These years? Did you already know the ending?
Funny thing Pm is I’ve had it for years on DVD , but watched it on Netflix and the other funny thing is I nearly turned it off when I saw it was Stephen King at the start. No I didn’t know the end , actually knew nothing about it except it had one all the awards , while I was watching it the young bloke came in and told me bits that happened because he had seen it on family guy :D. Great movie definite top 10 for me

It's one of those long movies that you keep postponing....."oh not now, haven't got the time...later, later"

Great film.

Finally got to see The Disaster Artist and loved. Read the book it was based on a few weeks ago.

Just watched it today - excellent film. What's the book like cause the books tend to be better than the film.

I am still feeling uneasy so the film has had an effect on me.

The film followed the book pretty well. For me the main difference waas that in the book Greg almost hated everything about Tommy.

"Holiday roooo-oooo-oooad, holiday roooo-oooo-oooad..." ;D

Current remake of that film is, as usual, complete garbage.

The remake was of Vacation not Christmas vacation.

I watched Christmas again with the girl and wife the other day and i realised Christmas wasnt that funny (apart from U ncle Eddie!)

I know. Only Vacation and European Vacation are funny. Christmas and Vegas weren't.

One film where my eyes lit up already (maybe due to about 1,000 promos today on the ESPN channel.....geez, every 10 minutes :hihi) is 'All the money in the world'.

As it's about a true story of a selfish tight-arse, whoever's seen it already, can anyone tell me if the plot is based more on drama than crime?

The Jumanji reboot was a lot better than I thought it would be. Great escapist fun & reminded me of some adventure movies of times past.

Agree. Went with the kids expecting to have a good nap but ended up enjoying the movie. The Rock is turning into this generation's Stallone / Arnie, but is actually a better actor than the other two.

The Grearest Showman wasn’t as good as I thought it’d be.

2 songs were ok but they mostly all had a sameness about them.

And making a movie about being different and how we should embrace it but then have non disabled people made up with disabilities. And the one person of short statue had all his scenes where walked CGI’d! Bizarre.

Saw Snitch the other day, thought he was pretty good in that. His said to be a very good human being

I, Tonya is great. Margot Robbie is superb as Harding, Allison Janney is even better as the mum.

That and Three Billboards probably the two best of the season IMO. (Haven't seen Molly's Game or The Post.)

I like Johnson, have for years. Personally felt Jack Black kind of stole the show from him in Jumanji.
