    See How They Run (2022)

    Comedy whodunnit set in the '50's around the staging of Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap. Came with good reviews and a good cast, had some good moments but overall was seriously disappointing. David Oyelowo was bloody awful to the point of being cringe-worthy.

    3 Miss Marple's out of 5 Doctor Watson's

    You gave it a high rating for a disappointing film - I felt the same but with a lower rating.

    Didn't have a problem with Oyelowo.

    I'm a generous bloke....

    He's one of my favourite actors and one of the reasons I was looking forward to the film - he was the most disappointing thing for me.

    Draco Malfoy knew karate? That would have come in handy.

    Fuck. No.
    Never seen it, never want to.
    I remember when it came out... just the lowest of low "gross-out" comedy, from my recollection of the "vibe".
    But I'm not even watching the trailer to confirm.

    I suspect it’s one of the worst “comedies”ever made. Just looks absolutely retarded as fuck and about as funny as Cancer.

    I am surprised you’re not taking one for the team though.

    Congratulations. You've found my line.
    I thought pretty much everybody else had seen it though - it was quite "famous" at the time.

    Not me.

    I was scrolling through YouTube and I do remember seeing the trailer back in the day when the flatties and I had, hmmm, I think it was Saturn TV ?

    Fairly sure that’s the only flick we didn’t watch and we sat through some absolute shit.

    @MN5 I've had the displeasure of seeing it. I had a bit of a thing for watching the Razzie Award winners back in the day. And I liked the Tom Green show. But yeah, it's absolute shit. Can't remember much other than one scene where he grabs an erect horse penis and starts spraying it around.

    Spider Man Into The Spiderverse.

    Sensational animation, watched it a second time with the mini-NZZP. Simply outstanding.

    Black Panther - Wakanda Forever: I thought this was pretty ho hum, watchable but that's about it. Too much CGI. Pretty average villain and story.

    Best scenes were one not really related to the story and a cameo.

    I preferred Dr Strange and Thor but I suspect this will make a bigger box office.

    @Nepia i have to go with Dr Strange 2 > Black Panther 2 > Thor 4....think Thor went off the rails...especially with the giving kids the power of thor thing....couldn't give that to everyone during endgame?

    i liked black panther in general, another great sound track etc and i liked Shuri's arc, M'baku is awesome

    ##spoiler
    is M'baku the king now?
    ##endspoiler

    but dont think we needed more people in full ironman suits...part of what made the warriors in black panther cool is the did it all as humans....and why is the boat so far out of the water?....like so may marvel films in the last phase i think it it a bit frayed at the end

    @Catogrande i think ive said this before, im sure theyre carving Thor and GotG and maybe captain marvel off from the rest, so we'll have "space adventures" with those too, more comedy adventure stuff...and then the main MCU which will remain earth focused, the "multiverse saga"....i wouldnt be surprised if thor isn't in the avengers films going forward

    I'm Thor, Dr Strange, BP. But not much between Thor and Strange. On the giving powers to kids and why didn't they do that in other movies, TBF I think about that in so many Marvel movies. It's the suspension of disbelief you have to take sometimes I guess.

    The characters, especially the ones from 1 are all fine in BP, it's the story I had an issue with.

    ##spoiler
    That was weird, it seemed like he was challenging - I thought they'd return to show us but they didn't.

    I agree on the boat stuff and the suits, also, why did the most advanced society on earth not have some aircraft nearby in case they needed them for the retreat?
