Has anyone seen In the Heart of the Sea?  Was going to give it a whirl

I haven't but I follow a few movie critics who said to avoid it. It was supposed to be released in (I think) March 2015 but was put back because they weren't happy with the finished cut. They gave it very poor reviews.

Anyone seen Spotlight yet? Was it released in the US in 2015?

Haven't seen it yet but looking forward to watching it. Not a lot of talk about it on this side of the pond. Wonder how it will be received in Italy.

I watched it on Screener just before Christmas. It's alright I would give it a 6/10. Quite boring to be fair there isn't a whole lot going on apart from the fact the Church are as corrupt as a Tyrone GAA dressing room!!

Finally watched Sicario last night. Cracking, incredibly suspenseful film.

A damming indictment of the Catholic Church. Have seen varying reviews with some saying it is great and others saying it is very heavy on the procedure of investigative journalism without much really happening.

Saw Spotlight at the weekend - it is primarily focused on the investigation but I thoroughly enjoyed it. 7.5/8 out of 10 for me.

Saw spotlight a couple of weeks ago, thought it was really well filmed and done 8.5/10 for me, thought Ruffalo was superb although the whole cast were great.

Agreed - Ruffalo was excellent!

Trollhunters on tonight on Film 4 (I think).

Well worth a watch. Norwegian film with subtitles. Plot is daft but film v good imo anyway.

The only copy out other than anything that was recorded in the cinema is a 480p screener. There's no HD option out there yet. Best option is to go to cinema, it really deserves it.

Might be able to get to see it this week - last time I went to Cinema I chose Creed over Revenant! Couldn't turn Stallone down
