Terminator Dark Fate. Not expecting much and it didn’t deliver much. Definitely got better once Arnold shows up half way through. Like many people I just disagree with the decision they went with when the movie starts. Could’ve been a similar movie but probably a bit better staying with JC being the main guy.

Watched Eraserhead after all these years it's still the weirdest movie I have ever seen and still struggle to make sense of it ...pretty much every David Lynch film really.

So did I

I love and hate this movie equally.

I think Mulholland drive will always be his best.

And I honestly can't complain about Naomi Watts lesboing it up and fingering herself.

I like dumb comedy, I am happy to put something stupid on and have a giggle but even this was too dumb and shit for me.

I plant it firmly in the movie 43 basket, unfortunately.

It had promise but it just didn't work for me.
I liked Movie 43. Got a few good laughs out of it.

I like most Lynch films, but even the above couldn't redeem Mullholland Drive for me.

Train to Busan

that was some pretty crazy shit

#2 is coming out

should be good
The 2nd one isnt bad. Not as good as the first imo, but still worth a watch. I've never been into horror or zombie movies, but I do like these ones.

Extraction (the Netflix Original with Chris Hemsworth)

It was universally panned by critics, for being too violent, and having a generic story.

However, I enjoyed it - the action sequences were obviously heavily inspired by the John Wick series, and as a result, the action sequences are tight, explosive, and exhilarating.

The story isn't super original, but at the end of the day, it's an action/thriller film - it's supposed to get the adrenaline flowing, and it does so.

It's not the world's greatest film, but I enjoyed it; I was surprised that the 2 hours flew by quite rapidly.

Take it as an action movie, with badass action sequences, rather than a film with a point to make, and I think you will enjoy it.

My thoughts exactly.

It was an old school action movie with great use of today's tech to make the action quite great.

It was never going to be Shakespeare but I'll be damned if I wasn't entertained.

Watched half past dead and it begs the question has there ever been a good Steven Seagal movie in the history of cinema?

I totally agree - some of the close quarters gunfights were really, really good.

And Hemsworth was likeable, and badass.

It was a fun flick.

i watched Mulholland Drive recently and actually worked out the whole plot, which isn't actually that complicated once you know whats happening.

Yeah it's not that difficult, still well made though.

I jumped like a bitch when that thing came around from behind the corner behind the diner.

I don't think this was true, I think it sits above 50 on both Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic, and I heard positive reviews of it from both the "commericial" movies podcast I listen to and the more "film snob" one as well.
