Without Remorse. Based on the Tom Clancy novel from 1993, which quite frankly is head and shoulders above the film.

Used to be a fan of the Tom Clancy Jack Ryan books, John Kelly (Clark) was always a cool character in the books, but not so much in what was just about an OK film. A stretch from the original story, wouldn't go out of my way for it.

 

[Blue in Munich]

A rare thing this evening. Watched a film from start to finish and got very engrossed in it. Unhinged with Russell Crowe.

When did he get so fat?!

He was brilliant in that, it is a film that grabs you.

He was so vicious and played that brilliantly!

 

[Blue in Munich]

He was so vicious and played that brilliantly!

Yup, you wouldn't have argued with him.

 

[Blue in Munich]

Unhinged; a road rage based thriller with Russell Crowe as the man of the title. He is very convincing & it's not a bad watch.

Ahem...

Promising Young Woman - excellent. Two nights, two great films...it'll never last!

We've just watched it, what a great film, much much better than the trailer suggests. Almost had a hint of David Lynch about it.

I watched Cosmic Sin

Rare bit of Sci Fi on sky cinema

Fairly good escapism but a bit shaky on why are they doing that and exactly what are they doing in the first place but I still enjoyed it. Good old Bruce Willis doing his tough man bit.

Has he ever been really slim or was it just an illusion. I can remember him in the Nice Guys and he was putting on then.

What did you watch it on?

Agree Amanda, we did the same - Unhinged and then Promising Young Woman. Both very good, but felt Unhinged edged it.

Agreed. There was just something about his viciousness, without remorse, which was the same regardless of the victim which was weirdly captivating!

I'm still in shock that I haven't started 4 films and only finished 1 for two successive evenings

Stuck with Made In Italy on Prime but only just...nepotism at its finest.

Nobody, a 2021 film staring Bob Odenkirk ,[ from Better Call Saul ] well worth a watch

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Love and Monsters on Netflix. A shameless rip off of Zombieland but harmless enough and easy on the brain.

Look out for the sequels: Turks & Caicos and Salting the Battlefield
The Woricker Trilogy is one of my favourite tv series

Watched Turks & Caicos last night. Really enjoyed it
