The Rise of Skywalker - only just got round to watching this, having somehow managed to avoid spoilers since it's release. Enjoyable end to Skywalker Saga despite some glaring problems - 6/10.
The Land Before Time - The 80’s dinosaur cartoon. Put this on for a light watch and holy **** this was horrendously sad!! Pass the tissues! There really is a strange amount of death in some children’s 80’s films. I particularly ‘enjoy’ how doing the whole Mufasa thing wasn’t enough, they then have to double-down on the sadness with that ‘shadow scene’. Jeez!
Actually a very good film with a very pleasing run time of ~70 minutes. Not something I’d just shove a child in front of unsupervised though. I had seen it before, but I must have repressed my memories of how brutal it is!
7/10
The first film I ever watched at the Cinema
Introduced my kids to Napoleon Dynamite, just brilliant! 5/5
Good job!Napoleon dynamite 7.5/10
Decided to rewatch this as the Mrs had never seen it. Such a funny film, a cult classic
Extraction - 8/10
Loved it, well worth a watch and way better than I was expecting
Extraction and enjoyed it, very good fight and action scenes, exactly what I was in the mood for. Bit a annoying that the narrative scenes were so quiet and the action scenes so loud, constantly messing with the volume but other than that it was good.
7/10
The Rise Of Skywalker
Now I don't have rose-tinted specs when it comes to Star Wars, they're just decent popcorn movies. I enjoyed The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. But this was just utter, nonsensical dross.
Randomly flip-flopping from one rushed scene to the next, awful fighting across spacetime wtf scenes, no flow to the movie at all. They dead! They not dead!
Just an awful film, I was glad when it ended. The other half was glad when I said it was nonsense as she not being a SW fan had absolutely no clue what was going on. At least TFA, TLJ, Rogue One etc. stood as watchable films on their own.
2/10.
