Rodders Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Rewatched All The Presidents Men last night. Hadn't seen it in a long time. Really gripping and I'll be revisiting the book. Please god let there be a modern version of this tale appearing in the next 2-3 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Bright - Will Smith (Netflix) Easily one of the worst films I have ever seen. Did not even finish it, shocking. There is nothing to say about it apart from it's for the under 12's but even my 12 year old self would have binned this. I am sure this is a remake of something from the late 80's where an alien guy is a copper ? 0/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 This is a movie in which Will Smith is a police officer who *peers over glasses, checks description carefully* is partnered with an orc, in an *checks again* 'odd couple comedy'. Hmm. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm. It was a comedy in the same way "Acorn Antiques" was I think. It's the stuff in the background that was the funniest I suppose. It was very "School play" at best. Putting a weird thing with a weird thing together has been done, If a film can beat putting "Karl Dilkington and Warren Davies" together for a holiday programme then good one, otherwise, forget it. I am still angry about the film now, 2 days later and I only watched 75% of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand Same. I only know two people who have seen it but they both said it was good. Reviews are awful though. Rotten Tomatoes gives a critics score of 20% and an audience rating of 89%! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 It’s one of those films where, as much as I try, I genuinely can’t understand how anyone could enjoy it. It was easily the worst film I saw last year. I hadn’t read any reviews going into it but it was just so badly made in every way. An absolute cluster**** of a movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stegzy Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Just watched Three Billboards outside Epping, Missouri and blown away, what a gripping movie, certainly in my top 10 of all time, and I watch a lot of movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Bright was ok, Just seems to be another one of those things it is fashionable to hate on twitter for some reason, They have already confirmed a sequel too so that will give people something else to moan about. Really enjoyed Three Billboards, There are not enough movies that contain people getting kicked in the C word removed Edited January 3, 2018 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 bright has done what netflix needed though, watched by a lot of people which is purely how netflix measures success...dont quite know how netflix's business model works in regards to films, cant see someone taking out a subscription to watch 1 film...they've confirmed its getting a sequel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Molly’s game tonight , the story was interesting ( I’ll shortly be verifying via google to see how much artistic license was taken ) .. thought the chemistry with Elba and Chastain was good shame they couldn’t have got TM to play himself , I mean Mr x Easily the best film I’ve seen in 2018 so far though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unlikely someone will sign up for one film. But if Netflix make 20 films, that you can only see on Netflix (legally), then people are more likely to sign up.
