Started watching a film on Polish TV. The Foreigner
Thought, hang on, this is OK so found it on my preferred Movie provider in English.
Watched it. It was actually VERY good
In fact it was very good and VERY surprising.
Starred Pierce Brosnan playing a cross between Gerry Adams & Martin McGuiness and? Jackie Chan.
Who acts.
I mean he actually acts. No funny shit, He does acting.
He plays Quan who we never work out but he was a Chinese Special Ops working for the US in Vietnam & his wife was killed by Pirates and he is now living in a Chinese Takeaway with his Daughter who gets blown up by an âIRA Bombâ
It was entertaining, and a 7 on IMBD.
Worth finding
Thanks to my provider, came across two films 25 years apart. The original much loved in Murica, but more of a meh to us. The sequel maybe we understand that world slightly more than way back then.
Space Jam & Space Jam: A new legacy.
Neither movie is anything more than popcorn. They both star non acting actors - Michael Jordan & Le Bron James, and of course the Loony Tunes gang.
Verdict. Tosh piffle nonsense.
But after a couple of wines shared tonight & some Ales & Vodkas yesterday, bloody loved them.
The latest had one spray drink A-List visual gag, and much to the visuals of the crowd of WB Serververse spectators.
Utter nonsense from Bill Murray in the 1st film to Wily Coyote in the 2nd.
A film that did nothing to expand the value of the cinematic form, but did entertain a great proportion of Netflix subscribers at the start of Lockdown.
If youâve not seen Extraction, this contains a major spoiler.
If you did watch it, the reaction is
There are many days when the aches and pains of getting old are a b1tch.
Then you watch a movie (again) on Netflix and remember you were old & lucky enough to see Queen in concertâŚ
Godaam it.
Bawling my eyes out AGAIN to Bohemian Rhapsody
Ffs
My Birthday present next week is a trip to the Cinema to watch Bond (Enlish with subtites) & a Curry.
Just spent 3 nights catching up on the Craig Bond films.
Quantum of Solace was so visually good but ruined by the hour long blowing up of a hotel.
The others were all decent, think Skyfall was the grittiest, Spectre - Blofeld was a bit meh tbh
Ditto. Just not worth it. But Black Widow was up in hours, not Shang-Chi for example
Guess itâs to do with not yet streaming though that never stopped them before loading review copies up
For the sweeping location shots.
Back in the day, the dream of going to those places, then doing itâŚ
And because we all want a Silver DB5 with THAT button for when the other half whines about your drivingâŚ
Late to the party, Iâm sure gamers have issues, but what a fvcking great movie Free Guy is.
I was put off by the whole gamer shit NPC WTF?
All irrelevant itâs just a real daft fun entertaining and educational movie (for someone who thought an Avatar was the Ryder Cup logo or a movie with Blue dudes.
to the visuals of the crowd of WB Serververse spectators.
