True, I saw it when it first came, I was 8 and it was something else but after that.. Meh.

I liked the Star Wars cards though.

Saw a film called Mr & Mrs Bridge with Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, nothing happened of any consequence throughout the whole film, awful.

Of more recent films, The Greatest Showman, awful film.

You got to be kidding, all great films.

A terrible depiction of the Vietnam war. Sorry but it's shit, but it's not as bad a depiction as Pearl Harbour was.

He's an horrific actor, truly terrible, especially if it's a John Woo effort too.

Avatar - all special effects- very little story.

All the film critic's creaming themselves about the seamless editing then the chattering classes repeating this as if they'd figured it out for themselves. Basically about a soldier being made into a postman. I mean why didn't they just e-mail or text over the battle plans. Seems like half way through the makers realized they weren't being P.C so they introduce a token woman and then a token Indian with a turban to keep the P.C police at bay. Also found Dunkirk a bit of a let down. Seems like the definition of a good movie these days is all about the special effects.

1917 was very good, you cannot call it poor. Dunkirk on the other hand was overhyped and disappointing, mainly for me because it was 'small' and Operation Dynamo was anything but that. I began raging though when I saw that the Bf109 had a yellow nose, and was a Friedrich, not an Emil, therefore a model and livery which did not exist at that time (in fact it was a post war Ha-112 Buchon powered by a Merlin engine). Aside that, the worst shot in the RAF still managed to be an "Ace in a Day" with seemingly unlimited ammo (I may time his bursts actually to see if he fired for longer than 15 seconds). Thanks

You should've mentioned that to H and Miche at Mike's wedding, it would've been worth watching lol

Don’t think anyone rates that film for it to be considered over rated !

So pleased it didn't win the oscar. Unless the category was best ever video game transferred to silver screen.

The Fast and Furious franchise.

Nearly all the superhero films... the later Batmans, the original late 70s Superman, the first Spiderman are my exceptions.
