Films you've watched recently.

[* ORM *]

Tried to watch Naked (1993 Mike Leigh). Got halfway through and finding it tough going. I’ll stick with it and maybe have the G&Ts flowing for the remainder.

Not to be confused with another film called Naked which is a dire attempt at humour in the mode of Groundhog Day. Avoid at all costs.

David Thewliss is great in it though.

I saw this interesting film this morning.

 

[Its Only A Game]

Watched “The Father” last night. Excellent portrayal by Anthony Hopkins as an elderly dementia sufferer struggling with life while be supported by his daughter (Olivia Colman). Takes a little getting used to until you realise you are seeing everything from the old man’s perspective but a very good watch. Might be a tough watch for someone who has dealt with dementia sufferers though. 5/5

I saw this interesting (but rarely seen) film today.

 

[Jacob Sladder]

This remake is in the pipeline apparently!!

Also watched The Hippopotamus based on a Stephen Fry novel. Wife hated it but when it finished I realised that I'd actually enjoyed it a lot. Roger Allam is excellent value, as always.

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Had 2 recent flights to NY & back, & watched 4 films, which as i don't have Netflix or anything else, was a bonus. My ratings as follows.
1917, enjoyed it but wouldn't watch again.
Bullet train, thoroughly enjoyed it, would happily watch again.
A man called Otto, liked it, might watch again.
Top Gun Maverick. I've never seen the original Top Gun, but thought this was good & would watch again.

I would certainly see 1917 again (as I did when it was on the box recently and thoroughly enjoyed it) .Can't say I've seen or would be interested in) any of the other films you mentionapart from A man called Otto,which I certainly enoyed and would probably see on the box again.

Loved 1917 but yea I agree it’s a one time only film
top Gun Maverick has a lot of callbacks - it’s so much better having seen the original beforehand
