Wednesday film time. 2 in 2 days isnt shabby isnt it. Unfortunately as i need to catch up on Unbreakable for Glass on friday, i wont be making it 4 in 4 just 4 in 3. Shame oh well.
I am lowering the average age in the cinema for this. No offence to older people, but im lowering it to 50 i recon. The next youngest people in here are my parents age. Mid to late 50’s at best as the lowest next age. Im sure one couple looked down at me a little like whys she here. Also most of them had premier seats, check them out spending their pensions.
Trailers were for Boy Erased, Mary Queen of Scots, Beautiful Boy, Green Book, Vice & Fighting with my Family (not as good a reaction to that as it was the day before). All of the trailers were met with down trodden comments about all of the films. Properly upperty lot this audience is.
& then the film started… Hmmmm well there were some good bits but it was just all a little dull honestly.
Thank god for Dominc West, thats all i can say really. He was a properly disgraceful slime ball who you despised every single second he was on that screen. An adulating bastard, & conniving steeling twat. He acted his arse off & i think thats one of the best performances i have seen him give in years, if ever. Just brilliant.
Its a shame noone else got the memo really to go for it in this film. Everyone else was just going through the motions like oh we will do something slightly period & old-fashioned & see if we get any awards buzz. No way pepe.
It was all set in france which is fair enough, but why when they spoke in english did they write in French? Proper bug bear that be brave enough to do it all in one & not divvy between them.
The arguments & monologues which were some huge parts of this film & were meant to inspire & be yes go for it were just met with silence or like they were being muffled at a brick wall not shouting it off the top of a mountain. Go for it people dont just be half way about it.
& the shocking racy or saucy bits there were supposed to be just weren’t. I know for at the time they may have been, but dont sell it with that & then not deliver. Im not saying we need it to be full on & horrific, but the sex was more shocking in the favourite (omg im praising that awful film for something).
Overall dull uneventful & hasnt really helped anyone out. Just a drab boring film, that at least kept me out of the house for a couple of hours. ITs nothing to write home about & i will probably forgot i’ve seen this film in about a week.
