I watched it one night during the week and didn't think it was that bad, or that good.  Could have done a lot more with it.

It was ok not terrible but wouldnt watch it again sort of thing

I thought it was very good.
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

Any views on passengers ?  Is it worth a watch ? Hasn't gone down well with critics.

Some of ye could have answered and saved me the last two hours

Had it down for this weekend, is it to be avoided then?

Visually it's good but the plot lacks thrills/ suspense. I seen somewhere it's was described as titanic in space .. which for me sums it up.
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

I haven't seen T2 but any review I've read or heard has clearly said it relies heavily on the first so you would need to see it before taking on the second.

Either way you should have watched the original Trainspotting by this stage!! It's superb!!

I'd expect so, to get the full value of T2! The main characters are in both.

Watched Captain Philips. Good movie with a couple excellent performances. Also watched Green Room which is a violent thriller. However it is excellent.

I was puzzled by how easy it was for the pirates to initially board the vessel.

One of the hoses broke.

ONeill

Watched Arrival twice. It's a mind-bender. Once you get your head around non-linear time then you have to consider the decision she made at the end. Plenty of cringey flaws but I liked it a quare bit.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Canalman

Seen T2 at the weekend. Ok as a film in itself, much better because it is  an add on to the original if that makes sense. Glad I went to see it .

It's been my favorite so far regarding award season films, thought Denzil was outstanding in it .. still predicting oscar win for it, thou it has not won any of the other awards yet (globes/bafta etc$
