Etcetera etcetera etcetera

The King & I was a recorded live theatre event, and was an engaging and brilliant production. All the characters were expertly portrayed, the sets, the songs and musical production were fantastic. Neither of us had seen the film for many years and neither of us had seen the show before so it was a real nostalgic trip for us, and a lovely reminder of a beautiful story.

Apart from perhaps a bit of atmosphere this is such a great way to view a West End production. No travel issues, waiting for trains or inconvenience. Also none of the added issues of travelling to London, parking, dinner out etc..and with an unlimited card there is just a £6.00 surcharge to pay. Well worth it. Thoroughly enjoyable.

We will give each film we see a score out of 10 for overall enjoyment.

This is not a cartoon. This is the real world.

We had really low expectations of Glass , because we hadn't enjoyed Split, although we both thought Unbreakable was a masterpiece. The fear was, where would M. Night Shyamalan take it, but where he took it was to comic book land and it worked beautifully. There were unexpected twists and turns but the core characters stayed true to their comic book personae, and new characters were introduced who helped the plot to build into the ultimate stand off. Visually it was very interesting, and colour was used to add to the fibre and atmosphere of the film, from the stark white hospital rooms and the vast pink room where they meet, to the silver metropolis seen from the parking lot. The characters were played brilliantly and Samuel L. Jackson was enigmatic in the title role. It was difficult not to feel empathy for Bruce Willis, as his intent was pure from the start, albeit vigilante. James McAvoy plays the part that is most difficult to sympathise with, and although he continues to b...

I Love Five People and Ponce is Two of them

Julia Roberts proving that she really can act and Lucas Hedges proving that be is wise beyond his years, in a sad take on a Mother's need to protect her child against all sound reasoning and at a cost to the rest of her family and potentially her own well-being. Ben is Back is a lovely film with sadness and risk running throughout it. Told again from a slightly different angle, but with lots of familiar themes and issues. The mistrust when someone has a history of drug use, the desperate need of a parent to protect and understand their child, especially when their behaviour is alien or out of character. The film mostly documents one night in these peoples lives and the dark turns and lengths they go to, and how decisions they make impact upon each other. We will give each film we see a score out of 10 for overall enjoyment. Ben is Back = 8 No feel good elements which made it hard to enjoy although a very good film. The card...

Sh Shit!

Shazam! is an absolutely dreadful pile of tosh. The story was poorly thought out and executed and the characters were inconsistent. The effects were everything you expect in this sort of film. The humour was not. We have come to the conclusion at last that these super hero films just aren't for us. In fact we already knew that but the trailer for this one was so misleading that we actually thought it would be amusing. It wasn't, and we didn't give it the satisfaction of even watching it til the end. Rubbish. The trailer made the film look like a deadpool-esque parody of a comic book character. It hinted at humour but this wasn't forthcoming. We felt duped by the trailer which certainly wasn't a true representation of the film. The only redeeming features were the foster parents and we agreed that we would have preferred to see the development of that storyline. We will give each film we see a score out of 10 for overall enjoyment. Shazam! = 2 ...
