    @antipodean haha I think that summarised it perfectly 👌

    The Red One - pretty good cast with Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans, JK Simmons, Lucy Liu

    fun movie where Simmons is Santa and the Rock is his head of security as Santa is kidnapped.

    3 fighting polar bears out of 5 mythical beings

    And The Old Guard, a action film from Netflix that didn't actually suck, about immortal warriors starring Charlize Theron

    I've watched this a couple of times. Good fun. A sequel is due to be released in July.

    Watched Chef with Jon Favreau. Nicely acted, feel good road trip film, with lots of cameos and small parts for well known actors like Sophia Vergara, Oliver Platt, Dustin Hoffman and Robert Downey Jr.

    I’ve seen Chef about 10x, great flick

    I love cooking movies even more than Mariner loves treasure hunt ones

    Have you seen the Ang Lee film, eat drink man woman? If you love food films it's great

    Let’s get some more recommendations going!

    I loved the Hundred Foot Journey, and a quick search tells me I need to watch Tampopo and Big Night. Can’t sleep on Ratatouille either…

    @voodoo Big Night was good fun. Hundred foot journey was excellent as well. Ratatouille takes some topping as a food movie though.

    Saw 'the taste of things' at the french film festival last year. On the big screen the food porn was off the charts. Gluttony literally there!

    Description below - it was great to watch

    Set in France in 1889, the film follows the life of Dodin Bouffant as a chef living with his personal cook and lover Eugénie.

    If there is anything I love more than a food movie/series, it’s a wine one!

    Drops of God was fantastic. My wife and I watch very little together as our tastes are generally different - but we devoured this

    Yeah that was a good watch, went to the movies to see that with the girl and had absolutely no idea what to expect. Absolutely bizarre really but definitely entertaining.

    Watched Shaft again, the remake. Peak Sam L Jackson, such a great tonic to today's woke movies. 10 Juniors out of 10 capped Drug Kingpins

    Christian Bale and Jeffrey Wright are magnificent in this too.

    Ridiculously high body count too considering he's investigating one guy who killed another guy.

    I thought I saw Christian Bale! Which guy was he? A henchman?

    Watched the Accountant with Ben Affleck. I never checked to see what it was about, and not being a big Ben fan I never bothered. But it was a really good film. Good story, high body count. 5 black ops ghosts out of 5 misplaced estranged brothers
