Heartbreakers (2001) - A surprisingly cynical romantic comedy about a mother and daughter duo, played by Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt, trying to con Gene Hackman out of a fortune, and with a previous victim of their schemes, played by Ray Liotta, hot on their trail for revenge. I enjoyed it and it's certainly a funny movie, but was a bit disappointed at how a veteran actor like Gene Hackman wasn't used to his full potential, and was made to inhabit a role that was more of a comedic plot device than an actual character in his own right. Having said that, I did find myself surprisingly invested in the two romantic subplots between Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jason Lee, and Sigourney Weaver and Ray Liotta. Two very oddball pairings, but then isn't that also often true of real life.

Get Up Dead Man the third instalment of the Knives Out series. Star-studded cast, clever plot, really enjoyed it. 9/10

I just watched it last night.

I definitely prefer it to Glass Onion, but I still think that the first was the best as the suspects were better developed compared to the sequels imo.

Neither are as good as watching Charles Bronson act the hardman though.
…yeah I think for me that it was elevated a bit because it’s Bruce Willis and he’s always been such a watchable actor…I have a feeling that I had seen it before but other than the opening scenes, I couldn’t recall any of the detail…which is weird…

…Get Up Dead Man……I agree with @Merry Mockmas in that I think the first movie remains my favourite but it all came together well and Glenn Close was her fabulous self…..7/10…

…F1 the movie……that was ok, actually…I’m not a huge Brad Pitt fan but I did enjoy all of the track scenes and it did zip by its two point something hours quite nicely…8/10…

I personally liked it as a whodunnit, it’s not as good as Knives out, but enjoyable.
