Films

Just watched Nativity with Martin Freeman, was excellent really enjoyed it.

Also watched Bad Santa for the second time, great film, rude, filthy, loads of swearing etc. Really made me laugh.
 
Took my lad for our annual visit to the cinema (it’s too expensive imo) to see The Last Jedi. A little long and had a couple of obvious plot holes (but don’t all the Star Wars films), but enjoyed it.

Yesterday as we desperately needed a rest we watched :-

Uncle Buck - Awesome Film
Scrooged - Bill Murray carries the whole film. Brilliant
Galaxy Quest - Just fantastic performances from all the cast and a superb film!

We laughed all day and night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and we've seen these films at least 10 times each !!!!!!!!!!!

It's Jumanji or The Greatest Showman for me and Mrs SiLH on Hogmanay - any thoughts? Former looks a good bit of fun - latter - well it looks a bit Moulin Rougish and 'she to be obeyed' rather enjoyed that one.

Saw The Greatest Showman last night; pleasantly entertaining, although the musical aspect grated a bit as it seems to be the one song rehashed most of the way through and sounded a bit "Take That". Personally I'd go for Jumanji, bit of a slow start until they find the game machine during detention when it quickly picks up, but neither will disappoint imo.

Molly's Game. Style a bit reminiscent of The Big Short for those who have seen it, it tells the story of a world class skier whose career was cut short by accident and who ends up organising high stakes poker games before being busted by the FBI. Very interesting & enjoyable for me, Mrs BiM not so keen.
 
Two disappointments. Star Trek Beyond. Forgot about characters and went for big chases, fights scenes, CGI. I've really enjoyed the Star Trek revival but this was a poor one.

Logan. Blimey that should come with a warning. Relentlessly grim, a slog, incredibly violent, morally questionable.
 
Found a really clever sci-fi film on Netflix - "Infinity Chamber" - not high budget but really clever with lots of twists. Really recommend this and having looked up more about the film, was critically acclaimed too.
 
Watched "The Love Punch" on ITV yesterday. Never heard of it before, but with Pierce Brosnan, Emma Thompson, Tim Spall and Celia Imrie it was always worth a punt. A gentle comedy caper, a little predictable but thoroughly enjoyed it for a Sunday evening.
