That's not bad either. Billy Zane wasn't bad as 'The Ghost who walks'
Ever seen Mulcahy’s Tale of the Mummy? It’s like a Hammer film, with dodgy effects and over-the-top acting, made in the 90’s.
Not seen that film will have to look out for it, I am a fan of Mulcahy Highlander and The Shadow two of my favourite films, I liked Resident Evil Extinction also another film Russel did.
Very good and funny, and in the parts they did not delete from the novel, a very close adaptation of the book. Still, basically a condensed version of the original work. But totally enjoyable, with fantastic acting (especially by Robert Gustafsson, who plays the protagonist from age 25 to 100). A kind of Swedish version of Forrest Gump, minus the overdone saccharine sweetness, calculated sentimentality and implicit nationalism of the latter...and better for it.
It was better than i thought it would be ,i enjoyed it as a popcorn flick.
Nice to see the main hero and main villain are both Englishmen in real life.
I thought Maggie Grace was good. She kicked some butt.
I'm not American but his Southern accent seemed pretty much spot on,what do you think ?
Grease is ok I feel there are no character arcs and sub plots go no where (why did the woman have the pregnancy scare) over all it's a classic so I would recommend seeing it if you haven't but its not for me however I LOVE the end song by Barry Gibb
Casino Royale what can I say other then its a brilliant bond film I am unsure if I am gonna see a lot of 007 this year not out of a lack of want but my step father who is having back issues is stuck home from work and I gave him my box sets of the films Dr. No - Die another day and one of my copies of Casino Royale because well I want to be a good son of course I might take one or two of the Dalton films back to show my wife but that is another sorry for another day

Classic Cronenberg. Glad you liked it. If you think that was gruesome wait until you see Shivers
I was wanting to see either Ready Player One, A Quiet Place, or Pacific Rim: Uprising but I have to work this evening so there were no showtimes that would be done before I had to be at work. I knew I would eventually get around to seeing Rampage because I grew up playing the games, so I figured I'd go ahead and see it today.
Honestly it wasn't as bad as I was expecting but it still wasn't anything great. It's just a decent popcorn flick and giant monster movie. The only thing that really brings it down is just some shoddy acting and some corny lines but at the same time it almost adds to the movie. I was surprised at how much cursing was in the film, even some sexual references here and there. There were quite a few little ones in the theater so that must've been awkward for the parents.
If you enjoy giant monster films or played the games I'd recommend it but you could also wait for it to be a rental.
At least IW will release globally at once, and I hope the Bond folks choose to do the same with B25 rather than relying on glowing UK reviews to carry them into North America, as has traditionally been the case (it worked in 2012, and failed in 2015).
If I get a chance, I will to catch Beirut later in the week too. I'm pretty sure, given how things go these days, that it won't be in the theatre for long.
You're right - it's best to curb any sort of leaks, and can prove helpful at the box office.
Carry On Cleo (1964)
SPYING isn't one of my favourites, it's an average Carry On film for me. CLEO is (at least) one of the best. Thanks to the Burton/Taylor crew decamping from the UK to Italy, leaving the sets and costumes behind for the Carry On gang to take advantage of. Because of this, CLEO is the best looking and the funniest too. The regulars (Sid James, Joan Sims, Charles Hawtrey and both Kenneth's) are perfectly cast. HENRY will come close, but I don't know if it will top CLEO.

"Infamy, Infamy!…they've all got it in-for-me!"
Gritty little crime thriller with the great George C. Scott as the former getaway driver returning for one last job, to transport killer Tony Musante and his girlfriend across the border.
Directed by Richard Fleischer (who replaced John Huston), with a Barryesque score by Jerry Goldsmith and lensed by Sven Nykvist ,
It's a slow burn movie with nicely shot car sequences. Haven't seen it in years. It's rather forgotten about, but worth a watch, especially for Scott!
Probably Cronenberg's last film that was really Cronenbergian
Of his later stuff I didn't care for Cosmopolis or Maps to the Stars
Not a fan of Naked Lunch either.
I’m trying to watch them all. Existenz was maybe his most fun movie; lots of great drama, action, and humor. Definitely will rank high.
My favourites of his are: The Dead Zone and A History of Violence (2005).
