Worth a watch, then?
There's a 4 min audio clip online. I typed in 'collymore rooney' on Google and it came up. And yea def worth a listen.
I've just caught on what's happened.
Carol - Absolutely fecking sublime! Mara and Blanchett were wonderful- 10/10
The Martian - Really liked it. Funny and interesting with great visuals. Think it's fair to say Scott is a bit of a genius.
Agree with you about Jaws. But there was one jump scare for me:
When the guy was swimming and entering the broken boat and a shark came out of nowhere
Not a genius. Just very clever and very driven.
Generally speaking, jump scares have ruined horror movies.
I am so pumped for this.
His more recent stuff doesn't plead in his favour, but Alien and Blade Runner were works of a visionary director.
Alien was the first horror movie with a strong female lead.
Ooh nearly.

How does Psycho have a 'strong' female lead? She gets murdered half way through the film.
Best movie I've seen this year!
Anyone seen Our Times? Recommended?

Perhaps he meant Norman's mum.
Saw a trio of films set in the 50s recently, which I would rank 1) Carol 2) Bridge of Spies and 3) Brooklyn

Reported for transphobia.
To the police.
Bridge of Spies - A decent Spielbergian affair where Tom Hanks plays Tom Hanks doing something heroic.
Going out tomorrow night and can't decide whether to go to,
Carol, Bridge of Spies or Black Mass.
anyone seen all 3? Recommendations?

Seen Black Mass and Carol. Both are good but Carol is waaaayyy better!
It wad fairly good. Suffered from Speilbergs need to make things patriotic as shit. Also felt a bit too PG and it seemed the film wasn't too sure what it wanted to be.
Inherant Vice - More like incoherant vice. The acting was fantastic, as was the atmosphere and even the general level of film-makingHowever, the story telling was all over the place. Anderson may hay have gone for complex, but he's ended up with a bit complicated almost to the point where your mind is semi-fixated in most scenes on where the hell does this fit into the whole story? Disappointing because it could have been truly brilliant. Going with 6/10 and 2 of those points are just for Joaquin Phoenix and Josh Brolin's performances which were brilliant, and deserved better story-telling.
This is on Sky at the moment and I'm in two minds about watching it. Quite odd really, considering I willingly sat through Jupiter Ascending.
It's not easy going. Totally agree with amol's take on it, some excellent stuff (mainly the acting), but the story is all over the place and overall it feels like a bit of a waste.
Today's crime/dramas somehow cannot touch the 90's crime movies.
Might continue to avoid it, but I know it'll get me one day.
The story is meant to be all over the place though.
I don't think it's particularly incoherent.
I've only seen Black Mass but it's really shit, so I'd avoid that one
Yea, PTA tried to pull of a The Big Sleep/The Big Lebowski
But did you feel he pulled it off? That's the vibe I got, but it lacked something to pull it all together I felt. Felt very disjointed, not in a good way.
I really wanted to like it. A good ending may have made me like it. It was just really slow. Then the ending so anti climatic. It could've been one or the other, as the acting and some of the scenes (such as Depp going at that guy giving away his family secret recipe), but the fact it was both it ended up a disappointment.
Nah, it was too long and too disjointed. Still enjoyed it tho.
It captures the vibe of the book very well. The incoherence is part of the vibe but if you apply standard plot expectations to it, it doesn't work.
Vibe.
