villa4europe Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Watched cruella last night, was OK, great performances from stone and Thompson, soundtrack was good, looked good, it's too long but it's main problem is it doesn't justify itself, it didn't need to be made 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Red Notice on Netflix. The Rock, Ms Gadot (ouch) and Ryan Reynolds (ooooof). Brilliant fun from start to finish, comedy, action heist flick that was very entertaining, obviously no award winner but quality banter and jape-ing kept it fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Got jungle cruise lined up for this weekend and wasn't sure on red notice but it's the rock so it's almost inevitable Anyone watched harder they fall?

Want to watch it with my wee girl. She thinks the rock is great since we watched Jumanji . But Jumanji had some dodgy knob jokes. Is jungle cruise safe enough to watch?

RN is great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theunderstudy Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Watched The Prestige last night for probably the 9th time. Could be Nolan's best film. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remi Malek has to be the luckiest actor ever. Landed a gem of a role in Mr. Robot, got cast as Freddie Mercury which was always going to be succesful now a Bond Villain! He's a pretty hopeless actor for the most part. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted November 13, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 13, 2021 Agree with @Stevo985 about the villains motivation. WTF? I'm going to kill the world because I like plants (or were they nano-bots - never quiet worked that out.) I thought the first half of the film was really enjoyable. A bit of camp comedy from a Daniel Craig Bond worked and the Cuban fight was choreographed brilliantly. The music and the movement was almost artistic! - Arturo Sandoval playing trumpet was a nice touch. Then alas the plot just fell apart which is fairly typical I guess for a Bond. I definitely got a pang of nostalgia at the end. I think maybe it's because we just associate Bond's with different parts of our life. Roger Moore as a kid, I remember going to see Brosnan in Goldeneye as a student in London. Oh well, weird that they actually killed him. They've never done that before. Tin hat on but I really hope they don't reboot Bond as a non-binary mixed race politically correct alien. I think theres much more room in the franchise to explore other double 0's rather than reinvent James Bond. Just my old man thought though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Went to see James Bond at the Cinema: Really enjoyed it 8/10. The best bond film I have seen. Watched Dune last night at home: I super enjoyed that and thought it was very close to how I imagined things were reading the book. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I watched Dune at the cinema and then again at home. Watching it at the cinema was epic and at home just didn't do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Just now, TheAuthority said: ?? "James Bond will return" Spoiler But he won't though will he, he's dead They can't pick another actor and bring him back, they definitley can't do this thing where James bond is also a code name along with 007, they've messed with the time line enough, felix has died twice If they want to do a film with nomi then do it but she's not James Bond (and that's also a bad idea... Go TV for me if they want to do soemthing with her) Just walk away 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is as dull as a doorknob. No charisma at all. He's not even good at being dull. His generic "foreign" accent in Bond is cringe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
