Has an old-school, uncomplicated feel to it - if you liked John Wick, you'll enjoy this.

Underworld: Blood Wars (216) - 3.5/10

It's terrible and apart from the stupidly fast pace, silly dialogue and the B look of it they do the worst thing a movie can do - It takes advantage of your intelligence.

For example, wtf didn't those lycans just shoot holes into the cavern from the outside instead of first barging into the building?

...maybe I just wasn't in the mood.

Nope you are spot on. The movies felt like the directors and actors were like "Meh, I'm bored, lets shoot another underworld".

Rogue One

Splutters in the first act but comes alive after and was a very different star wars movies. It's nowhere near perfect but definitely worth a watch. 8/10

I loved it. The story was by far superior to Force Awakens and can stand by itself no problem. The tie in to A New Hope was very well done.

Pretty good watch. Slightly longer than it needs to me & some confusing moments in the middle that get wrapped up in the end. Based on the early high reviews was expecting something a notch better but still a good watch nevertheless.

Snowden. 2/10. And that's being generous.
Completely inaccurate and made up. What a waste of time. Someone needs to jfk oliver stone already.

Train to Busan, man oh man I enjoyed that. Wish Hollywood would take some notes. Excellent zombie drama. 8.5/10

More of the same from the Langdon series. Everyone is so dumb except him. I had a splinter in my foot when I watched it, so was more occupied with that...but didn't miss much as it's become brainless

David Brent: Life On The Road. 10/10

I am biased as I love Rickey Gervais and his own style of comedy.
