    Ex Machina on Netflix. If you like Black Mirror you will like this.A bit too much dialogue for me but it kept me interested. All the better for seeing the delightful Alicia Vikander naked #I need to grow up.

Starring Gemma Arterton, Paddy Considine, Glenn Close, and Sennia Nanua, the plot depicts a dystopian future following a breakdown of society after most of humanity is wiped out by a fungal infection and focuses upon the struggle of a scientist, a teacher and two soldiers who embark on a journey of survival with a special young girl named Melanie.[3]


    Excellent zombie film in the mould of 28 days later. Not bad film apart from last 10 minutes but then a twist at the end
    Saw this last weekend. Really enjoyed it

    Re-watched Scott Pilgrim vs The World recently. It may have flopped slightly at the box office, but Edgar Wright's style really shines through, some of the transitions are brilliant

    I know what you're going to ask and no, sea-lions are not actually lions.

    Hope this helps.

    I watched a really good copy on kodi, but for the best part of an hour at the start they're talking bengal (I think) with no subtitles.

    Now I don't know if that's for effect because the young Sirou is lost and doesn't understand the language in Calcutta, or whether it just missing cos it's a copy. There's not a great deal of dialogue and you manage to follow what's going on so I get the feeling it's the former..just wanted to know if anyone saw it in the cinema and can confirm it!

    Saw Jackie and John Wick 2 his weekend, really enjoyed both.
    Natalie Portman is fantastic in Jackie and the soundtrack is really unsettling, fits the film brilliantly.

    John wick out mentals the first and is just pure gun porn and violence, plus death by pencil.
    Loved it.

    Just come back from watching Hidden Figures, the story of the black women who worked on the American space programme - in the 1960s - and faced racial and sexual discrimination on a scale hard to imagine (or remember) today.

    Excellent film with Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monáe in the lead roles, supported by Jim Parsons (aka Sheldon from Big Bang Theory), Kirsten Dunst and Kevin Coster (who plays Kevin Coster from any film he's done in the last 20 years).

    John Glenn comes out of it very well too.

    Don't Take Me Home. Hugely enjoyable with some laughs,smiles and tears. Emotional bits included the national anthem in Bordeaux,the demolition of Russia and the homecoming.
    The film starts slowly with the Speed tribute but gradually gathers pace. Bale's on camera chemistry and Coleman's wise words especially about these being the best days of the players live stand out as did Bale's incredible leg muscles.

    Ronaldo's header against us was better than I had previously thought. It was immense. His after the game consolation of Bale is iconic in a similar way to Moore and Pele in Mexico 70.
    My only gripes would be that a bit more time could have been spent on the qualifiers and some of the memorable chants and songs like Zombie Nation,Hal Robson Hal Robson Kanu and Can't take my eyes of you could have had an airing.

    Overall though it was a fitting film evoking some wonderful memories and achievements.

    We saw it yesterday. Brilliant film - especially the early part in India. Genuine tear-jerker at the end.

    In answer to your question - yes there are subtitles from the start whenever Hindi or Bengali are spoken. So you didn't watch a really good copy. We met a friend on the way out of the cinema whose daughter had watched a 'dodgy' download a few days before, and that was also without subtitles. She wasn't as confident as you that she was following the story properly without them.

    I might have been overly confident! Still, I enjoyed the film, but I'll watch it again with the subtitles. Thanks for getting back to me :thumb up:

    The Mrs dragged me along kicking and screaming to see this on Saturday afternoon. Spent the last half hour busting for a piss but didn't want to miss anything. I absolutely loved it.
    What struck home to me was how such discrimination could be perceived as "normal" in society, even among people who weren't overtly racist e.g it took a rant to make the Kevin Costner character aware of it.

    Truly amazing to see what those ladies eventually went on to achieve and the recognition they received.

    Watched 'Life Animated' last night. Super documentary by Roger Williams about an autistic boy (now 23) who finds how to communicate through Disney movie dialogue and actions. Moving and very funny... while his brother points out the pitfalls of having a brother who only has a view of relationships through Disney movies and suggests 'Disney porn' to help his bro. Funny. respect to Disney for allowing so much footage and their employees to be used in the documentary

    Liked the Founder. Very interesting and honestly I had never given a thoughts as to how McDonalds started.

    Not my usual genre of movie but thought the girl who played the girl with all the gifts was brilliant. Enjoyed it.

    Great scene! No doubt. Thought the movie was a monumental let down though sadly. Like the history side though

    Quite possibly the best superhero film I have seen.

    Not a childs film at all they've gone all out in the swearing and gore department. And it is hilarious.
