Wind river is by the same director and is a revenge movie about someone hunting down the people who raped and murdered his native American's pal's daughter. Both films lean heavily on the plight of modern day native Americans but they are a cracking watch.

Peckham 4:53 Thu Aug 5 Wind River Hell or high water. Hell or high water is a modern western set after the financial disaster of 2008 about two bank robbing brothers. What's not to like about that?

"Please help. Can someone who thought both Parasite and the Death of Stalin were good films, can you recommend a good film at the same calibre as those 2 films ?"

"Saw 'Pig' last night and it was surprisingly touching for a Nick Cage film. ""Werewolves Within' is quite good too and very funny. Gunpowder Milkshake' was a decent 'switch your brain off and just go with it' kind of film too full of kick-arse birds with guns"

Intouchsbles Is a great film.

Just watched Jolt on Amazon. A good yarn and Kate Beckinsale looks amazing and has quite a knack for comedy timing.

Included on Prime still I believe. Well worth a watch.

The French original is excellent.

"The original French version of The Upside was called Untouchable or The Intouchsbles in France. Not to be mistaken for The Untouchables. It is an excellent film. I haven’t seen the US remake but I’m going to guess that it is a poor imitation. Not because I am a film snob or anything, but it probably is."

I got it from here so was most likely you that reco'd it. I watched A walk in the woods..a good watch.

"Manuel 4:25 Sat Jul 24 The Upside is brilliant, a great film. The ""critics"" apparently prefer the original which is French I believe, but I'll stick with Cranston and Hart!"""

"Sold - have you seen The Upside With Kevin Hart also Bryan Cranston, Nicole Kidman. It's pretty good. I watched Dream Horse - It's a true story, so it is what it is, but found it a bit meh."

1971- The year that music changed everything If you liked summer of soul you’ll like this also

Sven Roeder 1:47 Fri Jul 23 Yup great shout looks right up my street

Saw Fatherhood last night with Kevin Hart. Really enjoyed it actually and Hart is decent in a more serious role but young Melody Hurd steals every scene she is in. An easy watch.

"Fast and Furious was OK, the story line was pretty good but the action scenes were a bit far fetched."

"Sven Roeder 1:47 Fri Jul 23 Saw that advertised, looks really interesting, mental that it was pretty much scrubbed from the record books compared to Woodstock etc"

"Went to see the documentary Summer of Soul the other day about the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival where concert footage has sat on a shelf for 50 odd years. Unbelievable performances .... Stevie Wonder, BB King, Mavis Staples , Mahalia Jackson, Sly & The Family Stone, Nina Simone etc etc"

Watched Black Widow the other night and was pleasantly surprised. I actually thought the standard movie action stuff was boring but the non action dialogue was fun. Becoming a major fan of our Florence Pugh. She’s going to be massive. And she’s shocked up with the Scrubs guy. Oh dear.

"Jaan Kenbrovin 2:27 Sun Jul 11 Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021) Werewolves Within is quite good. I thought that too, a really frenetic film that goes at 100mph, exactly the kind of shit that I want to watch at the moment. Gunpowder Milkshake was good too for the same reasons. Don't trust my word on it though, remember that I have covid and have lost my sense of taste!"

"Putting this here as I can't find the Documentary thread! Watched ""Blackfish"" on Netflix last night and must say it would put me off visiting Sea World for life!"

"Thought Molly's Game was decent, but was 20 mins or so too long. The Quiet Place Part 11 - Enjoyed it, and better than the first one for me. Who says that sequels are never better!?"

"Enjoyed Molly's Game, especially Molly's bosoms! Don't know fuck all about poker but still enjoyable."
