I've been to see Wonder Woman.

Loved it.

There were lots of dads there with children who were to young to watch it. The Dads enjoyed the film while the kids enjoyed the buckets of popcorn and played on phones.
 ;)

Just watched WW.  Bloody loved it.  After the huge disappointment of Suicide Squad and Batman Vs Superman, I wasn't expecting much, but it was superb.  Deffo one of the best superhero movies I've ever seen.

It's been a while and I know how much you have all missed it lol

MotoGp-  Germany round 9. As the teams reach the half way point of the season and head into the summer break.
1st Marc Marquez Repsol Honda
2nd Jonas Folger Tech 3 Yamaha
3rd Dani Pedrosa Repsol Honda.
Marquez now leads the championship for the first time this season with Vinales 5 points back , Dovizioso 6 points behind and Rossi 10 points behind.
Got to be the tightest championship ever with 10 points covering the top 4 and Dani Pedrosa only 26 points behind his team mate Marquez

Wonder woman,  overall a good film , a bit slow to start , the action didn't kick in till she went "over the wire" n into "no man's land " (sorry couldn't resist)  . Thought "spuds" part was a bit ott - come on is that how the world sees a stereotypical Scots man.

A entertaining enough way to spend a couple of hours

Did anyone else check out 'Broken'?  Sean Bean, Anna Friel, written by Jimmy Mcgovern? Finally got around to the first episode and it was superb.  I sense a binge-watch coming up...

 King Arthur.  Entertaining enough but far too much cgi for me . Very much the fantasy version of the story.  Strangely the bad guy was very similar to the wonder woman one . Lots of Guy Richie jump cuts and lots of dodgy cockney accents especially from Arthur himself  ( Jacs  soa)

Yeah saw that too, it was the very definition of 'just OK'...

As for Jax, at least he wasn't swaggering around like a rapper with his jeans halfway down his arse... love SOA but I've seen a few bikers over the years and I'm pretty sure none of them acted like that...  ;)

Cinema trip this afternoon, saw 'Baby Driver' from the guy who did Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz, The Worlds End and Scott Pilgrim Vs The World.  Hugely hyped, five star reviews all around... it wasn't quite that good, but was a solidly enjoyable watch.  Worth a peep, IMO, trailer here.

just a few days ago watched the 'Silence" by Martin Scorsese.Story of catholic priests sailing to Japan as missioners to teach the christianity and catholic way.Including very violent scenes but good cinematography.Worth to watch.One of the reasons why japan is like that way even today and an island culture they never let it disturbed by others coming across the island from faraway lands.You could see a lot of suffering and pain and priest questioning god,himself  and religion and why christ is so silence despite all these torment and pain.
If the japanese landlords and local monarchy would have let them to teach,today's japan might have never been exist.You can take the story anyway you like.Liam Neeson acts fine but appears in a short time.It is a very violent movie,I won't make an artistic criticism but it is a true story and although I hate the violence in movies and in real life,all these things have happened I believe.

Just finished watching 'Broken'.  Damn, someone around here must be frying some onions, seeing as how a cynical old sod like me went so eye-leaky at the end...  :'(

Nikita, such a great film, haven't watched in years, remade into a poor US TV show and an even worse US film remake.

I'm not a great fan of Luc Besson but i quite like "Subway" and "Nikita", some good performances from Anne Parillaud and Jean-Hughes Anglade, effective story and action scenes in this film.
Besson's new movie will be released in two weeks, the biggest budget ever for a french movie!

I remember seen Nikita and thought it was good. A classic. Fifth Element was also one of his works?

Guillaume, how about, what are your favourites in French films? Cristophe Gans (f.e. "The Brotherhood of the Wolves" - Le Pacte Des Loups)? In late 90's when I saw it after Kassowitz' Les Rivières pourpres I was very excited about French films. I remember it was fascinating to find out the way of storytelling was so different when compared to Hollywood films.  :)

I'm still waiting for a DVD or Blu of 'Savage Nights' to appear in the UK... not only a great film but to my knowledge, the only time an NMA song showed up in a movie!   >:(
