I thought this thread needed resurrecting as a break from the political ones. Saw GotG 2 at the weekend. Great fun. Not as good as the first but worth it purely for the opening sequence of baby Groot dancing admist the carnage going on around him. Drax gets the best lines, great character. The music is spot on and I'm already tempted to go and see it again.

Some really good looking trailers, Kingsman 2, Thor, The Mummy, Baywatch (don't judge it looked funny), Wonder Woman (again, don't judge until you see the trailer). Some big blockbuster films coming up if you like that sort of thing, I do

Saw Passengers the other day. Really liked it. Verging on cheesy in some places, yet liked the premise and the effects.

 

[Hobbit]

Assassins Creed.... what on earth was that all about? My head hurts just trying to keep up. Won't rush to watch it again.

I watched the 2nd one last night and it's great! It's was very funny and enough action to keep you watching. Highly recommend it ☺

Yep - saw it first week out. thoroughly enjoyed it, very funny in parts, some laugh out loud moments that had the whole audience laughing. I'd venture it's as good as the first (which I watched again the weekend before), if not a little better. Even if you're not a Marvel fan, it's good entertainment.

am I the only person to think that guardians is a load of tosh ,I really couldnt get into the film one bit ,it is totally rubbish in my eyes .but obviously i am in the minority .
im sure it is an ok film and no.2 is equally regarded as such ,but i will never know as one was more than enough.

Anyone seen the comedian with de niro, the ending is quality

Not for young ears, one or two (hundred) F-bombs dropped .

You are not alone. Absolute tosh.

First one started ok but bored the t1ts off me after a bit, the story just dragged on I felt and the jokes wore thin.
2nd one didn't get a great review from The Doctor and I won't bother watching it.

You expected the good Dr to like a marvel film? No subtitles, too much humour, too many people leaving with a smile on their faces. They are good, fun, escapist films. All washed down with a cracking sound track.

He gave the first one a great review IIRC, just wasn't for me mate, and I'd been really looking forward to it. Had a generic storyline and I'm pretty sure I fell asleep before the long winded ending eventually happened

Watched Get Out last night - thought is was pretty good, bit too far fetched for me though on what could have been a good premise.

 

[Reemul]

Saw Alien Covenant on Monday and it was crap..

I thought it might be. Shame really.

 

[Kellfire]

Covenant was an incredibly slow burn. I enjoyed it but it was nowhere near as good as I expected.

I couldn't get into to it. I may try again one day but not rushing tbh.

Just watched Little Miss Sunshine again, I forgot was an absolutely superb film it is, 10/10.

 

[Blue in Munich]

Miss Sloane. Very good political thriller with some good twists.

 

[Beezerk]

I'm on a roll, Lion was a massive surprise, absolutely stunning film.

Just got back from watching Alien: Covenant, Excellent film, Ridley Scott brings the Alien franchise back to greatness with this beaut. Plenty of blood and gore with a few jump scares thrown in, and a couple of nods to the original in there as well, for good measure. Go see it. Recommend it, 5*`s
