Re: Last film watched
Saw Jordan Peele's follow-up to 2016's sublime Get Out, Us.
He's knocked this one out of the park as well, telling a disturbing and somewhat sad story about an upper middle-class family coming under attack from their own dopplegangers.
Much like how Get Out focused on the underlying tensions between white America and black America, Us focuses on the inequality that has become ingrained in American society, and the lack of attention or care given towards the marginalised.

Is there some good reason that someone would put themselves through watching that?

Re: Last film watched
I watched Split yesterday the film where James McAvoy has 23 personalities, ~I put this off as thought it would be a bit full on but he only reallt does about 5 characters and a couple have very small bits, it's pretty good tho I'm unsure how it links to Unbreakable.

Re: Last film watched
It only "links" with Unbreakable at the very end (Bruce Willis talks about Mr Glass in the bar) - it's just set in the same world. They link in the 3rd one "Glass"Numbers wrote:I watched Split yesterday the film where James McAvoy has 23 personalities, ~I put this off as thought it would be a bit full on but he only reallt does about 5 characters and a couple have very small bits, it's pretty good tho I'm unsure how it links to Unbreakable.

Aye, I did notice that, so Glass is about Bruce Willis trying to apprehend James McAvoy, seems a little bit sketchy.Which Tyler wrote:It only "links" with Unbreakable at the very end (Bruce Willis talks about Mr Glass in the bar) - it's just set in the same world.

Deadwood, wrapped things up,could have done with making it 5 years ago, a few of the actors weren't as effective as previous

I've seen this a gazillion times now. Stirring stuff.

I find Timothy Olyphant to be very wooden which is a shame because most of the cast are pretty good.paddy no 11 wrote:Deadwood, wrapped things up,could have done with making it 5 years ago, a few of the actors weren't as effective as previous

Re: Last film watched
I’ve just started the original series and his acting is quite hilariously bad. That or he is just on a totally different wavelength to everyone else, tone/direction wise. It’s strangely endearing though.Numbers wrote:I find Timothy Olyphant to be very wooden which is a shame because most of the cast are pretty good.paddy no 11 wrote:Deadwood, wrapped things up,could have done with making it 5 years ago, a few of the actors weren't as effective as previous

The Dead Don’t Die. Dreadful. Avoid at all costs. Painfully bad.
