Which movie did you watch lastֻ

I watched bob the streetcat. a movie about a streetcat accompanying a former drug addict recuperating. Really nice show about how cats can bring luck and positive change in a human being. And hacksaw ridge was AWESOME!

I watched Snowden tonight.

T2: Trainspotting weekend just gone. Late night show but cinema was empty, 300 seats and about 20 people :frowning:

I enjoyed the film, the original was an iconic film for my generation and this one didn’t ruin it, good but not iconic like the original.

The Handmaid
Long
Japanese/Korean
Hot
Lots of Lipstick

no flashlight content

anachronism though, one wristwatch, seiko ladie’s solar seiko - but this is set in like 1925

The Girl with all the Gifts.

Interesting take on Zombies.

Worth a watch.

SP

Eloise (2017)
A fairly run of the mill ghost flick set in an abandoned insane asylum.

Split. Worth the money .

Watched Contact on Netflix last night. Great movie. Must have seen it ten times since it came out almost 20 years ago.

Had nothing to do, ended up watching Zootopia. Surprisingly mature-minded for a Disney movie, moreso the Portuguese dub, heh.

That was almost 2 months ago, just so you can see how much of a “cinema buff” I am :stuck_out_tongue:

I just saw Dead Calm (1989).

Most of the movie is slow and very frustrating.

I would not recommend it.

That’s the good kind of necro.

Haha!

I was going to post in the "Favorite movies of all time ?" thread, but I didn't care for the film.

Fair point, fair point :wink:

Just watched “Kite” (“A Kaito”) last night.

Dunno if it qualifies as a “movie”, as it’s actually a car2n (“mangia”, which I think is Italian for “eat! eat!”). Rather graphic, but fun.

Originally got a butchered version that didn’t match the subs at all, so went a-looking online and found other versions that were dubbed instead of subbed. Eh, whatever works…

The day before was “Den Skyldige” (“The Guilty”) which I mentioned in the other thread. Great flick… ain’t gonna spoil it. If you liked “Locke”, you’ll love this one.

Losing a lotta OTA channels lately, can’t watch my stories, so am finally getting the chance to hit the movie-bin…

Just watched “Inside Man” before going to work on the afternoon shift.

Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster. From 2006.

:+1: :+1:

Nice, family cinema. History of loving father ready to sacrifice anything to support family.
Mike

…and they all stay together, right up to the very end. :laughing:

It’s actually a pretty good flick.

Vukmir Vukmir’s a hoot!

Decades ago I used to love foreign films.

Now I watch movies that are mostly or completely in English.

I usually watch them at home, with subtitles on, so I can read and listen along.

Maybe I should watch more foreign films...

Depends on the movie. One that’s heavy in rapidfire dialogue wouldn’t do well with subtitles unless you’re a speedreader.

Those that are fairly sparse (eg, “Big Bad Wolves”) are perfectly doable. BBW in fact was so dialogue-sparse that you could just glance at the subs and go back to watching facial expressions and the like.

Most of the spaghetti westerns were all in Italian except for the anglos’ parts (Eastwood, Van Cleef, etc.), and most people hardly even notice.

Dubs can be pretty good or laughably bad, depending.

I just see what’s coming down the pipe and decide whether/not I’d be interested, sometimes based on imdb reviews.

Lotta times, though, “reviews” are a mix of 1s and 10s. Usually 10s from the friends’n’families of those who were involved in the movie, and 1s from those who just want people to read their intentionally negative tirades. Sometimes they’re actually helpful, though.

Anyway…
