Me Before You (2016)

Young and quirky Louisa "Lou" Clark (Emilia Clarke) moves from one job to the next to help her family make ends meet. Her cheerful attitude is put to the test when she becomes a caregiver for Will Traynor (Sam Claflin), a wealthy young banker left paralyzed from an accident two years earlier. Will's cynical outlook starts to change when Louisa shows him that life is worth living. As their bond deepens, their lives and hearts change in ways neither one could have imagined.

Yes, not too bad a film. Someone suggested it was a 'chick flick' but I didn't think so.
Watch given the opportunity. 7.5/10

Mamma Mia! (2008)

Set on a colorful Greek island, the plot serves as a background for a wealth of ABBA songs. A young woman about to be married discovers that any one of three men could be her father. She invites all three to the wedding without telling her mother, Donna, who was once the lead singer of Donna and the Dynamos. In the meantime, Donna has invited her backup singers, Rosie and Tanya.

Colourful, interesting 'musical' film full of Abba and well known actors. I had to see as I never have and before I see the sequel in the next week or so. I've never seen the stage production but enjoyed the movie.
Worth a watch 8/10

The Equalizer (2014)

The original. I've never seen but thought to before I see #2 soon.

I always enjoy Denzel Washington movies and this no exception. Short story is a good guy takes on the bad guys. Read the plot here on the Wiki.

8/10

10 shots to climb over a chain link fence

Denzel is too old for this shit

I finally got around to watching The Death of Stalin this weekend.
It was fantastic, albeit even darker than I expected. I found it hard to laugh at, as while a lot of the scenarios were patently absurd, I could also see that they were probably quite true to the actual events.

An outstanding cast too. I couldn't fault a single performance.

The Equalizer 2 (2018)

Just got back from the cinema and yes, more of the same as I expected and enjoyed so if you liked the first, go see it.

Just returned from a 4pm session of that Living Universe movie. I'm not sure if any of you will ever get the chance to see because it is an Australian production but you may get a clone if you're lucky. Science documentary basically about the human quest to find ex-solar planets.

I really enjoyed

Too early for a Wiki so I'll let you Google as you please.

Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)

I always enjoy the MI movies and this was no exception. Action start to finish as you'd expect and I found it most entertaining.
Go see it.
8/10

Bagdad Cafe .

I saw this one ages ago and lately I happened to stumble over it on late night local TV.
It's one of those german movies from the wider Fassbinder-gang. Kind of artsy but Percy Adlon, the director was more story-oriented than the others around Fassbinder. In the sense of story over presentation.

Marianne Sägebrecht, the main actress, is known in Germany. But not to the point she should deserve to be in my opinion. And in this movie she had the role of her life.
It's a great dramedy, tragic and so funny. Yep, there is german humor in this. Watch it .

I enjoyed the first movie of his. I will have to see this one. I have enjoyed watching most of Denzel Washington’s movies. Good action scenes.

[phantasmagoria]

Blackkklansman is very good.

[surgeon62]

Blackkklansman is very good.

Agree... Although there are some very serious parts, there is way more funny than I was expecting

[phantasmagoria]

I was kind of the opposite... I thought it was going to more of a straight up comedy film but the serious bits really hit hard. They did it brilliantly though, struck exactly the right balance.

I hope lots of people see it.

First Man (2018)

Saw this and yes, not a bad movie at all. Ryan Gosling did a great job playing the part as he did in Blade Runner 2049 (2017). Claire Foy I haven't seen much of but I recognized her from the series The Crown that I have not started as yet.

A really good solid move so if you have the opportunity see it.

From the IMDB...

A look at the life of the astronaut, Neil Armstrong, and the legendary space mission that led him to become the first man to walk on the Moon on July 20, 1969.

Venom

I was actually quite entertained by Tom Hard's approach to this character. While some scenes were over-the-top on the cheesy factor, the movie was more entertaining than the fan-based rotten tomato reviews had provided (33%).

Given my expectations were fairly low, I was surprised at how entertained I was.

Just came back from the theater seeing this movie in Imax.
It's very impressive. The launch of the Gemini 8 mission is so visceral, it really shows the kind of crazy required to let yourself get strapped into a sardines can stuck on top of whats basically a huge bomb.
I thought Claire Foy stole the show. I hadn't seen her before but she was very convincing in this movie.

My work took us to an advance screening of Halloween, it was entertainingly bad.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs on Netflix is fab. Highly recommended.

[raw]

Just saw Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindlewald. Good sequal!

[Ferrao10]

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs on Netflix is fab. Highly recommended.

Seconded. It is really well made yet completely unorthodox.
It's hard to point my finger at what exactly I liked about it.
Probably the fact that it breaks pretty much every proven concept of successful film-making. and stil resonates on the emotional levels it means to trigger.

Really? I had high hopes as I'm a big Coen fan but I thought it was pretty unremarkable.
A bit my own fault, the Coens have a way of telling stories with intricate plotlines that tend to loop around. I expected the same between these six stories.

That said I loved Liam Neeson's and James Franco's performances.

See I hated the one with Liam Neeson, I found it was boring. I really enjoyed the first couple of short stories but that one and the one after were pretty meh, the last one was decent.

Enemy at the Gates.

Just a great movie re WW2, snipers and Stalingrad.

See it
