    Just watched Dog. Was actually okay. Biggest surprise was how much weight Ethan Suplee has lost. Bloke looks totally different.

    We watched that earlier and enjoyed it. The dog/s acted their paws off and Channing Tatum is a bit like Ryan Reynolds im being a good looking bastard who seems to be playing a version of himself, wonderfully sarcastic throughout. 

    Ethan Suplee is an inspiration how he looks physically now from when he was in American History X or my name is Earl 

    I enjoyed Bill Burrs cameo too

    The Adam Project - Thoroughly enjoyed it. Feel good factor, plenty of laughs and family friendly. What's not to like?

    8/10
    Agree. Thought the kid was excellent.

    Just watched the Adam Project myself, great film... the kid is practically a young Ryan Reynolds

    I fully expected it to be a typical Reynolds / Deadpool type appearance from him, but thought it was a great performance from him, something slightly different - Really enjoy it.

    Real shame, he's been ill for some time. Great actor.

    Yeah that’s true. The Happening is still top dog. Followed by The Lady in the Water. Then Glass. 
    I take it you mean in terms of awfulness.

    That's the only way to measure Shyamalan!

    Turning Red - Pixar's latest isn't great. It's decent, and perfectly fine for a younger audience. It just doesn't have that adult appeal that most of their output has. Even if it is set in the early 2000s. I found the kids in it too irritating sadly. 

    It also lacks the subtlety and genius of Inside Out, which dealt in similar themes.  

    3/6

    My missus and daughter watched it over the weekend. Missus said it led in to 'that' conversation between mums and daughters.

    It's put me off watching it, that's for sure.

    Cor I didn't think of it from that angle. The whole thing is an allegory for girls getting to a certain age, and while that should be celebrated (it's not something mainstream movies ever go near) I am so glad I don't have a 12 year old daughter!!

    Just watched Phantom of the Open and nice little feel good film. Don't have to know golf to enjoy it but kept thinking BFG was the main character. Based on a true story too.

    Has anyone seen ‘Everything Everywhere all at Once’? The reviews are extremely promising.

    I just got half way through The Bubble on Netflix and had to apologise to my fiancé before turning it off and vowing we would never watch the second hour.

    After some mildly amusing dialogue in the first 15 minutes or so it turned into something I still believe was made as a bet to see how big of an expensively produced dump you can take and how many people will watch the dump harden 

    Appalling film

    I thought it was dire, nothing new and done poorly. So bored, i stopped watching after 30 mins. 2/10.

    Joe Bell. I didn't know the story before, despite being based on a true story, it could have been better told. It's genuinely a heartbreaking tale, but the arc was so predictable. Poorly cast with Wahlberg, the guy has such a limited toolbelt. 3/10

    I watched it with my kids. They enjoyed it. As a result, I enoyed it as well. Harmless fun and probably isn't a film directed at middle aged men.

    Still, on the plus side, it got 10/10 if we combine our scores. So, that's something to be positive about.

    Stay happy  :)

    Saw Drive My Car last week as it returned to my local picturehouse.
    It's not going to appeal to a huge audience as it requires time (3 hours) and patience. It's a slow film, surprisingly based on a short story, but if you have the staying power for three hours of subtitles it is a very rewarding watch. Interesting insight into some aspects of modern Japanese culture too. I love Saab 900s (the proper ones, not that GM shit) so spent half the film drooling over the car in the same way other people might over Scarlett Johansson.

    I can see kids loving that film but it had a really generic look and feel about it. 

    Tom Cruise was attached to the project at one point and I can imagine it working if it had a more serious tone about it, which he would no doubt bring. I'd imagine he would insist on making the poignant stuff more meaningful, and probably remove the fart jokes. But Reynolds, as much as I like him, just brings that snippy approach to dialogue that makes his films seem very samey.

    The missus suggested this one a couple of weeks ago, I was not fussed and thought I would give it 15 minutes and shuffle off and do something else if it was rubbish. However I got into it and we both enjoyed it.

    Caught 'Fantastic Creatures -Secrets of Dumbledore' last night. I don't know how they've done it but all the magic of Harry Potter has utterly vanished. I found the opening half hour utterly dull, there were unlikely plot lines, no humour, and while it picked up at the end, I'll be giving any follow up's a big swerve.
    4/10
