Rate the last movie you watched out of 10

Singers Supes suffered as his Lois was shockingly miscast. Routh was OK but there wasn't a whole lot of story there.

Id completely forgotten about that movie.

I went in cold and tbh I enjoyed it.

I really , really have gone off reviews in general. You get someone who is incapable of throwing together 300 words without giving away some major aspect of the plot.It takes away from the movie experience.

The main dude was perfectly cast. Nicholas Hoult had a ball as Lex Luthor, really chewing the scenery.

I agree its very much a James Gunn joint but thats why DC hired him and I think he delivered.

Goofy action with a heart.( & liberal lashings of Nathan Fillion).


The superhero genre is very much a cooked goose at this point. We're on the fifth(?) iteration of Batman since 89. This is SuperMan number three since Christopher Reeve hung up the cape. The X-men are on their 3rd set of casting. (Don't start me on all the awful Marvel tv shows).

Id say Gunn has very much delivered his SuperMan among the cluttered jumble of the DC/Marvel megaplex crowdpleasers. I think its (just about) the best Supes since Donner's SuperMan II.

The Lois & Clark dynamic works and even Jimmy Olsen delivers. I was undecided at first but Krypto won me over at the end.

I'll give it a respectable 7/10.

I thought the guy who played Lex Luthor did a great job. He was an utter cunt for the whole movie and i couldnt wait for him to get his comeuppance. But when he got his comeuppance he made me feel sorry for him. Not many actors can do that.

Heads of state 8/10


We loved the madcap idiotic action scenes. Enough said.

He's right too. Off the top of my head

How do you like them apples?

Get busy living or get busy dying.

So you're saying there's a chance?

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

Now we are seven.

Life is like a box of chocolates.

You blew it, you blew it. I gave you the chance to be a real cop and you blew it.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Etc etc. I'll bet everyone here can identify all or most of those films from those single quotes.

All films from at least 20 years ago some from much longer.

Dangerous Animals 6/10

I like shark movies and this is good. Jai Courtney is brilliant. It waned abit towards the end but overall its good fun & gorey

memoir of a snail
solid 8/10

stop motion aussie film. a woman who loves snails tells her life story to her favourite snail.

it got me in the feels a few times but that’s because there’s parts of it reflecting my own life right now. also, i watched it at an outdoor cinema with my daughter so with the setting and company it felt kind of special too.

this hasn’t anything to do with the above film because it’s genuinely good but it’s always interesting to find someone who liked some shit film only because it might reflect where they are in life or it reminds them of someone they lost, where they watched it, etc.

vanilla sky is not a great film but i watched it at a poignant time in my life.

i watched there’s something about mary on video with my nan and i genuinely thought she was going to die laughing when ben stiller caught his cock in his zip

The Omen starting on BBC2 at 11

40 Acres 7/10

14 odd years after a fungus wipes out most of the animals on the planet and the resulting civil war and famine, a family hold up on a well defended farm, warring against blight, themselves and marauding gangs.

Action, family and bloody guts, what a cracker of a film that no one knows about.

Happy Gilmore 2, loved it, so many laugh out loud moments and celebrity cameos. So many link backs to original
