I enjoyed John Wick 1. Mindless but a load of fun. Is there more carnage in this one?

Question, John Wick v Denzel Washington as The Equalizer. Who wins? Ha ha.
 
Lion is worth a watch, based on a true story about an Indian boy who gets lost then taken to an orphanage. Sent to Australia to live with a new family, goes looking for his real parents when he gets older.

Found Lion a bit so-so. I enjoyed his earlier life - but found his life in Australia a bit ...

And whilst it might have been true - the way he identified his village...well - it was all a bit easy and an anti-climax - if there can be an anti-climax in a 'true-life' story.

But the early life aspects in Inaia I did enjoy (as I find India fascinating)
 
Currently watching the most recent Jack Reacher film, "Never Go Back." Enjoyed the first Reacher movie, which got me into the books. That was a bad idea. Could quite happily turn off the current movie.

At least the second large glass of Old Pulteney is helping.
 
Just watching The Boat that Rocked, brings back memories of 1964 listening to Radio Caroline.
The good old days :whoo:

I just watched that last night, or should I say, I sang along to it!

Great fun, great cast & an even greater soundtrack!
