Hercules 7/10.

The Rock looks like a beast in this - not a bad film.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fury - 8/10

Saving Private Ryan in a tank. Some unpleasant viewing but a very good film.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

A Most Wanted Man - 7/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw

One of the best movies I've seen this year. Thought provoking indeed.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Godzilla... well, half of it. Got bored and turned it off.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The World's End.
Pretty funny 8.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

You should have stuck with it. Great film.

Why did you get bored?

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Interstellar - 8/10.

Very enjoyable.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Gravity

Special effects wonderful, story average.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw

I can't really say, just couldn't get into it. Seeing Bryan Cranston in a dodgy wig didn't get things off to a very good start. Picky I know, but.....

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The second half of the film is a lot better. One of my favourite films this year.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Babadook 9/10
One of the better horror films of late, probably the best actually. Worth a watch, funded by kickstarter.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Forgot to post these after I watched them,

Ghostbusters 10/10 after 30 years its still perfection. I saw it at Cineworld for their anniversary showing.

Die Hard 2 8/10 still brilliant after every viewing.

The Divergent 6/10 not great but watchable. Very similar to Hunger Games and Maze Runner.

Lets Be Cops 7/10 a lot funnier than I thought it would be.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(2014) 2/10 god awful!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Interstellar - 9/10. 3 hours well spent :) IMAX is worth the extra ..

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Guardians of the Galaxy 9/10.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ca$h 9/10

The weekend foreign film offering on BBC4

Thoroughly entertaining.Almost the perfect heist movie.

The interview, don't know what Kim Jong-un as so miffed about, it's a good film, 8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Frozen. Don't judge me, I like to see what they can do with CGI.

7.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Interview, great movie. 8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pride. Very good... 8.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Lucy
had lots of promise and could have been a lot better if it was longer and more was put into it, Luc Besson could have done better as he has quite a few films of value under his belt.
7/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I really didn't enjoy Lucy so I give it 5/10 I was expecting something rather different

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Equalizer 2014 / Excellent 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Birdman - very good. Very weird.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes l am looking forward to seeing this one.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Extended Edition Blu-ray Discs)

10/10

So much better than The Hobbit Trilogy...

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Equalizer 7/10

A bit far-fetched but not too bad at all.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Sharknado 7/10

I found this very cheesy and very stupid...it was right up my street :D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Wild - starring Reece witherspoon 9/10

Great to see her in a more serious film and she plays the part really well

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The series was better TP.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Theory of Everything about Stephen Hawking. Brilliant film and Eddie Redmayne deffo deserves an Oscar for portraying Hawking do well.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Agreed.

The Judge, with Robert Downey Jr and Robert Duval.
Son goes back to small town for his mother's funeral only to end up defending his dying judge father in a murder trial.
Quite good and warming. 8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Interstellar.

Superb. 10/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Imitation Game 10/10. Cumberbatch perfect as Turing, plus a strong supporting cast.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fury

6/10 Beyond grim.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

What we do in the shadows.

Loved it. 8.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Theory of Everything - 9/10

Totally fantastic.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kingsman: The secret service - 9/10

Utterly impressive. Great cast, great action and humour. My only gripe was the silly dress sense and lisp that Sam Jackson had.

John Wick, high body count and one of reeve's better movies 7/10

Into The Wild, true story about a young man who travels the USA after leaving college, finds himself in Alaska on bus 142 in which he makes his home and dies 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ex Machina

9/10

Excellent directorial debut from Alex Garland.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Focus - New Will smith movie
9.5/10

---------- Post added at 16:20 ---------- Previous post was at 16:19 ----------

I've seen it just because i have an unlimited card so i try to watch everything and i was surprised that it was actually a good film if you forget about all the hype

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Theroy Of Everything. 10/10 IMO. An excellent portrayal and accurate account of Professor Stephen Hawking, his life and his achievements :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just seen Avengers:Age of Ultron 3D - 8/10.

Very enjoyable, fight scenes get a bit busy, but definitely worth seeing.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

l saw a trailer earlier and it does look quite tasty l have to admit.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Age of Ultron 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Avengers: Age of Ultron

AWESOME

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fast and furious 7:

5/10

Pros: Good action scenes. The Rock is used well. Can't really see the join where they substituted a stunt double after Paul Walker's death. Nathalie Emmanuelle looks good..

Cons: Pretty much everything else.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

It was actually Walker's brothers that were used for some scenes and the final scene in the car was a CG Paul.

I really liked the film although you can tell where they seemed to changed the story as it all gets too silly.

Avenger:Age Of Ultron 9/10 - Blooming brilliant.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Jupiter Ascending 6/10
Its watchable.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Oblivion on Netflix - 6/10.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Spooks: The Greater Good - 9/10

As a massive fan of the show I was gutted when it ended so I've been really looking forward to this. Game of Thrones' Kit Harrington plays the Tom/Adam/Lucas lead which surprised me and obviously Harry is back too. Only a small handful of previous characters show up but there's one VERY pleasing cameo, I won't spoil it but for fans of the show you will definitely smile when this individual shows up :)

If you've never seen Spooks you probably won't be as enthusiastic about the film, you'll probably still enjoy it though but some parts are a bit too quick to be understood for people who never got in to the show. It doesn't compare very well on a visual level with Bourne, 24 etc as there is only one explosion etc so it relies on the storyline and performance from the actors which works really well. Some very unexpected deaths and plot twists shake things up nicely.

Left open for a potential sequel which is good as I doubt the show will ever return. Disappointed they didn't use the theme at the end though! :D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I thought this would be the case for a fan of the show.
I went to see this not ever seeing the tv show before and i didn't think it stood up as a movie in it's own right.
The acting was top notch but it just watched like a long episode of the tv show which is great for fans of the show but not for anyone who hasn't seen it .

5.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Project Almanac - 6/10. Enjoyable enough and not boring but not the greatest time traveller out there by any means. But 50/50 on this found footage style of film. This views a lot like Chronicle did but a different story. Worth a watch if you've got nothing in mind in my opinion.

---------- Post added at 09:55 ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 ----------

I hope this got enough to warrant a sequel completely brilliant from start to finish, not as stupid as Johnny English and not as serious as Bond. The church scene is easily one of the most insane fight scenes I've seen in a movie in years, Colin Firth really nailed it.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Area 51. 1/10

Total crap. A horror based around Area 51 has potential but this was utterly obliterated by the found footage style, the complete lack of any horror and the sheer borefest this movie is. I was hoping this would show off a more realistic approach even though the outside world has no clue what to expect in there, what you're left with is truly dire. Shaky camera's and leaving you feeling that you've just watched a bootleg easily make this the worst and most pointless film of 2015.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

It did indeed :)

Well I don't think its 100% confirmed by Fox. But the write/creator and possible director are all talking about it.

Mad Max Fury Road 2/10 - really didn't like it at all. Aside from all the action scenes there wasn't much acting or story or anything really. Meh....

Tomorrowland 8/10 - Now this was a great Disney film and surprisingly it was a 12a which meant there was a good bit of violence and language. Great fun adventure.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Finally got around to watching Cinema Paradiso

9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I still prefer Guest House Paradiso. :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

That's in a class of its own. :D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Mad Max: Fury Road

8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

San Andreas 9/10

But add Alexandra Daddario 10/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Can't wait to see that, I'm going to enjoy pretty much anything The Rock is in these days.

Grown Ups 2 - 8/10. Typical Adam Sandler stuff so it stars his usual gang of friends. Haven't seen the first yet but this was good, it wasn't going to win an Oscar but a decent comedy, Chris Rock steals it for me.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

San Andreas - 9/10

Such a great fun disaster movie.

Home - 6/10

Funny in most parts but a bit silly. Also Has Rhianna as the main female lead(Although girl is meant to be 11) However over use of her own songs in the soundtrack!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Is he as good as Mel?.

---------- Post added at 08:21 ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 ----------

l like the disaster movies and it looks like this has delivered another corker in spades.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kajaki - 9/10

A proper war film (Afghanistan), without a known cast. Based on a true story too. About a group of soldiers stuck in a minefield basically. Very realistic, not an easy watch but should be seen.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Definitely not.

I really disliked the film and think people are just caught up in the hype.

Lots of action but little else for me. Will stick with the originals on Blu Ray.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes l loved the originals so its going to have to be something special to please me.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kingsman 9/10

Have to agree with Stephen, just an awesome and well made film. It was always going to be too "British" for the Americans but one of the best spy films ever, think James Bond with Expendables-esque action and a bit of humour thrown in plus some of the best fight scenes ever. I'd love a sequel as long as it wasn't Americanised as the Britishness is what makes it so good. I agree about Samuel L Jackson's lisp, I'm guessing they wanted to give him something to make him more annoying but he's a good enough actor to not need something pointless like that.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kingsman was a good watch, definitely an 8/10 from me.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Jurassic World - 8/10.

Fun film, with some tense moments....

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I loved Kingsman. It was so much better than I was expecting based on the first trailer.

Seeing Jurassic World later...

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Jurassic World 8/10

The sequel JP deserved. Great moments and nods to the original.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

This.

Loved it :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ted 2. 3/10

Pointless, no plot, too random and wasn't funny at all. A total disappointment.

Don't waste your time.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Well with your ultra critical review l doubt that it will sell for 50 pence in a charity shop.:D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I'll still go see it.

If I had listened to reviews or opinions I'd never have gone to see Terminator Genisys and I actually really enjoyed it.

TED made me laugh a lot and so did Million Ways to Die in the West and Family Guy.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I enjoyed Ted 1, but part 2 was just a mess. Just too many random scenes that didn't add to anything, and the plot is just too thin. The 1st one was memorable but part 2 is forgettable adding nothing to the original.

It's because of the randomness, not enough funny moments and no longer have that originality to me it just was drawn out so 3 out of 10 is about right.

I also enjoyed Million Ways to Die in the West and Family Guy, I love gross out humour films but this wasn't one of them.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Isn't the random scenes what family guy and to an extent American Dad is all about though?

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Loved both movies.

Terminator Genisys: 9/10
Kingsman: 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

jurassic world 5/10 what a huge let down.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ted 2 - 6/10

It was never going to be a classic, more an extended version of Family Guy. Some funny bits and I loved the Jurassic Park reference :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Jurassic World - 6/10

Child 44 - 8/10

True Story - 4/10

Soaked in Bleach - (A Documentary about the death of Kurt Cobaine) Pretty interesting stuff, an eye opener for sure.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Marvel's Ant-Man

Very good, *much* better than you'd expect :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Mr. Holmes, excellent. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3168230/

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Mission Impossible 5 - Rogue Nation 8/10.

Just watched at the newly opened IMAX at Leeds Kirkstall Vue - the Luxury seats are leather electric recliners, with a sliding tray to rest your wine/beer/snacks on (which they sell in the actual screen, not just at the main kiosk).

Sound and picture quality are amazing, and the film was very enjoyable as well.

This, and the Everyman in Leeds (which has waiter service to the seat) are my two favourite cinemas now.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Man From UNCLE - 8/10

I might have given it more had I not fallen asleep :D

Really good actually (my dropping off was due to being so tired), think of a 1960s James Bond film with the humour and slickness of Ocean's Eleven. Completely OTT and unrealistic but it was never meant to win an Oscar.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Chappie - Utterly brilliant! One of the most underrated films of the year. I didn't enjoy district 9 that much but found it watchable... This I found much better. The only downside is the massive advertisement for Die Antewoord or whatever they're called. They literally play themselves. 8/10

Left Behind - Netflix watch without checking ratings 0/10. What is the deal with Nic Cage taking anything he can get his hands on... The worst part about it is the fact this is a serious film and I'd consider birdemic to top this.

Terminator Genisys (Keeps autocorrecting) - 5/10. 1 point for Matt Smith but it's an awful 'reboot' I'd rather they'd continued from Salvation even if it wasn't the best because this is probably worse. Burying one of my favourite franchises.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

San Andreas 10/10 superb movie
Terminator Genisys 7/10 this is the reboot it needed.
End of the watch 7/10 gritty drama (netflix).

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Legend - 9/10.

What an awesome film. I loved the 1990 Krays film and was expecting something similar but I couldn't be more wrong. Tom Hardy absolutely nails both roles and you can tell within the first 5 minutes how good he'll be. At times you forget he plays both characters he's that good and transforms Ronnie in to such an unintentionally tragic funny person.

Best comment of the evening, as we left someone said "That was good, I wonder if they'll do a sequel..."

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

SPECTRE 10/10

Watched all the Daniel Craig bonds in preparation for this one and loved it. Other half was with me when we went to see this at the local IMAX as she has a connection to it in preparing the hyundia police cars shown in the last few scenes :D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

It follows 7/10 a good creepy horror.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Hitman: Agent 47 - 5/10, has it's moments but it's somehow worse than the first. A shame too because Rupert played the perfect 47.

MI:Rogue Nation - 8/10. They seem to get better as the series goes on.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Journey to the Prehistoric Planet - utter rubbish, I only bought it because it was made in the same year the recipient was born as a silly birthday present. Varies between colour and black and white, not because of artistic genius but because it was the film in the camera at the time.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Wars: The Despecialized Edition

10/10

So much better without Lucas' later tinkering.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Empire Strikes Back: The Despecialized Edition

Return of the Jedi: The Despecialized Edition

Both 10/10.



And then today:

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

10/10 :D

Star Wars is back!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Force Awakens - 10/10 as well, loved it :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Wars The Force Awakens 9/10 Absolutely loved it
