As always, his directorial approach is enjoyable while the movie is overall average. David Beckham has a cameo appearance which I didn’t know about beforehand.
Wonder Woman - not bad but the 8.0 imdb rating seems a bit high. Gal Gadot is a beautiful woman but not the most convincing actress, it’s good she doesn’t have to talk too much.
Miss Sloane - starring Jessika Chastain as a DC lobbyist, it’s a political drama so if you are into the genre, you won’t be disappointed. And Chastain is a bliss to the eye, absolutely fantastic actress.
The story of the somewhat botched but ultimately successful Operation Anthropoid in which a few Czech parachutists trained in London under the Czech government-in-exile attempt to assassinate of one of the Nazi’s highest ranked men within the SS, Reinhard Heydrich, whose terrible reign in charge of occupied Czechoslovakia earned him the nickname ‘The Butcher of Prague’.
Really quite enjoyed this but unfortunately the language is English with some dodgy accents.
Another one coming out this year on the same story, seems a bit pointless and by the looks of the trailer, quite poor.
Spider-Man 2 is a good film and one of my favourites superhero films but it isn’t eithen close to being the greatest superhero film their are far better films in that genre that have aged better and stood the rest off time.
Is this the first time you’d seen it? My wife hadn’t seen it either so we sat down to watch it and I had forgotten how great that movie was. And Tom Hanks is probably the best actor out there.
People love to hate on Forrest Gump. I love it too.
It’s quite strange how different you view it as you grow up. When I was kid, I felt sorry for Jenny. Then I got a bit older, I felt for Forrest. Now, when I watch it I feel for both.
In post-war Rome, a working class man named Antonio is struggling to find work when he is offered a decent enough job putting up posters around the city. The job however is dependent on his having a bicycle. Out of work and in poverty, Antonio’s wife decides to pawn their only possession worth money… Their bed sheets. He gets his bicycle back in return.
On the first day of his new job, Antonio’s bicycle is stolen. He sets out with his friends and his very young son Bruno to see if they can get it back.
I think you’ve watched it before? Cos I remember reading about this somewhere and thinking I must watch it and then completely forgetting about it until now
Also my two bikes cost the guts of a grand each. Either those are some fancy ass bedsheets or that’s a piece of shit bike
Na, I’d never seen it before. Though, might you possibly be getting it confused with this? That’s the only other Italian film I’ve seen. Also has a man and his son as the main protagonists.
Haha. Apparently they were very nice bedsheets. Worth 7,500 Lira. (whatever that means in modern GBP/Euro. )
