Strictly Movies

I watched In the Tall Grass last week.
I really like the premise and did enjoy it but I thought towards the end it got a bit convoluted.

I’m really looking forward to The Irishman being released. It looks so good...

I like Robert Deniro so will definitely watch it

I have been watching a few good movies on Netflix lately

Fracture
In the shadow of the moon
In the tall grass

Do you mean Fractured 2019? I just saw it and will see the others this weekend.

Watched "The Dead Don't Die" the other night. All I can say is....what was I thinking? I have seen Adam Driver in quite a few films, and like him a lot, and I also thought Bill Murray, Danny Glover, Tilda Swinton, Steve Buscemi et al were very good, so the problem wasn't the actors.

It was just a very strange, disjointed script with 'in-jokes' that - mostly - were not very funny at all. Also it borrowed outrageously from other movies/TV series, so there wasn't much originality either.

And the worst crime of all? It wasn't even scary!

"In the Shadow of the Moon" and "In The Tall Grass" are on my To Watch list. Just have to finish The Night Manager first.

Fractured...

From a very quick read, the plot for Fractured sounds very similar to that of Breakdown, a 90's movie starring Kurt Russell - minus the child though.

I was a bit dissapointed about Fractured. I watched a very good movie a week ago : Yesterday. I also liked : El Camino , a breaking bad movie.
My favourite movie this year : BRIGHTBURN 2019.

Yes sorry it is called Fractured

Oh yeah how could I forget El Camino?!

I loved it

I found it very interesting especially after watching a horrid movie before that called A.M.I lol

I just looked up Brightburn will have to add to my list.

I am not sure if I've seen Breakdown before so don't know I do like suspense thrillers though.

In the shadow of the moon was fun but some things in the story didn't make much sense.
I will see tall grass tonight and also Fracture 2007 with Anthony Hopkins, and Ryan Gosling looks interesting

Well, Joker turned out to be thoroughly great.

A rare feat in Hollywood of well-shot, well-acted, not-too-preachy and no snappy 1-liners every two minutes

Joaquin Phoenix kills it and gives a complete masterclass. He will get an Oscar for this, if not, I'll storm the ceremony

Breakdown is brilliant

I am so looking forward to watch that movie, I am glad you say it was good

It's more a well-crafted portrayal of mental illness than any superhero capers. The Joker is almost secondary to the overall arc!

It's truly stupendous, even if just for the main performance

Did you watch it at the cinema? I think its out here in the cinema now

Yes, just caught it yesterday. Lucky I checked too, because I was under the assumption of blockbusters hanging around for a couple of months.

But no, they tend to pull films about 3 weeks in so we were lucky. Not sure if it's a cinema-ey film but the way the score heightens the atmosphere it's definitely worth catching there.

And even the local feral chavs kept quiet throughout the film, which tells you everything

Batman.

Robert Pattinson.

2021.

I'll leave that here for people to gouge their eyes out over

He is too pretty to be batman but will see

But actually, reading about his other movie just released, 'The Lighthouse', that looks interesting for sure. It's supposed to be very good, as is his turn in it, so he may well be a credible actor after all!

Just came out in the States so won't be here 'til January

Exactly, after all there was Clooney...

Oops.

Funny you mentioned Lighthouse as I was just watching the trailer before, it sure looks dark which I really love.
Not too pretty in that one is he lol

Oops.

Clooney was more mature though I think

 

[pinnit2014]

Maybe they'll do what they did in the Gotham finale and not really show him.

That could work
