What is the last movie you saw? and rate it.

I saw Victor Frankenstein, the new take on the old story with Daniel Radcliffe and James McAvoy. McAvoy, of whom I am generally a fan, overacted his way through this evening constitutional as the the title character. Daniel Radcliffe was impressive enough, I've come to discover he's actually rather good in his post-Potter life (see Horns if you haven't.) Jessica Brown Findley is loveliness itself, and Andrew Scott was his characteristic self. Not all bad, but ultimately leading nowhere and tedious. Too little of Jessica and too much of James McAvoy vying for Ham of the Year.

Deadpool, I enjoyed it a lot

The Clouds of Sils Maria. Very meta, I gather. I loved it, being a fan of Kristen Stewart (who won a Cesar for her trouble) and Juliette Binoche.

Meant to ask you if this includes Scarlett Johansson's rear end?

Watched Solace last week and liked it. Anthony Hopkins was great and so was Colin Farrel. 7/10

Harry and the Hendersons: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/harr...he_hendersons/

This is an old movie from the 20th century, but entertaining. It was the best Bigfoot movie I've ever seen as well as the only Bigfoot movie I've ever seen unless those Messing with Sasquatch ads count as movies. I know Rotten Tomatoes thought it was rotten.

Score: 9/10

I enjoyed it very much.
Score: 9/10

The trailer looked interesting. I'll see if I can find Macadam Stores / Asphalte in the library.

I've been having a hard time trying to find a movie I can tolerate finishing. This is unusual for me since I can sit through most anything. However, one movie I was able to finish, "Not Another Teen Movie": http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/not_another_teen_movie/

Rotten Tomatoes thought it stunk, but what do they know? I give it a 10/10. Get the uncensored director's cut.

My wife sent me a YouTube clip of Rudolph Nurejev in Swan Lake. If you like ballet, and especially if you don't, this might be worth three minutes of your time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHbGqJ_MonU

I give that a score of 10/10.

LOL The "pig" dances wonderfully! 10/10 for the pig and 10/10 for Nurejev.
I hope you find and enjoy Asphalte. End of times relationships with drama and humour.

I saw Captain America: Civil War, probably the best Avengers movie, if Loki had been there it would have been perfect...

Black Panther was brilliant, easily the best part of the movie

Taken from a celebrated stage play, this British film concerns the poisoning of the wealthy wife of a village school teacher in Victorian England and the quest by a Scotland Yard police inspector to uncover which of three suspects, who all stood to gain from the deceased's will, administered the poison. The director skillfully keeps one guessing by showing that each suspect was equally likely to have been the murderer only to subsequently sow doubt in the viewer's mind.
The ending has a twist that shows not only who killed the victim but why, and it has nothing to do with money.

9/10

I have started watching Sherlock ( TV Series). It's quite good.

Also watched X-Men: Days of Future Past and liked it. I really enjoyed the scene where Quickslive shows off his powers.

Jennifer Jones, who must surely have been one of the most beautiful women ever, gives a good performance as a gypsy girl in 19th century England.
The famed partnership of Powell and Pressburger, who produced a number of outstanding films, should have avoided this one however, for the wild gypsy girl is pursued by a rampant Squire: the very stuff of Victorian melodrama and reminiscent of a Barbara Cartland bodice ripper.
The camerawork and scenery are outstanding but the plot leaves much to be desired.

At 71 minutes duration this film has been made by the vote to leave the European Union side of the forthcoming UK referendum.
It's a compelling series of grounds for getting out of what is a ragbag of internationalist wishful thinking, working principally for an axis of power centered on Berlin and Brussels.
The film shows how EU restrictive trade practices keeps Europe from acting in its best interest, but perhaps the biggest eye-opener is the sheer size of the bureaucracy and the salaries that are paid to those running it. According to the film, 10,000 EU personnel earn more than the UK Prime Minister, with all kinds of additional perks added to their salaries. This massive bureaucracy has impoverished large parts of southern Europe to the benefit of the north: principally Germany.
The film also gives the lie to the idea that the UK would lose trade by leaving. The UK already does far more trade with the rest of the world than with the EU and imports more from Europe than it exports.
UKIP notwithstanding, it defies belief how anyone, who wasn't in on this costly racket, would vote to remain after seeing this film.

10/10

I just saw Brexit the Movie. I didn't realize that Switzerland was not part of the EU. This was very informative overall. Score 10/10.
