Project Hail Mary. Amaze, Amaze, Amaze!

Really good, but...not as good as the audiobook.

My sister went yesterday with her hubby and 2 boys, she was saying how good it was.

Didn't know it was out. Really liked the audiobook.

I may even venture to the cinema. It's this, The Oddyssy and Dune 3 that I'm banking on this year. Last year was utter gash.

Resident Evil fan film, obviously not blockbuster quality but it's pretty cool for a fan movie. Has the original Resident Evil 1 cast in it.

Giving Threads it's annual watch. Everyone over 12 should watch it every year.

I concur.

Well worth a trip out IMO

Outcome on Apple TV. It's got a good cast (Keanu, Cameron Diaz etc.); don't be tempted, it's a tedious non-event of a movie. Soooo dull.

Apex. Netflix.

Shite, Charlize Theron seeing out her Netflix contract. Though the first few minutes did make my arse pucker up, more than any horror film has done.

Was going to watch that but if it does that to your arse I will give it a pass

Pretty much that and Dune 3 to watch at the cinema.

Punisher One Last Kill.

Er...big fight scene bookended by mental breakdown. No story worth mentioning.

Basically a bit of filler between Daredevil and the next Spider-Man movie but utterly inconsequential and not very interesting. Fight scene is pretty good though, just skip to that bit.

Mortal Kombat II rather enjoyable.

Punisher One Last Kill.

Shame. I quite liked the first one.

I thought it felt like a montage of fight scenes from a canned series. Was completely pointless.

At least they can now say that they tried it, and it wasn't popular, when asked why they don't do a proper series.

Ladies First - not usually my type of thing but it was somewhat amusing. One of those movies you watch once at least. It's on Netflix currently.

The Odyssey is brilliant. Go and watch it. It's not completely faithful to Homer, but it totally works and puts an interesting spin on Odysseus' motivations. And ignore all the anti-woke moaning, it totally doesn't matter.

I failed in my ambition to read it before seeing it - only halfway through. But I'm waiting for a rainy dsy to see it. might be a while

Not new, obvs. But watching Rambo, first blood.

The greatest film ever made.

PTSD
Small town America
The treatment of veterans

It has everything, and just one single death.
