"Since the dawn of the silver screen thousands of movies have been made. Some are considered classics, must see movies. The greatest films of all time. What movie that is widely regarded as a masterpiece have you watched and you thought Meh 🫤 I don’t see what the fuss is about?? Gladiator….. bang average in my opinion. " Oh there are so many! Maybe because I watched them after all the hype. Goodfellas and scarface for a start. Ok but 🤷🏽♂️ | |||

"Birdman starring Michael Keaton. Now, I love Keaton normally and this particular film came with a whole slew of five star reviews so I sat my arse down to watch it with high hopes. Alas! Sweet Jesus! ‘Twas a pile of self congratulatory, pretentious drivel, the regretful likes I have seldom seen before or since (nor bloody well wish to!) 😵💫 " Agree. Same as lost in translation.

"This is controversial but I wasn’t exactly enthralled by The Shawshank Redemption. It was certainly well made and the performances were great but I just felt….well…meh 🙁" I often say something is "Shawshank Redemption" in that its good, at times very good but its just not THAT good | |||

"American Hustle: Whilst I did admittedly quite like the ending and I thought that Christian Bale was great in it, I personally found all other aspects of this ‘modern classic’ to be rather….well, frankly shit. Encouraging actors to ad lib their lines throughout an entire film seldom produces good results and even the usually dependable Bradley Cooper’s overacting was especially off putting in my opinion. It’s doubly a shame as the same director along with Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence previously gave us the superb, Silver Linings Playbook which I loved. " Bale and Amy Adams are so good in Hustle but Cooper and Lawrence stink it up with their overacting! Still worth watching for Amy Adams dress though.  | |||

"La La Land. Two boring and unsympathetic characters who can't dance. Deservedly lost the Oscar to Moonlight which is a modern classic." I always felt like it was trying too hard to be an old fashioned classic musical. Failed miserably in my opinion. Glad to know I'm not the only one who hated it! | |||

Coppola's a good early example of what I mentioned earlier- Directors who are also Producers and have no-one to reign in their excesses. Apart from Godfather 1 his best film IMO is The Conversation, a brilliant tight film with Gene Hackman. Tarantino's another one - apart from Reservoir Dogs all his films could easily lose 30 minutes and be better for it ! | |||

Absolutely; Excessive running times are a major bone of contention for me as regards so many modern films. Take the recent, Wicked for instance; Just short of three (interminable!) hours(!!!) - and in this bloated running time, it only managed to tell half the actual story (I can visualise the Hollywood executives greedily rubbing their hands whilst waiting to reap in a ton more dosh from part 2) Sometimes, as the colloquialism goes, ‘less is more.’ | |||
