Watched Good Time (netflix) which is by same people who did Uncut Gems (Better film). Similar in style, all very NYC, intense situations. It passed a couple of hours. 6/10.

Not been going that long and has over 100 films since the early 90s. Don’t understand how he could do that many.

What a film mate! I love Michael Mann films, this is one of his best. Legitimately an argument for this being Tom cruises best performance imo.

A Man Called Ove. Swedish movie about a miserable bloke who has pretty much given up on life. It's a sort of dark comedy which really comes to life when it flashes back to his earlier life and marriage. Maybe a bit predictable but some touching moments and quite life affirming in the end. 7/10
Supposedly Tom Hanks is going to direct and star in an English language version. Probably never happen but interesting to compare if it does.

For some I love the scene where Cruises character is staring incredulously at a Coyote. Excellent film.

I'll certainly do that.

That scene was a total fluke. I read an interview with Michael Mann where they were packing up shooting for the day and the coyote wandered in front of the camera so they just filmed it. It’s a great shot.

Great fact, cheers.

It almost seems to be good to true to be a fluke as he couldn't have choreographed it any better. Otherwise would have been regarded as a genius filmic moment. Although I suppose his decision to include it renders it as such.

Nice one. It was so obscure I wasn't ever sure if it just me who loved it. Cruise with his 'WTF' face made the scene.

The Mauritanian.
Decent. 7/10
Sea views at Guantanamo Bay looked canny

TBF to Tom Cruise he has decent form for stuff like this, so he'll have been able to react to it in the right way for his character. It's like in Rain Man, the fart in the phone box scene was an accident, Dustin Hoffman actually farted and they both stayed in character to react to it.
Either way. Collateral is a tremendous film and that's possibly Tom Cruise's best performance

Promising young woman. 6.5/10
cracking stuff from mulligan, she’s up with Rosamind pike as the very best at the moment.
film itself was decent, revenge thriller with a twist. Not sure if it’s best dim worthy for the oscars like, but mulligan certainly is.
