"New Daniel Craig film looks ''interesting'' - Queer is an 2024 historical romance drama film directed by Luca Guadagnino from a screenplay by Justin Kuritzkes, based on the 1985 novel by William S. Burroughs. Set in 1940s Mexico City, the film follows an outcast American expat who becomes infatuated with a younger man."

"Alfs - I have no idea what Coenesque means ffs, but yea could have been better and most films are too long these days, I find myself watching most in two sits now."

"Manuel, not a bad shout for Greedy People but would have been better if it lost twenty minutes.. It tried to be Coenesque but missed the target somewhat. I'll give it a 6/10."

Percy yes from 1998. Do people not fucking understand the point of this thread is on contemporary films. Start a general Films thread if you want.

Watched The Thin Red Line bloody good war film 2hrs 50mins. Saw it in 2 parts.

Alfs is judging a movie from the first 5 mins. Actually the first 5 mins is pretty much the worse bit of Duchess.

Watched Greedy People and thought it was pretty good.

"Watched Trap, not bad Sunday evening watching, but nothing more."

"Watched Alien Romulus last night and agree with others below. Entertaining but just a less impressive repackage of the same thing, that was too long and offered only a slight addition to the original story. Also watched Greedy People the day before which was decent, but a poor mans Fargo."

"I lasted 5 minutes watching Duchess. Truly terrible. But then found a gem of a film called 'Tag' on Amazon. Very funny and also poignant, about why we shouldn't lose our inner child. A delightful watch."

Loved Duchess. A must watch. Always been a fan of Neil Marshall’s work. His misus Charlotte Kirk has very fit body but facial she’s looks like a tranny. Sean Pertwee as usual is great.

"Alfs - That looks like a good yarn. Finally got around to At Close Range, the 80's really were a different time, and Walken's tosh looked ridiculous. Thought it was so so, which is probably why I hadn't rushed to see it before."

"Just watched and enjoyed The Instigators. Not a classic but an entertaining 100 minutes, and good to see Toby Jones stealing scenes from Matt Damon."

It was clever how they recreatedthe Ian Holm character. But the young English guys ruined it for me. The black guy talking like Chris Eubank was very good.

RB shorty Totally agree. Not been a better Alien film since 2 . I think Romulus was back to basics. And was almost an amalgamation of 1 and 2. I enjoyed it but for how long can you re hash the same story ?

"Cheezey Bell-End 4:26 Mon Aug 19 I'm sure I'll end up watching it on a plane or something, but I cannot imagine what they could do with this franchise now that hasn't been done many times before?"

"Cheezey Bell-End 4:26 Mon Aug 19 I'm sure I'll end up watching it on a plane or something, but I cannot imagine what they could do with this franchise now that hasn't been done many times before?"

The issue is Cheezey the first two films are classics and set the bar very high. What has come since has left the bar very very low. It also doesn't help Scott sticking his oar into it every time. Wonderful world builder. Piss poor story teller. And the truth is. Until Weaver picks up her pulse rifle and goes on a final bug hunt with Cameron. The fanbase ain't getting the send off for the Xenomorph they want. And unfortunately that ship self-destructed a long time ago. This new one has a Film Four viewing written all over it.

Watched a movie called Detained at the weekend . Low budget but very interesting and a bit Kaiser Zorse.

Watched Alien Romulus yesterday. Was a bit disappointed with it. It's like a mix of all the previous Alien movies but lacking in suspense.
