Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom 8.5/10
Well this was a pleasant surprise for me. From the trailer I got the impression that it wasn't going to be big on story and just a dinosaur action romp but I was wrong. There is a real story here with depth and continues the overall moral quandaries from JP1. It isn't the nostalgia fest Jurassic World was but it still has many nods to the original, some comedic moments and some intense emotional scenes. I loved it and think it is a very well balanced film. The music and special effects were excellent and this is definitely a cinema worthy film. It is a shame we have had so many blockbusters in such a short period of time because imho this should be released in July during the summer holidays and it would be huge.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Solo: 7/10
I wasnt expecting this to be a classic, and it wasnt - however, it was a good, solid, entertaining sci-fi film.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Skyscraper: 6.5/10
I haven't given 6.5/10 because it is a bad film, it is just your average predictable cheesy Hollywood action film and is on par with something like 2012 and San Andreas. There were a couple of things which niggled at my realism factor at the beginning of the film which shouldn't have happened but they didn't influence the main story so I let them go. The action and special effects were great if not exaggerated but the one thing which did annoy me is that there is a particular scene you saw in the trailer which they completely changed in the film and I can only assume they did it to expedite the start of the film and get straight to the disaster. I love the technology of the building though and the whole concept and you would wonder if they are working on something like it now.
I wouldn't spend money on going to see this at the cinema but it is definitely worth a watch and your typical Sunday afternoon entertaining film.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
can't ever go to those type of movies expecting realism or a good script. They are purely all about the action and excitement. I love a good popcorn flick, go in and disengage brain.
Remember though that trailers are there to get you interested in the movie and will frequently feature clips out of context or scenes that may not make it to the final cut.
I will see it next week.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Skyscraper - 5/10
Meh, as already said, it's acceptable if you can switch off and just let it flow with the Hollywood clichés. Dwayne Johnson needs to be careful though in accepting any old crap for roles. Can go the same way as Jason Statham pretty quickly.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Mission Impossible: Fallout 7.5/10
I really enjoyed it, it was a great action film and I love how with each new film the stories and plot twists continue to improve and get more elaborate. I think was No. 6 and I would gladly see them go up to 10 or something. I gave it 7.5/10 because whilst the action scenes were great and there were plenty of moments when you cringe/squirm/say "oh shit" when something happens, it didn't blow me away or have any sort of emotional impact on me which some other films do. Well worth a watch at the cinema though.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Ant-man and the Wasp: 7/10
Another solid and good Marvel film and was similar to Spiderman in a way where they steered away from the grandiose bad guy from the first one and dealt with more personal real life issues. It had many comical moments but I didn't feel it was as funny as the first one or other Marvel films but it more than made up for it in other ways though. The novel environments they are in when they are miniaturised and the way they interact with them is excellent and fun to see and the action scenes are excellent. I absolutely love Evangeline Lily (Katie from Lost) and seeing her gorgeous smile is what made the film for me .
Important note: there are 2 post credit scenes. The first one is a direct tie in to Infinity War and an absolute must see otherwise you won't understand what is going on. The second is funny but easily passable if you don't want to wait till the end/want to leave.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
The Equalizer 2: 3.5/10
I have got to say that this is probably going to be my biggest disappointment this year. I was really looking forward to this but it doesn't deliver in any regard at all. It isn't as good as the first one, the story is weaker and lacks substance and depth and the film is poorly edited to the extent that during the first third of the film when they are setting things up you are scratching your head trying to work out what they are trying to get at. It is a shame because the first one just got more tense and engrossing as time went on whereas with this one I just wanted it to end and it kept going on and on.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Interestingly, you're not the only one to say the same, it's a shame, as the first was v good.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
I think this was made purely so Denzel can kick some more butt.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
Leave No Trace 8/10. Slow but good film. Watch but only if you have the patience for it as it doesn't 'pay off' or step up that much.
