Winnie The Pooh: Blood and honey
The worst film I have seen for a very long time.
Yeah, that's what I said a few days ago...The worst film I have seen for a very long time.

According to some critics one of the worst films ever made. A shame as I thought the premise had potential.

The Boston Strangler with Keira Knightly, it's on one of the streaming services and IMDB says "Loretta McLaughlin was the reporter who first connected the murders and broke the story of the Boston Strangler. She and Jean Cole challenged the sexism of the early 1960s to report on the city's most notorious serial killer.".
Enjoyable, if a little slow paced film that we put on on a whim and glad we did. It's about the reporters covering the murders more than the murders themselves but I don't think it loses anything for that. Not sure I'd ever seek it out to watch again but an enjoyable 7/10.
I agree - well made detailed film thats paints a disturbing story around the quality of the investigations. It's available on Disney+ in the UK.

Watched the Luther film, never watched the series and though I like Idris Elba, I am sick of the sight of him, he pops up everywhere.
When he first came onto the scene it was like he went from nowhere to everywhere. Every paper, website, talk show etc etc. I got so pissed off that I refuse to watch anything he stars in, the only film I have seen with him in is Pacific Rim as I didn't realise he was in it. Cotty said:

He's the guy everyone screams should get every role on the planet, but is he actually any good?Meh.
The Whale
Story about a very fat immobile bloke. All set in his livingroom. Attempts to reconnect with his daughter.
I think it's supposed to be sad...but I struggle to feel sorry for fat people.
It was OK but nothing special.
7/10
The Banshees of Inisherin
About two friends, but one decides he doesn't want to be friends any more. Set in 1920's Ireland.
It's good, if a little weird. We couldn't really figure out what was up with the one who broke off the friendship.
7/10
Elvis
About Elvis Presley's life. It was alright, nothing special. Needed more of his music really.

At some point surely a director has to say "No I don't want him for the part his face is on every poster on the tube, in every magazine and on every channel - find me someone exciting for the part."
