I guess '28 Sequels Later' might tarnish the franchise a little, as per the dozens of 'Saw' follow ups?

We're just back from a lunchtime showing of "Civil War" in the Reel Cinema, Chorley.
The premise is that both California and Texas have seceded from the union as the President has given himself a third term. It's set not too far in the future. The main characters are war correspondents and photographers.
I'd give it 7 or 8 out of 10.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall
One of those late 00's rom-coms starring Jason Segel and Russel Brand that's half decent because of the cast (Bill Hader, Paul Rudd, Jonah Hill etc. and more importantly Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell). Never quite got Jason Segel as a leading man though, nothing against him, but I don't get it.
Anyway, a pass the time movie that's not awful, but not exactly deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the Library of SJH.
6/10

Or at least a thread ban for bringing it into disrepute.

Late Night With The Devil
Horror movie showing found footage of a 70's late night talk show, where to boost ratings, the host brings an allegedly possessed girl on to the show.
It's a bit different, not very scary for me, but overall it's a good film
8/10

Sisu - an old Finish man takes on the Nazis and John Wicks the shit out of them. Entertaining. 7/10

A Wise Man (once sat next to him)
Napoleon.
Very well done, albeit from an article or two I read about it, strays way from the actual historical facts - which is a shame (same as anything, even the pop star ones like Elvis) because if you are going to do a film about a true character, you should surely have to follow the factual scrips OR make it clear what is fact and what is fiction.

Hundreds of Beavers.
It's insane. It's a zany comedy from a couple of years ago but I'd never heard of it till now. It's all in black & white and is virtually silent other than quirky music, sound effects and the frustrated grunting of the main character.
It's like a cross between Charlie Chaplin, Monty Python and Trigger Happy TV.
Completely nuts but I really enjoyed it.
Synopsis - "A drunken applejack salesman must go from zero to hero and become North America's greatest fur trapper by defeating hundreds of beavers."

Horror film. Young woman books an Air B&B only to find a guy staying there already claiming he'd booked it already.
Won't go too much into it but it definitely doesn't go in the direction you think its going in the opening 15 minutes.
Very much enjoyed it. On amazon prime if anyone's interested.

The Ritual
British horror about a group of old college friends who go hiking in Sweden and find themselves being stalked by something sinister.
Really enjoyed it and found it quite unsettling in parts. 8/10

Dark Waters
True story about a defence lawyer who goes up against Dupont, a corporation that's being polluting the water and endangering people's lives. It's a really interesting film, I never knew about the dangers of Teflon before. Stars Mark Ruffalo, Anne Hathaway and Tim Robbins.

I watched Grown Ups II with the kids tonight, after we watched Grown Ups at the weekend. Both brilliant family films with lots of laugh out loud moments for me, and hundreds for the kids. I do like Adam Sandler films though and I know many don't. I can only give these ones 8/9 out of 10 though, as I'm always using Happy Gilmore as a benchmark.

The Beekeeper.
Jason Statham being Jason Statham, which I appreciate is not to everybody's tastes. Complete non-sensical bull crap but killed a bit of time. No worse than most other films of this ilk but I doubt it will be winning any Oscars any time soon.
Looking forward to The Beekeeper vs John Wick.

Yup, said the same, never going to be anything other than what it is, will it? But was well done. Almost like background music some of these films!

America Murder - The Family Next Door
Netflix true crime documentary about the Watts family murders in 2018. It's all done through home video, police video, social media and texts, no narration.
It's very fucked up.

Arcadian - Nicolas Cage plays a father trying to protect his two sons in a post-apocalyptic world where some kind of unexplained creatures come out at night. Stuff happens and then it just ends - 5/10
Unfrosted - Jerry Seinfeld movie about the creation of Pop Tarts. It has a ridiculous cast including Bill Burr as JFK. Utterly stupid movie but that's kind of it's charm. I have to take a mark off for that song and dance at the end, pure cringe. - 4/10

I really hate Jerry Seinfeld. He's the only comedian who is ever introduced with how much money he has. Larry David and Michael Richards carried his TV series through the 9 seasons.
