The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005)

Cheesey and different but bloody great

[8/10 · 5 January 2020]

Highly rate this, can watch it over and over no dramas. Massive fan off the Mighty Mos Def which might make me a bit biased because I can't stand Dhildo Baggins but I love it.

Got a bit of everything in it, comedy, seriousness and terrific special effects. All the actors work so together, especially Sam Rockwell, he cracks me up!

Well worth a watch/laugh

Messiah: The Finger of God (2020) Season 1, Episode 3

Entertained, great special effects

[8/10 · 5 January 2020]

Terrific special effects, deserves more credit than what it has I think - was done well without being over the top

Really appreciated getting a bit of character depth in this episode, starting to see who people really

The story for me is still a bit up in the air, there doesn't seem to be much direction but what the story lacks the dialogue and acting makes up for, in my opinion.

Will continue watching 100%

Messiah: Tremor (2020) Season 1, Episode 2

Step up from the first

[8/10 · 5 January 2020]

It is slow but I feel although it is ramping up, one of those ones we might have to be patient with till it establishes where it is heading. I do like the two different stories going on at this stage, will be interesting to see how they link up/connect. My only downfall would be the jumping between different languages in the same sentences, might have been done on purpose but I find it kind of annoying

Looking forward to the next episode!

Messiah: He That Hath an Ear (2020) Season 1, Episode 1

Has me interested

[7/10 · 5 January 2020]

I thought it was rather well done, nice little spin at the end left me wondering.

Something a little bit different thats for sure, people probably giving it average reviews because its a concept that hasn't been put on display much.

I think its worth a watch for sure

The Mandalorian: Chapter 8: Redemption (2019) Season 1, Episode 8

Best Star Wars action seen In a long time

[9/10 · 3 January 2020]

This episode is the best of the series by a street, not to say the others were no good but this just took it to a whole new level. To be honest I wanted it to just keep going, great action and dialogue

Side note: the humour at the start was hilarious, why can't they create that humour in the movies (not just dumb cheesy, cringe worthy one liners).

Absolutely gold, highly recommend, Star Wars fan or not it will have you on the edge of your seat the entire way through.

You: Love, Actually (2019) Season 2, Episode 10

Good build up, but everyone one could see the twist coming

[6/10 · 3 January 2020]

Was well done the whole series, but I know I could see the twist coming from about 3 episodes in.

Kept me entertained, although not a scratch on the first season.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 7: The Reckoning (2019) Season 1, Episode 7

Big Improvement From The Last Episode

[8/10 · 3 January 2020]

I honestly thought it was really going down hill The Mandalorian after Episode 6: The Prisoner aka Run down the same hallway 40 times and not develop on the story at all.

But I'm glad to say this was a absolute beauty of an episode. Plenty of action and finally some development on the story (although not much) it was enough to keep you watching and highly entertained

Great dialogue and action, a must watch. One of the better episodes for sure!!!!

Suburbicon (2017)

Entertaining enough

[6/10 · 17 December 2019]

Not great but enough to keep me watching, thought it might have been a bit darker and might have appealed a bit more if it was. Too much like Edward Sissorhands turn Truman show.

Damon does pretty well as always but the kid in the film is just woeful, has witnessed half a dozen murders and then proceeds to go throw a baseball in the backyard with his friend like its another magical day in Suburbicon. Didn't leave the best taste in my mouth at the end of the film.

6 Stars for being different, could have been a whole lot better though!

You (2018–2024)

Lead plays a great role

[7/10 · 17 December 2019]

Modern day creeps shown on display here with the use of technology.

Can drag in places but the twists makes up for it 100%

Worth a watch for sure

The Sinner (2017–2021)

Very good

[8/10 · 17 December 2019]

The second season aside the first is absolutely binge watching gold

Jessica Biel stars and keeps you on the edge of the seat the entire season

Has a bit of everything with a great twist at the end!

Other than some strange direction with Detectives weird unnecessary fetish it delivers on all levels

Cant wait till she is back in it in Season 3!!!!

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

On par with the first

[7/10 · 17 December 2019]

Once again a terrific job by everyone involved

If you enjoyed the first one go pick this one up asap

Very entertaining complete with an outstanding soundtrack

Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

Awesome cast - great story

[7/10 · 17 December 2019]

Worth a watch 100%, all the cast plays their roll so well

Killed a couple of stars with some too cheesy humour for my liking

Must watch

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)

Absolutely terrific

[8/10 · 17 December 2019]

Do yourself and get stuck into it. Great immersion and terrific acting by the two leads

I was entertained the whole way through

Star Wars, Total Recall and Guardians of the Galaxy all rolled into one.

Well worth a watch

Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018)

CGI Overload

[3/10 · 17 December 2019]

As the title says this is just riddled with the overuse of CGI

Accompanied with abysmal acting, John Boyega is pathetic in this. Terrible dialogue and less than average acting in what could have been a massive step up from the first film

Don't waste your time

Gravity (2013)

Had potential but fails

[4/10 · 17 December 2019]

Was really looking forward to this but does not deliver the goods what so ever

Massive fan of Clooney but really didn't deliver on this.

Average story and the dialogue is just ridiculous

Don't bother wasting your time

Interstellar (2014)

Best SciFi ever made?

[9/10 · 17 December 2019]

Gripping story line with terrific acting Matthew absolutely is in his element in this.

Great story with great acting

Without out looking into the realism or physics of it too much it is outstanding. Could watch over and over if need be

Highly recommend

Sunshine (2007)

One of the best

[8/10 · 17 December 2019]

Absolute cracker of a film, wont bother going into too much detail but well worth a watch if you are into the space/ scifi genre

Would be in my top 3 of this Genre

Well worth a watch for the great acting and effects, very underrated

Bird Box (2018)

Not sure what all the hype is about

[17 December 2019]

Completely ridiculous and not worth going into specifics about.

Took me two attempts to watch

Great concept but miserably fails on poor acting and stupid dialogue

Ready Player One (2018)

Fails to deliver

[4/10 · 17 December 2019]

Was really keen for this and it really could have been something special but fails to dish out the goods on most levels. Very average acting is the main killer.

Okay story line but not much to keep you hanging on with minimal sub plots

I will give it high praise for the CGI which I believe is next level in the film industry, one of the few movies that is allowed to have this amount of FX

4 stars for amazing CGI

Baywatch (2017)

Joke of a film

[2/10 · 17 December 2019]

Not much say other than typical Hollywood trash

Don't waste your time, not funny and not entertaining at all

I Am Mother (2019)

Starts well - Ends bad

[4/10 · 17 December 2019]

Really gets you going for the first half hour but once she has escapes the movie really loses is punch

4 stars for some nice special effects and Swank holding up her end of the bargain as always

John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017)

Typical Keanu Reeves

[3/10 · 17 December 2019]

I have no clue how this movies has so many good reviews. Keanu Reeves is one of the most boring and mundane actors to ever be put on show out of Hollywood and the fan boys love him (Not to mention he was the laughing stock of the film industry for many years - Speed.....)

Typical of his movies is the standard boring dialogue, I mean he does not have any character at all. Didn't even make it to the end it, put me to sleep

Would not even attempt to watch this overrated garbage even if I was paid to.

3 stars purely for some nice fight scenes which is for his stunt double (Not him fan boys!)

Get Out (I) (2017)

Sucks you in

[7/10 · 17 December 2019]

Very interesting concept and for a low budget film it exceeds most expectations. Acting is terrific I must say and the cult really has you on the edge of the seat Couple of twists that really shock you

Well worth a watch

Highly Rate

Annihilation (I) (2018)

Scary Without Trying To Hard

[6/10 · 17 December 2019]

Well worth a watch, without giving anything away the screams from the creatures are terrifying. Doesn't try to be anything it is this film and delivers on a little bit of everything. Portman does a terrific job. CGI drops a couple stars for it being pretty average and over used in places

Lunatics (2019)

Chris Lilley smashes it once again

[7/10 · 16 December 2019]

If you are not a fan I wouldn't bother wasting your time.

But if you are, you are going to love it. Once again grabs similarities from his other shows as far back as We Can Be Heroes. While it might not be as clean and well polished as some of his earlier shows he still pushing the boundaries of comedy and still retains the hilarity of Chris Lilley that his fans love.

Highly Rate!!
