Yeah found it to be really boring.

The WHU references were as naff as Brosnan's accent.

Thursday Murder Club on Netflix was a good watch, with a very impressive cast. Also, another film with a West Ham reference.

I thought it was pretty average considering the amazing cast.

Watched the new "'I know What You Did Last Summer"' 2025. Has the lusty Madelyn Cline in it and that's about the only good bit.

I watched Red Sonja last night. I knew what to expect. I was surprised how many decent actors they managed to do it. However Matlida Luzt is on my top 10 list (see a film called Revenge 2017) and she spends a lot of the  movie semi-naked so its not a complete waste of time.

Have a Curzon subscription so saw Thursday Murder Club even though it’s going to Netflix on Thursday 
Pleasant enough but was wondering how much the retirees were paying to live in a country house resembling Downton Abbey

Pierce Brosnan stars with Helen Mirren, Ben Kingsley & Celia Imrie as the OAP’s
He plays a former union leader and towards the end is shown in his West Ham polo watching a match on tv with his son
Could be up for an Oscar as he pretends to be enjoying the game … I think Bowen scores

Watched the third of Kenneth Brannagh's Poirot offerings with Death on the Nile last night.  Obviously knowing the story doesn't help in a "whodunnit" but I adored the Peter Ustinov version but again didn't rate Brannaghs at all.  Any love for Brannagh's trilogy?

The first two are decent enough.

The third one is straight trash.

Recently watched, Life of Chuck , quite a good feel good movie with some nice crazy mathematics theories at the core  running through it . Quite enjoyed the Brad PItt F1 film , good bit of non stop High Octane fun, again with some good Tech info and crazy tactics . Doubt there for everyone but some will enjoy them .

Watched The Monkey, not a bad black comedy.

Nope, Overrated hammy actor. Crap at Poirot.

Started watching SITE, decent idea but turned it off after 40 mins. Poor 

I tried it last night and indeed was boring as hell after 30mins.. I then fast forwarded to see if anything kinda happens and nah. Crap film.

Primitive War. Looks like it could be fun. A Vietnam War movie with a twist. Tricia Helfer. Jeremy Piven. And Creedance.

Sign Me Up Sarge.!

The new War of the Worlds film looks really good.

 

I nearly stuck it on last weekend, saw some reviews today.... Never understood the need to constantly remake films. 

Looks shit to me.

Watched Salvable recently. Decent English film about crime and boxing, with Toby Kebbell (Dead Man’s Shoes and RocknRolla)  and a great cameo from Shia LaBeouf.

Also Sovereign is a good film. It’s an US anti government film based on a true story. Nick Offerman is great in the lead role.

Watched a low budget I guess horror/slasher called Blood River about a group of English tourists chased by canabalistic indians int he Amazon. Was actually quite good. 

River of Blood?

Yeah sorry River of Blood.

I saw that Happy Gilmore 2 is out, then I suddenly realised that I had never actually seen Happy Gilmore 1 so sat down to watch it last night.  I suspect that at the age I was when it first came out back in 1996 I would have probably found it funny, but not now.  I'll probably leave 2 until there is absolutely nothing else to watch!  

[Mad Ferret]

I do agree that the ending was a bit strange.

Obviously the Jimmy Saville cult leader was that one kid from the beginning, watching Teletubbies, who survived and has never grown up.

Interested to see where they go with it.
