How true is this? I realise there is a bit of Hollywood involved, but how much?

If there is even 25% of the truth involved, then the way these men were treated is beyond shameful.

Enjoyed the remake of the Maginificent 7. Clearly it's got some 2016 action scenes and shenanigans but enjoyable never the less. 7/10

It's a pretty accurate account of what happened, Muppet.

It's very sad to think these men didn't get honored until 2005, but unfortunately pat quinnliam died in 1997 ..

If it wasn't for this film I'd  never have known this story , seems to be divided opinion on o brien , his family are very cross at how he was depicted.. but the men who were part of company a have praised the film

Suicide Squad- Dung.  3/10, all 3 marks awarded for Margot Robbie

Don't Breathe - Went on a bit too long but still decent suspense thriller 6/10

Dirty Grandpa - First half an hour was very funny I thought, then tailed off a bit.  6/10

13 Hours -  Really enjoyed it, serious action and suspense.  8/10

The Infiltrator is very good. New Star Trek movie middling enough.

Watched Ghostbusters and Midnight Special at the weekend. Ghostbusters was slightly better than I thought it would be - 7/10 and Midnight Special was a decent watch too although was slightly ruined by my son asking questions every 5 minutes - 8/10.

It's a vanilla historical account of that battle, no need to even hint at a watering down in order that it be more accurate.

Watched Mud before so watched Shotgun Stories last night which was also brilliant, so going to try and get through all the Jeff Nichols films so going for Take Shelter and Midnight Special next.

Watched the girl on the train the other night... worth a watch but nothing overly special. Not the most gripping thriller but still good

I thought it was f**king terrible. Book is meant to be a decent page turner but I was flat out bored with the movie.

Seen the 'accountant ' and have to say it was well worth the entry fee, good plot and a few turns, very enjoyable 8/10
