not seen Game Night but Iâm imagining itâs something like Date Night, which I also havenât seen, but with games instead of dates
Youâve only just thought of this revolutionary concept?
2/5 and below are bad films
2.5/5 is a film too flawed to be good but with some high points, good ideas, a great scene or character etc
3/5 is something I actually liked and would say is worth a watch
5/5 like agg said requires that âsomethingâ thatâs hard to put into words. I basically just treat it as the pinnacle of a genre - Iâm not sure an action could be better then Speed, or a horror better than The Thing so top marks for them
Yeah Iâd say itâs pretty necessary
oh thought you meant youâd finally learned your lesson about Haneke, never mind
itâs a good point though; some people have to learn to give up on the pop-culture stuff despite everyone talking about it, and some have to learn to give up on the most artsy/challenging stuff if it just does nothing for them, despite the plaudits
ainât taste a funny old thing
0.5 - No redeeming features whatsoever, hate it, probably pissed me off to some extent
1 - Bad but probably didnât upset me beyond âwow, what a shit filmâ
1.5 - Pretty crap but ultimately forgettable
2 - Absolutely fine
2.5 - Either had high expectations and it disappointed or had low expectations and it surprised but not too much
3 - Pretty good, I enjoyed these films
3.5 - Good, I enjoyed these films quite a lot
4 - Great, I loved these films!
4.5 - Amazing, these films are exceptional!
5 - Perfect, these films elicit a visceral response in me that is memorable and sometimes life changing
3/5 and above - film contained Nic Cage
Under 3/5 - no Nic Cage present
Guardianâs top 10 films of 2020 doesnât even have Uncut Gems in
Forgot that was this year, itâs definitely my number one.
about half way through watching it the first time i knew it was going to be number 1
was it?? completely forgot to add it to my 2020 Releases list, wow
By UK release date Portrait of a Lady on Fire is my favourite film of 2020 and itâs not particularly close
I definitely need to watch this again. I feel like the trailer really misled me and I felt a bit bored by it.
The final shot was one of the best Iâve ever seen though and I loved Girlhood so it deserves another chance.
Yesterday I watched too many films:
Au Hasard Balthazar - French classic. Story follows a donkey and those that are a part of its life, mainly a young woman. Sad story very well done. 8.5/10.
White, White Day - Icelandic drama. A policeman suspects that his wife whoâs dead had an affair. Enjoyed it. 8/10.
Strange But True - A forgettable thriller with Brian Cox, Greg Kinnear and Beadie from The Wire. Donât bother. 4/10.
Murder Mystery - Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. Didnât mind it. 7/10.
Donât Listen - Spanish horror film on Netflix. Spooky things and voices at a spooky house. Itâs all done before but this film does it well. Worth a look into. 7.5/10.
My 2 faves of the year only made it to the teens.
Was everyone who thought Da 5 Bloods was that good watching a different film to me?
