Ingram85 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Watched a great little film called Cold in July last night with that chap from dexter and Don Johnson. Bloke accidentally shoots a burglar and then it unfolds from there. Really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonnes of nods to early Carpenter though, which is never a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 27, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 27, 2017 I watched 5 films on Saturday: Supersonic - Oasis documentary. Great fun. The nineties were **** brilliant The Edge of Seventeen - coming of age film done right. Female protagonist battling with being a loner and losing her father during highschool. Very much a feelgood film Hail, Caesar - wanted to like it more than I did. Brilliantly made as usual from the Coens and had lots of great moments (For what that it were so simple), but ultimately didn't hold my attention as much as I'd liked. I was battling through it at the end, although being on the end of a solid 3 film marathon probably didn't help. School of Rock - just watched this because it was on. Love this movie. Nothing high brow or revolutionary, just good fun. One of Jack Black's better efforts. This is England - nothing to say really. Stone cold classic, even on the 6th or 7th viewing. Brilliant. I intended to watch Dead Man's Shoes after TIE as it was on the telly straight after, but I couldn't face another film at that time. Save that for another day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can normally only take him in small doses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted March 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted March 27, 2017 I think @Stevo985 was right not to watch it after a marathon, as he wouldn't have got the most out of it. It's a superb film. One of my favourites too. Best watched when you're ready to give it the full attention it deserves. But do get on it quickly man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 27, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 27, 2017 Yep, I'd have almost certainly fallen asleep, which would have put me off watching it again as I'd have to start from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 people moan about too many comic book films but never mentioned that in last few years that Hollywood has produced similar enough sci-fi films in last 5 years. Not all are bad but nothing classic out of Interstellar, Prometheus, Life, The Martian, Arrival, new Alien, Gravity, Passengers all seem to copy/steal from each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still not sure if I liked it or not. Rangers were OK and Rita was good but Zordon came across as a bit of a dick. so disappointed with Goldar though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumping them in with Prometheus and Passengers is plain insulting tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted March 28, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 28, 2017 Traditional gives away the entire plot trailer. Sony most have put this together because Marvel usually avoid giving too much away until the film is more or less out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
