    Gratuitous nudity and Ana de Armas

    alt text

    plot twist, all you see is JFK's cock

    Ahh, fuck it, I'm still in

    I’m a bit concerned. Are her tits big enough ?

    No. but neither were Ashley Judd's/ Mira Sorvino's and I still liked that movie.

    I’m just concerned about historical accuracy. Small tits can be awesome too.

    @MiketheSnow Should be Dan Stevens!

    Having watched, and thoroughly enjoyed, The Suspect I'd like to see Aidan 'Poldark' Turner as Bond.

    He's got the acting chops and charisma in spades

    Needs a fucken haircut too. Bond is always immaculately groomed. It’s a hard no from me til that happens.

    Well of course, duh

    Lou.

    Older, cranky woman with a past is landlady to a woman whose kid gets kidnapped. There is the premise for a good film here, but this misses it by a bit of a margin.

    Rambo (First Blood to Americans).

    This is a guilty pleasure. But in 2022 it really doesn't stand up, which isn't a fatal flaw given that's also true of many of its peers from that time. The problem here isn't the action scenes so much, it's the clunky dialogue and ridiculous acting. Richard Crenna is about as believable as some random who walks out of a disposal store off to a fancy dress party. The only thing that saves this is Brian Dennehy - without him it would certainly have been a bargain bin straight to video job.

    There is an amazing 4K restoration of Fritz Lang's 1927 film Metropolis on YouTube:

    Bullet Train

    Good turn your brain off action movie!

    Does a decent job of keeping you guessing of who is and isnt involved, some good chemistry between the cast with humorous banter

    Just because he got his dick sucked and put his tail in a blue horses' vagina, that doesn't stop him being human.

    Don't think I've spit my muesli out so much since someone (forget who) said Clive Woodward was the sort of bloke who kept a freezer full of woman's feet in his garage.

    Clive Woodward is @Snowy 😲

    I don’t think there’s an actor alive with such range and versatility as Liam Neeson.

    I’ve never EVER seen him in a role like this. Ever.

    @MN5 Big Liam did his career in reverse to lots of actors. Did a range of roles in his younger days and then became an action star as a pensioner, whereas other guys do the action when (relatively) younger and then try to do more character roles when older to prove they can act.

    I think his performances in Schindlers List and Rob Roy were outstanding but yeah, his career trajectory is a funny old one as mentioned on here numerous times.

    This scene here gets me EVERY time. So powerful.
