Big Jake 1971

An excellent but brutal John Wayne film in which his grandson is kidnapped by gangsters and he has to to deliver a ransom to get the grandson back. An excellent ensemble cast with one of Lassie's offspring making an appearance as John Wayne's pet dog. But this dog is as far removed from the friendly image you get from Lassie and no Elizabeth Taylor in sight. The dog here is a reflection of the film you are watching, brutal and vicious with no let up. You think Clint Eastwood Western's are brutal, well here's a John Wayne Western to match.
Like a lot of Wayne films this is a new UK pressing but is it different to the USA one?. A few have been like El Dorado. Be interested if anyone out there can enlighten me if this is a new transfer or the USA packaged for the UK.

Last watched Argo, I thought it was good. Some decent tension and kept you on the edge of your seat!

I never watched it when it first came out for some reason. I have just picked up the HDzeta Edition so I thought it was about time I watched it! Lol!

Killing of the Sacred Deer

Really weird film, but one I enjoyed. Just picked up the digibook from Germany yesterday, so will probably give it a rewatch soon!

Loved it. It was like a hybrid of Kubrick meets Lynch with the Greek tale of Iphigenia turned into a script by Michael Haneke!

I'd probably give it two and a half if I actually used half stars.

Are you trying to say it's half baked?

Isle of Dogs (2018)

Film of the year (so far) for me. Although I still have a lot to check out, so it's not really saying much at this point.

RoboCop (1987)

 

[Lollard2002]

Robocop is an astonishingly brilliant film. So many great scenes, so many quotes "I'm buy that for a dollar!" "Can you fly bobby" "Please put down your weapons you have 20 seconds to comply"

I love the line "programmed for urban pacification"

This all begs the question. What the hell were they thinking doing a remake! The original was perfect......
