Bird Box on Netflix is a good show. Not quite a horror, as I was expecting but definitely a good concept.
Daft enough. Particularly how there wasn't a mention as to how everyone survived the 5 years between outbreak and the river journey!

Yes daft is the best word for it and too similar to The Happening (2008). For me, the malevolent presence / illness / psychosis wasn't explained anywhere near enough.

It wasn't about that though . . . I quite enjoyed it I know it wasn't too deep really and was just a whole lot of suspense without any real reasoning but it was entertaining enough and not the worst way to pass an evening. It'll hardly be getting any Oscars I wouldn't think.
Just watched it after all the hype. Enjoyed it well enough without being one to stick in the memory. Very like the happening alright. Don't know why but I found both fairly uncomfortable viewing at times. Just can't put my finger on why.

I think when you have kids, you can never watch a movie (with kids under threat) the same again. It's hard to be passive and not emotionally involved! This film heightened that vulnerability!

Watched Bohemian Rhapsody tonight and really enjoyed. Probably shouldn't have been anywhere near the Oscars but it made me watch some YouTube videos of Freddie. The GOAT.

It's been a week since I've seen Trainspotting 2 and I'm still chuckling at  the 1690 scene in the pub - "No More Catholics" chorus.
Obviously punters don't select their own pin numbers, but if they could...

Sorry, I forgot there are people here from Tyrone and things need to be clarified, spelled out in capitals at a very slow speed.

A wee lesson here for us alll......sometimes it's better just to shut the f**k up.

Free Solo.

It win best documentary film at this year's Oscars.

Even if you don't find rock climbing particularly interesting.

My knuckles were white watching it, even though I knew Honnold successfully completed the climb.

On a similar El Capitan note (albeit this time with ropes to arrest any falls!), The Dawn Wall is a great watch for the unbelievable dedication of Tommy Caldwell (spent almost a decade working out the route) and the perseverance of his partner to finally complete it with him.

Just back from watching it in the cinema. Absolutely class. The scale of that wall is unbelievable when it pans out near the end. A lot of it was very funny too.
