Has anyone watched that new film about the Kray twins?

Tom Hardy played a blinder I thought. Actually really enjoyed it.

Watched it. Loved Hardy as Reggie but as Ronnie he was a bit of a caricature. Think that was the directing more than the acting though. Great film if a little confusing at times. I didn't know whether I was supposed to be laughing or crying at times.

Waiting and hoping that they make a film about London at that time which shows the Krays as a pair of clowns, which by all accounts they were. They didn't rule London in terms of crime in the slightest. They were a pair of bullies who liked the limelight. The south London lot would make for a a far more interesting perspective.
 
Ive still only watched the first three series of game of thrones.

I will watch the rest one day. Great viewing.

Have a look at the Tibb's family history who were long time East London hard family. They were to hard what the Kray's were to vicious.
 
Just watched a film called 42.

An american baseball movie. I hate baseball. But it was the true story about some bloke called jackie robinson.

The first black player to make it into major league and all the **** he went through in a segragated america.

No blacks this. No blacks that.

Went on to be one of the all time legends.

Well worth the watch.

Moneyball is worth a watch if you haven't seen it. I'm the same. No interest in baseball.
 
'Life of Brian'
'The constant Gardner' serious but I thought brilliant
Haven't seen 'the Martian' yet but the book was long winded
I recently watched series 1 & 2 of 'Black sails' which I thought was excellent
 
Ray Liotta? From Goodfellas?

Lolita is the book/film about the bloke who falls in love and has a relationship with a little girl.

Nah the first one...i really should have looked the spelling up first.

Played some good parts.
