What Did You Watch Today?

Dude, spoilers?

I've just watched Tara Reid giving birth inside the stomach of a shark with her pants still on and the shark falling down from outer space!

 

Sharknado 3 is MAGIC

You watched this just to annoy me, didn't you

You get it Ben!

Watched Spy tonight. Pretty enjoyable flick. I enjoy Melissa McCarthy swearing at shit never fails to tickle me, Statham is fun, and I'd still do nasty shit to Rose Byrne.

So, Rogue Nation was a pretty fun summer blockbuster. It's got a lot of twists and turns that you'd come to expect from an MI film, so not a lot of surprises, but still, solid fun. Rebecca Ferguson's femme fatale character was actually the best part of the whole film, she holds her own as the only female on the cast and actually much better ass than Cruise does.

Wow. Tom Cruise's ass is great, so that's really saying something.

[Benjamin]

I don't even feel like fixing that now

Armour of God II: Operation Condor (1991) is still so much fun!

[Jimmy]

Finally got round to seeing both On The Waterfront and Charade, both great for entirely differences reasons, except for the presence of iconic Hollywood stars in both absolutely stealing the show. Brando is iconic and Grant, even in his later years, is as brilliant and charming as ever. 

Was somewhat let down by L'Atalante, as it's so highly spoken of. I appreciated it, but it just joined a long list of 'classics' that I just didn't love as much as everyone else. Summer with Monika was a worthy chapter of Bergman's filmography: it's a very raw, and a little bit hit and miss, but there's still so much magic in the film that only someone like Bergman is capable of. 

And for a bit of research, I watched two British dramas about gang violence. Honeytrap has a fantastic lead performance, but not a lot else, and Kidulthood is entertaining for what it is, even if it tries a little bit too hard, it's still quite endearing, which is maybe a strange phrase to describe a film which is mostly about teenage sex and violence, but I think it's kind of apt.

Man, I love On the Waterfront.

[Jimmy]

I know, right? The script is so tight, and the acting is just on another level. 

[Benjamin]

I still think that was Karl Madden's best performance ever. The scene where he gives the speech in the ship is one of my favorite ever. Also, the climatic scene was such a great one.

[Jimmy]

Definitely, I think that was the scene that really sold me on the whole film. It's such a good scene, and it's so charismatic that you totally buy into setting up everything it does.

Mission: Impossible Rouge Nation 

It was great, I think its my favorite one.  More of these please.

[Benjamin]

Far From the Madding Crowd is pretty good. Carey Mulligan is a pretty great Bathsheba, and Michael Sheen is always good at playing a guy with a stick up his ass. I was really looking forward to this, especially after Vinterberg blew me away with the Hunt, and I think I came away satisfied. The locations they shot at were beautiful.

Twin Dragons (1992), had twice the amount of Jackie Chan 

[Benji]

Forgot how much I love The Mighty Ducks.

Forgot how much I love The Mighty Ducks.

And D2: The Mighty Ducks too!

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Homeland is so interesting. Halfway through season one and it's got me gripped.

Carrie is annoying as all hell though. I completely agree with her reasoning for things but she's such a whiny bitch about it.

Damien Lewis is awesome, as well.

[Benji]

Prepare for a horrendous drop-off next season.
