't no thang" followed by high 5's) and the sign flashing when the stewie is talking bullshit had me in tears.

    3 Bullshits out of 5 Collossal bullshits

    Bowling For Columbine

    Certainly not a feel good movie, but and absolutely fascinating delve into American gun culture. A bit dated now & I think my political views have softened somewhat from I first saw it, so I'm not as completely in agreeance with Moore as I was. Marilyn Manson interview is still the best part of it. Man is incredibly smart, there is no question about that
    4 free guns out of 5 American Shitholes

    Borat 2

    Not as good as the first, not even close. Lots of questions come out of the movie, especially for Rudy Giuliani to answer. Some of the scenes are so god damned cringe worthy, and some are just lame. Still watchable though, and it's free on Amazon ...
    3 happy out of 5 endings

    Are you dead on the inside??? It's pure loveliness and gentle comedy and a good cry all rolled into one. What a classic, did your wife give it the same rating??
