@Victor-Meldrew A who's who of British violent character actors. I found it quite entertaining. There was a sequel called We Still Steal the Old Way. Similar in vein (as you would expect) but not quite as rounded as the original. Still worth a look though.

Hard blloke holding Sten gun: "Have you seen one of these before? Trust me, it'll fucking hurt if I pull the trigger..."

@Victor-Meldrew it ain't a classic but it is what it says on the tin and does its job.

@Victor-Meldrew was that the sequel or the first? I think I remember two of them? Cant remember if any were any good though

Nice to see something that is not a sequel or an existing franchise. He's turned this up to 11.

"I don't want no trouble"---obviously nobody in Star Wars ever watches Westerns.

I previously thought his greatest movie line was “you’re a big man but you’re out of shape and for me it’s a full time job” from Get Carter
that wasn't Caine's greatest line that was Sly's to Caine, I thought.
One of us is definitely having memory trouble! -
The sequel was "We Still Steal the Old Way" - not as good IMHO. Both are fun films, don't set out to be high art but have some great set-pieces.

New Michael Mann:
In Ferrari, Adam Driver Is a Force of Steel and Death
Michael Mann’s long-gestating movie is elegant and restless, with a sense throughout that something horrific is lurking around each corner.

Paul Schrader's Affliction (1997).
Hadn't seen it since it was originally released in NZ (1998 or 1999?). Absolutely devastating, and the performances were great. Sissy Spacek was maybe overlooked, but she was so good in this. A true shame that there has been no blu-ray release.
Nolte was overlooked for the Oscar for ... Roberto Benigni.
5/5

Loved it

Couldn't get cute, would have given the game away

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
Nazis, Mads Mikklesen, time travel, re-discovered tombs, Harrison Ford playing a Grumpy Old Man. What's not to like? Really enjoyed this - great popcorn movie. Only complaint was the Short Round sidekick character which really didn't work.

Pitch Perfect 2.
Not seen 1, daughter watched, thought it would be shit so swerved. But I was tired last night so watched the sequel.
Laughed. My. Ass. Off. Honestly it’s really funny, so many stupid moments and good lines. Rebel Wilson is just the wrong side of annoying / funny but the script saves her.
4 split trousers out of 5 German techno groups.
Real sleeper this one for me

If you’re giving this such a great score then how do you rate the original trilogy ?

First 3 were great 5/5.
Crystal Skull stank a bit. 3.5/5.
