Will pass. Thanks.
Dev as a John Wick character is Oscar worthy acting though fair play.

@Kruse said in Movie review thread...:
Just watched all the Daniel Craig era Bond movies over the course of 6 days. (Had to take an evening off for the Taranaki Beer Festival.)
- Ana de Armas is fucking hot
Hot but overrated.
Only the 4th or 5th hottest of the Craig era.

@MN5 I actually know the Oppenheimer story pretty well and enough of the science to follow it easily and I had exactly the same reaction. Glaciers are melting faster than this plot advances. It's well-crafted but it screams "Look at me, I'm Oscar worthy".
I turned it off halfway through with the intent of watching the rest, but haven't yet and probably won't.
5 Neutrons out of 5 Hydrogens for tittle watch though

Oppenheimer review.
Blokes talking on a movie built for Academy voters. Very well made film, strong script, well shot. Interesting, but not one I'd go to rewatch and would be very careful of recommending - need the right headspace to get into it.
Four neutrons out of five nuclei
-
I'd add Oppenheimer is also geared towards people with attention span of greater than five minutes.
The raindrops to nuclear armageddon transition was pure, visual cinema. It even reminded Robert Downey how to act instead of mug.
I'll rewatch it at home, because I suspect the impact without the wall of sound and large screen will be greatly reduced. Definitely one to watch in a cinema.

Mrs Womble is away for work so im re watching the Hobbit movies whilst washing rugby jerseys
hadn;t watched them since the cinema, obviously not LotR...but better than i remember, i think the biggest critic still stand...could have been an AWESOME two movies.....rather than a drawn out three movies....dont get me wrong....you get the feeling theyre on an epic journey....but i think 2001 Peter Jackson would have cut more stuff
-
Oh man they were so bad, I have watched the fan super cut of one long movie which was OK. But I am a total nerd, have watched LotR dozens of times, read the books many dozens along with the History and other books. But never got past half way through second movie, only the second movie for 20 years I haven't finished (along with Wonderwoman)

lots of people would describe the same way....i even had a presence on a LotR forum for a number of years
obviously not an accurate reflection of the book as so much was added from other sources or just made up...and originally had a very similar reaction to watching them in the cinema (only film i can remember not finishing was the expendables)...but finding them much more watchable than i expected -
@Kiwiwomble Yeah it wasn't the lore, but things like the CGI scenes when this bumbling group of dwarves are escaping capture by running along the narrow bridges, and goblins are literally flying off like a bow wave
-
@Machpants fair enough, its obviously noticeable but suspend belief for these films anyway so easy to just move past
my only real grib is the pacing...LotR has 3-4 stories at different times after the fellowship broke up...and that worked for 3 films...but following the same group with only gandalf off on little adventures...just makes it drag a bit....would love to see a sydner cut from peter jacks down to two movies...you could carve out the escape form the goblins...and the barrels easily as both are quite long scenes...and Beorn
