Let's have a films thread.

John Hurt diagnosed with early stage pancreatic cancer

Very sad he's such a great actor.

If you are going to do 100 of these, you need to mix it up a bit. Do the next one like Leicesterpool.

If he doesn't post in the Tinder thread and joined after 2006 I have no idea who that is.

Jurassic World- You know what you're going to get with these films, the plot's predictable but the action is great. 8/10

[General Smuts]

5/100 - Life Partners - 8/10

Another great flick with a twist on both romantic and buddy comedies. It never seems forced or trite and was genuine and funny.

Love how Leicesterpool was the post straight after this and just ignored it.

 

Jurassic World - cheesy, light-hearted action but found myself enjoying it anyway. 7/10.

[Leicesterpool]

I enjoyed Jurrassic World, they did just about enough to get away with it without ruining the original story. The trailer for Terminator came on too, it looks dreadful, they've completely ****ed it up.

The Terminator trailer have done the same with what they did with Salvation by giving too much away again.

6/100 - Adult Beginners - 8/10

Really enjoying these indie comedies with casts of TV actors I like. Love Nick Kroll in The League and was expecting an out and out comedy like that. This was a way more subtle family flick filled with mid life crises and it was great. Some real laugh out loud moments.

Watching Lone Survivour

Worth watching Jurassic World in 3D or is 2D alright?

I saw it in 2D and thought it was just fine. I can't tell you if it's any better in 3D though.

It Follows - disappointing after reading such rave reviews for it. Not unsettling, not scary, but an OK thriller. 6/10

Agreed. I found it slightly creepy & nothing else.

[General Smuts]

7/100 - Jurassic World - 9/10

Only watched it on my little laptop screen but that was still really exciting. Jake Johnson and Chris Pratt managing to bring the laughs as well. Really great flick.

[General Smuts]

8/100 - Tammy - 5/10

Bang average but watchable. Mark Duplass is criminally underused.

[Rincewind]

Just starting on ITV 4(21.00)  Casino Royale  the David Niven original followedby Deathwish 2.Cant be bothered to flick through any more channels.

[General Smuts]

9/100 - Tomorrowland - 7/10

An Inconvenient Truth the theme park ride. Pretty fun flick that turned real preachy in the final act. The young actress who played the robot is ****ing terrible.

You got a good copy of Jurassic World, Smuts? I've got one but it's rubbish.

Downloaded Entourage The Movie, got bored and deleted it after 20 minutes, worse film i've seen in a long long time. Mark Kermode's review of it is pretty funny as well...

 

[General Smuts]

Sorry Webbo!

Rush on Chan 4 at 9pm about the rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda

The Gunman- Good old fashioned action thriller 7/10

[The Blur]

Watched Gascoigne documentary- I already read his book so I knew most of the stories but it was still interesting to see these being recounted on the screen.  Loved ostrich and bus story! I thought contributors apart from Lineker was rubbish- Rooney just bleated on about how great he was and Mourinho was not much better expect for his story about watching the FA Cup final where Gascoigne got injured. Lineker on the other hand was an excellent contributor and I loved how animated he got sometimes. I think they should have asked Terry Venables.

 

It was also good to see Gascoigne looking fairly healthy compared to past few years. It was bit annoying that they cut away to a shot of Gascoigne and others rubbing their eyes or making other gestures a lot.  I know it is to capture emotion but the documentary makers overdid it.

Jurassic World - Exciting but totally ridiculous.

 

It's Deep Blue Sea except it's a dinosaur instead of a shark.

[bovril]

I also watched the Gascoigne doc. Great footage from the most talented English footballer ever, but as a documentary it was a bit crap. As Blur points out, getting Mourinho and Rooney as talking heads was a bit odd. And to be honest I could have done with subtitles to understand Gazza himself.
