AVFCDAN Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I remember someone mentioned Revenge on here recently. I really enjoyed it and thought it was really well shot also the main girl was very good looking which helped. If anyone is looking for something similar I recommend I Spit on Your Grave remake from 2010 I think. That's even more brutal but the "revenge" is probably even more satisfying.

Chindie Posted May 29, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 29, 2018 Jamie Foxx is going to play the title role in McFarlane's Spawn reboot (if you can call it that). Will be a surprise if it actually happens, McFarlane has been trying to do a reboot of the character for about 15 years. Nobody actually gives a **** about Spawn, and McFarlane is a hack who could draw Spider-Man well and little else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pooligan Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Battle Ground (2013) Certainly not a film that will stay in my memory for long but was ok to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a couple of Batman/Spawn one-shots and they were ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villakram Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Red Sparrow: Solid 7/10 action intrigue flick, with a particularly inventive form of torture on display. The Post: Another very watchable movie, retelling the story of the pentagon papers from the journo perspective. Well worth checking out the Ellsberg documentary from a few years back to compliment this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 got around to Deadpool 2 last night giggled like a school boy during lots of it , some great lines in it and the usual stupidity that appeals to me ....great fun but it’s a bit like going to see a comedy act where you spend the entire show genuinely laughing out loud and can’t remember a single gag by the time you get to the car park i imagine it’s not for everyone , but I like how he sends himself up , the green lantern end credits scene etc ... can’t wait for DP3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Just been reading the initial reviews for Upgrade directed by Leigh Whannel of the Saw and Insidious series. Sounds very promising but the UK release date is end of August... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Watched A Quiet Place tonight. Superb stuff. Creditable mostly for the fact the audience were a bunch of absolutely rocket polishers. Code breaking scum. Phones, loud talking and laughter throughout along with all the rustling etc which is all the more noticeable here but still I enjoyed the film. Looking forward to seeing it at home on DVD unspoiled by those **** shits Edited June 1, 2018 by Rodders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted June 2, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) Over the last couple of days I've got round to watching a couple of films I intended to see in the cinema upon release but never did. The first was Dunkirk, and I think it was a good time to watch it, without all the hype behind it. I wouldn't put it up there with my favourites but it clearly was a very good film and impressively made. The second was The Big Sick. Really enjoyed that - great story and likeable characters.

I re-watched Dunkirk the other day and whilst it was still 'ok', seeing it in IMAX when it came out really made it. The sound was 50% of the movie for me. It lost a lot of impact on the small screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I didn't get to see at the cinema and was a bit disappointed with it when I watched it at home. I watched The Eichmann Show the other day. It wasn't the greatest film I'll ever watch but it had a bit where they showed some of the footage from concentration camps which were far more graphic than anything I'd ever seen before. I won't be forgetting it in a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Id probably say it was more than 50%, i saw it in imax it was so loud! Bullets were one thing the noise of the stukas was incredible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted June 3, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 3, 2018 I did have the soundbar turned up because I'd read that the audio was incredible (definitely true!) and was watching it in Dolby Vision, but yeah I do still regret not experiencing it at the cinema. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Watched the new Tomb Raider with Alicia Vikander. She's stunning, the film is not terrible but not particularly good either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an amazing cinematic experience, but in fairness Nolan does intentionally want to exploit the spectacle opportunities with cinema, sometimes at the expense of narrative. Watched Miss Sloane last night - about lobbying in America, taking on the gun industry. Good cast, but it is all about Jessica Chastain hauling the film together as the script and the plot goes a bit messy at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
