"Zico - Yea I enjoyed The Plane. Look up ''Last seen alive'' with Butler, from last year. Really liked it, about his wife vanishing at a gas station."
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
"Saw The Plane with Gerard Butler. Over the top but in a good way, thought it was an enjoyable leave your brain at the door romp. Retribution on Netflix with Liam Neeson is ok. Again easy watching action fayre. Making my way through the Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films again and loving them. Haven't seen them since I was a kid and at anything between an hour and an hour and 15 minutes they are a great filler in the evening."
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
Watched the Palme d'Or 2022 winner Triangle of Sadness the other night. Thought is was excellent. Very thought provoking satirical black comedy. Very sad the stunning Chalbri Dean died only a few months before it was released. Londoner Harris Dickinson is one to look out for especially since his role in Where The Crawdads Sing. Another great movie.
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
"If any ones never seen ""Dead Man's Shoe's"" If available for free in full HD on Youtube. Its an absolute classic. ""Now the problem I have is my gear's gone, and you're talking about elephants"""

"Manuel - I should have phrased it better. Like you say it's more just flicking through chanells and it happens occasionally. That said it happens the other way as well. Tried that film called Nobody and thought it was brilliant and it was a suggestion on here. It would be boring if we all liked the same stuff. I was probably harsh calling it awful, was just not my thing, it may well be a classic to someone else, just the same as critics have different opinions. No country for old men for instance I didn't like at all although I can understand why it's considered a masterpiece by others. My favourite Hitchcock film is Rear Window but many consider Vertigo his best, which I wasn't keen on. Takes all sorts. I did enjoy A Man Called Otto though. Not sure it would have worked with anyone else but Hanks in the role."

"Zico - In your post at 6.57 you seemed to suggest it's quite regular that you'd turn a film off after 15 mins. I rarely go by directors as a guide, as you say they can make a good film and then a shit one, so I go on plot line, actors and reviews and rarely after that do I get something that I'm not expecting. Granted, if you are flicking through channels and start watching a film it can happen, but I personally don't do that."
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
"Manuel - I started it because it was on Sky and gave it a go without really seeing what it was, and it wasn't for me that's all. It's rare I turn one off. Hardly a scatty and stoned student!! I find Shyamalan a bit hit and miss. I enjoyed The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable was ok, and both The Happening and Old were enjoyable enough but thought they could have been better, but every director has films you either like or don't."

"Zico - It sounds like you just watch any old crap like some stoned student in the hope that it will be at least OK, a bit scatty and unsophisticated. I could probably count on one hand films I've started and not finished, because I always pretty much know if a film is going to be for me or not."
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
"Ha ha, fair point! As I've got older I've got little time anymore for depressing films, that's probably something top do with it and if a film doesn't grab me in the first 10/15 minutes I'll leave it. As you say each to their own."

"Knock at the Cabin directed by M. Night Shyamalan on Sky. Good god, turned it off after 15 minutes and just read the plot on Wiki. Glad I didn't continue. Bit like Marmite that Director, bloody awful film."

"MaryMillingtonsGhost 10:24 Thu Sep 14 Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022) If you like your schlock horror, The Green Inferno. Although not strictly speaking a new film, pretty grim Gave it a go, pretty hard to watch in places."

"Chim - Sightseers is funny? I actually found it disturbing, the fella was a cold blooded physcho with no redeeming features or motives whatsoever, he even had to murder the friendly old boy on the moors. Yes, only a film of course, but it freaked me out. I'm not really into brutal violence in films just for the sake of it, unless it''s a true story about a serial killer or the like. I do like that directors other films though."

Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
Just finished Saint Maud. It's excellent. Stunning for a debut directorial. Not watched Climax but Enter the void is absolutely superb. Gaspar Noe's latest film is about dementia. Not sure I'm willing to put myself through it. Trailer looks far too painful. I'd rather watch a shit hollywod war film with an endless bodycount.
Re: 2020 Movies (now including 2021 and 2022)
"Agree with emotional over 50 chim.,very odd. Have you seen climax from gasper noir, not a horror at all , but from a truly brilliant opening dance scene then just becomes one big acid trip ,felt like I'd had lsd not enjoyable but bloody intense ."
