"Caught up with You Were Never Really Here, with Joaquin Phoenix, first hour almost like a rehearsal of the Joker role with added violence. Stunning film in terms of early scenes and music (Jonny Greenwood) but last half hour the plot went into unexpected places. Saw Performance a couple of years ago, what a film. Surprised how good Jagger was."

Watched The Hunt last night thought it was really good! A level of satire I didn’t think the yanks could muster!

"Hardly 2020 but just watched Performance for the first time in about 30 years, forgotten how mental (and brilliant) that film is."

"Just Watched ""The Healer"" a nice Sunday afternoon is exactly what it is ! More brownie points although I did quite enjoyed it but don't tell anyone :-)"

Watched the invisible man last night... very enjoyable romp...think the missus woke the neighborhood up with her screams... 8/10

Once Were Warriors is a NZ film Hence all the Maoris beating the shit out of Mrs Maori

But what if the mocking is down to my own mental health issues which you’re now mocking?

"Btw, you can't mock posters mental health issues on here these days, have you not seen the sticky anxiety/depression thread? Tut tut. Naughty."

"Btw, you can't mock posters mental health issues on here these days, have you not seen the sticky anxiety/depression thread? Tut tut. Naughty."

I’ve never seen it but I thought that Once Were Warriors was a cinematic triumph.

"Awful, ugly film, don't watch. A lot more depressing than about a bloke in a clowns mask, but Pagey may disagree."

"""The Aus film Once were warriors is the same."" I've not seen Nil By Mouth, but I agree Once Were Warriors is a terrible film with no redeeming qualities."

Cheers freak.

"Well okay, but you seemed a bit angry just over a fictional film? Bit weird imo. So I'd say you were the one looking for attention, and even compared it to posters on a football forum? Haha..I know you are a 'last word' poster, so you crack on with your rebuttal, son."

Meltdown? Someone’s after a bit of attention again.

"Calm yourself down, Pagey, proper meltdown that was, and just over a film? I put off watching Joker as read (mainly on here) that it was really depressing, but when I did watch it I didn't think so at all really, enjoyed it, and there has been many films about mental health, Joker is hardly the only fucking one is it?? I've always thought the most depressing (fiction) film I've ever seen is Nil by Mouth, just a really ugly, grim film about a thug beating his wife up with no redeeming features whatsoever. The Aus film Once were warriors is the same."

The Gentlemen was entertaining if you don’t overthink it. I wasn’t expecting much but it was highly watchable. Especially over some of the proper poncy shit we’ve had over the last couple of years. I include Joker in that. If I wanted to spend a couple of hours watching some miserable prick have mental health issues I’d just log onto here.

Hmm. Somewhere in the south anyway. I expected him to be wearing dungarees and with a toothpick in his mouth.

"Jesus I can't believe some of you thought The Gentlemen was good. Watching Hugh Grant trying to do a gay cockney accent was like watching nails down a blackboard. Terrible script and every gangster cliche in the book. Had to turn it off after half an hour and will never watch a fucking Guy Ritchie film ever again, no matter if I am in lockdown forever. Seen better film on teeth."

"I thought Craig sounded exactly like Spacey in House of Cards, which I think is supposed to be a Carolina accent, not Texan."

Watched Knives Out last night. A really enjoyable whodunnit with Daniel Craig with the most ridiculous Texan drawl.

"ted - Yes it's a bit like a B movie, but thought it was a good easy to watch old fashioned cops vs the bad guys flick. 'The Good Liar' I really liked, superb acting from Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren."

"Watched Parasite and The Gentlemen recently. Parasite was okay but no way worthy of the Oscar. I preferred The Gentlemen which was enjoyable. Colin Farrell was really good in it. Just finally got around to watching Django Unchained. Thought it started off really well but I started losing interest towards the end, it was good but probably half hour too long,"

Watched 21 Bridges last night and was a bit disappointed as I'm sure was the NYPD !

A few people have suggested 21 Bridges Manuel will give it a go.
