Bitch Slap

Bitch Slap This was the film I nominated for the film club's B-movie month. It wasn't the one selected but having found there was a free version available on a popular video sharing site I could not resist watching it. B-movies aren't my thing so I had no idea what this was going to be like when I picked it. I won't attempt a Lime-esque proper review, but I would say it's worth watching for free. It's not that violent. There is almost no nudity in it. So don't watch it if that is what you want from this sort of film - reading some of the reviews on IMDB it seems many people did expect those things. It's about three sexy, violent women who are af…

Barry Lyndon

The BBC had a few Stanley Kubrick films on recently that I recorded. This is one I had never seen before. I had no idea what to expect, didn't even know the basic story till just before watching it. Although the story itself is not that gripping, it's very slow paced (deliberately) and title character not that likeable at times, I was very impressed. I see the Threadstarter here classes it as "Drama, Romance, War". There is not much romance in it. Drama yes. There's a couple of battle scenes but most of it is not a war film. I wouldn't call it comedy but it's not that serious and has comical scenes. It's based on a novel by William Makepeace Thackery, more famous for Vani…

The next chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Well, it's actually the end of Phase 3 and the closing opus of the Infinity Saga that spans a whole 23 films (I think). The movie should deal with the aftermath of Avengers: Endgame. Rumors says it's gonna be a game changer for the MCU looking forward and if the trailer is any indication, it looks like it could be true !

Alien or Aliens (films)?
by djw180- 1 follower

Alien or Aliens? Fans of the Alien series apparently split in two depending on which film you think is clearly the best, either Alien or Aliens. I first became aware of the divide when I was going to see Alien3. Someone said to me “Don't bother seeing it. It's shit like the first one”, so as I prefered the first I did go to see it. I was a bit surprised though that someone who liked Aliens could so dislike Alien. So I thought why don't we have a poll? Alien or Aliens – which do you think is the better film? Now, why do I prefer Alien? I have just watched both again, director's cut versions of each. I thought about this a while and came up with …

I listen to all sorts of things, hard rock, classic rock, old country, symphony and a small bit of pop and hip hop Metallica is my all time favorite followed by AC/DC. Although Rosanne Cash, Marie Osmand and Lady Gaga have the best voices of anyone IMO.

Roma (2018) Best Picture Nominee The Awesome: A Black & White film with its cinematography in full splendid color. I cannot put into words how beautiful this film is shot and framed, where do I begin, I usually don't prefer Black & White films, not when I have these rods and cones in my eyes enabling me to see color. But here, B&W is a blessing because there are some scenes where so much going on inside the frame that had the same majestic wide shots been colorized, it could have turned into one big busy jumble of colors and instead get this amazing B&W which enhances every movement in the frame, from the dog scratching itself in the distanc…

A Star Is Born (2018) Best Picture Nominee The Awesome: Getting to see the real Stefani Germanotta a.k.a. Lady Gaga out of make-up and crazy costumes and although she has abandoned the crazy shtick for a while, it was still nice to see her not wearing cardboard. The chemistry between the leads is good although I did chuckle A LOT at moments when Jackson Maine (Bradley Cooper) is giving singing advice to Ally (Lady GaGa) because in real life I knew it was just the opposite while they were making the film. I really believed their love, especially early on where it isn't always lovey-dovey, like real-life and kept me from saying, "Come on, big time singer gon…

If you guys haven't yet seen this innovative YouTube show, you are missing out. Their most recent episode with Ken Jeong is hilarious to say the least. They have 8 seasons so far so they might have someone you might like. If you have seen the show before, which episode was your favorite? Mine has to be this season's premiere with Gordon Ramsay.

Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) Best Picture Nominee The Awesome: @LimeGreenLegend already posted a great review on Page 16 and I don't know that I have anything better to add: The Good: Anyone that is a fan of Queen will review this film with some bias but I never bought Queen music but have appreciated listening to their hits all my life for example, the song "Eye of the Tiger" and "Rocky" films, chanting "We Will Rock You" at every sporting event I have ever attended, singing "We Are The Champions" when FSU won the National Championship, etc. I have been a fan of Queen by default. I enjoyed the film because the Freddie Mercury (Malik Remi) is so c…

The Favourite (2018) Best Picture Nominee The Awesome: Unexpectedly funny. Such a cracking script that does what it's supposed to do, move the story forward or reveal characters below the surface. The three protagonists all deliver exploding acting performances worthy of their Oscar nominations. Abigail (Emma Stone), Sara (Rachel Weisz) and Queen Anne (Olivia Colman) are so magnetizing and just deliver their lines with such gusto and conviction, thanks to stellar dialogue, even when its profane it just packed a fun punch that I didn't expect in a film like this. Emma, Rachel, and Olivia were great, no denying that they enrich the film so much but I also ha…

Watche this earlier, it's an awesome Netflix movie. A story of survival when the world goes to shit. I've seen Forest Whitaker in alot of movies and this is his best performance so far. I can't do reviews like @Con but this is worth the watch, 4/5 from me.

205Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Babylon (2022) dir Damien Chazelle This is a lavish, epic story (3hr + run time) with a great ensemble cast set in late 20s - early 30s Holywood. Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie get top billing as silent movie mega-star Jack Conrad and new comer Nellie LaRoy respectively. But the star is really Diego Calva as Manny Torres, a Mexican immigrant who just wants to work in the film industry in any type of job can get for a production company, and turns out to have a real feel for what people want to see. The supporting characters also include Jovan Adepo as Jazz trumpeter Sydney Palmer, Li Jin Li as cabaret artist and screenwriter “Lady” Fay Zhu and Jean Smart as movie journalist Elinor St John. There is also cameo late on from Toby Maguire as a very sinister LA gangster who thinks he has some great ideas for new films. It has some great, big. colourful scenes set to music, such as where it starts at a lavish party being thrown by Manny's studio executive boss, complete with drugs, booze, strippers and a performing elephant. It charts the change from silent films to talkies and beyond, showing how some thrive on this whilst for others it ends their careers. It also shows how certain attitudes were at that time, in particular with respect to Sydney, who plays in a black-only Jazz band, because mixed race performances and films were not allowed. It has similarities to a number of other films set at a similar time; Cabaret, The Cotton Club, The Artist, and even Cinema Paradiso in a way. The acting is good all round but Calva and Robbie stand out. Some of the sets and cinematography are stunning. It's maybe a little too long and maybe tries to include too many characters, some of which just disappear from the story later on. But it is still a very good film. 9 / 10- 2

David Lynch, my favourite filmmaker of all time, died yesterday aged 78. Not only did he make some of the best films I've ever seen - Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive - but was also, by all accounts, a wonderful person who was just as strange as his films. I think this video sums him up perfectly and, if you've never seen any of his work, will make you want to check them out (I'd start with The Elephant Man).- 2
