Ad Astra-7/10

I would have given this movie less except I think it's possibly the best acting Brad Pitt has ever done.

The low score would be because, basically, the story has extremely weak subtext leaving the audience wondering what was the point of the story.

The film leans heavily on Chris Nolan's Interstellar and the Sandra Bullock film Gravity and both of those films lean heavily on Tarkovsky's original Solaris.

Not a bad film but not a great story; in my opinion.

Joker - 10/10

Joker - 10/10

I really dislike perfect scores, because I am of the opinion that a work of art can't be perfect, having said that 10/10 sounds about right .
The movie recieved bad press from the PC-LGBTI-AOC-NewYorkTimes crowd, the guys who keep pretending that movies like Cpt. Marvel, Ghostbusters all cunts edition, Black Panther, I am missing probably alot of other stinkers, are great because of diversity. They tried ruining our nerd culture to further their agenda and they were so afraid of this movie that I was almost shocked to see that this movie was this great.
Great cast, great soundtrack, great camerawork, Phoenix' performance oscarworthy(if they have the balls).

Spoiler

and the cherry on top, it's been ages since I read batman comics but I think the ending is akin to A killing joke, where we get Jokers origin story as told by the Joker which might or might not be true. I felt the last scene implied that the movie we saw was a retelling in front of a shrink so that the movie itself shouldn't be taken as canon but possibly just drivel spilled forth by a madmen.

Joker - 10/10

Hell yes.

Joker-10/10

Joker was absolutely brilliant.

I found it to be one of those films that is so engrossing that, when you leave the cinema, you feel like you have walked into a parallel universe.

This flick reminded me of Taxi Driver (and not because De Niro co-stars); the breakdown of society (in Taxi Driver it was moral codes) as it plays off against an individual's breakdown.

The music was ominous and really helped the emotional vibe. The story was ominous because it's the Joker and we already know how the story ends.

I'm not a Phoenix fan but I thought the guy went above and beyond in this role.

Yes; brilliant film-making.

OK, so I'll have to see Joker soon. I know someone else that said is was awesome also.

Event Horizon-8/10

Just because it's one of the scariest horror movies I've ever seen and I usually watch it every Halloween. Sure it's a little campy and maybe predictable, but it's still good.

Terminator: Dark Fate 9/10

Mortal Engines - 5/10

Only watched bits of this over the last few evenings and whilst I loved the idea of it all. It just wasn't well cast or directed.

Now to see if the wife ends up getting the books

Ford vs. Ferrari-10/10

As a fan of motorsport I can't help but give this a 10. It was compelling and engrossing and a great tribute to that particular piece of motorsport history.

glad to hear that can't wait to see Ford vs. Ferrari

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life-4/10

Unlike Lara Croft this film is very flat.

Toy Story 4 - 8/10

I sometimes feel like they've butched this thing to a pulp yet every time I watch a new one the story telling gets me right in the feels!

Cirque du Soleil Presents: Allegria-3/10

There are two versions of Allegria on DVD. The original circus show DVD which is just that; the show from beginning to end. And there's this version which is a feature film narrative based on the theme of that show.

I prefer the original Allegria. When I watch circus I prefer to see these talented performers do their whole bit. This feature film version cuts up the performances and you don't get a full bits from any act.

Also the original Allegria circus show was quite clown-heavy and this feature film is much the same; a lot of clowns.

The show must go on....

Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker 6/10

This film has basically been 42 years in the making. I suppose it's an ending although now that Disney has gotten Star Wars the franchise will go on forever.

In my opinion JJ Abrams is not a great director and has never had one original idea.

Rey's character was over-acted in places and, despite not really liking Kylo Ren's character in episodes VII and VII, I think he carried this film.The character played by Dominic Monaghan was totally worthless to the plot and superfluous.

Some bit were predictable and then there were some less predictable twists. At least Abrams didn't do what he usually does which is use too much lens flare which becomes distracting and annoying after he while.

May the something something be with something something....

Sleepy Hollow-6/10

It kept me interested.......

 

[Manticore]

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)-6/10

Don't expect another Joker. It's a Suicide Squad spin-off and acts like one.

I thought all the actors carried their parts well. It's a comic book.....
