Is there any chance you can give a brief yay or nay when posting your movie lists? Would like your opinion to help me with my movie decisions in the future Sure. A very basic sliding scale of 1 (dumpster fire) to 10 (blindingly brilliant) do? Some context. I'm sure quite a few will score 7s from being competently made films. So anything below 7 has some issues and anything above 7 is pretty good. Cinema: Murder on the Orient Express (2017) 7 - The story is so well known the plot isn't a surprise at all (even to someone like me who's never read the original), but the acting is nice and it looks good. Goodbye Christopher Robin (2017) 7 - Interesting little tale (that is get bad reviews in local papers for not being kid-friendly (?! - go figure)) The Disaster Artist (2017) 8(9) - Amusing look at this awful film. Gets an 8 if you haven't seen The Room and a 9 if you have. Blu-ray: Killer Barbys (1996) 3 - Trashy Italian film that tries to be sort of horror parody but isn't funny enough to be a parody nor scary/gory enough to be a horror film. Society (1989) 6 - Has some interesting ideas and visuals, but very, very slow to begin with and ends before it can really do anything with its satire of the rich elite. DVD: Axe Giant (2012) 1 - Unredeemable naff trash of a film with poor effects, bad acting and a stupid plot. Wild Zero (1999) 2 - Only better than Axe Giant because of how bonkers it is. Streaming: Con Air (1997) 6 - Would get a 7 (but not an 8 like The Rock) if it weren't for whatever bad decision was masquerading at Nic Cage's accent in this film.

Through to early-December, new films for the first time: Con Air (1997) You'd never seen Con Air?! That's how people react every time they learn I haven't seen [insert film title here]. On the flip side, my all-over-the-place approach to films does mean I've been able to recommend obscure (or not quite-so-obscure) gems to people who weren't aware they even existed. Even holds true for more mainstream stuff: I introduced someone to Singin' in the Rain for the first time a couple of weeks ago when it screened at a local cinema. And with Con Air it just slipped in the cracks between all the others I did see from that period like: The Rock, Face/Off, Under Siege, Broken Arrow etc.

Through to late-December, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
Paddington 2 (2017) 8 - Just as good as the first. A happy romp. Coco (2017) 8 - Interesting and well told tale (even if the story is a tad generic) with some heart.
Blu-ray:
Prime Evil (1988) 5 - Competently, but not well, executed horror flick that is very tame.
DVD:
It's Alive (2009) 2 - Desperately stupid film. Sharknado 2: The Second One (2014) 3 - Saved only by it knowing how dumb it is.
Off the Back of a Lorry, No Questions Asked:
The Tale of the Voodoo Prostitute (2012) 1 - Would give this a 0 if my scale started there! The Gate (1987) 6 - Okay, if a little silly in places.

It is nice to have some rating on Films, keep them coming , but i wonder why you don´t like the Sci-fi genre? Ummm, out of the two posts with ratings only Wild Zero could be considered a sci-fi film and even then that is being generous with stretching the genre definition. Most of the low rating ones are horror films. And the reasons there is so many of them is that my friends and I have a "bad movie" night every couple of months and deliberately watch bad films, of which horror seems to be over represented.

Through to early-February, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
Star Wars - Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017) 6 - Huge chunks turn out to be the film treading water and I found my attention wandering more than once. Darkest Hour (2017) 8 - Well acted, interesting stuff (even if in real life Churchill wasn't a saint). Phantom Thread (2017) 7 - Interesting but ultimately I didn't actually like any of the main characters and so wasn't hugely invested. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) 7 - Entertaining film that generally gets everything right.
Blu-ray:
Despicable Me 3 (2017) 6 - No where near as good as the first two in the series. Scream of Fear (1961) 6 - A different kind of Hammer Horror film that doesn't quite manage to hold together. The Magnificent Seven Ride (1972) 6 - The fourth and final "Magnificent Seven" film from the original run. Really shows signs of running out of steam. Cobra (1986) 6 - Over the top nonsense from Stallone. Sicario (2015) 8 - Taught thriller with some nice performances. Holiday Inn (1942) 6 - If you can ignore the 'blackface' scene it is a mildly amusing musical film. Krampus (2015) 7 - Comedy/Horror that never quite gets the balance right, nor was it sure how it should end.

Through to Late-May, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
Black Panther (2018) 7 - Another competent Marvel Cinematic Universe film. Final battle was on the boring side. Loving Vincent (2018) 8 - Definitely worth the watch. The Party (2018) 7 - Weird and breezy tale, with one or two characters I din't like or thought weren't particularly well acted. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) 8 - Both funny and sad, often at the same time. Recommended. The Death of Stalin (2018) 7 - If you're happy with a very broad take on historical events with a satirical twist, then see this. Peter Rabbit (2018) 6 - Not really my cup of tea. Paris pieds nus ("Lost in Paris") (2016) 7 - Small, sweetly-silly French farce. Avengers: Infinity War (2018) 8 - Fairly amazed this wasn't a train wreck given what it had to juggle and accomplish. Do wonder if someone who hadn't see it all before would like it though. Isle of Dogs (2018) 8 - If you like Wes Anderson then watch. If you don't, steer clear. Solo (2018) 6 - Sparks of brilliance were far and few between.
Blu-ray:
Eskimo Nell (1975) 6 - A reminder of a time when the UK made films like the Confessions... series of films. Charade (1963) 7 - A reasonably engaging thriller of a film with a bit of a saw-that-coming 'twist' ending. Firewalker (1985) 3 - Fairly tedious. I had hoped for better from a Chuck Norris film. The Trip to Spain (2017) 7 - More introspection, silly voices, and withering satire from Brydon and Coogan. Conan the Barbarian (1982) 6 - Competent sword & sorcery flick, but no much beyond that. The Longest Day (1962) 8 - Well told, if somewhat leisurely paced. Zulu (1964) 7 - Interesting piece that thankfully spends ore time on the characters than the battle. Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) 6 - Not anywhere as fun as the first flick, seemingly doubling down on the absurdity of the previous films' ending rather than the character development of the first 2/3. American Made (2017) 7 - Fun film that turns up to 11 the antics of the US in the 70s & 80s. 沖霄樓 ("House of Traps") (1982) 6 - Stock kung fu flick that despite the various 'out there' nick names for various characters, manages to make then all a much of a muchness. (Please, no jokes about how they all look the same.)
DVD:
Troll 2 (1990) 3 - Like The Room, worth watching once for a reminder of how bad films can get and thus amusing viewing. Wouldn't recommend repeated watching unless you like harming yourself. Spiders (2013) 2 - Rubbish. Rubbish that has the cardinal sin of being boring too. Secrets (1996) 4 - Competent but ultimately pat and un-engaging.
Off the Back of a Lorry, No Questions Asked:
School Spirit (1985) 2 - All over the place nonsense of a film that is hard to sit through. しんぼる ("Symbol") (2007) 3 - You can 'appreciate' it for the symbolism (see the title for the broad hint there), but beyond there is not much to enjoy.

Through to end-of-June, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
The Bookshop (2018) 5 - Despite some good acting, this film meandered all over the place. Tea with the Dames (2018) 7 - Witty and humorous. Would have been even better with more talking from the 4 dames and less from the production crew. Beata Ignoranza ("Ignorance is Bliss") (2017) 7 - Amusing Italian film about the class of cultures and expectations from life. Worth the watch. Le Sens de la fête ("C'est la vie!") (2017) 7 - It takes a bit of time to get going, but this French film is at times laugh-out-loud funny. Incredibles 2 (2018) 8.5 - Worthy follow up to the classic original. Highly recommended.
Blu-ray:
City of the Living Dead (1980) 6 - A not terribly well assembled horror flick. The Funhouse (1981) 6 - A somewhat awkwardly paced tale with not a lot of tension. Scream (1996) 7 - Would have scored higher if the villains hadn't 'idiot ball'-ed themselves to death at the end. How to Train your Dragon 2 (2014) 7 - Above the normal fair from Dreamworks but not quite a Megamind.
DVD:
Smokey Bites the Dust (1981) 3 - Some okay car crashes are about the only standouts from this movie. Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies (2016) 6 - Standard zombie comedy-horror. Nothing to write home about.

It's been a while...
Through to start-of-December, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018) 7 - A light an fluffy palate cleanser after "Avenger: Infinity War". Mary Shelley (2017) 6 - Interesting but hard to like. Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) 8 - Great, if a shade not as good as "Rogue Nation". The Meg (2018) 6 - Cheesy fun. Did exactly what it said on the tin. Christopher Robin (2018) 7 - A passable, fun film with some nice moments. The House with a Clock in the Walls (2018) 6 - Okay-ish kids film. First Man (2018) 8 - Amazing film that does a deep dive into the world of Neil Armstrong in the time up to the moon landing. Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) 8 - Not accurate to what really happened? Who cares? This was a generally fun watch. And the music is good too. They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) 8 - Interesting doco on the First World War. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindlewald (2018) 6 - Mess of film with no through line and a lot of blink and you'll miss them characters we don't care about. Three Identical Strangers (2018) 8 - Extremely interesting doco about American triplets. Won't spoil the second half for you. Go see it now! Mortal Engines (2018) 6 - Haven't read the books. Some interesting visuals but the characters are paper thin even as the film tries hard to make us care about them.
Blu-ray:
Class of Nuke 'em High (1986) 6 - Solidly weird Troma outing. Conan the Destroyer (1984) 6 - About the same as the original. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) 8 - Nicely done retelling on the classic spy tale. Sunshine on Leith (2013) 7 - Upbeat and fun musical. The Delta Force (1986) 6 - Cheese-tastic Chuck Norris escapade. Motorcycle with mounted rocket launchers! Maniac Cop (1988) 7 - Interesting little flick. The Andromeda Strain (1971) 6 - Slow and earnest. Scarecrows (1988) 7 - Some nice ideas let down with some bad acting here and there. Anomalisa (2015) 7 - Hmmm. What can I say. Watch it without knowing what you are letting yourself in for! Blood on Satan's Claw (1971) 5 - Not very good horror flick. Frenzy (1972) 7 - Competent but otherwise pedestrian effort from Hitchcock. Dr. Mabuse der Spieler ("Dr. Mabuse, the Gambler") (1922) 6 - Long. Very long. Interesting look at German silent era storytelling. The Fly (1958) 7 - Fun wee movie if somewhat hampered by cardboard characters. The Howling (1981) 7 - Bonkers werewolf story but still watchable. Hellraiser (1987) 7 - Starts out interesting and end just as it was starting to get really psychologically twisted. Rock 'n' Roll High School (1979) 6 - The Ramones and a high school. Something about resisting the evil need Principal. Twas okay. To the Devil a Daughter (1976) 6 - An all-over-the-place effort from Hammer that isn't sure what kind of horror film it wants to be. Assassins (1995) 7 - Generally entertaining if by-the-numbers 90s action flick. Scream 2 (1997) 8 - The "Scream" franchise starts getting more meta. Watchable. Blow Out (1981) 7 - Political thriller with John Travolta. Good film with a downbeat ending. Capricorn One (1977) 7 - Could have been tighter in the telling, and a cheesy ending. Zombeavers (2014) 6 - Had some good laughs in it. Che? ("What?") (1972) 5 - Bonkers. Simply bonkers. Read any metaphor you like into it if it'll help you make sense of it all. Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971) 6 - Mummy film without a mummy. Poor pacing and editing make it a miss. Straight Outta Compton (2015) 8 - Extremely well told and interesting (if somewhat idealised) story about N.W.A.
DVD:
Prince of Darkness (1987) 4 - A John Carpenter misfire from the 80s. Doesn't have the build of tension a'la "The Thing" that it needs to be effective. Hunt of the Wild (2015) 1 - One or two amusing moments, otherwise this is pretty hard to sit through due to being bad.

Cheerleaders Beach Party (1978) 1 - Painfully boring rubbish.

It's been a while *again*...
Through to mid-March, new films for the first time:
Cinema:
The Children Act (2018) 6 - Un-engaging despite some good acting from Emma Thompson. At Eternity's Gate (2018) 6 - I started 2018 with one film about Van Gogh and I end with another. Okay, but not as good as "Loving Vincent". Ralph Breaks the Internet (2018) 8 - Good fun, but I wonder how well the internet stuff will date in the next 5-10 years. Mary Poppins Returns (2018) 6 - Too long and the tunes weren't as catchy as the original. The Favourite (2018) 8 - Fun film if you aren't bothered by historical accuracy. Vice (2018) 7 - If you go into this accepting you're going to be watching a comedy, this is hilarious. Especially the bit in the middle where Cheney retires! Green Book (2018) 8 - Pure Oscar bait (and it worked too) but still a nice wee film. Cold War (2018) 6 - Polish. Black and white. 4:3. Cold War era. Depressing film. Some nice stuff to look at but depressing. On the Basis of Sex (2018) 6.5 - By-the-numbers biopic. Leads were okay but you could write out the beats to this film in your sleep. Stan & Ollie (2018) 8 - Wonderful wee tribute with some nice actors on the parts of the leads and their ladies. Captain Marvel (2019) 7 - About as generic a Marvel film as you can get which fits the title nicely. Not the mess internet trolls would have you believe nor the second coming their opponents think it is either.
Blu-ray:
Lady Bird (2017) 8 - Affecting tale with many an amusing moment. Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970) 7 - Long-is and a bit fluffy about the edges. Shame about the effects. The Jazz Singer (1927) 5 - Err... beware, there is blackface about! Barton Fink (1991) 7 - Very *very* quirky tale from the Cohen brothers. John Goodman steals the show. Fear in the Night (1972) 5 - Stilted effort of a film. Ben-Hur (1959) 7 - Tries to out-epic all the epics. Despite the length the characters feel very 2D. Lincoln (2012) 7 - Slow and thoughtful. But it still thinks the rest of the world cares about US history or relies on it as a bedrock of modern democracy. Scream 3 (2000) 7 - The series is starting to get a bit shaggy but it still has some merit. Flesh Eating Mothers (1989) 5 - A poorly put together film, but worth a watch if you want to laugh at the incompetence. Jeunes fills impudiques ("Schoolgirl Hitchhikers") (1973) 1 - Rubbish. Lacking plot, interesting characters, or events. A Bridge Too Far (1977) 6 - A huge cast of famous names, but it just doesn't have an energy to it. It's like everyone is still in first gear. Battle Creek Brawl (1980) 5 - Jackie Chan tries to break into Hollywood, but isn't served well by this film that treats his skills like a performing monkey.
DVD:
Little Dead Rotting Hood (2015) 5 - Some campy rubbish moments, but not enough to make it a good film. Lake Dead (2007) 4 - Umm, pretty much rubbish.
TV:
Lion (2016) 7 - Not bad. Tries a little too hard to be tearjerker.

Wasn't sure whether to start a new thread but will instead 'do a Razaak' and go ahead with this. Anyone seen Avatar Way Of The Water? It's a bit like the first in that you will walk out after seeing the film with great memories of the visuals but the script is merely so-so. I thought it was better than Avatar with a richer atmosphere, although characterisation is poor as can be common with James Cameron films. It isn't the best film I've seen but I recommend seeing it as an experience. Saw Black Panther 2 (forget the actual title) a few months back and that is also a really good film, almost feel ashamed mentioning it below the more well-known Avatar films when Black Panther films have infinitely better writing.

I saw Nope last week. Very enjoyable.

I thought Avatar: The Way of Water had a flawed script and characters, but when watched in IMAX 3D, it was a jaw-droppingly impressive experience. It's far from a perfect film but I had a brilliant time watching it.
I also liked Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, though not as much as the first film. I found it a bit overlong with an overstuffed story, but liked the emotional tribute to Chadwick Boseman and the character of T'Challa.

I've just seen Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs film, and the sequel, and a couple of the episodes of the 52(!) episode long series. I haven't read the book it's based on but the book sounds very fantastic and surreal, so I don't mind they've taken heavy liberties with the book. I recommend both the films as creative, humorous and colourful, with good characterisation and being both feelgood and well-written, the sequel being not quite as good as the first but good as sequels go. The series I probably would have enjoyed more as a kid for its Scooby Doo style formula. Eccentric genius does something well-intentioned but has bad results, they spend the other half the episode repairing it by being clever. I don't see the series going anywhere else, but maybe probably that's all kids want.

I just saw the Indiana Jones and the Dial Of Destiny and was very disappointed. A few chases, a nonsensical and limited plot, an actor and story that are too old, and nothing special about it (I warmed to the alien theme and Europeans in Crystal Skull where Dial was going through motions). Everyone else seems to be enthused about Barbie and Oppenheimer but I bet they're overrated, too.

Aw, i really enjoyed it. Not a patch on the originals of course and definitely some weak plotting in places (eg turning the speedboat around) but I thought the characters and action scenes were pretty engaging. It did kinda feel like Phoebe Waller-Bridge wrote a setup for a spin-off starring herself mind. Though given the dismal box office returns, can't see that happening now.

That's cool, I saw it because I'm an Indiana Jones fan but it didn't meet my expectations. I thought critics and audiences were pretty harsh on Crystal Skull though (even though nuking the fridge was pushing the envelope).

I saw Dial of Destiny and had a good time. Indeed, not a patch on the originals (who expected otherwise?) but still enjoyed it. I found nothing to like about Crystal Skulls, no offence to those who enjoyed it, so this was a step up IMO, but yes, it played it safe and went through the motions... I wouldn't have liked to be the director here, it would be impossible to please everyone: you're doing a sequel to a classic series, if you give the viewers more of the same, then some will be unhappy, if you change too many things, then others will also be unhappy. And, yes, you have an action star who is 80+ years old. It was basically impossible to make a film that would please everyone or live up to the original trilogy.
I'm not surprised the box office returns were disappointing; as much as I love Indy, teenagers and young adults (aka the age range of people who most commonly go out to watch movies) did not grow up with the original trilogy like us 80s kids did (assuming a lot of us are 80s kids, since we are on a FF forum), so they were presented with a film from a series that they don't know much about but that their parents liked, and the star is an old guy. Probably not the most attractive choice for them.
I thought Phoebe Waller-Bridge was good, and, yes, acted like a stand-in for Indy for scenes that Harrison Ford couldn't realistically do anymore, and, yes, clearly attempted to lay the groundwork for a spin-off with a "new Indiana Jones" character. I guess it won't happen because of the disappointing box office, but I would have liked to see that; if you stop calling it Indiana Jones and stop using the classic characters, then it paves the way for a new series that doesn't have the inherent problems I mentioned above (can't please everyone because you can't change the holy recipe too much, stars are too old, etc.).

Yeah, that was also the idea with Mutt in Crystal Skull. Unfortunately, no-one liked him! It seems a successor for Indy is hard to find.
