'Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle' | 2017
I watched the original Jumanji for the first time today. What a great film it was IMO; a lot of fun and a decent kids' storyline too. I don't think this 'sequel' looks like it'll share much in common with the 1995 film, but I'm looking forward to it regardless. :)

Baby Driver
I liked this film. :)

'Gifted' | 2017
I loved it. Some funny moments from early on in the film, including one of my personal favourite parts which was the revealing of the 'special' breakfast. :lol:
-
Hampstead
I really enjoyed Hampstead. It was heart warming and I felt a strong sense of pathos throughout, Helped by the fact that the characters were all very believable and well-acted IMO. Anyone else interested? ^_^
-
Churchill (2017)
I saw this today and I wouldn't recommend it. Historically inaccurate and Winston isn't very realistic IMO. He comes across much older than 70 and very weak. He basically just shouts a lot. The storyline is just dull. 5/10 IMO.

'Gifted' | 2017
I'm very interested to see this one sometime soon. Sounds really good.

The Red Turtle
Thanks for adding the trailer, Josh. :) I didn't bother going in the end though; the lack of any speaking in the film was what put me off. I don't think my poor attention span would've stuck with it for long enough!
-
Wonder Woman
I saw it yesterday and it wasn't really my cup of tea. I found it dragged on too long for my liking tbh.
-
The Red Turtle
Anyone interested in this one? Thinking of going to see it tomorrow, but it's not being shown at many of my local cinemas. I tried to post a link, but it says I'm too new on here to post one! But just google it if want more details! ;) EDIT: Sw7BggqBpTk

Baywatch
I saw it today. It raised a couple of laughs from me, but it was a bit too silly at times tbh and needed more of a gritty plot. I suppose it was alright for a rainy bank holiday afternoon, but not one I'd really recommend.

Moana
Thank you for your kind comment. I look forward to joining in many more discussions about movies. B-)

Sausage Party
I know I'm a bit late to the (sausage) party with my reply, but I only saw this film for the first time this afternoon. I found it quite amusing in a childish kinda way that I used to appreciate South Park when I was a young teenager. The ending was just bonkers though (literally!). :wacko:

CBBC or CITV
CITV FTW back in the 1990s. B-)
-
Snatched
This is getting mostly awful reviews what what I've seen so far, but I'm still planning to check it out for myself some time next week. I expect it's not as bad as they say tbh, just like 'Table 19' which I really enjoyed despite the reviews telling me it was a waste of 90 minutes.

Going In Style
I'd been looking forward to this one since I first saw a trailer for it a few months back. Thankfully, I wasn't disappointed. I really liked the portrayal of the three main characters and my favourite part was the little girl who wouldn't reveal Freeman's identity to the authorities. Certainly a thought-provoking film and a reminder about who the real criminals are in this world IMO. <_<

The Zookeeper's Wife
I really enjoyed Zookeeper's Wife; the acting was good and it made me more aware of the horrors of those WW2 Nazi camps.

'Get Out' | March 2017
It wasn't what I expected and I didn't enjoy it very much. I was hoping for more of a 'laugh out loud' comedy based on a 'white girl brings black b/f home to meet middle-class parents' scenario, but I suppose that's probably been done too many times already.
-
Kong: Skull Island
I didn't think it was that amazing tbh. It seemed to go on forever and the final battle was a bit underwhelming.
-
A Dog's Purpose
I thought it was alright, but the trailers had already told me too much about the story and its ending and so I found it a bit predictable. All things considered, it was one of those films which I'm glad I went and saw because I had nothing better to do on a rainy Sunday afternoon, but I doubt if I'll ever watch it again if it comes on TV. ;)
-
Baywatch
I never watched the TV programme, but I'm quite looking forward to this movie nevertheless. I reckon it'll be quite good fun. :funky:

Moana
Hello to all members of the forum. :) I saw Moana today at the cinema and I must say it was one of my favourite Disney films I've seen. I really liked the heroine character (Moana herself, of course), but the storyline was nicely written too. The highlight for me though was the beautiful soundtrack. :D
