Has Now Found His Wedgie
The Mountain Between Us. A pretty formulaic survival come love story. Not the worst film ever, made better by Idris Elba, Kate Winslet and the dog.

It wasn’t great but it wasn’t terrible. About a 6/10. I won’t say why as I don’t want to spoil it for anyone. There are not many new films about at the moment so give it a go.

Finding anything decent and appealing that i haven't seen is hard - and one that the Mrs will waitch makes it harder still
Found this one last night on Amazon - Unlocked with Naomi Rapace, who i think is one of the best actresses out there. get's a 6.3 on IMDB but i would give it a 7 and is well worth a watch in this TV/Film starved dystopian wilderness!

Best line for me is on the plane with Uncle Frank attempting to comfort a distraught mother who forgot her son - "if it's any consolation I forgot my reading glasses". ?
watched El Cid, not seen it in years

The whole film is intriguing
Watching as an adult you wonder would Kevin be done for murder because he encouraged them in and then they would have died lol
Also the back story
10 million dollar budget by Warner brothers . Ended up moving to 20th century fox when the budget rose and rose (18 in end)
Box off 477 million!!
Whoops
I love that film, I've recorded it. A real 'they don't make them like that anymore ' film. Wonderful stuff and Sophia Loren never looked better ?

I thought it was really good. But it really does depend on what you want from a sci-fi. Explosions, drama, Hollywood script and ending, or something relatively simple. If the latter, then fine. Some will find it boring, akin to Ad Astra, which I liked too.

My Octopus Teacher on Netflix - not a usual Christmas blockbuster, if you fancy something different I enjoyed it

Just finished watching it, we really enjoyed it as well. I'm not really a fan of Michael Bay esque crash bang wallop films, The Midnight Sky was right up my street though ?

Watched Happy Death Day, a sort of tongue-in-cheek horror comedy, bit of a Groundhog Day rip off except it's a girl who gets murdered every time then wakes up repeating the same day. It was pretty entertaining if you overlook the gaping plot holes that cropped up from time to time.

A couple daft but OK comedies, neither brilliant, both a bit cliched but both made us chuckle in parts.
Eurotrip - Teenage guy joins friends on trip to Europe to find his German pen pal.
Hall Pass - Owen Wilson & Jason Sudekis as two blokes given a week off from their respective marriages to do whatever they want.

How It Ends on Netflix. Apocalyptic thriller. Good in places and a slightly strange “oh?” ending.
Downfall. It’s been on my sky box for ages and finally sat down to watch it today
A thoroughly enjoyable film given its subject
