What film did you watch last night?

[Tenacious Sloth]

Mary Poppins.
Julie Andrews in her prime. Phworrr!

Also, Dick Van Dyke’s cockney accent for comedy value.

7/10

Johnny English

Greatest Showman.
Different to what I expected, but quite good. Several songs that I've heard on the wireless that I didn't realise were from the film.

The Equalizer, i watched it again,after much persuasion.
very good as it happens, but the first 20 mins is great for dozing off

It's a slow starter but a satisfying watch, number 2 is good as well if you get chance to watch it.

Been watching a few Clint Eastwood films recently.

Pale Rider
Hang 'em High
The Outlaw Josey Wales
High Plains Drifter
Unforgiven

All very good films and he's just so cool without even trying!.

Watership down...gave up after 10 mins , just no good

It took me a while to get into it and whilst mostly enjoyable, i'd have preferred lesser known voice over artists than the very familiar voices used. I'd have also preferred the 'crash bang wallop' score to have used themes from Bright Eyes... plus the ending was a bit 'meh' ...and that song over the closing titles was dreadful. The 1978 version is better, but that's not to say this should be dismissed... it's a cracking story.

None. My S.i.L. is staying with us for Christmas and she loves watching bloody cartoons, which I hate, so find other things to do.

Having said that, I have recorded Watership Down which I will catch up with in the New Year. The original was a great favourite of the kids and I must have sat through it a dozen times.

Last night we watched ' 3 Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri'.

A very good film. I particularly liked that it didn't have the usual American happy ending, a better reflection of real life.

Today whilst out walking my daughter and I were talking about what happened after the film ended.

Careful not to put a spoiler there!

Alex Ryder stormbreaker . No too bad

 

[NorthernDave]

Raiders of the Lost Ark - the original and some might say best of the Indiana Jones films.

Carry On Cruising - not the strongest of the Carry On films, but infinitely better than the sorry mess that is Carry On Follow That Camel which was on earlier.

I'd like to read his memoirs... just to see where all the full stops are.

Bumblebee.

Far better than I expected. Although I don't recommend the movie, at least it wasn't a waste of time like I anticipated and turned out to be rather alright .
