Lone Survivor and Patriot's Day are both excellent if you like a bit of Mark Wahlberg and a true story, particularly LS.

Lone survivor was ok, there was 8-12? taliban actually attacked them, the Taliban filmed the attack and the actually footage is on YouTube.

Just watched that tonight, enjoyed it...very good
Soft & Quiet
Bit of a festival darling earlier in the year. The premise had me. I’ve been dying to see this, and for the first half of a brief 1hr 38, I loved it. Awkward, tense uncomfortable discussions and falsities between a bunch of likeminded “neo nazi wannabe housewives”.
Then, and I should’ve known it being Blumhouse, they clearly felt the movie needed a destination. They were wrong. Very.
The one take shot (which apparently took 4 days to film) was done ok, if needless as it added nowt whatsoever.
Hats off to everyone for the first half. I’d give it a perfect 10/10 if that had continued. As it is, 5/10. Yip, it went that bad.

they actually used the only good bit of the film in the trailer and poster. Seen it all before, much better, was f***ing shite. And the smile was just a gimmick barely used overall avoid like the plague. Watch It Follows instead.

Pray to the devil..exorcism movie not to bad 8/ 10 decent acting
The Thing - Still stands as one of the best sci-fi horrors around, actually watched it to confirm to myself it is - 8.5/10
The Abyss - The stepping stone to T2 in regards special effects, sits below Aliens and T2 from JC's prime (IMO), still a good outing, the directors cut can seem long, but once it heats up, time fly's - 7.75/10

Enjoyed it, not a massive improvement on the original really but did like it more, the final battle led me to google.
While the German General is fictional, they included him as some Generals did intentionally carry out "glory" battles in the hours between signing the peace treaty and the actual Armistice hoping to be the man that won the final battle of the war. Over ten thousand casualties of which nearly three thousand died so some upper class toffs could have a cool anecdote when they got home.
Pray for the devil is what you are talking about, Pray to the devil is a slightly different film.

1900 (Novocento), cracking film when you have a spare five or so hours.
In these days of binging boxsets it should be a piece of cake.
Follows two men (De Niro and Depardieu) born in the same small town in 1900 Italy and runs through to the end of WW2.
De Niro born into wealth and Depardieu born into poverty.
(Italian with English subs).

No idea why it’s taken me about 12yrs to watch this brilliant film just how good is DiCaprio

The thing is excellent . Have you seen the prequel one from 2011? Not as good but tells the story of what happened prior to the dog escaping which you see in the original open credits . Must have been a straight to dvd as I didn't even know it existed
