    Zero Dark Thirty.

    Disgusted at myself that it took me this long to watch it. Superb. Well crafted, engrossing story and pretty well real (as far as Hollywood goes). Well worth a watch. Confronting, but in a good way I think.

    Four and a half UBL out of Five CIA agents.

    Have you watched Point Break from the same director? Outstanding.

    I had to double take as I didn't think that would ever be a serious question...

    I had to think long and hard about it, and concluded that the PB comment was bait. But I did not realise she directed it so that's why I commented. Besides, I wasn't triggered by it

    One of my very favourites

    After the whole John Wick fiasco, I shall approach this movie with serious scepticism.

    @nzzp I got pretty pumped/emotional when the 7/7 bus drove past my old Russell Sq building and corner store (Budvar and good pistachio nuts) in it.

    @MajorRage Wiig is a personal favourite of mine. She’s so bloody funny and oddly hot.

    Absolutely. A part of me says that he wouldn't have been on board unless it stood test of time

    The director is the same guy who directed Galaxy Quest so hopefully that is a good sign.

    That should put pay to the "Keanu doesn't age" argument.

    @antipodean The first thing I noticed too. Keanu looked older than he did in John Wick 3. Maybe it's because we have been used to the beard.

    Probably accentuated by the fact they have styled him to look like the teenage Ted (or Bill)
