Arrival-Film Ch4 9.00 last night.

You're spot on.
Watched this sometime ago.
Utter drivel.

Only ever walked out on two Movies in my Life this sh1te was one of them.

Glad someone else has agreed with me, thought i may have missed something deep and meaningful!

What was the other one Acey? One of the worst films i ever paid to see at the cinema was called something about "On the edge" of something, only went to watch it as was advertised with Pink Floyd soundtrack it was wretched, try to find out proper title now.

Think it may have been The Valley(Obscured by clouds).

I made the mistake of watching it a few weeks ago.

A dreadful film, badly made. Dark (as most films are these days, to hide some of the CGI), flawed, slow.... very slow, irritating.

Most films recently are not good.

I was hoping you'd come up with summat good to watch.

I watched McMafia last week.  Most people on here prolly seen it already, but I never got round to watching it when it was first on the BBC.  I thought it was very good.  It's now showing on repeat on Alibi.

Destroyer with Nicole Kidman worth a watch

Good characters, a good plot and generally realistic unlike most of these types of programmes that have ridiculous fantasy plots.

Not a regular filum goer myself last one i went to see was Gravity(only because the wife wanted to see it)
before that it was Gladiator(slowly working my way through the G's)
  But the wife does watch films and says these days you can't make out a word for the mumbling and everything
seems to be shot at night.

I'm glad others cannot understand dialogue these days, I thought I was going deaf.

I actually paid to see this in the cinema.  It was much lauded at the time.

Garbage.

Gravity - there's another one...

I used to like Sci-Fi. Another overrated, slow, poor storyline film

As you say, wit-ham, dialogue is awful, sometimes I put the subtitles on in a bid to decipher the mumbling.

I love sci-fi and especially alien invasion stuff, but never bothered with this as from the trailer it looked pretentious bollox. The fact people ''raved'' about it is usually a bad sign too

The Thing
Predator
Alien
Aliens

Remember struggling through this few months back, pretty much agree with all the above. Very slow.

Alien Covenant... Really enjoyed this.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0VW6sg50Pk

Life.. really enjoyed this also.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNrj70JTMUk

Stew the other one was The Shape Of Water....It only Won The Oscar for best picture ffs.

So you knew it was cr@p, yet you've just watched it again! Get a grip Acey!

Apologies Acey, looks like i misread your initial post, you were forewarning people! Looking in my TV listing mag has CH4 9.00pm last night as Mission Impossible-Rogue Nation?

I went to see Arrival a few years ago based on reviews (it got good reviews at the time) and thought it was utter carap. I`d say a lot of reviewers nowadays are beholden to the big corporations. There`s a particular reviewer that I listen to (only because I`m a fan of a radio show she turns up on) and I`ve learned at my cost that anything she`s positive about is rubbish and her negative reviews are usually decent. Resurrect Barry Norman I say. It all went downhill after he retired.

stew I would rather take a bullet to the head than watch that sh1t again and that is not a joke.
