Jeepers Creepers

Quote from: Jell 0 Biafra on January 20, 2024, 04:55:34 AMSaltburn.  Beautifully shot, very well acted. Plot a bit shit though. Just about watchable. 4/10

Agree.

Wait until you watch Poor Things. It's completely batshit from start to finish. Weird and disgusting and funny well acted and completely bananas.

I still haven't decided if it's good or bad yet but I'm leaning towards good. I laughed more in shock than humour.

It's worth a look but not for the faint of heart plenty of gore and riding and nudity!

I'm interested to hear anyone else's take on it.

Emma Stone is a shoo in for the Oscar after it.

I'm in!

A good few mickeys on show as well!!

Unwatchable dung.

Speaking of which and one for the death notice thread, Jesse Jane and her boyfriend found dead after an apparent overdose of drugs at their home.

The Holdovers really is a decent show. I had no expectations when I went to see this as I literally didn't know what it was about.  At times it is serious and at times it was laugh out loud funny. Paul Giamatti is excellent.  His character would remind you of his "Chuck" from Billions in some ways, but funnier.

Really enjoyed it. Feel good show. You can understand why it got a few Oscar nominations. One of my favourite films of last couple of years
quit your jibba jabba fool!!

Malcolm X, 3hr 30mins, watching it in stages, I'll finish now cus I've started but what a ball of shite.

Malcolm X is a terrific movie.

Thoroughly enjoyed American Fiction. Jeffrey Wright is outstanding in it.

Looking forward, albeit quite uncomfortably from everything I've read and heard, to The Zone of Interest.

It's a long time since I last watched that but it's a hell of a movie. I can't believe it is 25+ years old. Crazy.
