I'd much rather watch Megan Fox than John Malkovich. [emoji106]

Megan fox has about as much talent as in john malcovich's baby toe. Never got why she became popular.. She's not even that nice to look at

Watched the dig on netflix. Was actually looking forward to it because it had the premise of a good story. Was so badly directed and the story so badly told I would give it a 4 at best

Why? I watched it last night and thought it was pretty good. Badly directed? The last of the manor character Mrs Pretty was a bit irritating though.

John Malkovich irritates me. Seems to over act his roles. Takes himself too seriously I think. But ja Megan Fox is eye candy not an actor

They seemed to suddenly stumble on the ending.. Like they had run out of time, so rather just summarise the ending with some screen text (The key find was also a burial mask which they seemed to ignore)

 

The rain was continuously over dramatised throughout the movie. It would have been a non event for an experienced archeologist in the united kingdom. A lot of scenes were unnecessarily dragged out at the expense of the plot. The war was brought into the storyline way too much even though it had no real impact expect to aid a cliche love story

Thanks for the detailed response.

watched that a while back. Really enjoyed it as well. Vigo Mort....whatever is always good. Another one from him that is good is A History of Violence

Eastern Promises is also good if you like dark violence. Got one of the most 'memorable' fight scenes of any movie, I'd dare claim. One of my favourites is Hidalgo, though, and it's based on a true story. Plus, Viggo apparently has a thing for horses, which makes the movie great to watch. And if you like Westerns you should check him out in Appaloosa with Ed Harris, an undervalued gem in my opinion.

Yes Hidalgo, I've seen that. Very good.

Accomplice on Netflix

 

Surprised it has not surfaced for discussion here.

 

Maybe I'm the one that is a bit slow. (on and off the bike)

I thought it was great then midway it felt like it was on repeat/monotonous  and I clicked out ..... some brilliant riding and cinemaphotography though.
