The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Good fun ride, made better by being 'based on a true story', added bonus of Eiza Gonzales looking hawt as always.
4 unbelievable stories out of 5 I hope that is close to the truth!
what did you watch it on?

@Tim I was going to point out Red Dawn but I'm late to the Walter Hill Appreciation Party
I have a soft spot for
It's based on Xenophon's Anabasis - what's not to like. Even has a Cyrus and it's so camp
Awesome PS2 game as well

Hit Man was a lot of fun.
It's still just a Netflix movie (in terms of scope and locations), so not a true top quality Linklater movie, but very enjoyable.
4/5

Under Paris
Ok, this gets kudos for being the only movie my 47 year old other half and my 16 and 14 year old sons could actually agree on…..
But fuck me, that’s the only positive. Look, we all know every Shark movie pales in comparison to the masterpiece that is Jaws, but at least many of the other shithouse initiations play it with tongue firmly in cheek. Maybe it’s a language barrier but these guys were all playing it completely straight as a giant shark somehow makes it’s way into the Seine in Paris, somehow breeds lots of baby sharks, wrecks havoc on a triathlon……you get the gist.
Do NOT be fooled by the positive reviews it got online ( the girl read these before we watched it and the three of us took the piss mercilessly after )
As for the ending……my word.
Utter shit. Avoid like the plague.
1.5 CGI sharks out of 5 burst eardrums

@MN5 I'm withholding judgement until @Kruse reviews it.
It may have depths only he can fathom.
Does it have tits for instance?Given the number of late night movies Kruse has reviewed I am not convinced he has done plenty of that sort of "fathoming"

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
A worthy prequel to Fury Road although not as good. Chris Hemsworth gets to ham it up as a fair dinkum Aussie. Mrs Thor even gets to play two roles, one hidden behind the prosthetic makeup. And plenty of explosions and action.I much preferred the originals. Too much CGI in the latest one and the characters weren’t as fun. Peak Mel, it all went downhill after that
