You weren't in the correct frame of mind as it's Christmas.te, one of the worst movies I'd had to endure this year.You didn't see it in the cinema.
You're probably too young to appreciate it.
It doesn't have to be perfect but just symbolise, give an idea and summon up many aspects of that day. Can you imagine what it must of been like given the circumstances, I think not.
Merry Christmas.
More port please.

Lets be honest now, I’m not much of a film buff, having the attention span of a Jack Russell in a room full of Jane Russell’s in heat, some of this grading business just baffles me.
The Foreigner: really enjoyed this, well put together, interesting that a Chinese backed production company chose this subject matter.
In Bruges: loved this, has everything l like in a film, good characters, great location and a good yarn. I love a good film from this side of the pond.
Sour Grapes: documentary about wine fraud, interesting take on the value of wine and what the long term implications of what happened are.
Big sick: thought this would be a good romantic film to watch with Mrs. DG3 Christmas day, slow and boring, kept wanting to give up, but the reviews said it was great, persevered wish l hadn’t.

Drive
Quite possibly the worst film I've watched this decade, and a criminal waste of a good cast. 0/10
fantastic movieQuite possibly the worst film I've watched this decade, and a criminal waste of a good cast. 0/10
Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion whatever they may be, but maybe when you don't like a movie that has 93% on RT and is Empire's best film of the year its not to your taste as opposed to be a poor movie?

RT has form for fiddling, though the user score of 79% seems quite good. Metacritic on the surface has a realistic score.Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion whatever they may be, but maybe when you don't like a movie that has 93% on RT and is Empire's best film of the year its not to your taste as opposed to be a poor movie?
I used to love Empire (have issues from 1990-200ish for sale if anyone ants 'em.
).I couldn't stand more than ten mins of Drive, but I'm willing to give it another shot if Empire rates it, film of the year is impressive considering Nightcrawler came out the same year.

its a mood movie with a certain style - certainly picks up with some action scenes (some brutal) but if you don't his character it may grate. I liked the style, the simplicity (its essentially a modern day western) and the soundtrack. Though RG often plays the insular mumbling hero it works hereI used to love Empire (have issues from 1990-200ish for sale if anyone ants 'em.

Lego Batman
I've not seen any of the other Lego films and this isn't normally my thing but I have to admit I really enjoyed it.
8.7/10
I've just watched the Lego Batman film and thought it was very good, I like the use of CGI lego, some of the music is well chosen too, definitely one for the kids with bits in their to keep adults happy.I've not seen any of the other Lego films and this isn't normally my thing but I have to admit I really enjoyed it.
8.7/10
I'll give it 9/10
