Dream House 3.5/10 - Daniel Craig thing, the idea was good, it had decent actors but it somehow came out spectacularly shit. Just read the Wikipedia page: It was released... to critical and commercial disaster to the point that Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz have disowned it |

Risky Business - 5/10 Never seen this before As there's enough references to it (in other shows etc.) I thought I'd give it a go... not what I was expecting, it was seedier and more artsy than I had in mind. It's alright as a film, it had a warmth to the acting (as odd as that sounds) which you don't get with modern films/TV, it didn't feel like they shot each scene umpteen times and instead they went with what they had.
Anyway seen it now so I'll know WTF people are going on about |

I'm still watching films on my lunch, and having spent about 18 hours on a plane, I've watched a few recently...
Goon: Last Of The Enforcers
I am a massive fan of the first Goon film, so have been looking to watch this since this came out in April in Canada. Finally found a decent version and loved it. Not quite up to the originals standards, it starts off with the protagonist being forced out of the game due to injury. Although not as endearing as the first film (which had more character development), it still has proper belly laugh moments. TJ Miller is irritating (again) 8/10
Colossal
Anne Hathaway goes home after getting dumped and co-incides with a monster in Seoul, which mirrors her actions. I enjoyed the film, but found it hard to keep concentration... Worth a watch, but don't buy the DVD / BluRay etc. 7/10
Zootropolis
An underrated gem of a film. Very funny and well written. 7.5 / 10
The Cabin In The Woods
Very funny, self knowing horror film, with a great script, great story, decent actors and a brilliant end. Highly recommended 8/10
Avatar
This is now the third time I have tried to watch this. I've got an hour and a half in, and just.... don't care. The CGI isn't immersive (or impressive - it reminds me a bit of "Reboot"). Bad guy is Typical Bad Guy, Ripley looking old af yo, and yeah, I couldn't finish it. 5/10
The Belko Experiment
Watched this again (saw it at the cinema) and it is still a very good example of a horror comedy. Tightly written, well filmed and with a very dark humour, I would recommend this all day long 8.5/10
Guardians Of The Galaxy vol 2
Again, watched on the plane because it was there and again, another film that is good, but doesn't surpass the original for me. If it was a standalone, it'd be 8.5/10, but as a sequel it's maybe an 8/10. Having said that, Michael Rooker is brilliant. I'm Mary Poppins, y'all.
Moana
Another one that I think was a little bit underrated. The story is better than the usual disney fare, The rock is very funny and self depricating, some good songs in there (including one by the Flight Of The Concorde dude). 8/10
Sausage Party
Started watching this some time ago and fell asleep. Started it again, and enjoyed it but it fell short of my expectations. The trailer was the funniest parts of it. Great idea, but I don't think it was strong enough to support a feature film run time. Strange orgy scene as well. 6/10 ____________________ thx1138 wrote: Well if you had a car, I'd bet it would smell like urine had had drunken sex with vomit and made a poo baby.

Detroit 3/10 - thought I'd give this a try as film critics have been getting wet over it. I was expecting another film to prop up the current dindu nuffin narrative... and it duly delivered.
I get it's based on true events, but if you're going to go in with a broad subject matter, then choose to focus on one event, and not even tell that story properly you've created a poor piece of cinema... or maybe propaganda
Read this review: https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2017/08/the-disappointments-of-detroit/535899/ and save yourself 2+ hours of your life. |

The Angels' Share 6/10 - Scottish thing by Ken Loach that could really have done subtitles (at least they knew this with NEDS). I think they covered every Scottish sterotype in this, still there was enough humour to get me through the film, and the story although completely fantastical was a welcome break from the usual way these types of films go.
Also there's a brief appearance from Podrick and James McAvoy's hot sister |

Killing Hasselhoff - 4.5/10
It was quite alright, had its funny moments and surprising selection of actors and comedians. Ken Jeong is betting with his mates on what celebrity is going to die next. Then, he's misses a payment to a loanshark, tl; dr Ken Jeong is going to try to kill the Hoff to win his bet. The film could have been better if Jim Jefferies got more space.
The Hitman's Bodyguard - 6/10
Great cast, well executed, yet somehow generic and boring. Ryan Reynolds was alright, he always is, but Samuel L. Jackson seemed like he didn't want to be there. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ
