Niiice. I’m a huge Bond fan as well.

The movie is not really a "thriller" or suspenseful heist story. It's more of a character piece. It's an okay movie overall, entertaining with some flaws.

I like Evan Peters. He was good in American Horror Story.

Life. Pretty good, the whole cast performs well, not just Gyllenhaal - my main reason for wanting to see it.

Bit dissappointing and i love a bug movie. They are just WAY WAY WAY too lax, if we really found life they'd have made at least some attempt to lock the fucker down.

He has a prominent role in American Animals. He's good I thought. He kept reminding me of a friend I had in college who was charismatic but also unreliable and sometimes just witless and self-destructive. Also the real person he is portraying appears in the film, and it's interesting to see his performance next to the real person.

Night House.

I had high expectations for this movie due to the lead actress, writer, and director. Unfortunately, it was a waste of time.

Has no one else seen the new 007 movie? Watched it Wednesday night and it was great!! Perfect ending IMO.

My brother and nephew saw it yesterday, both of them loved it but said it was a sad but good ending. Apparently my nephew started to cry. I haven't kept up at all with what happens so I'll be interested in watching it asap.

I didn’t want to spoil anything by mentioning the ending but will add my thoughts here. Warning: spoiler alert!!!

I was sad too. I didn’t cry or anything like that (I never do in movies). But that ending hit me harder than I expected. Actually had a little trouble sleeping that night thinking about how sad it was. It was perfect, emotional, good send off, and at the same time the end of an era and love story. I was okay with Daniel Craig as 007 and now I am a big fan (aside from Pierce Brosnan).

As I am immobilised after my skateboard injury, I watched a few older films this weekend. A couple of Hitchcock’s today and on Saturday, a fantastic Roland Joffé film, starring Robert De Niro and Jeremy Irons: The Mission.

Beautiful film and superb soundtrack .. highly recommend it, if you haven’t seen it.

Watched The Favourite tonight, very interesting plot, didn't actually realize that a lot of it was based on real people/rumors. Overall really enjoyable, with slight bits of humor here and there, but mainly a period drama, and excellent acting from Olivia Colman, Rachel Weisz, and Emma Stone.

Well described. A true masterpiece! One of very few I own.

Saw it Friday with the wife. We both absolutely loved it. End was sad, but I believe it was well done for Daniel Craig as James Bond.

Psychological thriller

Esteban · 10-13-2021, 10:53 AM

Watched Cruella the other day. At first I didn't like it but it got better. I especially liked the ending. The two Emmas were both good. The little dog Wink was very cute. Read that five dogs played that part. They were all cute. Emma Stone was one of the executive producers. Good for her.

selbyp93 · 10-14-2021, 08:24 AM

Haven't got the chance to watch the new 007. But the most recent that I watched is Free Guy by Ryan Reynolds. It was kinda fun. Abit ridiculous in some parts, but still a good movie to watch.

Blindside_137 · 10-16-2021, 07:27 AM

Venom carnage was a letdown. Seeing bond later today and really looking forward to it.

Our03z4 · 10-16-2021, 05:02 PM

Just got done watching The Forgotten Battle on Netflix. Very well done and highly recommend it.

If I do have to choose and name one of the movies I like. It would be "Divergent". Throughout the film I kept thinking it was a reinterpretation of "The Hunger Games. A single theme of a handful of people going against centuries of established rules. But at the same time as in the movie "Time" is not fully disclosed theme.
