But after a google it looks like the kind of movie @Xela would watch. So I’m out. The thing is if I had googled it first which I normally almost always do then I wouldn't have bothered watching it. But as id heard of the murders I thought I'd give it a go and it was actually quite watchable! 3 hours ago, Zatman said: they somehow managed to make 3 Rise of the Footsoldiers I couldn't watch another one though.

Not a single redeeming feature on the whole thing. Utterly awful shit. It's Goodfellas compared to the sequel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted February 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2018 Hmmm that scene lacks the subtlety of Craig Fairbrass’ earlier film work. “You’re a loudmouth punk slag....who’s about to die.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted February 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2018 Watching Justice League at the minute. If it was up to me I'd turn it off right now. What a load of cobblers this is. The Villain and the bug enemies are so incredibly boring, and who the **** is this cyborg character? Utterly shite . If it wasn't for the odd close up of Wonder Woman's arse I'd give this a 0/10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep an eye on Superman's top lip. $25m there allegedly (and this week it was reported a home PC and a simple program did the job better). And the film was such a mess the CGI was clearly rushed as they fixed things last minute. I'd be interested in seeing Snyder's original version. It probably wouldn't be good but I wonder if it would have been less all over the place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted February 10, 2018 Moderator Share Posted February 10, 2018 Another thumbs up for Wind River here. Proper movie, and resisted the urge to add the seemingly obligatory 45 minutes of unnecessary self-indulgence too. Cracked along at a decent pace without being an overly wrought plot. Nicely done. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted February 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2018 Watched this kitchen sink classic for the first time the other night. Very good, particularly the ending. Much better than “Look Back in Anger” which I couldn’t get through. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted February 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) Talking of the 'kitchen sink' era. Managed to pick up 'Cathy come home' for a quid on DVD the other day. What a brilliant piece of work from Sandford and Ken Loach. Its not hard to see why Loach in particular has gone on to such a distinctive career. It's also sad to see that many of the issues raised still haven't been completely eradicated today.

sheepyvillian Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Just saw "The Shape of Water". Only Del Toro could take such an absurd storyline and make it so poignant. Sally Hawkins deserves an Oscar. What a wonderfully, moving, film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason Loach, hasn't been knighted, is because he'd tell them to stick it up their Harris. What a champion for the downtrodden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I love Loach. I've often wondered why our town doesn't do a bit more to put his name about, we only ever hear about old George with regards to our greatest exports, but I'd suggest he is as important on the global stage. As far as I know there's nothing anywhere that would tell you he's from here. Nothing in the museum, none of those fancy blue placard things. Or perhaps that is at his request. Here's a really nice interview with him conducted at the new Nuneaton Town ground, he talks about his memories of football at the old ground, his childhood, his career, amongst other things. You really get a taste for how all of his experiences shaped his body of work in various ways. He mentions briefly the idea if doing a football documentary, centering on the way the club influences the local community at the 'grassroots' level. Looking for Eric was ok, but something closer to his heart would be really special. Do want! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
