Films

Watched The Gentlemen last night for the second time, after being a bit disappointed with it at the cinema. Thought I’d give it another watch, and enjoyed it much more the second time.

Can‘t really explain why, though. Maybe it’s like playing a well hyped golf course that completely underwhelms you on a first visit (for me, Royal St George’s), but you enjoy it the second time when you revisit with lower expectations.
 
The Kid Who Would Be King.
My missus made me watch this last night. Tried hard but really failed to succeed. Just didn't grab. Whether that was the storyline, script or acting I'm not sure. Maybe a combination. Admittedly made for kids who may like it.

Really enjoyed this as well, it was an interesting concept but they really pulled it off.
Didn't have that sports film you recommended on my firestick unfortunately but I'm keeping an eye out for it

I definitely watched it on my Firestick but I've had to change apps as Cinema APK and the other one I used seemed to have stop working.

They have a habit of doing that, seeing as they are illegal, I did check out Prime for your recommendation and it's only a quid, not got around to watching it yet.
Watched the Lance Armstrong one the other night, yes, I enjoyed it, recommended especially if an interest in sport.
 
Couple old favs of mine.....Stardust (on Amazon but costs money, I have the disc) and Men with Brooms. I had Men with Brooms on video but sold it when we moved back. Mystery Alaska is pretty good, also on Amazon but costs a couple of Pounds.

Stardust, the missus loves it, I always secretly have an eye on it when she's watching it ?
The song by Take That at the end is a classic.
 
Watched Da 5 Bloods earlier after seeing it advertised all over the place.
I won't be falling for that one again, was kinda ok but ultimately rubbish, the missus fell asleep half way through which says it all really ?
There was some tough footage in there but I couldn't make out if it was a black comedy with a message or a serious piece of work. And when the guy from The Wire said his line (you'll know when you see it) I switched off completely.
 
Thanks
