The definition of a great popcorn movie IMO.

Seymour-Hoffman was so annoying in it though..

.. amazing to see the career he carved out after it.

It was a very Jack Black type performance

Watched 'The White Tiger' the other night and thought it was very good.

Also agree with those who said Sherpas was worth watching!

Thunder Force
In a world where supervillains are commonplace, this comedy follows two estranged childhood best friends who reunite after one devises a treatment that gives them powers to protect their city – and the other can’t resist the urge to try it. Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer star.

I posted about this yesterday, but then deleted because I was unsure if the deal will affect us here - the Sony press release specifies that this is an "exclusive first pay window licensing deal in the U.S."

true but its all depends if sony have a deal with sky who are the big players over here

Age of Samurai : Battle for Japan

I thought it was amazing. I knew a lot of this period before as they make computer games on this era of unifying Japan.

Ruthlessly cruel and violent warlords battle among themselves and in the end there is 250 years of peace.

They have some authors and professors jumping in and introducing characters and giving the facts while you watch the drama. Seamlessly done

Just finished watching it. Perfect quiet Friday evening movie.

I had forgotten Cameron from Ferris Bueller was on it.

Just finished Trial by fire. I thought it was definitely worth the watch.

I thought it sounded familiar, just realised I watched a documentary about the same story a long time ago, if was a good watch.

Just finished watching 'Run'. Very good. Well worth the watch.

Just finished season 2 of unforgotten. Brilliant!

Its a brilliant show, I would personally take it over line of duty any day.
I would say stay of the dedicated thread on here, spoilers abound for season 4, which was excellent as usual.

I couldn't believe how that thread went

It was a sudden change from spoilers to anything goes and thankfully i had already watched the last episode.

That is very true, I remember posting spoiler tags etc on the night but it went out the window with people pretty quickly, in fairness the title of the thread was changed to say it contained spoilers.

The annoying thing was the spoiler for Unforgotten Season 4 was everywhere , all over the media and newspaper . I haven’t seen it yet and unfortunately know the jist now
Having said all that it’s absolutely brilliant !

Bad Trip was good harmless silly fun..

.. some hits, some misses but unfortunately do think it would have worked best as a cinema movie with an audience. Shame!

Worth a watch for something daft and entertaining though.

I like silly comedies, but I turned this off half way through, just couldn't get into it.
