Yeah I felt the same. We watched it Friday night. I’d give it a 5/10 for those reasons and its predictability.

Hatching (2022).



It was recommeded by a friend. It was okay. Rather silly in parts and a bit amateurish, acting wise and script wise. But I sat through it.

A Finnish film, with English subtitles.

5.8/10

[Ammi]

…..Wolfs……a comedy thriller that didn’t really offer any thrilling bits or hit those smiles because it was all a bit too predictable and offered nothing new and just really chugged along ….Austin Abrams though was very endearing in his character, he’s not someone that I was that familiar with so it was an introduction to him……5/10…

[Ammi]

…Night Raiders……was actually a very good watch, it was one that I knew nothing about or knew any of the actors but it was quite a little gem find…7/10…

[Gusto Brunt]

Vanillia Sky - 2001. Starring Tom Cruise.

This movie is very underrated. Seen it many times, including last night.

8/10

[Ammi]

…I don’t think that I’ve watched it more than once, I should give it a rewatch some time, thanks for the reminder, Gusto…

[Ray.]

Dracula (1979), with Frank Langella as the Count.

One of my favourite versions of the character.

[Nicky91]

Kinds of Kindness (2024)

such a weird yet enjoyable film, a real Yorgos Lanthimos signature type same as Poor Things but different

Spoiler:

Willem Dafoe & Emma Stone love scene

Spoiler:

Jesse Plemons a deserved best actor award win for this also, 3 slay characters by him

yes enjoyed it same amount as poor things


9.5

[Ammi]

…Made in a Belfast……a very lovely chilly Sunday afternoon movie and making me feel like I’d like to start Christmas movie afternoons, early….nit that it was a Christmas movie but it had that same warmth…6.5/10…

People often knock Tom's acting, saying he's all action but no substance to his acting.

But in Vanilla Sky I think his performance is awesome. Particularly the 'mask' scene.

…I liked him in The Firm and Jerry Maguire and A Few Good Men and Rain Man as well…when I think about it, I probably like him best in non action roles because it doesn’t really look very ‘action’ to me……

Oh and @Ammi I have checked out The Autopsy Of Jane Doe today, not long after I woke up.

I liked the Film for the most part, I do think that the ending could've been better, but overall I would score the Film between a 7.5-8/10.

I did enjoy the Film, it had good tension without over-egging it, but weren't too scarce either.

One Life

There are a lot of movies on this subject. but still decided to watch this one. in general, a good even movie, no flaws found. boring was not. my wife cried.
but I haven't seen anything better than Schindler's List yet.
8/10

[Livia]

…yeah that’s what I liked about it, that it was all tension and creepiness and very claustrophobic…I also thought that Jane Doe’s story was very sad…so lots of layers to the storyline…Im so glad that you liked it, Mock…

Then that's ridiculous.

Whilst none of them are really my type going off of that particular picture that you showed, I wouldn't exactly call them ugly either.

Spoiler:

I always find the witch trials period of history to be sad, so many innocent women killed over a mad conspiracy theory.

Spoiler:

…yeah, I agree…the nod to Salem was very, very sad…and not only that those young girls were killed but the method of Jane Doe dying as well…the torture that she endured in her death by those who felt that they were ‘killing evil’ while their actions in themselves were incredibly evil and monstrous…

Spoiler:

Yeah but you've gotta figure in how many actual witches they killed during that time, too. So it's not all black and white.

Spoiler:

Oh Jane Doe definitely got a death that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It's fascinating to see how some people can do monstrous things, and not even register in their head that what they might be doing is evil, the witch trials is a prime example of that imo.
