last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)

In Darkness (2018 ) 7/10

I liked Natalie Dormer's performance, she's a very talented actress. I enjoyed seeing the other two former Game of Thrones actors, James Cosmo and Ed Skrein. The music and cinematography was very good.

The story was interesting enough, but lacked clarity by times and seemed to me to be incomplete. There should have been a better explanation of some of the plot twists, especially at the end.

Adding another few minutes here and there to give the viewer a more detailed explanation of events would have made it a better movie, and then the critics would perhaps not have been so harsh in their reviews.

Ready Player 1, I really liked it, a bit long tho

Rampage, alright for a bit of entertainment, nothing fantastic here.

Walked in on Pale Rider the other night. Went back and checked out The thin red line and HBO series The Pacific again. Thin Red line should have been much bigger than it was. I say just as good as Saving Private Ryan. Little more artsy and philosophical but good. Nick Nolte was red face brilliant.

The Rock has proven surprisingly funny in roles.

I hated 'The Thin Red Line' saw it at the cinema. Never seen Pale Rider. Now I have seen Saving Private Ryan and thought the beginning was amazing but lost interested as it went on.

Rampage I suppose was exactly what we expected.

Ive not seen Player 1 yet.

Why are films all so long nowadays tho? really puts me off.

Lets get back to the old steven seagal 90 min films;D

Started 'Citizen Kane' last night what a brilliantly shot film, I think it's so eye catching that you can get lost in that rather than the actual story. Orson Welles was a supreme talent in anything he did.



Natalie Dormer kind of looks like a cartoon character version of a person....I guess it's the big eyes and the smirk she always has on her face. She's been in friggin everything The Tudors, Game of Thrones, The Forrest.....she typically gets naked in her movies and tv series as well :thumb:


Saving Private Ryan was an experience. I remember a WW2 Vet spoke before it played when I saw it in the theater, it was really impressive although yeah towards the end it started to drag a bit and that little punk who is ALWAYS the little punk bitch weenie played that role again to a T....just up and letting Nazis kill his fellow soldiers :shakehead:

I havent' given The Thin red Line as much attention, I have The Pacific in the queue though and if it's anything like Band of Brothers I'll love it. Generation Kill was decent if you like that kind of take on war movies/series

Ready Player One - Steven Spielbergs new film

The best CGI I have ever seen.
Amazing 😎

This was a great movie

Yeh Line was bit of a roller coaster from action to a sloooow burn of social conscience and ills of war. Also didn't help that it was released just months after blockbuster Private Ryan and in it's shadow ;D.

Did not know there was another version.

didnt Richard Donner start the film then another director took over?

I watched a documentary called the death of superman lives : "what happened" - A documentary about the proposed 1998 Superman Lives feature film that would have starred Nicolas Cage.

it was pretty good & worth a watch

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2753778/

Nicolas Cage has superman number 1 comic which must be worth over $1million. Also heard he was bankrupt and crap in Ghost Rider.

Nicolas Cage was great in 'Valley Girl', he was awesome in 'Raising Arizona', 'The Family man' was good, he's not the best actor by any stretch of the imagination but I don't mind the guy. He's in some excellent bad movies...The Wickerman remake, Face/Off, Con Air....good stuff, good career.

Definitely worth watching the Richard Donner cut. More for us older ones too see how much different it was to the one that we are so familiar with and saw at the cinema as a kid.

The story is the same but the scenes 60-70% different

Will be weird seeing a different cut now

Which is what makes it worth watching.

Michael B. Jordan is the villain in the film and he is great in it. Only recently watched Creed and he was excellent in that. Did not realise he was in Chronicle and was the human torch in Fantastic Four.

Good actor.
