    The Batman (2022)

    A boring, derivative, mumbly dialogue, cliched and over-long turd of a film. Utter, utter shite and the worst 90 minutes I've watched for yonks.

    1 over-done Comic Villain out of 5 Undercooked Super Heroes.

    Violent Night (2022)

    Watched after Christmas and thought it was great. Anarchic, comic and a bit suspenseful at the same time. Def. on the Christmas watch-list for next year.

    4.5 Uncle Scrooges out of 5 Richard Attenborough Kris Kringles

    I didn't think it was that great. Stole from a bunch of excellent Xmas and action films

    Glass Onion: A Knives Out mystery

    Only half way through this as the girl kept falling asleep on the couch. Will finish it tonight.

    Awesome fun so far, Daniel Craig is so good against Bond “type”, Edward Norton is great as a smarmy rich dickhead, Bautista still amazes me as a wrestler turned actor and Kate Hudson is HAF ( why have I never notice before )

    Definitely recommend ( but the ending might be shit for all I know )

    Don't get me wrong, objectively Kate Hudson is very attractive, but she's never done anything for me. I personally don't find her HAF and find her to be quite an annoying screen presence.

    In saying that I thought this role was perfect for her as her character fit how I find her.

    @MN5 Good movie, well worth a watch, although there's a chance that they portray the bassist incorrectly and you might hate it. 😉

    I think homage is the word you're looking for ... 😉

    I quite liked the Home Alone slapstick comedy violence in the attic part.

    I got past that bit and coped.

    100% on Hudson, she’s never done it for me until now. Apt description of all her previous work

    Shawhank Redemption

    Was on TV last night. It's not aged at all (I guess it can't given when it's set), the acting and story are still utterly compelling and superb.

    Only silly thing was that Mrs MR had not seen it (WTF!!!) ... and half way through looked up the ending on her phone. Unbelievable.

    5 Divorce out of 5 Lawyers.

    I’ve seen it on Neon or Netflix, definitely keen to rewatch.

    Always nice when a classic you haven’t seen for years re emerges.

    Barbarian

    Started well, then descended into something pretty stupid as SO many horror movies of that ilk do.

    A few genuine scares, some tits ( @Kruse even you might not like them though )…….

    Again, without giving too much away it’s weird how living in basements your whole life apparently makes you stronger than Eddie Hall, The Mountain and Brian Shaw combined. I’m surprised more pro athletes don’t do it.

    I think the link to Goldie Hawn has something to do with it. Definitely tainted by that.

    @Stockcar86 disappointed they didn't throw in a cuckoo clock reference. Otherwise looks awesome

    All other filmmakers may as well give up. We have our winner for 2023 already.

    @Kruse Thanks. How the fuck did I miss that. I must stop allowing myself to be distracted by work.
