Watched this masterpiece again yesterday.

 

Watched this and Soldado one Fri and Sat nights - brilliant.

I see that there is a 3rd in the making.

 

Wow! Josh Brolin has been around for a while. 

 

I always used to think that del Toro looked like Brad Pitt's darker and evil brother

It's hard not to compare the sequel.

Soldado can stand on its own two feet. 

 

Dennis Villeneuve though. What a director.

Thanks for the reminder - I finally watched it last night.

 

I went trough patches where I had to remind myself to breath!

 

Certainly one of the best movies this year

 

Few glaring plotholes but cinematically just wow.

We watched Five Feet Apart last night.  Been scratching the bottom of the Netflix and iTunes barrel of late so this one was a bit of a risk but I really enjoyed it.  Keep some tissues handy.

 

We couldn't make it through Extraction and 6 Underground, and from a Series side Freud and Money Heist lasted one episode.

 

We enjoyed The Stranger (binged until 3am) and The Bodyguard.  The English Game is also quite good I thought.

Still one of my favourates

 

Worked through all of these at the beginning of lockdown. It just does not get old.

 

I started Ford vs Ferrari last night, had to stop to get some sleep, as I only started watching lateish.

My daughter was introduced to Jason Bourne last night... Can you believe it's been 18 years since the first one!

Read the Bourne Identity book many moons ago. Then watched the movie when it came out. The book was riveting and the movie equally so.

Ford V Ferrari

 

Excellente!!!!

 

Watched The Gentlemen last night. Thouroughly entertaining. Lots of parallels being drawn between Lock Stock, I cant comment, as I have not seen Lock stock in ages. (I will re-watch soon)

 

I like Gritchey's movies, Sherlock Holmes, King Arthur, they were all very entertaining. He has a refreshing, I assume very pommie way of telling stories, and using different english stereotypes, to portray specific roles.
