Which movie did you watch lastֻ

Yup, me too.

At this point I’ll watch just about anything with Emily Blunt in it. I have a friend who hates Tom Cruise, and she kinda liked it too.
(I pointed out to her that he dies a lot…that helped :smiley: MAGGOT!)

I saw The Gentlemen (2019).

This movie is excellent.

It's mostly drama, but there are some action sequences.

The acting is top notch.

The music is great.

It's directed by Guy Ritchie.

Every movie that I've seen directed by Guy Ritchie have been excellent.

Those movies are Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, Sherlock Holmes, and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.

Guy Ritchie is one of my favorite directors.

Tom Cruise is a crazy nut for sure, but the acting was really good. Overall, I liked the movie.

Last night I watched “The Big Short” (good movie if you like Wall Street) and re-watched “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping”.

Also re-watched “7 Days In Hell” which is hilarious and basically a long SNL Digital Short.

+1.
How did you like RocknRolla

I haven't seen that one, but it looks good.

PIG (2021) - Nicolas Cage is Robin, a truffle-hunting hermit living alone in a ramshackle cabin in an Oregon forest, when one night his cabin door is kicked down, and his beloved truffle-hunting pig is kidnapped by unknown thugs. Robin enlists the help of his regular truffle buyer to go back to Portland, where the buyer lives and where Robin has a past, to get his pig back from whomever took it. Cage’s performance as Robin is superbly controlled yet still complex and compelling, and during the course of this quietly-intense drama we gradually learn more about Robin’s past life, and the reasons he ended up living in the woods alone. We also see the young buyer, played very well by Alex Wolff, develop as a person through his adventure with Robin, as his outlook on his own life, and on his relationships with his father (Adam Arkin) and mother, changes significantly as well. The movie is a unique and interesting look at themes of love, loss, and what happens to idealism and creative passion when they are confronted with the reality of commerce and the quest for money.

I’ve been meaning to see this.

When a father turns 60, his large family gathers at a castle to celebrate him. Everybody likes and respects him deeply—or do they?
8.5/10

Wonderfully wicked film. :laughing:

8/10
Trailer: - YouTube

Full movie: Fucking Åmål 1998 - YouTube

Last night watched the new Bond Film. Was a solid movie.

Also watched Ghostbusters: After life. Good movie, well done, and just a fun movie to watch with good comedic and fitting send off to a friend. No complicated story lines and sometimes that makes a film better.

Ray Donovan “The Movie” I guess it was a way to end the series, It was OK I guess. I find once you watch these series (several seasons) till they run out. You kind of get out of the trance you’re in watching them. Then they come out with a new Season and it’s just not the same ( even the good ones lack something )

8/10, very good and entertaining movie.
Jackie Brown

Possibly Samuel L. Jackson’s most convincing role. Good movie. I’ve seen it at least three times since I blind-bought the blu-ray a couple years ago. (Blu-ray was $3 used!)

I like all of Quentin Tarantino's movies, and Jackie Brown is an excellent one!

(QT is another of my favorite directors.)

regarding Jackie Brown….current Bridget Fonda:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10446437/Bridget-Fonda-58-looks-UNRECOGNIZABLE-shy-movie-star-seen-time-12-years.html![](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/01/27/03/53420849-0-Comfort_In_another_dramatic_departure_from_her_once_ultra_glamor-a-145_1643254073599.jpg)

OMG… wow. Unrecognizable is right. Very sad, considering how she was once a pin-up quality woman. It just goes to show you that a totally unappealing and overweight woman who doesn’t care about her appearance could be hiding a bombshell of a woman inside… covered over… with slim chances of ever getting out.

Yeah, but I don’t see the purpose of those articles. Like what if she developed some glandular disorder or something?

I knew someone who was just the opposite. She wasn’t even “chubby”, let alone “fat”, but just had all the right curves in all the right places — shapely — then developed a thyroid condition, and ended up with the physique of a teenage boy.

Like the poor woman was just trying to live a quiet life and go shopping, and ends up in an article for all the gawkers to tsk-tsk like that. Makes me feel bad, but not in the intended way.

And last time I went food-shopping, all I had on was a teeshirt and fleece jammies, stepped into my sneakdals, threw on a fleece jacket, and didn’t even shower yet ’cause I figured I’d go out first and then wash all the omicrons offa me when I got back, so I must’ve looked all a treat.

I often wonder how all these people with video proof of their lives feel when they get older —- very few people age with the beauty they had at youth —- I know having kids wrecks havoc on a woman physically and mentally (especially with bad kids like I was :smiling_imp: )
