Watched "The Foreigner" on Netflix yesterday. Produced by Jackie Chan.  Set in Britain and is about an IRA splinter group setting of bombs in London.  I expected a heap of kung fu type Shit.  Happily it has bugger all and quite an entertaining movie.  Politics, bombings, double crossing and revenge.

APOLLO 11. At IMAX. For a compilation of 50year old clips it comes up very well on the big screen but the sound of the Saturn 5 launch is fantastic.

[Kangaron]

Another vote for the Foreigner, good flick.

Last night watched [again] The Highest Honor, 1982, about a Z force attack on Singapore in 1944, and the aftermath.
On SBS, a classic piece of history.

Have been lately craving watching a good WW2 movie, so ended up buying a copy of the Mosquito Squadron DVD.
First saw it at our local picture theatre, The Planet, at Camp Hill in the early seventies.
Who could ever forget that music when the Mosquito's are on their way to bombing the church...magic !!
Why doesn't TV show any war movies any more 👹
Cheers

Netflix.. Liam Neeson.. Non Stop.. Not the usual shoot em up.. Bit of tense drama and a plot twist..

[Spada]

I've never really thought of myself as being part of the tin foil hat society, but I watched this 2h documentary on Netflix yesterday, and now I wonder? - trailer;-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX8GxLP1FHo

It's the story about Cambridge Analytica told by one of their people who turned whistle-blower talks about how they bought data profiles of millions of people from Facebook and used targeted marketing & fake news to influence votes for the Trump election and Brexit.

With master 10 doing a project on space and everything to do with it, we thought it might be a good idea to watch a few "space" movies/ documentaries.

Watched Apollo 11 and then First Man.

Learnt quite a bit from Apollo 11. Things I didn't realise like how they had to turn part of the rocket around and reattach to the lunar module.

Downfall https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0363163/

We've all seen Hitler raving about something, so finally got to see what he was actually on about!

Watched "A Star is Born" yesterday with the missus. I reckon I fell asleep three times and everytime I woke up thinking is it still going.

Not my cup of tea obviously

[Pottsy]

Bad times at the El Royale with Mickey Rourke, a pulp fiction style movie, plenty of twist and turns. Well worth a watch.

From Wiki..
' Star Is Born is a 2018 American musical romantic drama'
5 ring ahooooga chick flick alert...
That wasnt enough to make you slash your wrists   LOL

[corndog]

No good slashing your wrists. You wouldn't  bleed out quick enough. Go straight for the jugular.

I got about an hour in and thought jeezus is anything going to happen. Even the missus was regretting pressing play.

Should of remembered that anything critics rave about is usually a heap of crap

[wakychapmans]

I watched Mortal Engines.

I could have watched the dog licking himself. Would have been more entertaining...

The price we pay a new Block buster every night on 20 different channels. they cant write them fast enough let alone make em fast enough...

It will only get worse as time goes on.

Went and saw " Danger Close "  the Long Tan battle movie this morning .. For a first showing, Only about twenty people in the theatre,  not a box office busting start..
All I can say is it falls short in its portrayal in a lot of ways . Its an ok movie that just didnt hit the mark for me though,  after reading / seeing the battle  documented over the years .
I reckon it portrays some people in a bad light and I dont reckon they or their relatives would be too happy ..But thats movie dramatic licence  ..
