Samuel Fuller's White Dog, based on the Romain Gary book.
I liked the movie more than the book. Rock'n'Roll High School too, which was fun from start to finish. An Allan Arkush movie with the Ramones. Mary Woronov was in it too. |

I’m not sure why I was expecting this to be less than stellar — maybe because it was ignored by awards for the most part — but Knives Out was actually a crackling good film.
Nicely played, paced and developed. A beautiful homage to Agatha Christie. Smart and simple and fun. ![]() |

That was a great watch. I'm not one for whodunnits either. Took me a little bit to get used to Daniel Craig dragging that accent around like a seal's arse, mind.

Yeah, same. I really like Daniel Craig, and that accent was unexpected to say the least. But it kinda grew on me, as did Daniel Craig playing a different kind of heroic character. I really fucking liked this movie and it was just a pleasure to watch. Stacked cast, too, everyone just nailed it. Michael Shannon being mildly menacing? Easy. Don Johnson being a prick? Yeah! Girl fro Blade Runner being adorable and complicated despite the relative simplicity of the character? Ding ding. And Chris Evans being a Fucking DICK and still totally likable? Great stuff man. So glad I watched. OH, Darius from Atlanta too! |

Not sure I've read anything bad about Knives Out, if I'm being honest, though I also haven't sought the feedback out. Just moments in passing online.

Knives Out was super fun and very entertaining.

Danger: Diabolik!
If it can't be believed, let's not try to make it believable. Highly more enjoyable than James Bond movies, visually stunning. |

Uhhh, wasn’t the whole thing that Kevin Costner had no accent in Prince of Thieves? Like literally everyone had a British accent except for him, which I assume is because he simply refused and said “I’m Kevin Costner and it’s 1990, I’m basically god.” *shrug* |

This was very good and haunting.
The director, Bennett Miller, is a real talent. I haven’t seen “Capote” yet, but now I will. ![]() |

It is an enjoyable movie. I was really sceptical when I heard they'd cast Gary Oldman as Smiley but he does a fine job in a role that's still pretty much defined by Alec Guinness in the BBC serialisation from the 70s, which I can't recommend highly enough. ![]() |
