What film did you watch last night?

[NorthernDave]

Jumanji - Welcome to the jungle.
Quite well handled, and even survives a couple of willy gags.
5/10

We also watched that at the weekend. It's not great, but it's not terrible either.
Glad I didn't splash the cash on a trip to the multiplex to see it, but I'd agree 5/10 is a fair rating.

By chance I caught most of The Cruel Sea at lunchtime today. Still a classic, 9/10

I agree very much with The Cruel Sea. I only noticed it when it was nearly finished.
I've got it in a DVD box set, which will probably tempt me towards watching Ice Cold in Alex again.

The Commander

Lewis Collins and Lee Van Cleef in a mercenary tale, I can't tell you what happened as the plot was wafer thin, think of a very downmarket version of Rambo II and you're on the right lines.

Plenty of guns, explosions, hammy acting, and hilarious dialogue.

It can have 4/10 for being so bad that it was almost good.

Shameless showing off my granddaughter but we were watching Shrek. A film she's become obsessed with, this is her 4th viewing, my 2nd . My wife took the photo as Imogen watched entranced...

I'm sure we'll end up watching it again

Bushwick.

After finding out that this was the third in a series by the same director, apparently he's a bit of a cult, and the first one being Codename Wildgeese, I just had to seek out the second one.

Kommando Leopard.

Lewis Collins is a mercenary trying to overthrow a South American dictator, cue explosions that send baddies somersaulting through the air, guns that never need reloading, Klaus Kinski as a baddie who obviously gets his just desserts, and an absolute cheesefest of an ending.

Another 4/10, so bad that it's good.

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

Braven.
Just plain silly 0.3256/10.

 

[Drago]

Tremors.

The classic tongue in cheek comedy horror. Still watchable after all these years.

8/10.

This sounds like a trilogy i need to see.
Plus rewatch Who Dares Wins, obviously.

Legion.
Got as far as a granny effing and blinding, biting someone's neck then leaping up and scurrying across the ceiling.
Gave up and switched it off.

They pop up every now and then on Movies for Men if you've got access to that channel?

Sorry, got confused with another Kelly... Weird Science lol Was expecting 10/10

 

[swee'pea99]

Fever Pitch. The later American one. Enjoyed it, but not much to say really. An amiable enough way to pass a couple of hours.

 

[AndyRM]

For anyone interested, there are two films with Kelly Brooke worth watching: Piranha 3D and Taking Stock.
