    Okay, finally got around to Rambo: Last Blood.
    Fuck. Soooo bad.
    It was obviously some B-grade movie script, shoe-horned into somehow having John Rambo as the lead. And the shoe-horning somehow splattered shit over everything so that nobody gets to go home the better for it.
    If I was the kind of piston-wristed-gibbon who used phrases like "destroyed my childhood" in reference to goddamn movie franchises... I gotta say, this shite was more worthy of that claim than any transformers or starwars or whatever else.
    So shit.

    So did you like it or not?

    I think 1 unnecessary-shooting-of-the-already-dead-by-booby-trap-baddies was generous ... but agree on the niece.

    @MajorRage yeah, it wasn't bad. Would recommend, with a freshly steamed bag of dicks as a nicely matching viewing snack.

    Watched Fury last night. I thought it portrayed the brutality and futility of war quite well. Good tank battle action. 4 tank veterans vs 5 SS battalions

    Spent the first part of this morning watching High Plains Drifter again. Utter bollocks of course, but in a brilliant way. 5 misanthropic psychopaths out of 5 dwarf sheriffs.

    I’m a massive Clint fan but this would be behind the dollars trilogy, Outlaw Josey Wales and Unforgiven in his list of westerns.

    It’s still great stuff though but probably not 5 out of 5

    It's early in his director career, borrowing heavily on the Leone trilogy. Even Hang 'Em High is better.

    You reckon ?

    Haven’t seen it in yonks but I remember it being a big drop in quality from the dollars films which he’d just made.

    Coogans Bluff ( not a western but made around the same time ) is a really good flick though.

    White Boy Rick

    Solid 3.5 newcomers out of 5 old hands

    Excellent debut performance from ‘Rick’

    I thank my lucky stars I didn’t grow up in Detroit

    What a shithole

    Wine flowing, fire going and temperature dropping so Mrs Meldrew suggested watching a Christmas film. The secret, romantic me being a bit of a sucker for things Christmas, I agreed and we settled for The Christmas Train. Starred Danny Glover & Dermot Mulrony and based on a David Baldacci book so should be OK right?

    How wrong I was....and I'd really like that 95 minutes of my life back.

    Utter crap. 2 screaming sugar-fuelled Christmas Day kids out of 5 drunk Christmas Aunts

    That's a seasonal favourite in Meldrew Towers along with Bad Santa

    Matrix 4

    I'm thinking they should've recast this sequel.

    I'm not in tune enough to work out this movie? Is it Matrix or John Wick? Isn't that the gay lawyer off Jessica Jones?

    @mariner4life Man I am not a person who lusts after your typical young insta whores, really not interested in ladies under 30. But that pic is not working for me!
