A Quiet Place - 4/10
Ranked #3 in the list of top rated horror movies on Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/top/bestofrt/top_100_horror_movies/ (Number 1 in the list is not even remotely deserving of its position either).
An utterly terrible, painfully unrealistic film. It's set in a world where killer creatures bound in and devour you any time you make too much noise. Much of the film is done via sign language, but that's where the realism stops.
Interesting premise, executed terribly. The points where you want to say out loud, "It would never happen like that in real life!" are far too many. And yes I know it's a horror film with killer monsters so you're supposed to suspend disbelief, but it's the human aspects that are hardest to get on board with. They just get so much stuff wrong, it make it impossible to connect with the characters.
Terrible, terrible film. |

Me, the mrs and the lad all went to an IT double bill last night at the local cinema.
IT: chapter one
I've never seen the original, but this was a well written, well acted film with a few jumpscares thrown in. Good cast, with Goonies / Stand By Me vibes all over the shop. I like the Pennywise dude, creepy without being too much. 7.5/10
IT: chapter two
The gang are all grown up and have to return to Derry. Finishing the story with a surprisingly stellar cast (James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain, Bill Hader) and alternating between modern day and 1989, it works well, however it did get a bit convoluted and confusing. Still worth a watch 7/10
We got to the cinema for 7pm for this (started at 7.30), and left at 1. Home and in bed for 2, and up for work at 6. Rather tired today.... ____________________ 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.

STUBER 9/10
Stu is an Uber driver, hence Stuber, he picks up angry cop Dave Bautista and he and Stu go on a Police mission across town. I've made that sound shit but it's actually funny.
Stu is the brown cab driver from Deadpool, also stars that guy out of the Raid and Raid 2, Mile 22. Looks like a chinky but isn't, Kung Fu expert.
Good film, very funny. Trailer:-

Terminator - Dark fate. 8/10
Some people age well, Arnie does not. Neither does Linda Hamilton. The premise, The Legion (new Skynet) send back a Rev 9 Terminator to kill some Mexican woman who in the future is the leader of the resistance that topples The Legion. The resistance send back an Augmented woman (think a female version of Adam Jensen). She's a bit unstable, not sure if it's because simply put she's a woman or the augmentations make her a bit testy.
Pre Arnie showing his aging mug it's a bit boring, the 2nd half when he shows up it's a lot better. He's now called Carl and sells drapes for a living and has a van with 'Carls drapes - we won't leave you hanging'. No one laughed at that in the cinema, no one. Aimed at out friends across the pond no doubt.
I won't spoil it for you, go and watch it, it's better than 4 and 5 in the series. I'd put them: 2, 1, 6, 3, 5, 4. |
