    @Kruse gots to be bad if you dont even give a TW rating, although being Neeson, I expect zero anyway.

    Neeson does have along way to go to reach Eric Roberts status as a movie legend/slut.

    He never will though cos unlike Roberts Neeson at least USED to be great.

    Eric Roberts found his niche from day one and stuck to it.

    Actually Eric Roberts was nominated for an Academy Award way back in the day.

    Yeah but he didn’t win

    …..and then found that niche I was talking about !

    I've never heard of that one. Is it a cinema release or streamer only?

    Horizon Line

    This is the dumbest movie I can remember watching. The F&F franchise is a slavish adherent to physics and a high water mark of script writing in comparison.

    The bit where the boyfriend climbs out of the plane, makes his way to the nose and fixes a fuel line leak with duct tape as it flies isn't the most ridiculous part.

    Everyone involved should front the Hague to answer for this crime.

    65

    I actually quite like Kylo Ren Adam Driver as an actor…..or maybe it just seems that way in comparison to the other shithouse characters the last three SW movies introduced.

    Anyway, this sounded quite intriguing……but was shit. Fuck all dialogue ( due to him and the young girl speaking different languages ) and pointless dinosaur chases that we’ve seen a million times already in Jurassic Park. How the hell did they go so far back in time ?

    Absolute crapola.

    The most recent Liam Neeson embarrassment

    If I see his name in any film, I simply ignore it. Why does an actor of his ability do this shit?

    Dead Solid Perfect (1988)

    Pretty good movie about the PGA Tour made by HBO from a well regarded novel. Has a dumb twist near the end, but very enjoyable overall. Randy Quaid has a pretty good swing. Only available on youtube.

    EDIT: I guess it is age restricted because there is a perfect pair of tits.

    thanks to a heatwave and a hangover i actually just stayed inside and watched movies yesterday. And in my quest for dumb action movies i don't have to think about while i stuff my mouth with junk food i chose

    Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre
    Fuck i admire how Jason Statham does not deviate one iota out of his lane. The same character no matter what the movie is called. Make a deadpan wise crack, punch a guy in the throat. collect cheque.
    This movie is dumb, and that's what gives it the charm. Hugh Grant appears to love hamming it up as a "villain". Was entertained

    Bullet Train
    Now this was good. Again, dumb. But entertaining. Stupid characters everywhere. Some funny shit. Some fucking hilariously gory deaths.
    And now i see the Director has given us some of the most fun action movies of the last few years. Good work that man.

    Tit watch: Zero in total for both. I mean, there's barely an adult female in Bullet Train.

    Not entirely true, in Lock Stock and Snatch he did all of the above except punch anyone in the throat.

    I guess in those two he was merging into the lane that he has stayed in ever since.

    @mariner4life fuck you are so right about Statham. I watched both of the Meg movies with my 10 year old boy and he was just classic Statham in both, which was heaps of fun to watch with the boy.

    There's a Stath movie I remember where he wasn't full Stath, can't remember what it was called but it was a period piece and it involved pics of Princess Margaret.

    Ah fuck, I'll look it up. The Bank Job.

    That was quite good. It had Saffron Burrows in it, the chick from the shark film

    Yawn. Just don't watch, it's not a genre you're forced to watch. I don't watch horrors and don't listen to yacht rock 😉 because I'm not forced to.
