Gravity.......absolute borefest and amazingly then won an Oscar
Independence Day was reasonably popular when it came out and Avatar was successful and even nominated for best picture. The popular consensus of Phantom Menace was that it was an absolute steaming heap of shit. Mind you, there are people who defend the prequels now but I put that down to some kind of mental delusion.
Enemy at the Gates - a war film for girls.
I think the defending the prequels was just done as another way to attack the latest ones. Personally it boggles my mind that anyone could have written scripts as bad as the prequels and then been allowed to film them without someone pointing out how terrible they are.
Agree with this. It was a good film made from an interesting angle but like you said, it just didn`t convey the scale of the whole event or the chaos surrounding it. I likened it to a few people queuing up at an ice cream van at the beach. There was very little contact with the Germans either and felt it was a little too arty to be a great war film.
I haven't seen 1917 but Dunkirk just looked like a cold day at Scarborough, terrible...1917, well made but boring.
Dunkirk, well made but didn't get the sheer scale of it for me, looked more like a couple of coachloads of the beaches.
I think parts of SW III are decent. SW II almost unbearable and SW I marginally better.
On the flip side I think Solo and Rogue 1 got far too much hate. Quite like both of them.I agree some of the action scenes are decent. The acting and dialogue is, without fail, abysmal in all three.

No Country for Old men
Apocalypse now. Give me Platoon over that anytime.
This is an example of when everyone at least quite likes a film and no one really thinks it's shit, which generates this weight of mass opinion. It puts it ahead, especially on things like IMDb and so on, of films that a lot of people absolutely love but others didn't get on with
Shut your whore mouth.
Well into gangster bollocks but none of The Godfather fillums do it for me.

Is it over-hyped? Barely seems to get a mention in conversations these days.
Thought both were very disappointing, especially 1917. With todays technology it was an excellent opportunity to depict the sheer scale and violence of the First World War, but some how skirted around it, and contained some very school boy acting.1917, well made but boring.

Enjoyed the pod btw, watching Blow Out tonight.
