Movie review thread...
-
Civil war is available on the internet my friend tells me.<br><br>
He also says it's way better than Avengers 2. The premise of course is a difficult one to pull off but they don't do a horrible job. Although if they had just introduced the twist from the beginning, it would have made it that much easier to buy. -
Christoph Waltz carries Inglorious Basterds. Without him it would be quite average. Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown and Reservoir Dogs are my top three.<br><br>

<p>I think Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbender not to mention a few others here and there would strongly refute that.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>CW is awesome though.</p> -
<p><em>The Man From U.N.C.L.E.</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Watched it on the plane to Adelaide last week.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The film didn't get a lot of love by the looks of Wikipedia, and it certainly didn't appear on my radar except a brief mention Henry Cavill did on some late night talk show (Graham Norton?).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought it was very watchable. Straightforward spy movie for a Cold War era, with nukes, a smooth dude Westerner and fish-out-of-water Russian heavy. Not sure what everyone else was expecting, but I got the spy flick I was after without it taking itself too seriously.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And very, VERY Guy Ritchie. Great music, trademark camera work.</p>

<p>3 electrically fried German torturers out of 5.</p> -

<p>Hmmm, NTA, you discuss U.N.C.L.E yet fail to mention the delectable<strong> Alicia Vikander</strong> who contributes 2 1/2 of the electrically fried German torturers to this film.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cavill is better in this than as Superman.</p>

<p>Yes</p>

<p>I see she is playing Lara Croft in a Tomb Raider re-boot... :good1:</p> -

<p>The one playing the Kraut? She was OK I guess.</p>

<p>Sigh. Are we discussing this one</p>

<p><strong>I prefer the top one.</strong> Look, I'll do them both - together - if that's the deal.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not really enough skin to rate it on The Mariner Scale. But the top one got into the classy lingerie at one point, so she gets the choccies.</p>

<p> :shock: You like the horsey one? Different strokes I guess.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Vikander is odd in that she doesn't photograph very well, but is stunning on film. I knew a girl like that who I met in Vietnam, stunner in person, show people photos of her and they'd be meh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyway, movie review.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>X Men Apocalypse. Better than I thought it would be. Could have done with trimming 20 odd minutes of running time. I give it 3 Olivia Munn's and half a Sansa Stark out of 5.</p> -
<p>Based on the two pictures, I'd definitely go the brunette.</p>

<p>I can only assume... despite a shocking lack of judgement from her.... that Mrs NTA is not a headcase, because if you have ever been married to a headcase or have a mate who has been... you definitely dont a thing for them anymore. </p>

<p>My mate just divorced a hot bi polar chick... really depressing situation.</p> -
<p>The Lion King. Now my 3 1/2 year olds favourite movie. Wants to watch it all the time. Still a very good watch despite its age, and quite emotional when old Mufasa dies. Great soundtrack.</p>

<p>definitely the less appealing 'bi' to go for in a woman</p>
