The Jerk is a classic movie. I loved it when his African American parents told him he was adopted after 20 years and he starts crying and says "so I'm going to be this colour forever" lol


It's a beauty, just a piss funny movie.

Indeed. It's got everything - 'Shithead' the dog, the opti-grab spectacles, and the scourge of cat-juggling.

BlackKKlansman.

Equal parts comedy-drama with a strong nod to 70s blaxploitation films and sobering commentary on current race relations in the US.

Deadpool 2

A lot of the jokes were pretty obvious, but it was a decent watch.

Unintentionally watched Cindarella Man again the other night. Top movie with some excellent acting performances. Find that era of the great depression a really fascinating time.

Saw it a few weeks back now but Jimmy Barnes Working Class Boy was very good. I really wanted to see it given dad loved him and watched lots of Cold Chisel/Jimmy Barnes docos, interviews and footage over the years.

A great insight into his early life in Glasgow and then Adelaide, in particular growing up in Elizabeth. I learnt quite a few things about him that I didn't know, would of been nice to hear about him living around the Port and about perfoming at the Largs Pier (Where my dad first saw him) when he talked about the start of Cold Chisel but the doco was mainly about his childhood, had a very rough life in Glasgow and Elizabeth. If you're a fan of Jimmy it is definitely worth watching.

Caught a Flick on the weekend called American made. Based on a true story Tom Cruise plays the role of Barry Seal in the early 80's during the Contra affair. Hawing not known much about the events of the day, I found it really interesting and Tom Cruise was excellent, as he usually it is it must be said (not that I ever go out of my way to watch his movies). Really enjoyable flick, more than happy to recommend this one.

Saw A Star is Born on Monday, it was meh but Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga were sensational.
Saw Bohemian Rhapsody today, absolutely brilliant!
Was expecting it to be great and it was better than expected.
If you have a chance go see it.

Bohemian Rhapsody is the best thing I have seen in years. Cinematic masterclass. Simply phenomenal.

Haven’t heard a bad word about it and can’t imagine anyone not liking it.

My best mate is an absolute Queen officionado, and even though she loved the film, she was picking out the "errors" on the way through :lol:

Watched the Dark Knight again for the first time in ages... That is hands down the best Superhero film of all time. Heath Ledger was sensational...
