Watched Go With Me (Blackway in the US) Anthony Hopkins and Julia Styles with Ray Liota, not a bad watch as it goes. 

Watched "Honest Thief" a Liam Neeson action flick couple of nights bacik on Netflix. Pretty decent to be fair, not as good as Taken but better than some of his others. 

Quite enjoyed Ballerina a spin off from the John Wick universe but then I adore Ana de Armas.

Worth Hunting Down.

Watched The Amateur on Sunday. I highly recomend it. Sort of in the Taken/Revenge genre but one of the better ones.

See How They Run; comedy Agatha Christie style whodunnit. Good cast , with Sam Rockwell, Saoirse Ronan, Adrien Brody and Ruth Wilson. 6 marks out of 10.

Watched Sinner yesterday, very Dusk till Dawn but worth a watch. 

Finally got round to watching Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.  Loved certainly 1&3, 2 was ok but didn't care too much for The Crystal Skull and I had avoided this last one due to reading that it had gone "woke" and that Phoebe Waller-Bridge was annoying.  Yes she was a tad annoying, but I must confess is wasn't as bad as many of the reviews suggested.  I'd say it was certainly better than the Crystal Skull.  Was actually quite impressed with the de-ageing of Ford on the whole, but what I found a let down, (as with many films these days) was the over use of poor CGI.  Back in the day car/bike chases and action scenes were performed by stunt men and choreographed on the whole well.  The CGI in this at times took me back to the days of the 40's, 50's and 60's when it was clear someone was sitting in a stationary car with film of a road in the background and it didn't look particulatly good.  Not a patch on the originals but worth a watch if you haven't seen it and got nothing better to do.  Does make you feel old though, can't believe I was 14 when the original came out!
