I always hear people saying they rate Caddyshack above Tin Cup and Happy Gilmore, so yesterday I sat down to watch Caddyshack for the first time and turned off after 40 minutes - utter rubbish.

Have to agree with you. I saw Caddyshack in a couple of lists of top funniest movies ever, so I eventually watched it. Barely laughed twice in the whole film. Bizarre.

Caddy shack is a film that's really not aged well at all, when it was released it wa sorobably close to the mark and taking the you know what out of country clubs now its just awful. The 2nd one is even worse...

Mission Impossible Fallout - Definitely a step too far and whilst I understand we do have to suspend a certain level of belief this one had me saying "Really!?" far too many times. The distance and speed that Tom Cruise ran in this film would have him winning the 400m, 800m, 1500m, 3000m Steeplechase, 5000m, 10,000m and Marathon at any one Olympics.
We are now sadly in a period where fights, effects and chases matter more than plot and storyline.

Can't agree with the comments about Caddyshack not being funny. Still in my top 10 all-time. Did a feature on it for an American podcast last year and found some great back stories on the making of it. Rodney Dangerfield is just priceless.
But unlike most other threads here, I just accept other people's opinions and move on.

Venom. I thought it was alright. No preconceptions, just never heard of the character. Fun film.

Saw 'Yesterday' today and thoroughly enjoyed it. They kind of had me at 'Curtis, Boyle and Beatles songs'.

Yesterday. Very British, feelgood film. The two leads were excellent but the star was the manager. Apparently a SNL stalwart.

Alpha. On Sky. Not a bad film about a son of chief in early times being stranded after a rights of passage hunt, and then befriending a wolf. The UHD was very good if you like that sort of thing.
Spiderman, the latest one. Disappointing. I really enjoyed the first one but for this one they went off track, too techy, going around Europe. Focus on what the film does well, have a proper story. Okay but no more than that.
Incidentally, there are 2 extra scenes, the last one being at the very end. Don't bother waiting for the second one, it is not worth the extra 10 minutes of your life you spend waiting for the credits to end.

Watch this myself the other found it to be a little boring and bits add to just pad it out. Trying to make spiderman the new ironman as well doesn't work for me.

Forgot to write it here but we saw Toy Story 4 last Friday. Very enjoyable, good laughs throughout. Not quite as good as TS3 for me, but still a good movie.

Another plus for Yesterday, which I saw yesterday..... had us laughing out loud a few times, and despite not being a Beatles fan in any way shape or form, thoroughly enjoyed the film. The two leads were great, with good cameo's from Ed Sheeran and Sanjeev Bhasker. Lily James was an absolute sweetie, and loved some of the song renditions from Himesh Patel. It's standard Richard Curtis, a good feel good movie.

Captain Black, an interesting light unusual comedy drama, nothing too exciting but worth a watch.

Watched the new Disney Aladdin movie today with the kids. Absolutely horrendous film, the actors were all terrible it struggled to follow the original plot & it felt like Will Smith was struggling to even bring any semblance of talent to the film as his genie was as bad as the rest of the cast. Even the kids said how bad it was
