    Default What movies have you watched lately?

    I think we have the upcoming movies and best movies thread but nothing for what you are actually watching week to week. They might be ancient like say Planet of the Apes, or current like The Martian, room for all. They might even be mentioned not too far prior.

    Watched Sicario last weekend, very much enjoyed it. There are some very subtle moments and you have to be switched on and concentrating at various times. Did he really just do that or are they letting my imagination run wild? Is she really that dumb or......? Excellent flick for mine.

    Complimented it with Bone Tomahawk, quite a polarising movie imo. Some may call it excruciating slow and boring while others might find it a classic. I personally found it a decent movie, yes it's slooooooooow getting to the real action and dare i say gore but there was just enough in there to keep me going.

    The Revenant..... Great movie. Some of the violence was extremely graphic but it really worked well. Great story and great acting. I haven't seen all the nominated movies but I think Leo DiCaprio must be a shoe in for an Oscar.
    The Martian was pretty enjoyable too.

    I'm about to watch Life of Brian (on SBS) for the zillionth time.

    I'm going to pay particular attention to some of the stuff in the background rather than the primary action. Some hilarious things happen in the background of this movie.

    The Martian was great, a real plus to the value of science.

    Creed was great as well, you get the good rocky feel with a twist and the ending is very fitting
    If it aint for sale the right price has just not been offered

    I caught The Imitation Game on pay TV the other night and was quite impressed. Definitely worth watching.

    Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.

    Imitation Game is very good IMO.

    Watched the Armstrong Lie this week as well - you've got to be semi familiar with the story of it all (not just the drug cheat part) but still good viewing.

    I keep re-watching Rush as well, although since I found out that the racing part was done almost entirely at Brands Hatch, I can't help but notice it now through the movie.

    I thought Bridge of Spies was quite good but a small unheard of indie documentary that I saw recently has really caught my imagination.

    It's called Tim's Vermeer. Tim is obviously some kind of polymath (a guy who can do anything), and without any artistic training whatseover, recreates a 16th century Dutch masterpiece. How he does this is beyond amazing going so far as to rebuild the scene in the original painting in it's entirety, making a lens from scratch using only 16th century technology etc etc.

    The guy is an uber perfectionist and one of the highlights of the movie was when he found that his lathe was a few inches too short for him to turn the legs of the chair he was building from scratch for his scene recreation so rather than build the chair legs in two pieces, he cuts his lathe in half and extends it. If this guy set his mind to golf, well, the mind boggles..

    Watched Rampage: Capital Punishment, different from the first with a lot less killing and far more "message" if you can call it that.

    I introduced the kids to it a couple of weeks ago. I could watch it over...and over...and over again.

    Watched The Last Castle last night. Reasonable fare, even if a bit far fetched.

    I thought the movie was very well done. It was a great introspective into the group and their importance in music history.

    My only complaint is that I wish it could have been longer, even though it came in at 2hrs 47 minutes.

    I am going to track down Jerry Heller's book, although by a lot of accounts, it is filled with half truths and lies.

    I'd love to know the actual story behind Eazy-E's death. A few conspiracies out there.
