After watching Napoleon it's good to see R Scott has got into comedy. I thought he's Robin Hood was bad. Truly an awful film.

The Great Escaper, Michael Caine - Nice film but nothing great. Glenda Jackson was very good as Caine's characters wife, she passed away not too long after the film was finished.

20 Days in Mariupol... one of the bravest bits of documentary film making I have ever seen on the screen...certainly not for the faint hearted... oh yeah dont get me wrong there will be the usual handful on here using the Ivan narrative of fake news... film sets... actors... amputee actors etc..
Will see Napoleon this week... reviews are split down the middle so will take it with a pinch of historical bullshit chucked in.... popped down to the National Army museum at Chelsea last week... great day out... if waterloo.is your thing... as it is with me.... to see Marengo (Boneys horse) , Wellingtons coat worn at Waterloo... along with pictons top hat that got shot off in the battle and the surgical saw that lopped off Uxbridges leg... well... thought all my Nspoleonic dreams had came true at once...

Looking forward to the remake of Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers who also made the excellent The Witch.

Saw Napoleon.
I didn't realise he personally led a cavalry charge at Waterloo, hacking down Redcoats left and right.....
Honestly the most Hollywood thing ever. I was fuming.

Its an absolute classic.

Manuel - fell under the radar for me until recently. I'd put it on a par with Get Carter (not the Stallone one!)

Zico - Blimey, first time you have seen that?? Utter classic. Think most have seen it.
I watched My Cousin Vinny, not sure if I watched it originally, not side splitting funny, but very good, Pesci was superb, just one year before Goodfellas.

An old one but has anyone seen Dead Man's Shoes (2004)? Saw it for the first time on Ch 4 catch up last night and bloody hell it's a brutal ride.

Anyone seen Saltburn?
Personally loved it even though I thought it was quite obvious what was going on so that the big reveal at the end (no, not that one!) was unnecessary.
Had strong Stephen Poliakoff vibes. The acting was fantastic, Barry Keoghan has a bright future and will probably be the leading light of his generation and Rosamund Pike was terrific as always.
Can imagine many will think that it's pretentious twaddle, which of course it is, but that's the beauty of it....

I seem to remember years ago you got a short film (almost like a support act) first, then adverts for other films, then Pearl and bloody Dean for god knows how long so we were probably in there for hours even though the film was only and hour and a half. Imagine watching Ben Hur on a hard seat! I think it was Ricky Gervais who said Leonardo Di Caprio went to the Premiere of The Irishman and by the time it finished his date was too old for him!

In Switzerland they always have an intermission in the film regardless of length and virtually everyone goes out to buy drinks and snacks

To be fair I do agree regarding the cinema. Its been so long since I last went to the flicks that I dont necessarily associate film watching with going to the cinema as when I watch a film its almost exclusively going to be at home on my sofa which lends itself to being more comfortable when watching a longer film.

I'm not against long films, as long as I'm enjoying it of course. I went to see the last MI film at the cinema and wasn't too agitated, but give me a 90-100 min film any day. Watching a long film a home shouldn't be a problem though, as you can watch it at your own steam (if watching alone) and that's what I do.

Jim. Back and forward story, yes.
I think 90 minutes in a cinema is enough unless you have an INTERMISSION.
At home you can just pause for an extra beer.

BRANDED, the Ciro di Marzio back story? if so, yes a brilliant piece of film making.
Must admit I buck the trend on this thread in that I like films to be longer. I dont think you can get deep enough in to a story within 90mins to 2hrs, thats obviously providing its a story worth telling. I think the explosion of box sets in recent yrs has altered appetite for longer films. You get used to immersing yourself in a story and the characters that a 2hr film just feels shallow at times.

90 mins is the optimal movie length for me, 2 hours at a push.
It's going to have to be a really good movie to make me want to sit down for any longer to watch it.

Chim - That's what I have noticed watching these old Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films again. I think the longest was Hound of the Baskervilles done by 20th Century Fox which is 80 minutes. The films done by Universal were anything from an hour to a little longer. Didn't remember they were all short and sweet but you don't get bored. Waiting for Oppenheimer to come out on platform because my bladder would mean I'd miss half of it at the cinema!!
