Mutiny on the Bounty (1962)

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Against my better judgement me and the wife watched A haunting in Venice.

One word… Appalling

Can’t even give it 1/10

Big fat zero

Kenneth Brannagh must be ashamed of that.

Avoid

Thank you, with that rating I will be giving that a swerve if Mrs MG ever suggests watching it.

I watched Death on the Nile and that was bad enough, surprised they made another one.

This one is even worse!

Watched Sly on Netflix

Really enjoyed this, Stallone is a very interesting bloke, terrible childhood due to a very violent father. Amazing career considering where he started.

8/10 score

I thought it was pretty good.

I thought it was pretty good.

You are Kenneth Branagh and I claim my £5 !

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

Watched a couple of older films for the first time over the weekend:

'Harold and Maude' - 0/10 - just awful. A Jewish attack on Gentile America masquerading as a black comedy. Avoid.

'This Beautiful Fantastic' - 9/10 - heavenly. A delightful and uplifting masterpiece.

Not quite but I still thought it was quite a decent film:FWIW,my wife nearly came with me to see it ! She's quite a big KB fan but saw the trailer the week before and was put off by some elements in it (she's quite easily frightened)

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

This one is even worse!

It's a no from me then! Thanks!

 

[BALDY]

Ms B and I loved Ken in "Venice"---I await another one.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Finally caught up with Martin Scorsee's Killers of the Flower Moon earlier.Found it long and slow but well worth watching.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Saw Isabel Coixet's Un Amour (Love) earllier .Well worth looking out for when it gets a UK release ,presumably next year.A strange sexy film from probably Cataluna's best female director.

 

[BALDY]

Ms Baldy and I went out and saw "Anatomy Of A Fall"----She enjoyed it----For me it was simply a snoozefest.

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

Rewatched 'Er Ist Wieder Da' (Look Who's Back) - enjoyed it even more than the first time I watched it, and probably for all the wrong reasons. The callback to Downfall is genius.

 

[* ORM *]

The Great Escaper. Not a bad way for Michael Caine to finish his career. Was it fantastic? No. Was it watchable? Most definitely. Not once did I sit there thinking get on with it, this is boring.

 

[RHB]

Re-watched 'The Family' (2013), last night on Netflix. The Manzoni family, a notorious mafia clan, is relocated to Normandy, France under the Witness Protection Program, where fitting in soon becomes challenging, as their old habits die hard.

Starring Robert de Nero and Tommy Lee Jones it couldn't go wrong. Very funny film.

 

[duncan bulgaria]

Watched ' The Convenant ' on Amazon this week , not a usual Guy Ritchie kind of movie but i really enjoyed it, had some very tense moments in the film and left you totally unsure of how it was going to end

one of the best War movies ive seen in some time

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Black and Gold.
On Netflix, a German film with subtitles, set around the last days of WW2 and a SS unit intent on looting, with a lone deserter standing in their way.
Very much in a spaghetti western style.
I enjoyed most of it, 8/10

 

[Swiss Tony]

The whackiest ship in the Army, easy film to watch but then I do love Jack Lemmon, most enjoyable.
