Last Movie You Saw & Your Recommendations II

Assassins Club

If you like an action film, you will love this. Similar vibes to John Wick and Kill Bill but without the cultural acclaim both films have made though. Film has some assassin who has others trying to kill him. Film has some surprises towards the end, but is a short film where you can easily enjoy the action. Only recognisable cast member is Noomi Rapace.

The Last Letter from your Lover

A nice romantic film starring Shailene Woodley who i am a huge fan of with her work. Also starring is Felicity Jones. Shaliene character is of a woman in the 1960's who fell in love with a man while married. Film switches up to the present where Felicity comes in and investigates this relationship by the means of letters that were exchanged Film is very moving and both actresses played their role perfectly within their respective time periods.

Dead Shot

A film starring Felicity Jones. Film is set in the 1970's but the music seemed to gel in nicely and was on point. This film has a game of cat and mouse, fast pace where neither side is good or bad. Them sides being Irish IRA and the British SAS soldiers. With this non stop violence you think is there a real winner in this with all the killings. Story is loosely based on the feud between the sides during the 70's

Goon

If you are a fan of Ice Hockey and slapstick then this film is for you. If you seen similar sports comedies like The Waterboy and the longest yard, you will enjoy it. The main character is someone who is a nice guy who doesn't really enjoy giving concussions as the sport may suggest, he is just someone who enjoys wearing the uniform and being part of the team.

Save Yourselves

A comedy that takes itself seriously enough not to be taken too seriously. The premise is quite daft but is a glimpse of current society of how technology consumes us and we always looking at our phones. They decide to switch it off for the weekend as the couple spend time with each other, but they end up being unaware the earth has been invaded by aliens.

El silencio es bienvenido

A drama film about someone who wants to escape her home life, however her family are crumbling as parents are going through divorce and violence is at an all time high. It is quite a slow film and sometimes you have to really pay attention to the dialogue.

The First Purge

If you are into the Purge film series, you should watch this. Each film is it's own story. It has it's usual formula, crime is all legal, there are killings going on. Only difference is it's only for 12 hours and only limited to a certain city. This is because it's meant to be a prequel to the main series

Breaking In

Film is alright for what it is, nothing brilliant, nothing overly rubbish. I would compare the film to Panic Room starring Jodie Foster

Those Who Wish Me Dead

Feels like a typical action thriller in the 90's played by Angelina Jolie as the lead. The director has done well in this film where his similar movies like hell or high water and Sicario has done very well in delivering what was promised.

Main reason to watch is as im a fan of LIly Collins. The film is a great light hearted family fairy tail based on the Snow White Theme

The Light Between Oceans

Romantic film starring the beautiful Alicia Vikander. Film is a bit long and slowly paced, however the actors hurl themselves into their roles with sufficient commitment and feeling that you believe in the couple completely, even when the creaky narrative machinery around them begins to trigger your skepticism.

Slow West

Film starring Michael Fassbender. Film is a slow western and western's is something i haven't been watching alot of growing up but this felt different as a more coming of age one rather than all gun and violence we would normally expect.

Case 39

This film gives off Orphan vibes where you feel like the child you come across with isn't all innocent as they seem to be. Like Orphan this film is about a girl who has been abused by her parents which involves social/child services taking hold of her and Renee Zellweger character looks after her till a foster parent can be found. During that time she realises why her parents did what they did to her. For those that want to adopt or foster kids, these kind of films make you feel put off by doing so. Film starts a bit slow but picks up eventually. There were plenty of moments where you side with the child as just being innocent.

Oppenheimer

The movie is about the life of Robert Oppenheimer the director of the Manhattan Project. He was a physicist, a genius, an extreme liberal teacher at Berkley in California. Under his leadership the United States developed the atomic bomb. His life was quite complicated and to be honest I had to watch it twice to get a better idea of what was going on because it's easy to miss. The movie is not an exciting fast paced drama, but more of a study of the man who changed the world.

House At The End of The Street

Good film starring Jennifer Lawrence, probably made around the era of The Hunger Games, which i associate with her most. I didn't go in with alot of expectation for this as don't get easily scared, and due to that i wasn't disappointed even though didn't get scared. The scenes were a bit clumsy in places but what would you expect with a horror film and where we mostly are use to seeing these things on a daily basis.

Ticket to Paradise

Nice family comedy, but i mainly watched this not cause of George Clooney or Julia Roberts who both done well in their roles, but Kaityln Dyer who i am a fan of. She plays as the daughter of George and Julia in the film who meets a guy and marries him suddenly on the other side of the world. Her parents try and object to it as they are both divorced and done a similar thing in the past. They warm up to the idea though towards the end. It has the same romance formula of girl meets guy, parents don't approve and they go though all the obstacles. There are alot of good funny moments in this fillm

Barbie

Before watching this at the time when this was in cinema, i would have thought this was a kids film as it was barbie. Boy was everyone mistaken when they took their kids to watch this film. This is far from it, a good film showing gender issues from both pov's of the sexes. There is a brilliant range of cast members in the film, mostly Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. Bonus if you into feet as you get to see plenty of Margot's in the film, but thats not for me

In The Heights

A mexican musical comedy film set in New York. I don't recognise any of the cast besides the one who plays Rosa in Brooklyn Nine Nine but it felt good. The songs, the dancing but it wasn't over the top that it takes away from the plot of the film. It shows so much for many immigrants who decided to live in the states for a better life, some who are chasing their dreams, the struggle of being an immigrant and also what our parents have done for us.
