A few Foreign Movies- that I rate very high and maybe not that well known:


Capernaum (Lebanon movie shot like a doc - crazy realistic)
A Separation (Iranian drama/ mystery)
The Hunt (Danish - Drama)
The White Ribbon (German -about the roots of Nazism)
Honeyland (North Macedonian - documentary)
Mirage (Spanish - Mystery/ Fantasy)
A Moment to Remember (Korean - Drama/ Romance -WARNING it will make you cry)
Peppermint Candy (Korean - Drama / dark -probably need to understand a bit about Korean history to fully enjoy)
Wild Tales (Argentinian - Black comedy - six short stories)
Incendies (Lebanon- Drama/Mystery)
Bleak Night (Korean - Drama)
The Invisible Guest (Spanish - Drama/Mystery)
Victoria (German - Drama/crime)
Lilya 4-Ever (Russian - Drama/crime)
Lion (Indian- Biography/drama)
Revanche  (Russian - Drama/crime)
Last Train Home (Chinese - Documentary - this film will remind you of how good you have it)

Elvis was good. Have always been a big Elvis fan, bit so/so on Baz Lurhmann but he'd so much material to work with it would have been harder to mess up. Tom Hanks didnt do it for me as Col Parker, bit too Wicked witch of the West for me.

J70

Enjoyed Air.

Pretty typical of that type of film, but the good cast and pacing made it better than most of what you get these days.

Guardians 3 was fun. Took the lad and some of his mates to see it.

Skeletor

Stay clear of The Pope's Exorcist. The acting is mediocre at best and the film isn't even scary.

Milltown Row2

Stay clear of the worst ever (and there's been a few) 'Irish' film, Dead Shot, how it was ever allowed to be completed is beyond me and what Mark Strong was thinking when asked to do it I don't know. Woeful
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

I thought it was better than that. 7.5 for me - enjoyed all the nods to the originals.

Gonna go to this by myself as my partner doesn't want to go.

As a wain, I thought going to the cinema by yourself was for losers, but as a grown-up, I relaise it shows you how strong you are.

My Mrs takes it as a personal insult if I want to go watch a movie by myself, I've no idea why. She'll come along and watch something she's zero interest in.

Definitely an improvement on the last one, albeit that wouldn't have been difficult.
I thought it was fair enough, did enjoy the nods to the originals few nice touches there and was easy watched.

Difficult to follow up on the originals as they were genuine classics.
