Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?
I watched Chappie last night as it’s currently on Prime Video. It’s nothing to do with dog food, think Short Circuit meets Robocop. The critics mostly panned it but, hey, what do they know. I thought I’d enjoy it as the Director was the same guy who did District 9 (Neill Blomkamp), and I wasn’t disappointed - thought it was excellent.

The Gentlemen. Guy Ritchie as his best!

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - 9/10. Amusing re-telling of the Sharon Tate murder, without her being the focus of the film. Looks and sounds pretty good in 4k, totally Tarantino finish, really enjoyed.

Hotel Artemis (Amazon Prime). 7.5/10. Good, gritty film with a strong cast and a stylish atmosphere. It builds nicely and the 95 minute length is ideal for this type of film, so it doesn't drag or seem strung out. Well worth a watch.
Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?
Finished knives out and I think the direction is great, the performances are wonderful, and the pace is mostly good and the movie is a completely enjoyable, highly recommended.

Finished watching Cobra Kai (brilliant) and currently watching Doom Patrol and The Boys... Both very enjoyable with lots of dark humor.

I watched "Operation Hummingbird". Usually I don't watch such films often, but this one interested me. The trailer is interesting. The film is specific. Those who are not interested in the technical aspects of communication may not understand the meaning of competition in speed.

Jojo rabbit was exceptionally good.

Agreed. Not the kind of thing I normally would have watched, but I gave it a try because of all the positive reviews and wasn’t disappointed.

Really enjoyed Mulan on Disney+. Can't believe my Mrs actually enjoyed any form of a Kung Fu movie. She hates them.

The Old Guard. Pleasently surprised.

i watched it a few days ago. it was ok, you've kinda got to watch it twice, which is a bit silly, it doesn't really work on a single viewing, unless you've got both super good aural processing going on (chris nolan films are known for their intentional mumbliness, the theory being that it forces you to concentrate harder, but it just turns me off really) and pay a lot of attention and also suspend a lot of disbelief, and once you've done all those things, twice, it's a decent, but not amazing movie.
i haven't seen timecop in a while but it's basically a remake.

Sounds similar to Inception and Interstellar in that respect. I do like Nolan's films, one critic described them as ambitious, towering cathedrals of films which I thought was apt. But I agree they need your absolute concentration and usually more than one viewing.
