To save polluting the TV thread, I thought I'd start a thread for the films we've seen this year.

I saw A Real Pain the other day and it's a really nicely put together piece by Jesse Eisenberg. It unpeels like an onion, with each layer getting closer to the central pint. Good film.

Babygirl could have been so much better. Nicole Kidman does well but it all feels a bit 'off'.

Rewatched Anatomy of a Fall the other day - brilliant.

Some more recent film watches...

Inside - Aussie prison drama with Cosmo Jarvis once again being brilliant.

Weapons - first film from the makers after Barbarian. The first two acts are great but it's a bit predictable in the third - some great gore if you like that of course.

The Naked Gun - Remake we didn't know we wanted. And still don't. Terrible.

The Fantastic Four First Steps - best of the superheroes films for a while until I saw...

Superman - this was brilliant. Loved the storytelling, casting, the whole thing.

Inside sounds great! I'll give that a go tonight.

Agree F4 & Superman! Apart from the pocket universe cartoony fight thing which was a bit much, I really liked Superman. You can tell they're trying more feel-good and earnest appraoaches instead of the dark brooding stuff, and it's a nice change. Fantastic Four was like a live action Incredibles.

Saw Weapons last night … I enjoyed it. Actually laughed a fair amount and appreciated the tension. E17, what did you think of Barbarian? I preferred Weapons, but perhaps because Barbarian gave me an idea of what I had signed up for this time…

I LOVED Barbarian. It started one way and then just went somewhere completely different.

There was humour in Weapons which I hadn't expected and appreciated the moments of levity.

Been looking forward to Weapons, glad it's getting mostly good reviews. Barbarian completely caught me by surprise, had no idea it was going to do what it did.

Nobody 2 - more of the same and more inventive violence. In and out in 90 minutes like all the best popcorn movies need to be.

Sunlight - very strange road movie with Nina Conti as the main protagonist in a monkey suit. It's stayed with me and I'm not sure why.

The Roses is awful. Not one redeeming feature. Dreadful film.

Superman - absolute fking shit.

Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah, his crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

Saw 'Caught Stealing' tonight..
purposely never read the reviews or watched the trailer
Really enjoyable romp = very much in the vein of an early Guy Richie type crime comedy/drama. Lots of cameo characters - with Zoe Kravitz as the female lead.
Strong 8/10 from me...
