Goodfellas (1990)

The best mob movie ever made.

Classic/10

"What do you mean, funny?"


The first 10 minutes of The Room.


Errrr.

Meh on Goodfellas. The Sopranos made the film redundant in my opinion - covered all the same ground, only much more effectively.

I saw "The Girl with All the Gifts". After I watched it, I read the reviews and it seems I'm in a minority. I read a lot of really really positive stuff, but for me - after a brilliant set up the film just went downhill and had a really (really!) poor ending. None of it made any sense - as in the film's logic just didn't add up.

It was really disappointing overall. But the performances were all brilliant - I have to say that: everyone smashed it.

Saw Dunkirk at the weekend.

Honestly kinda underwhelmed. It felt like it could've/should've been so much better.

"Am I a clown? Do I amuse you?" Joe Pesci is the only person who could have played that role, hilarious!

"Hi doggy!"
"I did naht hit her, I did naht! Oh hi Mark."

My favourite story about that is how Pesci went on to film the first Home Alone immediately afterwards, and apparently every time his character got hurt and was supposed to grumble incoherently, he'd instead launch into full Tommy DeVito mode and start hurling expletives. Needless to say they had to cut and go again :laugh:

I've no idea if that's genuinely true, but I certainly hope it is!

It certainly sounds like something he would do! :P

Spider-Man: Homecoming
Definitely the best Spider-Man film since Spiderman 2. Tom Holland puts in a great performance and Michael Keaton is superb. Although the film does mess with the MCU timeline a bit, but with some checking, it doesn't do it that much. Not compared to the reaction some people have said anyway

Superman (1978)

I forgot how downright thirsty Lois Lane is in this. She almost asks Superman how big his dick is. :laugh:

Aeon Flux - I don't think this movie is that bad as some people say.  I would have enjoyed it more if I was a fan of the cartoon, but Charlize Theron is good in it.  Has a certain cheese factor as well.

Hacksaw Ridge.

It's a shame Mel Gibson's a bit of a knob, because he's one hell of an actor/director. This was a superb film. Fantastically inspiring true story as well. (For those who don't know, it's about Desmond Doss, a Christian medic who refused to carry a weapon in WWII and ended up saving 75 men's lives during the Battle of Okinawa and receiving the Medal of Honor for his exploits.) If I had any complaint, it's that the otherwise incredibly brutal battle sequences were slightly spoiled by having people somersaulting through the air after an explosion like it was Commando, but it was a minor quibble. This is still the best war film I've seen in a long time (Dunkirk included).

Yeah, I'll second the notion of preferring Hacksaw Ridge to Dunkirk. Both great films though.

Still yet to see Hacksaw Ridge. As for Mel well he certainly has his demons but I'll always have a soft spot for him given my Aussie heritage.

Curious what is your favourite war movie?

Mine is Apocalypse Now. Probably the only war film that isn't really a war film at all in some respects (that's a very long discussion on why I said that too). Really would love to see this film get a 4K remaster of the Redux.
