Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Kind of sad to see life get a stranglehold on childhood favourite Lydia Deetz, tbh. Jenna Ortega is good, but Catherine O'Hara steals the show. Monica Bellucci's in it with nothing to do but look ravishing at sixty.
Visually, aside from the afterlife scenes, the film doesn't pop like the original.
6/10
Pussy was right.Thought Rebel Ridge started off well but it turned into a snooze fest. Crap ending and it was 45 minutes too long.
We watched them last summer. In fairness, the last one is a slog. The first two are great though.started watching the nolan batman trilogy with two of mine here over the weekend.
these fucking tiktok children!
the first one was too slow. the second one was too complicated and long. they’ve refused to watch the third one.
anyway, the first one 8/10
the second one 9/10
the third one, without the children seeing it, for me 5/10.
the last one is terrible but for some reason got rave reviews. it was three odd hours of tense music trying to set the scene whereas the only thing of consequence to happen was bane at the football field.We watched them last summer.

Mine are 8, but they are utter wusses! We're currently watching the Harry Potter movies and they are struggling to deal with the dememtors.the last one is terrible but for some reason got rave reviews. it was three odd hours of tense music trying to set the scene whereas the only thing of consequence to happen was bane at the football field.
not sure how old yours are but my eldest are 11 and 10.
mr.duke 10 has problems sitting still for more than twenty minutes.
ms.duke 11 has no problem engaging for a few hours.
the pacing of the dark knight is perfect for anyone of that age. massive blasts of action and then small lulls before it all kicks off again.
