Third Mother - well I enjoyed it, but its not a good film in any way at all. Which is kinda why I enjoyed it.
Really need to watch some of the others like Sleepless and The Card Player, just to see what happening in there. Phantom and Dracula can fuck right off though!
I think he's basically done now though as no new projects and nothing in the pipeline for many years. Which is entirely fair.
Saw this on Netflix and was very pleasantly surprised. I'm no film aficionado really but it wasn't what I was expecting and there was a lot of stuff that really resonated with me.
Some way into the film you realise things might go in different directions but it keeps you unsure for a while.
I loved the setting of the film. I've been to the area where it's set and the cinematography really captures the light and feeling of the place.
Had a western weekend as sky had a westerns special. Watched:
Hostiles with christian bale who I generally like and it was pretty good. Several inexplicable point blank gunfights but its a western and its good.
Also watched Valley of Violence with Ethan Hawke and John Travolta, bordered on comedy at times but thoroughly enjoyable film.
Ballad of Lefty Brown, not typical as the 'hero's' were old or kids but a decent watch.
However if you like westerns watch Warlock, its the daddy : )
Edit - just looked at the IMDB user reviews. Loads of 10s (out of 10) and loads of 1s - and pratically nothing in between so opinion is clearly divided.
It's been a long time (approx 32 years) since I read the book, but it seems like a pretty faithful rendition. They may have changed lots of details which I don't remember, but it feels very much like Stephen King - i.e. one or two very simple ideas strung out into a very long yarn.
I enjoyed it. I wanted to go straight on to part 2!
Have you seen the recent IT revision? I felt it was too bit too bathed in 80's nostalgia and I couldn't really get into it.
Btw, when it comes to revisiting Argento's legacy, I really liked 'Berberian Sound Studio'. Not a slavish revisiting of his legacy but the fingerprints of Argento was definitely there.
Glenn Close is awesome. Fantastic movie
Plenty of 5 star reviews.
Really good, if a little dated.
Great film. Quite sad too.
I have just managed to watch Blade Runner 2049. The original is possibly my favourite film, must have seen it over 100 times. I thought the sequel was brilliant. Really enjoyed it, almost perfect IMO. Visuals, music, atmosphere, plot link to original, superb.
Thought it was a bit too easy to locate Deckard though, seeing as he's been in hiding for so long.
I thought the blade runner sequel was very entertaining.
Blade Runner 2, as it should have been titled, was fantastic but about 30 mins too long. Cut all the bearded blokes scenes and its likely to be much better.
Of the three of us that saw it, I loved it and the other two hated it.
Also, liking the fact that Harrison Ford didn't bother with costume and just wandered onto set in an old t-shirt and jogging bottoms.
