One Battle After Another. Absolute tosh .

I should have stuck to my guns and done my usual of avoiding Oscar films

That comment made me do a quick skim through Oscar winning films and surprised myself with just how many I have watched (only 7 of the this centuries not watched).

Some I know I would not watch as they are simply not the genre of film I would watch anyway.

Shelter - Latest Jason Statham film, lots of action, killings, fights, etc etc,

Pretty similar to lots of his previous films, detach brain for 1hr 45mins and enjoy.

Absolutely agree with this precis.

Roofman (Sky). Read as an odd synopsis and the image alongside the film is daft BUT it was really good. Based on a true story.

Watched a couple of films on a long flight yesterday.

F1. Brad Pitt as a washed up racing driver who makes a comeback in F1 after 30 years. Enjoyable enough but every single race features Pitt doing stuff which so ludicrous it would never happen in real life.

Back to Black. Amy Winehouse biopic. The girl who plays Amy is really good. However it grated a bit the way her dad was portrayed as a total good guy. From what I remember at the time, that wasn’t really the case, he kept pushing her to do stuff when she was at her lowest ebb, and that didn’t help her at all.

Greenland (Prime)
Post apocalypse survival film.

Just how many things to overcome can a writer think of.

Do not expect much realism with this one.

Don't bother with the 2nd one, it's even more ridiculous

We got part way through the second one and gave up…

Apex on Netflix. A bit silly at times but enough "ooh, ouch" moments to keep me watching.

I was surprised. The bad guy was a fruitcake...scary but believable.

I thought he played the part well.
Didn’t realise it was him out of Kingsman.
Definitely one of the better films I’ve watched recently.
Been some right out.
