Am glad that last scene was cut. A fight between those two did not belong in this one.
I've just watched Green Book. Excellent

Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
The Son of No One (2011) 5/10
Interesting plot, but rather poor screen-writing and some parts are not well directed.
Texas Killing Fields (2011) 7/10
Crime drama with an element of horror. Based on real events.
Manhunter (1986) 7/10
Based on the first book of the Hannibal Lector series. It's a very interesting story. The remake Red Dragon (2002) has better direction and a better actor playing the serial killer.
Michael Collins (1996) 8.5/10
Biotopic. Mostly historically accurate, but some events and people (such as the Charles Dance character) are fictional. Mostly very good acting, especially by Liam Neeson, although Julia Roberts couldn't do an Irish accent properly.
Bohemian Rhapsody - not a big Queen fan but love some of the songs and his voice. The 2 hours flew by, so I must have enjoyed it even though I never believe anything about "true stories." The geezer's boat playing Freddie looked weird and the drummer was from the Inbetweeners (or something like that) which was off-putting.

Shit. My buddy already mentioned Bohemian Rhapsody.
Oh well.... I'll still mention it. I enjoyed the movie I must say. Although I did get a bit of a laugh from those within earshot when I let an "Oh-oh" escape in that pause just before Mercury's character gets kissed by a man the first time.
Must be that homophobic streak in me.
Actually, the last movie I saw was Roma. Finally saw it on Netflix not long ago. Still regret it to this day.
Mary Queen of Scots (2018 ) 1/10
I tried to watch this but I turned it off halfway through because it was really awful. It seems the writer and director have a poor understanding of history. The dialogue is contrived. Here Mary is speaking English with an Irish accent, but in history she would have had a French accent since she was raised in France.
Margot Robbie was great in I, Tonya (2017), but she couldn't do Elizabeth I properly. She should have watched Bette Davis and Cate Blanchett play Elizabeth to learn the role.
Mary of Scotland (1936) 8.5/10 with Katherine Hepburn and Fredric March is the best version. Also worth watching is the Mary Queen of Scots film from 1971.
Watched two movies yesterday evening:
The Great Wall (2016) 8/10
Very entertaining, never a dull moment. Very good costumes and visual effects.
The Colony (2013) 6/10
Not terrible, a bit better than some critics made it out to be. The acting is competent, and there are very good visual effects considering the small budget. However, the characters are too one dimensional. Cannibal scenes could have been more realistic, like they were in The Road. The leader of the cannibals seems like a poor copy of the leader of the Thenns in Game of Thrones. The first half is better directed than the second half, it seemed they were in a hurry to finish it.

The great wall was not that good.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I should have known you wouldn't like Matt Damon.
Here's one you might like: Moonlight (2016). There's not a single actor like Damon in that entire movie.
I love Matt Damon, everyone does here.

Green Book - I really enjoyed this, lovely little tale about a brief friendship in a working relationship between complete opposites. The most bizarre thing to me was, the chauffeur/bodygaurd lived into his 80s!!! What the fuck!!! The geezer was clearly a big fat man, he never stopped eating and smoking.
