“Flash, Flash, I love you. But we only have 14 hours to save the earth”
Awesome high art cinema
Flash Gordon was terrifically awful fun.
Mings daughter was hot.
Flesh Gordon was funner
Especially as a 14 year old

The rewind button on your VCR was working overtime or being 14 probably didn’t need to rewind

Ok so 3.5 Q’s out of 5 M’s for No time to Die. Good story line, acting not quite there in places. But plenty of Bond humour and obviously action a plenty.
Not going to say too much about the movie so as to avoid spoilers but worth a look if you are a Bond fan like me from way back.
OK one spoiler Ana de Armas is a babe and there are even rumours she may even get her own Bond spin-off which would be cool.
And I think I may have a theory on the next Bond actor.

Pretty fucking good I thought. No expectations. The fight scenes were ace.
That would also be an apt title for a very dumb action movie that I would pay to see. In the front row, with a bucket of very loud popcorn.

Jungle Cruise
Did you like Indiana Jones? Of course you did, it's the pinnacle of adventure movies, especially built around an ancient power
Did you like the Mummy? Of course you did, an excellent adventure movie about an ancient power involving a plucky English woman and her fucking useless brother
This movie is not these movies
The Rock and Emily Blunt is a lot of charisma, and even they cannot rescue this turd
I'm not pulling punches here, this movie sucks. Do not pay for it. Do not get sucked in to watching it with your kids. It's utter rubbish.
0 good rock moments out of 5 Blunt isn't even hot in this
Avoid

On reading this review I was compelled to look up this on IMDB. Based on a ride in Disneyland tells me all I need to know and backs up your review.

Am 1/3 in (family stuff got in the way) and not that impressed. came across as tired and formulaic. Still fun to watch but lacks the edge of Casino Royale or Quantum of Solace. Trying too hard to be clever and, in parts, woke.
Next Bond? I'd go for Idris Elba. Has the right mix of menace, cool, screen presence and is just so British.

M4L stepped on lego before watching it. It's amusing and has Emily Blunt.

@catogrande Pirates of the Caribbean...which is kinda what Jungle Cruise is, a bit of that, bit of Indy.
I thought Jungle Cruise was fine, not a must watch, but decent.
I'm an hour into No Time To Die...so far Ana is hawt AF, Craig looking tired and Ana hawt.

Brittany Runs A Marathon
It’s probably shit. It’s probably boring.
But if you’ve ever tried to lose weight or do a massive physical accomplishment, you’ll relate to it. And it’ll get dusty. It’s been one of the worst days in recent times in the Rage house, but this was the perfect film for it.
5 runs out of 5 hot Asians.

Agree, mindless fun, but fun.
I made the mistake of saying I'd go see No Time To Die at the cinema with my mate today. Just learnt it's three hours long, fuck that. Wish I was watching it at home as I haven't been a fan of the last couple of Bonds.
To make matters worse I forgot I had NSW covid entertainment vouchers to use so used real money for the tickets.

That rather shitty film was what inspired me to do a marathon. Felt that if that ridiculous creature could do it then I had a good shot.
Hope the issues at the Rage household have improved. Sorry to hear it

Free on Disney + at the moment.
There is a remake of Home Alone. I only saw little bits but CF Jr said it was shit. From what I saw they took all the great bits out of the original and replaced them with nothing good. Avoid
