Got dragged to wicked 2 last night when wicked 1 was already pretty ****.

Biggest waste of my time for 2 and a half hours.

Storyline is an absolute mess and the adaptation of what characters come about is ridiculous
Characters doing dumb things non stop, literally worse than a horror film where the mates go off on their own into the woods
Ariana Grande is pretty ****ing annoying, no idea what shes done to her face but she looks weird to me so having to see her on screen for most of it made it even worse.

My first 1/10


Films on the plane back:

Tron Legacy - I thought i would like this, maybe i was tired but i couldn't really get into it and i found it hard to watch. Managed it though rewinding back a few times and dozing off. 5/10

Deep Cover - Typical comedy film involving nerds going undercover. I really like the trio on set who fit their roles perfectly. Never thought i'd see a performance like that from orlando bloom. Had a blast watching it. 8/10

The Amateur - I wanted to like this more but i didn't really like how it developed. I think i like coherent actions unless i go into a film knowing it will be silly like an MI or Bond film which i don't think they wanted this to be. 5.5/10
 
The Brutalist 7.2/10 massively overhyped Oscar nod. Broady is nothing special in it and certainly shouldn't be winning awards. Guy Pearce hams it up and is very good but still it's just not worth the hype at all.

Agree with you on Deep Cover - not seen the others ...

The running man

Very good adaptation of the source material. A lot better than the Arnie version.

7/10

Nuremberg

Excellent film.

Crowe's best performance for a long long time. Malek is also very good.

8/10
 
Bless this house

Found this oldie but goodie on ITVX and sat and watched the first 3 episodes.

Sid James was great.

Malice 8.- 6 parter.
Jack Whitehall playing a serious role, did it pretty well.
 
Watched 2050 because i only have prime and netflix at the moment. I think i like the premise but it being the budget film and the awful acting i think i can only give it a 5/10
