Quality thread @John Wick

Talking about war films, I thought Hacksaw Ridge was excellent.

Some other top films for me are the well known ones like:

Goodfellas
The Green Mile
Aliens
Fight Club
This is England

An older classic: Midnight Express

I saw ‘Manchester by the sea’ recently and it was very good, with Casey Affleck and Michelle Williams. Pretty slow though so you’ve got to not mind that type of film.

Edit: I’ll add American History X

Cheers mate. After seeing your film list, we would get along.
 
That looks like a right pile of ****e, the first one was crap and yet they make a new one every year.
Agreed. Watched the 1st one and 2 hours later I was waiting for a plot to develop. Quite how they have stretched it out to 4 films is beyond me - how much of a story does a mumbling, greasy haired assassin have to tell?

This is a class film, don't want to give much away because the less you know the better but it's a thriller that keeps you gripped from start to finish and it's way more ambitious than the trailer suggests. Really interesting film and well executed in terms of doing something original and pulling it off.

is there much of it going on
 
Just watched a film last night on Roku which should go down as the most cheesiest film ever. If there are actors claiming they are out of work they must be seriously bad if the actors in Castle Rock get a job<laugh>
 
The Gray Man. Well worth a watch.

John Wick meets Jason Bourne. Very slick.

Funny seeing Captain America being an absolute cheb. Very funny.

I enjoyed it and would recommend if you like a lot of action.

The Irishman is also a great watch with lots of big names, downside it's a long film over 3 hours but a good watch if you have time

I love the Irishman. 4 hours long but apparently there's ideal stopping minutes online if you wanted to watch it a parts.

@The Norton Cat finally got around to watching The Guard the other night. Absolutely class mate, I had a few laughs watching it. I still haven't rewarched In Bruge so I might change mind, but as it stands I reckon the guard is better!
