"Think its worth seeing Oppenheimer at the IMAX if you can - we saw it at a smaller cinema and that may be why we all thought it was a bit underwhelming overall, especially the third hour."

"Booked to see Oppenheimer at the Imax. Almost every single showing sold out, barring a couple of seats here and there. even at the 8.15 am showings. Nuts. Hopefully it's worth it."

Am waiting for Oppenheimer to come out on Blu-Ray or DVD

"nerd I'm pretty sure Amazon is a major studio these days, mate. I would characterise IMDB as 'less bad than RT' - it's still stuffed to the gills with shills and corporate bias."

"I thought IMDB was owned by Amazon there ratings are pretty good to be fair , Rotten tomatoes is a nonsense ."

"Manuel Rotten is rotten, my friend. So is IMDB. They are owned by the studios, manipulate figures for the studios and occasionally outright lie for the studios. They are also very political. The critics, mostly wokies in the first place, are often bought and paid for with goody bags and free invitations to pre-screenings and conventions, and the highlighted 'verified' audience reviews are basically written by employees of the studios. Metacritic is a bit less corrupt."

"CS - Yep, agree. I found it pretty riveting. I enjoyed Jack Lowden in Gold and Slow Horses so had a nosey on him and found the film, I think it got 93% score on Rotten."

"Watched Calibre in lockdown, thought it was a good film, didn't come out to much fanfare that it probably deserved."

I absolutely loved Oppenheimer. I didn't find it dull at all.

"Good recommendation, Manuel. Goes to show that you don't have to throw tens of millions to make a decent film."

Not a bad watch that Manuel. Watched it when it came out.

"Watched a cracking film on Netflix called Calibre (2018) with Jack Lowden, a real tense thriller set in the Scottish Highlands. Reminded me of Shallow Grave."

"Oppenheimer - as cinema, pretty dull, surprisingly. I’m sure the enormous book it’s based on is well-researched and detailed and the adaptation faithful and all that, but as a film, I don’t think it will be in my top 10 of 2023."

"Also, the Blackberry movie is well worth a watch. Both Glenn Howerton and Jay Baruchel are great in it."

"Watched Eagle Eye on prime. It's a 2008 film with Shia Labeouf, but it seems more like a black mirror episode due to it's AI storyline. Surprisingly decent now, as I'd have put it down as a typical ridiculous action movie at the time."

"Just watched Babylon,the dury’s out. Fantastic scenes that are up there with Scorsese in parts but absolutely fucking bonkers. Overlong(over three hours)worth it just about."

Maneul I thought it was slightly less gimmicky than previous MI movies. A lot of hand to hand stuff. The fight scenes in Venice in particular were good.

"I've seen it and enjoyed it overall, but it's long. Some good characters in it but thought the never ending stunts and dramatic escapes started to become a little tedious and just for the sake of it, but it's OK if you're a 12 year old watching it. Yea, she is a bit of a weapon, doubt the oddball Cruise would have been interested though."

Watched MI Dead Reconing last night. Thought it was excellent. Probably the best I seen in the series. And only Part 1. Hayley Atwell is a very attractive isn't she?

Guardians of the Galaxy 3... great end to the series... oh and Rocket was a raccoon after all ...

"Christopher Nolans latest, Oppenheimer, released next week. A fantastic director, this one could be his best effort yet."

zico 9:58 Sun Jun 25 Ditto. Almost my favourite Cage movie.

"Watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent with Nick Cage and really enjoyed it., Credit to Cage for taking the piss out of himself and Pedro Pascal chewed up the scenery brilliantly, a lot of fun."

"Extraction 2 is a superb action movie. Remote on, brain off, volume up. Cracking ride."
