The Harry Hill Movie. ...ridiculous and entertaining. ..not even going to rate it.. I laughed out loud with my 7 year old tonight. .which was great! He he. .!
'Flypaper'.
Fairly stupid comedy film about two separate gangs who try to rob a bank at the same time. Things start to go painfully wrong and it turns into an Agatha Christie 'whodunnit'. Its a strange B movie that tries to be Coen-esque, but you just end up feeling embarrassed for the actors.
Ashley Judd looks good in that suit though.

The Nice Guys - reminded me a lot of of Shane Blacks earlier Last Boy Scout with a 70s setting. Some of the comedy was a bit laboured and the plot was needlessly consulted but its a fun couple of hours. Russell Crowd keeps his coat on a lot in an attempt to hide the fact his Gladiator physique is long gone. 7-10
Police Academy 1984 .. 7/10 the origional and best one ,still gives me a laugh after all this time !
Parting Shots ...Hilarious 8/10 ! loved Joanna Lumleys hippy character !

The Lady in The Van 8/10
I'm a fan of Alan Bennett and Maggie Smith so I enjoyed it immensely. Maggie Smith was superb!

I watched 2 yesterday.
Puncture (also known as Injustice) - the true story of Mike Weiss, a drug addict lawyer who took on the suppliers of needles to the US hospitals after a nurse contracted AIDS after being stuck by a needle. I quite enjoyed it and I think it's worth checking out if you've got 90 minutes to spare.
Snowpiercer - Set in a future where a failed climate-change experiment kills all life on the planet except for a lucky few who boarded the Snowpiercer, a train that travels around the globe, where a class system emerges. The story of a rebellion as the lower-classes in the tail of the train try to take over it. A nice twist at the end too.

Cinerama feature shown on TV in letterbox format with some distortion. Ambitious but the spectacle clearly lost on TV.

Yeah, it doesn't work at all. It's not often I watch a film that seems to me to have no redeeming features whatsoever, but this new Dad's Army film definitely belongs in that category. It's just absolutely pathetic.
Anyway, I re-watched Dunkirk (1958). That's a good film. I'll give it 8/10. It'll be interesting to see how the new Dunkirk film compares with it.
The Last Heist (2016)
Cheesy DTV movie featuring a group of robbers focusing their talents on a soon to be closing safe deposit company, with the robbery turning into a hostage situation.
The twist, one of the hostages is Henry Rollins, a serial killer who cuts out the eyes of his victims!
Utter rubbish, but a fun 80 minutes or so.

Independance Day 1996 ...9/10 !......watching this now and still as good as ever ..mind without Will Smith I don't think the new sequels will equal this one IMO !
