Shazam
Not bad. Not exactly the oddball comic film it has been sold as, but solid entertainment. DC been doing OK recently.

It's good to see she gets knocked about a bit, not cos that's my thing but she is so petite and tiny any decently strong person would snap her in half - weird how male tough guy heroes are always buff, females are sick looking model types who are stick thin.

Its precisely this sort of attitude thats ensured there hasn't been a sequel to sucker punch.

@jegga how can they be NAZI zombies if it is World War 1?
Yeah. No way that's based on a true story.

You've officially become your dad when you see half a dozen hot chicks in lingerie firing machine guns and you moan about historical aberrations .

Watched The Mule...
Pretty good film
4 hookers out of 5 drug runs
Watched Kill Bill V1 last night, dont think has held up very well.

Shazam: I was a little bit disappointed in this, it was watchable, but it's getting good word of mouth so I just assumed it would be better. 2.5 magic 8 balls out of 5 lightning fingers.
Free Solo: So this doco has been crazy hyped to me, so I actually resisted watching it for a while due to the hype ... but it actually lived up to it. A good doco about an odd dude and the crazy climbing he does. 4 that's crazy out of 5 climbing without ropes.

TBH I'd be more interested if it was made in memoriam.

I'm the complete opposite, that was one of the reasons I was wary of watching it.
I was glad that it wasn't a look this guy died doing this ... although there was a bunch of that in there with other free climbers, and he'll likely die soon if he keeps it up.

That's the problem with those sorts of extreme sports - I was big into wingsuiting for a while, it has a terrible death rate ~6-10 a year. Doesn't sound like much, but there aren't a lot of people doing it. Do it often enough and you'll end up a statistic.

@MN5 watched Reservoir Dogs last night, the scene with Stuck in the Middle is still awesome
Quite correct. MM is the most underrated movie tough guy ever

Ain't NEVER watching that.
I get the heebie jeebies at about 5th floor level*.
I know it's on a screen and I can't fall through it but ... nah.

- so not happy that we had apartment on 49th floor in Brisbane last week due to mix up in booking.
