More practical effects than I was expecting I wasn’t that fussed about it, wasn’t a bad film but easily forgettable I thought. Maybe because I’m not into the D&D thing so maybe I missed some in-jokes. It was definitely watchable though just didn’t grip me.

The only thing you need to see the previous movie for is in a filmmaking class on what not to do when you want to make a film. This stands alone and is far far far far far far better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted April 14, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 14, 2023 Just got back from watching this... It's a lot of fun, entertaining, gory and the three central performances from Hoult, Cage and Awkwafina are all top notch (all clearly having a great time with Cage unsurprisingly and literally chewing the scenery) It's also surprisingly quite touching and reflective in parts, although the central theme of toxic relationships and co-dependency does tend to get lost amongst the OTT bloody fight scenes. Enjoyable saftness. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tomav84 Posted April 14, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2023 nobody on netflix. i'm probably late to the party as was released in 2021 but one of the most enjoyable action films i've seen in years. sequal in the making i hear too. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted April 15, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 15, 2023 wow 65 was a bag of shite. as someone with a mild obsession with the JP/JW films it takes a bad dinosaur film for me not to like it but jeez it was terrible. awful premise, even more awfully executed. i get it's a fantasy movie but had so many plot holes i don't even know where to start. avoid like the plague...even if you're a dino movie fan, just avoid. it'll just annoy you.

villa4europe Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Watching the paw patrol film with the daughter Its kind of weirdly brilliant how they've upgraded the animation, shit that they've changed the voice actors and I'm cynical over everything PP because I've seen the tat involved with it To me it's almost like when I first watched the power rangers film all those years ago it that it has the polish but on it but deep down its still the same silly thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Watched Operation Fortune - the latest from Guy Ritchie. It should have been a lot better than it was with the cast available but somehow it didn’t quite hit the mark with the humour or action that it promised. Not entirely bad but more so disappointing.

Very good film and a big nod to fans of Hereditary Yeah very good horror, very unsettling. The director has made a kind of remake/reboot called Malum which is due this year. I'll definitely be checking that out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desensitized43 Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Just watched seven kings must die. Enjoyable if very rushed ending to the last kingdom. Would have preferred another season if I’m honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted April 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2023 Evil Dead Rise getting very positive reviews which I'm chuffed about. From what I've seen in the trailers and read online it's a far darker and less humorous movie than previous entries. Tickets booked for Friday and I'm already hyped 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn;t read the books so I didn't have that issue. Really enjoyed The Last Kingdom though, particularly when it left BBC and was picked up on Netflix it became much more polished. Clearly a much bigger budget as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
