What film did you watch last night?

The Magnificent Seven (2016 film)
Generally I don't like re-makes/re-boots as there are so many good books why not try something new and interesting. There are exceptions eg Dune where the story is so complex that it allows for many very different interpretations and focus on different aspects so different films are totally different films.

But the 2016 Magnificent Seven is pretty much identical story just modern production. Lot of well known actors.

I had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. I won't be re-watching, won't be recommending it to others but OK for an evening when you've got to the end of a book and not ready to start next.

I watched this the other night. We had watched a For a few dollars more and it was the next film on Amazon and free. I thought it was ok as well.

Good fillum. Great plot, quite sad when it all unravels.
