"Just back from watching 1917. Very good film, no denying that. The 'single shot' idea worked very well mostly but a couple of times I felt it slowed the pace and tension. The sets are incredible. So many tiny details incorporated. I also loved the fact that in every pause point Mendes manages to attract a world-class actor to play a part with only a couple dozen lines. It would have been greatly improved if the French bird got her tits out whilst doing an impromptu pole dance but maybe that's just me. 8/10"

"Finally seen 1917. Okay. Not much in the characters, though. Just a cinematic ""achievement"". Impressed by the amazing waterproof paper and ink."

"Think it might have been a 2019 film, but Ford V Ferrari was excellent. Christian Bale superb, Matt Damon pretty good, too. Fairly close to the truth, too, from what I can garner."

"I watched Uncut Gems last night and enjoyed it - who would have thought Sandler had it in him? It seemed so start at 100mph and didn’t let up, definitely adds to the feeling of anxiety."

"Yeah, Uncut gems does get better in the 2nd half. At first it's just a bunch of irritating shouty Jewish people, like an unfunny Curb Your Enthusiasm, but it improves. As a movie about gambling it's nowhere near as good as The Gambler though. That's the 70s James Caan movie, not the shitty one with Marky Mark that was made a few years back."

"Sandler and Garnett did an interview together on pardon my take, The director had an idea of how he wanted the scene to go and then asked Garnett to essentially write his own lines how he would have said them."

"I'm halfway through Uncut Gems (been watching on the train). Not sure I'll go back for the second half. Too stressful. Although a million miles away, it reminded me of watching that John Cleese film Clockwork. Man has awful things happen to him that hamper the important task he has to complete by a fixed time."

CS I was deliberately being a cսnt. It's fucking stupid arguing over taste in films just as it is about arguing about taste in comedy or anything subjective. That's why we do it on here!

"I'm looking forward to seeing The Lighthouse. I enjoyed Cold Skin. Saw Dolittle a few days ago. It was ok. Nothing special. Can't remember much about it tbh. Saw a few films on a plane the other day.. None from this year though. 47m down. Was ok. Had its moments. The kind of film I would have gone to see on school holidays. Final Score. Was actually better second time. The thing that makes it hard to watch is that it's close to home. If you can get over the idea of us playing in the CL, and some shit dialogue, and the daughter of the Boleyn landlady having a northern accent, the violence makes it bearable. Still can't quite believe that I can't just go back to the old ground. American Hangman. Was good. Quite thought provoking. I, Tonya. I was enjoying this, especially the mother who is fucking hysterical. But I had to change planes halfway, and the 2nd plane didn't have it on."

Someone mentioned The Lighthouse. Good but not a patch on a similar scenario in Cold Skin with Ray Stevenson. Brilliant film.
