The flashbacks and flash forwards were a little too frequent. I loved the Pentagon  scene. And the callback to first class was great, even though I didn't think much of the film.

X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877832/reference
A good looking action flick...
but I just did not believe it
6/10

WHAT its not real  . off to bed in shock

Spoiler (hover to show)

but with these ending, it allows the producers to make more film;s with characters who have died, look at star trek

X-men 3 brought back a character at the end, can't remember if it was a clone or if the character just regenerated from being atomized. If it was the second I wouldn't mind a trip to his doctor. Unfortunately, Dr. Moira MacTaggert is fictional.

Two Step. Solid first-time Indie film.

I need to watch Blood Simple again but this one reminded me of it (it's been 30 years!) to check why. Probably the slow build up and the atmosphere.

Sicario 2015
enjoyable, brutal, worth a watch. Benicio del Toro as his moody self

Legend 2015
surprisingly good, T.Hardy played both of the brothers with gusto.

The Hateful Eight 2015/6
Overly long, predictably unpradictable, S.L.Jackson acts as in most of his films, K.Russel is good
he needs to make a film NOT typically Tarrantino

Creed (2015)

Too much boring romance and not enough boxing. 3/10

[xtopave]

Sicario 2015
enjoyable, brutal, worth a watch. Benicio del Toro as his moody self

Worst of the movie: The main character=the female character. She always looks out-of-place, naive, unprofessional, and even completely lost. An FBI agent that doesn't have a clue how the world of narcos works?! Ridiculous. The rest is really good.

I watched Philomena (2013). Pretty good. Not the story I expected.

The Revenant (2015) 5.5/10



It's a remake of the 1971 film Man in the Wilderness.



Been there, saw that.

Hateful 8 was pretty good. I kind of always like quertino films.

The Revenant (2015) 5.5/10

It's a remake of the 1971 film Man in the Wilderness.

Been there, saw that.

Not quite, 1971 film was a excellent film of that age, The Revenant is more of this age and technology.
The scenery was stunning, story was more vicious. Leonardo received a globe for his acting and what a ending NOT TYPICALLY Hollywood for a change only let down for me was Tom Hardy's accent, hard to understand at times(as per Lawless). I enjoyed it and await the blue ray release 8/10.

I watched Pontypool last night as it has some decent reviews for a movie of that kind.

All I can say is that not only was the director on something quite potent, but apparently a lot of people who reviewed it are too.

On IMDB it suggests that it's budget was $1.5mil, but it only returned revenue of $3700?  Shades of a Max Bialystock venture, methinks.

suffragette 2015
A Hollywood style movie that needed the grittiness of a film 4 release.
Disappointing film in many ways, So sad as I did look forward to watching this release

IMDb: Bone Tomahawk (2015)
Unsure what direction the film was suppose to be shot as,gritty western/arty Western. I suspect neither did the director. 

IMDb: No Escape (2015)
What a waste of time watching this film.

unsure what to watch now

IMDb: The Danish girl 2015
Thought provoking, disturbing at times excellent movie. Shame the film is so close after his Oscar winning performance in 2015. IMHO should be a Oscar winner with a strong supporting cast. But I doubt he will win the Oscar
