In brief - it turns the true life 1960’s Space race into a low key study of grief (imo) and speculation not fact.

Yep it was good but made Armstrong out to be a boring so and so. When you look up pics of him there plenty of him sharing a joke. The fact he never spoke much after the landing is probably why he was chosen, they didn't want someone who was going to go off the rails. 

 Did make you realise how brave they were to sit in those tin cans.

Here’s a very left field movie that I always watch when it appears on a tv channel 

The Quiet Man 1952 John Wayne 

a quaint movie set in innocent age lovely story of someone returning home and feeling out of place then a love story interrupted by one of the great fight scenes which was comical as no one got hurt ! 

Perhaps that taste of movie made me love Forest Gump similar innocence theme

  Alita, 

      Based on a Japanese comic,   made buy James Cameron who did Avatar,  it is CGI  and have to say well worth the watch  great movie ,                             hopefully they do another one

Free Solo: If not discussed already here, see this. On National Geographical channel, Ch 129 I think.

'Free Solo' is not a Star Wars movie. Or Man From UNCLE.

A Private War

Emotional, involving, distressing. Well worth watching.

Went to watch Fishermans Friends with my son last night. Easy watching, charming but also I think it captured what I would "think" hardened, proud, Cornish fisherman would be like.

Generally the casting was spot on.

Must be the last person to see 'Downfall' about Hitler's last days in the bunker.

Just WOW!

[Kimbers]

Oceans 8. About as good as the new Ghostbusters which was utter mind bending garbage of the worst kind 1/10. As a huge fan of the other Ocean movies it not only seems wrong to be cast as an Ocean's movie when the original cast aren't in it.

Did I mention Bollox?

[USAndretti42]

Bollox?  Haven't seen that advertised.  When are the showings?

Watched The Last Movie Star last night. Burt Reynolds film which I thoroughly enjoyed.

OMG!! OMG!! OMG!! 

 

[ramjet]

I would not know where I am up to in the Star Wars Saga/Epic/Story?

[Sparky]

I find your lack of knowledge disturbing.

[silverfrost]

I have to it looks great, but i am also a little lacking of where all the starwars timeline is now ?   It says the story is coming to an end in the clip, hopefully this means Disney will put more money into the Aliens film franchise that they have just purchased and get some of those films out quickly also  

[march]

Nope - A new Trilogy is planned after this one.

Despite my children being named Luke and Leah, neither I nor my wife have watched a Star Wars film, ever.

So you have turned to the Dark side young Padawan!

Who? What?

Re-watched The Godfather last night. Everything about that film is brilliant.

[Dan E]

Anyone watched The Looming Tower about the CIA and FBI on the run up to 911, based on fact, popped my head.

Rewatched Goodfellas, fantastic Film, but always though Ray Liotta made Henry Hill seem more likeable then he really was.
