Is the world forgiving films for being shite now just because they're in keeping with the most recent liberal cause-celebre?
Not in my house.

Open House.

I watched Ready Player One at the weekend and was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

Good show. I watched Full Metal Jacket 2 weeks ago, hadn't watched it in years. Still a bloody great movie.

Sequel poor enough, dodgy plot. 6/10. Not a patch on original

Really? I thought it was average. I thought the director strangely put Blunt at the centre of the film but then made her character largely weak. The performances were good but it didn't leave a lasting impression on me, at least not a positive one.

Wind River.  Watched it again last night.  Great show

Same here. Very forgettable film.

The first Sicario movie was very good and I'll watch the second one even though it has universally had less glowing reviews than the first one.
