The last movie you've last watched last

Watched The Prestige last night. Knew zero about it. Pleasantly surprised. Picked a few of the twists, but caught well off guard with others. 8/10.

I’ve noticed that most movies I really like seem to rate badly with Rotten Tomatoes, so I looked at what plays well with their audiences. It’s a predictably shite list IMHO. I cared zero about their ratings before looking...even less now.

Watched about 7 minutes of ‘Lady Driver’ just now. Name sounded familiar so I thought it might be ok. It wasn’t, and isn’t. 1/10 at best.

I’m definitely no film critic...and I’m sure most of my faves would have been canned by them....but I absolutely can’t abode most of what seems to sell and rate well.

I agree with you though. Not sure why movie reviewer as a job needs to exist.

For Christ sake. Mission Impossible Fallout is 6th highest rated movie ever on RT. My fam watched it the other day. I tried, but it was honestly one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.

Tried to watch Beowulf. I’m sure the animation was good at the time...but I found it unwatchable after 3 minutes. Pity, was looking forward to it. Watched ‘Tucker’ instead. Cheesy, but loved the cars and was already familiar/interested in story. Very few movies don’t have me checking to see if movie is almost over. Wasn’t on this one. That’s a positive.

Have you watched the '300' with gerard butler? It's terrible, you'd appreciate it.

Just finished Season 1 ... thanks for the inspiration !
Was funny cos the truman show was on recently as well, and seeing laura linney in these two roles makes her extra creepy. and not sure if i like or hate bateman with his character, its great.

It was on the Teev at FIL’s house one day. I wasn’t able to get into it then, but I’m now learning hoe truly good a truly awful meeting can be.

season 3 of ozark - this is breaking bad levels of good.
Woah! Big call there cowboy.
But I agree it is very very good. Considering every character is detestable it does a great job of drawing you in to their world.
