"The Shape of Water". It reminds me of beauty and the beast and the movie starts off with a woman masturbating to an egg timer and from the point I was wondering what was going on. The movie is well done and reminds me of the old 60's horror movies. Interesting Movie with some great acting. 6.5 out of 10.

"The Post", Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep are outstanding. This is a great movie about the first amendment and President Nixon trying to shutdown revelations about the Vietnam War and keeping the people in the dark. We really enjoyed it. 8 out of 10.

Watching 'Fire Walk with Me', the Twin Peaks prequel before jumping into season 3. It's really quite good, not sure what pissed off audiences so much about it in the 90s except the lack of wrapping up loose ends from the TV show.

I got through "Murder on the Orient Express" and not even with a plethora of quality actors could save this movie. Fell asleep at my first attempt. I am going to download the 70's version to try to erase the latest from my mind. Don't bother unless you wish to sleep. :P

Watched Thor Ragnarok the other night. Really enjoyed it, that Kiwi / Aussie sense of humour really comes through.

Loved the rock bloke with the high pitched Kiwi accent. :lol:

last night watched The Green Hornet. At moments I wanted to reach into the TV and strangle Seth Rogan with his own guts for what he'd done to the character, and other times i quite enjoyed it. :?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

The best part at the cinema was watching the animated 3D hornets come out of the screen at the audience in the closing credits.

Watched the "Cloverfield Paradox", do yourself a favor and don't. You will never get that time back. .5/10

Last night sat down and watched "Only the Brave", a very good movie about US Firefighters called Hot Shots. True Story which culminates in the Yarnell Hill Fire in 2013. 8/10

Blade Runner 2049, was just as slow as the original Blade Runner. It was OK and once Harrison Ford came into it the movie picked up and then it finished. Could have cut an hour out of it. It's watchable if you have nothing better to do.

"Molly's Game" was excellent; Jessica Chastain is really floating my boat lately.
