villakram Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Network (1976): Excellent stuff and pretty interesting given the way modern media and news has evolved. The Wrestler (2008): Finally got around to seeing this. A great watch. Mickey Rourke also puts in a pretty good showing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Anyone watched the new metal version of It's all gone Pete Tong? It's called Sound of Metal and has gotten good reviews but I have a feeling I won't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Just now, theboyangel said: Have heard promising things about this and quite like Riz Ahmed (particularly after The Night Of) Me too, and he's been getting very good reviews on this, Oscar mentions even. I just have a feeling I won't like this one. Probably because I expect them to not get the metal part to feel genuine. Bit like when history nerds or military guys point out inaccuracies I guess . But maybe that part is only a frame for the drama which might still be good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 9, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Just watched Promising Young Woman and thought it was absolutely brilliant. Best film I've seen in a while. Recommended. Edited January 9, 2021 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Nolan has out Christopher Nolan'd himself by producing a great looking, well acted film that is borderline incoherent and makes less sense than a Trump supporter! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Watched "Richard Jewell" last night. Superb cast, great movie, recommended. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Watched Contagion this morning, whilst doing the ironing (living the dream). Although a much more severe disease than Covid-19, there were a lot of similarities in how it spread and the steps taken to stop it. Add in some looting for effect and it was okay. I was with it all the way up until they decided the best way to prioritise the vaccine was to draw a lottery. Wtf was that all about? The other thing that surprised me is that the torys didn’t copy this and charge £10,000 for a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted January 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) Finally watched “Dead Man’s Shoes” last night. I know it’s highly regarded on here so was glad to finally get round to it. Interesting. This sounds like faint praise but in places it felt to me what it would be like if Nick Love made a good film. It was curious as it felt like it was being shown more from the antagonists’ perspective. I like Toby Kebbell, if I’m honest, I wasn’t sure about his mentally challenged character. Not sure it would have been done the same way if they made it today. Edited January 10, 2021 by Mark Albrighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We watched this a couple of weeks back and it was a pretty surreal experience given the state of the world right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
