    FLINT another brilliant Russian movie subtitled English, a Russian special forces, goes to a fallen comrades home town, to give his mother her sons items of sentimental value , only then to be pestered by corrupt police.

    I’m not into war films but thought 1917 was absolutely superb!! Say down with little expectation of enjoyment and loved it

    I hadn't but it sounds like my kind of thing, at least when I'm in the mood for something offbeat. I'll see if I can dig it up <cool>

    That's all good, I love David Lynch and Fear and Loathing is in my top five. It sounds a bit like The Lighthouse which I thoroughly enjoyed, not the plot but the black and white weirdness.

    I might stick it on tonight if I can find it.

    I thought that Dunkirk was a great piece of work, the constant ticking in the film really put you on edge.

    Hacksaw ridge is a good film as well imo.

    Agree about Paddy Considine as well - in 'A room for Romeo Brass'....."tuck into that!" <laugh><laugh><laugh>



    The Shane Meadows stuff is brilliant. As mentioned earlier, Dead Man's Shoes is tremendous.

    Layer Cake is good and I also like RocknRolla (a typical Guy Ritchie interweaving storyline gangsta flick)

    I think the first time I saw it, it was on Channel 4. I think it might be on Netflix too though.

    Me and a mate of mine went thinking it was a horror horror film if you know what I mean. lol. If I had known it was going to be the style it was, I may not have left disappointed.

    Just watched “The siege of Jarotville” about Irish UN forces sent to the Congo to keep the peace. True story, absolutely unbelievable!
