My apologies

[Herzog]

Currently watching an old Ewar Woowar series called 1990. 

"Drama set in an nightmarish "1984"-style future, where government bureaucracy has run riot."

8.1/10 on - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075469/?ref_=ttep_ep_tt

All episodes on Youtube. Episode 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2DL9-Bx1ME

Quite enjoying it.

Elite Squad: the Enemy Within - 8/10

Brazilian film about a cop out to get drug dealers, and then corrupt politicians in Rio. Pretty great.

[Grooto Toure]

Fast 7 - 7/10

I enjoyed it but as Roger said some of it is utterly ridiculous but good fun.

Definitely one to switch your mind off before you walk in

I said it was ridiculously emotional. If I wasn't with my pal I'd have been greetin in the cinema. He says the same.

Fear (1990)

"Psychic Cayce Bridges helps police solve murders by mentally linking with the murderer. Then she discovers a murderer with the same talent - who wants to share the fear of his victims with her."

One of those forgotten 90's gems. Enjoyable thriller starring Ally Sheedy.

7/10 for me.

Got free tickets to a premier of A Little Chaos.

Alan Rickman film about gardeners in love during the development of Versailles. The 5 or 6 main actors are all very impressive and there are few scenes that don't do their job, but the whole was very much worth less than the sum of its parts. I guess it lost impetus 2/3s of the way through as it got deeper in to the courtly life of the closeted world of Versailles under the sun king. Listening to others leaving, i think i got more from it as a period piece/thesp's folly than they did as a bit of romantic fluff.

6/10

Good Kill - 7/10

Interesting look at the ethical concerns surrounding America's use of drones in Afghanistan. Scary shit like. Ethan Hawke is class in it.

Judgment Night (1993).

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107286/?ref_=nv_sr_1

"Three friends on their way to a boxing match get caught in heavy traffic, so they take a shortcut in order to get there faster, unfortunately it leads to them witnessing a murder which leaves them running for their lives."

Starring: Emilio Estevez, Jr. Cuba Gooding, Denis Leary, and Stephen Dorff.

Another one of those 90's gems.

Woman in front of us walked out before the end. It was very emotional and they handled it way better than I thought they would.

The actual film was excellent and probably the best in the series, some of the set pieces were jaw dropping.

Some of it was quite unnerving. Especially the last beach/car scenes which were filmed after his death. It's his brothers playing him with his face CGI'd on top. It kind of gave him that vacant look which was slightly unsettling. Particularly when he's chatting to Dom in the cars.

John Wick

Like a well made, big budget version of a shite, low budget revenge movie. Perfect for what it is.

8/10

Pair wee dug though.

Honestly one of the best films I've seen in a long long time.

Honestly one of the best films I've seen in a long long time.

I may even up it to a 9/10 given i'd forgotten the soundtrack was pretty good. Even Manson's tune was brilliant.

I guess my enjoyment of the film was spoiled by the auld boy in front of me who turned around after 10 minutes and said "d'you want to stop pushing my chair?". I had an aisle seat and my legs were clearly nowhere near his seat as i'd stretched in to the space, so i motioned to them and said, "i've no touched your seat at any point, sir". A couple more times he cocked his head to the side as if to have a go at me, so i decided, on returning from the toilet, to sit on the other side of my wife. Anyway, another five minutes pass and the guy turns around to give it both barrels and notes there's no one behind him.

Either he's paid extra for a vibrating chair and doesnt know it or his wife has parkinson's but hasn't had the guts to tell him yet.

Really?   That's very disappointing, had high hopes for it.

Aye me too, given that Hardy & Rapace were fantastic together in The Drop, tbf the story is the let down not the acting.
