Dr Strange.  Really enjoyed it, definitely in the top 3 Marvel films.  Fully recommend seeing it if you haven't already.

Yeah, it's really good isn't it.

It wasn't bad, really good is stretching it a bit, imo.

Yep.  Storyline's all a bit too familiar and there were a couple of points where they rushed a bit to advance the plotline but that's alright because the characters/actors were great (apart from the boring girlfriend) and the effects and battle sequences were impeccable.  Not to mention it had a good sense of humour too, the bit with the coat lapels got me

Shut up Webbo.  

Couldn't have put it better myself, 

 

I liked that they included an infinity stone, I was kicking myself for not realising that's what the eye was, but it's interesting that marvel have chosen the less mainstream comics to have a stone in their movie.

Just watched Now You See Me.

 

What a load, of pretentious twaddle with implausible plotlines that have grappling holes. Can't believe they're making a sequel.

T2 was amazing. Loved every second of it. For some reason made me want to watch Edgar Wright's The World's End, which I'm doing now.

They made a sequel.  It's called Now You See Me 2.

Just saw Split, I thought the ending was really cool and I didn't see it coming until the music. James McAvoy was top notch to do all those different characters in one film. I thought the main bulk of the film was a tad slow but I was left satisfied by all the possibilities at the end. 

 

6.5/10

Surely should have called it Now You See Me Again.

Watched Sing Street over the weekend. 

Lovely and really funny bitter sweet love story with a cracking soundtrack.

or the filmed in real time sequel See Me Now

Saw Lion and Hawksaw Ridge yesterday and highly recommend both.

 

I'm emotionally retarded but the end of both films, in particular Lion, got my eyes watering.

[Babylon]

Arrival and Hacksaw are both very good.

 

Watched La La Land, it was ok... felt like I drifted out of it a few times though. This "alternate ending" on youtube made me piss though.

Watched The Shining for the umpteenth time the other day. Can anyone recommend a film that rewards repeated viewing so much? So many layers and hidden meanings to it.

Thought La La Land was ok once my missus stopped complaining about how crap it was and fell sleep. 

 

Hacksaw Ridge is outstanding, one of the best films I've seen.

Recently, I'd also say Inception and Interstellar. 

It's a good question though, I'd be interested in what others suggest...

Even more recent I'd say Arrival.

 

Fight Club probably comes in that category.

 

Comedy wise the cornetto trilogy tend to have some layers to them on social commentary.

I've watched step brothers more times than any other film it's not got any deep narratives or anything of substance but it's shit eating grin funny

[Guest seanfox778]

I've watched Pulp Fiction quite a few times over the years, always good value for repeated viewings. American Beauty is another good one.
