Watched it in the cinema when it was released, it really is poor. They weren't helped by not having the rights to the music, but I can't help but feel that was a by-product of it being sh*te. I assume it was mostly watched by people who like the band's music and most of them know that Mozza was a weird, depressed young man with a romanticised view of the world that he didn't know what to do with until Johnny Marr knocked on his door. In hindsight, it was an achievement to get a film out of that sentence!

watched "The Siege of Jadotville" on Netflix. Good film, its about the Irish Army on UN peace keeping duty in Congo in the 60's. Well worth a watch

I saw this a while back and enjoyed it, despite the odd dodgy Irish accent. Decent watch though.

I watched The Invisible Guest on Netflix a couple of days ago and thought it was very good. It's a Spanish thriller about a man that wakes up with a dead woman in his room, and he's trying to find out what happened. It's maybe a little contrived at times but I really enjoyed it. 8/10.

I went to see Mid90s and absolutely loved it. I don't think I will enjoy a film more this year.

Detroit on Netflix

4/5

Really good film, some gripping scenes especially in the house when the police were interrogating the group up against the wall and then brought each individual into different rooms to try and force answers from them all.

It was hard viewing at times, seeing the constant struggle the African American community went through (I know it's still rife in some states even today unfortunately)

Wild Rose isn’t bad
About a single mother in Glasgow who’s been in jail that has a dream of becoming a country music star in Nashville.

Cold Pursuit is a truly awful film. Unfortunately I still have 25 minutes left of this God awful piece of sh*t yet to go. This is my Everest.

Its a documentry and I dont say this lightly but its amazing. 5/5.

If you haven't heard of it, don't bother reading reviews and just watch it blind. That's what I did ... mind blown. 

Its brilliant ,the last 15 minutes or so are unreal.

I watched this last night - brilliant!

Just Wow, you have to be crazy to call that a sport.

Avengers: Endgame
The remaining characters that are left try and find a way to bring back the vanished. 
Suppose that's all I can say.
It was good but I think Infinity War was probably better. Everyone seems to have their own character arc once again rather then a whole ensemble piece.
One moment was a bit cringey and Hollywood but a few 'F*ck yeah' moments. Loads of people in the cinema started clapping and yelling. It was a cool moment but I don't think I've ever experienced that before. It seemed like a very American thing to do.
Maybe it was just the excitement of seeing it on the opening day.
The dark side.. And the light

I don't think so. It was a stream job when I saw it anyway. There's another one on Netflix though called The Dawn Wall. Both are excellent.

Oh a cinema full of nerds getting to the end of a 10 year story
Saying that, I watched it, I enjoyed it, and would probably watch it again
The Hollywood moment I think you're referring to was cringey, but didn't take away from the movie
 
Went to see Green Book at the weekend as well. Now that's a great movie
