Palatkik Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Mother![2017] Barely watchable insane thriller, more art house than substance, about a tormented poet in his new home he shares with his latest young wife and countless other visitors he invites.

Coss Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Revenge (2017) - IMDB - Never take your mistress on an annual guys' getaway, especially one devoted to hunting - a violent lesson for three wealthy married men. I liked this, but you'll have to believe that a petite hottie, can do all the war soldier stuff this one can, after being impaled on a tree. But, pull the, 'suspension of disbelief' lever and enjoy the blood and gore. Worth a watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 The Shape Of Water [2017] An aquatic R rated equivalent of Beauty And The Beast is interesting for its unusual theme and performances but overall is more style than any substance. Available in Dvd screener format. Watched this - The Shape of Water (2017) - as Palatkik says, style, everything is a subdued Teal colour. Not a bad movie, but neither is it a stand out. Wet. Worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Samson (2018) - the Biblical tale, with Delilah and everything, a lot of smoting going on, verily with the Jawbone of an Ass, no less. Quite a placid watch, not at all proselytizing in theme, just a good 'ol story of circa 3,000 years ago. Good if you don't know the story. Not bad if you do.

Coss Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 All The Money In The World [2017] Paul Getty kidnapping caper, of interest for fully deleting the lead role of Kevin Spacey with Christopher Plummer following the former's sex impropriety allegations. A drawn out movie with rigid acting other than that of Plummers who betters the rest by far and only stepped in at the last minute. saw this last evening - not bad, worth a watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 What Lies Upstream **** In this scandalous political thriller, an investigation into a chemical spill spirals into an indictment of the entire system meant to protect drinking water, revealing cover-ups at the highest levels of government. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5165878/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Fahrenheit 451 (2018) - If you don't know the story, this is a good version of it. an updating of the Ray Bradbury tale - actually quite good I reckon, in that it's been modernised to show social media and a dumbed down version at that. Fairly Hollywood, but worth a watch. Michael Shannon, does a lot of bad guys, and is good as a bad guy in this. It is tempting to draw a parallel between this movie and the present USA, but I'll leave it for the viewer to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 King Lear (2018 TV) A modern day British adaption of the Shakespearean classic, worth watching to see the skills of the cast put to wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
