I thought the film itself was above average to good, but that fight with Bellew at the end is fucking incredible. Maybe one of my favourite scenes in a film of recent years.
Itās better than most of the Rocky films.
The first one is the best. Rocky Balboa (the film) recreates the heart of that movie. I like the other movies, but theyāve all got major problems. Creed came through the mix without them.
Absolutely Anything. Simon Pegg remakes another version of every film heās ever made on a budget of Ā£50 & without Nick Frost.
In Nickās place are the Monty Python crew totally wasted along with Robin Williams in voice overs & Eddie Izzard in a repetitive single joke.
It is woeful pretentious crap that might have ripped off 50 people at the cinema.
And yet we couldnāt help ourselves. We chortled at the banal silliness of the thing.
Donāt pay to watch it, but if youāve had a couple of beers it will be a fuck of a lot more fun than watching Strictly. Stupid but enjoyably silly.
Worth a watch for Kate Beckinsale shagging a Corgiā¦
Watched Sicario last night. Lovely to look at (Ted). I give it 4 stars.
edit: this is a good mark. I give most films D-.

So the Goatboy film reviewing standard uses both stars and grades?

Eventually got around to watching Captain America: Civil War over the weekend and I must admit it was a load of old tosh, canāt say I really enjoyed it. Yeah the fights and special effects are decent but the premise and story line are bollox.
Definitely a 5 out of 10 for me

The Lobster (on Netflix). Weird, arty shit that is quite entertaining. Kind of how I imagine Bearsy runs his sex life.
Watched Eye in the Sky - Helen Mirren and Alan Rickman in his last film (RIP). Surprisingly gripping account of those who pilot and decide on the use of drones and accompanying missles when deployed in populated areas. Also the huge risks taken by local undercover agents and the amazing technology that British Military cash can buy.
More surprising was that almost the entire film was based around a single sighting of a terrorist group. Not the most stretching role for Rickman but well worth a watch.

Watched it a few weeks ago too. Pretty decent, but yes one of those movies that you have to āSuspend your disbeliefā to relax and enjoy it. Iām not an expert, but iām pretty sure even the CIA havenāt developed fly cameras yet
Just googled it and they are in prototype development stage Ted, but not close to being finalised yet. The film used these development models as inspiration apparently. The rest of the Tech stuff in the film, of which there is plenty, is real and in full and frequent usage.
Thanks Bucks, thereās a couple of flies in my bedroom now iām suspicious about.

This scene is set up by a season worth of stuff but is just brilliant.
Itās TV not film I know 
The scene I think your talking about is recorded by one camera in one take.
I havenāt seen it but the fight scenes are great 
Iāve just watched this for the second time and reckon youāre a bit of a miserable bast on this review.
Motivations made sense first to last. Consistent with the tone of the earlier films. Some brilliant little touches of humour that the DC films lack, and yet, out of all of Marvelās movies, this seems closest in tone to Empire Strikes Back. The movie resolves its own mystery, but leaves a lot of the people normally termed heroes in a very dodgy place.
Love the part where Falcon and Winter Soldier are chortling like schoolboys at Capās goodbye to Agent 13. I also love Ant Man in this movie; heās a total fanboy. The airport scene is probs the best sequence that Marvel have managed to get on the screen.
