We Are Your Friends (2015)
Always wanted to watch this as it looked kinda similar to Entourage which I loved. The film didnāt disappoint! really enjoyed it and it had the bonus of having Emily Ratajkowski as the main girl in it 
Spoiler if you ever intend on watching. Also had one of the guys dying of an MDA overdose which I did not expect.
Arrival (2016)
Great film, I really enjoyed it. Donāt think itās for everyone though. Itās nearly crept into IMDBās Top 100 all-time. Impressive.

I bet im one of those it wont be for. 
Iāve been watching a fair few documentaries lately. Real stories are just grabbing me a bit more I guess. Two I watched recently are Man vs Snake which is about a guys attempt to recapture his world record in 80s arcade classic Nibbler and Queen Mimi which is about a homeless lady who has ālivedā in a laundromat in Hollywood for the last 20+ years but has ended up being friends with lots of people including Zack Galifinakis. Id highly recommend both.
Youād like King of Kong I reckon, excellent documentary about old school gaming with some very bizarre characters.
Cheers, will check that out. Another one Iād highly recommend is Atari: Game Over. Its based around a guy trying to get to the bottom of whether or not all the unsold ET cartridges got buried in the desert.

Very good film with a very good flow to it, lots of suspense. especially when you think a scene is over but isnāt. great camera work, very good acting, especially from Stephen Lang who all too often i find to be a very wooden actor.
Hoping to walk away with a massive fortune, a trio of thieves break into the house of a blind man who isnāt as helpless as he seems.

Went to the cinema yesterday to watch the new sci-fi Arrival. I was really looking forward to it, but left a little disappointed.
Itās very well acted and directed, and definitely better than most sci-fi, so I did quite like it, but the essential premise didnāt quite work for me, and the depiction of China as the new crazy cold war Russians didnāt really feel right either, not to mention a bit fucking racist.
Maybe a 7 out of 10. Probably get Oscars though.
Caught the last hour or so of Wedding Crashers after the match as I chanced upon it on the telly. Iād forgotten how much I love that film

Edit: god knows what emoji suits this. Tongue in cheek, not rude.
Ah mate. Rachel McAdams. FIT.
Toni Erdmann (2016)
An aging man who doesnāt get to see much of his workaholic daughter travels to Romania where she is working as a consultant in order to try to reconnect with her. Utilising a bizarre alter ego, he follows his daughter around as she meets friends, works and hosts parties. Annoying her every step of the way.
Seems to have a rather big reputation atm but I just didnāt get it. I watched it to the end so obviously I didnāt hate it, just didnāt really grab me. Probably give it another watch a few months down the line and see what I think then.
I watched High Rise yesterday. I was encouraged by the first half an hour or so but it really went to shit after that imo. It was a bit of a mess.
Thatās the Hiddlestone one isnāt it. Think I felt the same way, was enjoying the set up then it turned into some hacky British cinema disaster.
Waste of a lot of good actors.

Wristcutters: A Love Story (2006)
Zia, a young man just dumped by his girlfriend commits suicide and is sent to a place of purgatory where suicides go where he meets a quirky Russian man Eugene who becomes his friend. Shortly after his arrival, Zia discovers his ex-girlfriend also committed suicide shortly after him. Upon hearing this he persuades his Russian friend to take to the road to look for her.
During their travels they meet Mikal, a girl who, convinced she doesnāt belong there, travels around looking for the P.I.C (people in charge) so she can be restored back to her life.
One of those quirky, weird films that although about a dark topic, manages to be quite funny. Enjoyed it until the end.

So youāre saying he trades in his cushy job for a kushy job?

Anyone seen La La Land yet? The reviews and ratings are ridiculously highā¦ Plus Emma Stone stars in it 
Considering going to it, but thereās a lot of singing in it, which usually puts me off. Might have to make an exception.
