Looking forward to watching The Naked Gun.  Seems like it has positive reviews.

No one can match Leslie Nielsen, but I'm sure Liam Neeson does a decent job.

Yeah I really didn't get 28 years later and what the writer's intention was. Strange film.

I was pleasantly surprised by Superman after all the negativity on here. It wasn't brilliant but a 7/10.

I have to say it's aged very well and is still excellent movie and incredibly influenced so many film of it's genre. Also Sarah Michell Gellar and Jennifer Love Hewitt look so very pretty and cute. Apparently they make an appearance in the 2025 version. The  digitalisation has made it a lot better quality than when I watched it over 25 years ago. 


 
Viewing the trailer unfortunately it looks like a carbon copy.

Just watched William Tell; very disappointing. His wife is played by an Iranian. Tell has nothing in the way of a personality. Gessler doesn't look anything like Marius Goring, he's not a Landburger, and isn't even fat. Worst of all they don't even use Rossini's Lone Ranger tune, not even David Whitfield singing it at the end. Bit like going to see a Batman  film and then finding they don't use the Dinner, dinner, dinner Batman music.

A Superman. Who isn't Super. Just because it doesn't fit with MODERN AUDIENCE. Deserves to bomb. Singer made his Superman movie dull as dishwater. Synder was all doom and gloom. And now Gunn has made it woke. Donner hit the nail on the head. 40 years ago. How fucking hard can it be.?

The good news for any movie goer is. Even a giant movie studio like Warner Bro can only keep pissing away a billion dollar gambles. Before the arsehole falls out.

Haven't seen anything about it but saw there is a Supergirl in  it, so nailed on she saves Superman...
SPOILER: apparently it's Louis Lane who saves him, flying a spaceship.  That's how shit it sounds.  That review from Mike Francesa says it's 2 hours of Superman being beaten up.
Don't you just hate it when they bring modern politics into films?

Just because Superman's an illegal immigrant they make out that the born and bred American Lois Lane is more of a hero than him. Proper MAGA shit right there, innit?

Watched "Honest Thief" a Liam Neeson action flick couple of nights bacik on Netflix. Pretty decent to be fair, not as good as Taken but better than some of his others.

Quite enjoyed Ballerina a spin off from the John Wick universe but then I adore Ana de Armas.

Loved Robinson in Dirty Harry especially the scene when the black dude beat him up for free,the screen's great villians.
