Films

Watched Baby Driver last night. Worth watching for the brilliant soundtrack alone, terrific film, great pace and innovative filming styles, hooked from first scene. Had a touch of the Pulp Fictions about it wrt style I thought.


Oh and Kevin Spacey is in it, but not excessively - didn't bother me tbh,

Yes, I loved it and was lucky enough to see it when it was still OK to like Kevin Spacey.
 
The Great Wall - decided to give it a go as I have Sky Movies. Entertaining but pretty crap. Chinese version of Starship Troopers.

Did watch the documentary about the Williams F1 team that is on Netflix. Very well made with great insight from the people inside the team. Frank Williams did come across as a complete two-timing arse though.
 
Saw The Death of Stalin over the weekend. Cracking film, quite dark in places, not the out and out comedy I was expecting, but brilliantly written and some great performances.
 
Paddington. Aaaahhhhhhhhhh. Watch it feel better about the world.

Worth it for the window washing scenes alone.

Anyone seen Murder on the Orient Express yet? Quite fancy it but heard nothing about it.

It’s okay but no more. A bit slow. The general consensus amongst those who saw the Graham Norton show with the cast on it was that they had more fun making it than we did watching it.
 
Well, that's only the second film I've seen, beginning to end, since 1975!

Paddington 2 - and I just loved it, a real feel good film and super duper animation.
