I adore everyone in my own way. But my favorite is Chris Columbus. Still, he made Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. By the way, right now I'm reviewing all the Harry Potter movies on YouTube. I do not have fast Internet and therefore I download videos from YouTube using the program that I downloaded here. It helps me download videos in one click.

Star Wars: Episode IX the rise of Skywalker

 

6/10

Something flat and predictable about this last part of the trilogy

Plot holes or leaps

 

Great performance by Adam Driver

Becoming very consistent now

The editing in the initial scenes... ????‍♂️????‍♂️????‍♂️

 

No flow and a standard "last ditch" Star-Wars recipe for success. Rey was overdone, in an attempt to make her more relatable, imo. A solid meh.

 

Beautiful visuals, though. And that little dude fixing 3po. ????

Two Popes

 

 

Jonathan Pryce and Anthony Hopkins were outstanding.

 

 

Just finished it

So many layers

 

I am a big Tony fan

Jonathan Pryce's performance was a big surprise - superb

Just finished 6 Underground on Netflix, awesome movie, loads of poking at other movies (Ryan Reynolds) directed by Michael Bay. Really just lekker to watch, loads of detail in the SFX, look out for the small details hidden.

It was a great idea, badly executed. Maybe needed to be a bit longer, some subplots felt rushed.

 

Michael Bay is becoming a bit tedious now.

The Irishman is a masterpiece.

 

It is long so clear you evening or afternoon when you watch it and make sure there are no distractions, give it all the attention it deserves.

 

Filmaking at it's finest..

 

What was really nice was watching it with my eldest (the youngstest didn't join us).. he is a bit of a movie buff and appreciates great filmaking, something rare in teenagers. It has now replaced the Deer Hunter as his favourite movie.

 

It's a 10/10 from me

Loved it, when Joe and Marty join forces, magic happens!

I thought it was only me that felt this way. The movie was a confusing mess to me. Was a lot of fun to watch though. Some funny part and loved the action. A true little boy movie full of way out ideas

Attempting to watch the new Rambo movie, but the sound levels are a bit irritating. And Sylvesters way of talking makes the dialog just irritating. I know the man has speech problems, but hearing what a person says is important in movies. So lost the plot already...

Maybe go back a "few years" and enjoy the mastery of Rocky .... the one with the unfortunate "Aaaddrriiaaan" part in it. A really brilliant and well shot movie :P
