Ad Astra (Brad Pitt, Tommy Lee Jones) was just awful. More Vauxhall Astra than Interstellar. Fails the Bechdel test and the male equivalent, no one says anything interesting to another human. Not even saved by a surprise monkey attack and some spritely Moon pirates. Looked good in places but was severely lacking in the intelligent sci-fi department, which is a major flaw given the billing. It seems this is getting highly rated because everyone likes its star (and producer) Brad Pitt, and they presume him staring into deep space looking morose and quizzical makes this a profound movie - it doesn't.
A huge let-down, considering the talent involved.

A Beautiful Movie

What happens when Matt Damon, George Clooney and, Brad Pitt star in a movie together? You get a awesome casino theft movie with lots of fun parts. The only down side to the movie was that a few parts were a bit slow. I would recommend this to any comedy lovers.

Now is a strong comeback that plays to Twain’s strengths, but it could have done with some more of her feisty, Brad Pitt-skewering self, and fewer inspirational metaphors.

Probably not the film I should be watching during a pandemic . Some of it reminded me of scenes from my local supermarket at the moment. It's not a bad film overall, the action is plentiful and Brad Pitt makes for an engaging lead. Unfortunately the ending is a bit anticlimactic and low key considering the globe trotting nature of most the film.

Brad drives while Leo coughs: The Movie.
350. Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood. A movie that answers the big questions like: What is Brad Pitt's driving skills like? Or, what does Leonardo Dicaprio look like hacking up a lung? They will be answered because a large portion of this three hour long movie is dedicated to just that. Brad Pitt driving by himself listening to the popular tunes of the late 60's, Brad Pitt driving Leo around while Leo hacks up a lung from smoking and drinking, and Brad Pitt driving while flirting with one of the Manson girls he just happens to keep running into... OK with that out of the way, its a really cool movie, cool concept and of course great acting, writing and directing. Has the Tarantino signature, multiple separate storylines coming into one explosive finale... Basically its the story of a down on his luck actor, Rick Dalton, and his stunt double/bestie, Cliff Booth, and as I said earlier, Cliff drives a lot because his bestie Rick has racked up quite a few DUI's so... and at the same time... we have Rick's new neighbors on Cielo Drive, the Polanski's, Sharon Tate coming into her own stardom and enjoying life, and we also have Cliff's solo driving adventures where he picks up a Manson girl hitching and meets the rest of the family on the ranch, all leading up to the events of August 9, 1969. A pretty sweet ride, I think its the least violent of all Tarantino's movies, but don't worry there's a bit of bloodiness thrown in to make you say, 'there it is'! Filmbufftim on FB

Great cast especially the two male leads (1 more)
Great tension builds towards the end
A little long in the run time I felt, but overall a very entertaining film with great performances from Brad Pitt and Christopher Waltz. The second half of the film is better as a plot to assassinate the top Nazi's in one hit slowly unravels with a few twists and turns.

At first, I wasn't sold on Brad Pitt as Achilles. But, after watching this film a few times, I think he really worked. Eric Bana and Orlando Bloom did well as Hector and Paris. Of course the film took liberties with the story, but, what film doesn't? The fight scenes were excellent.

Action packed, intense, memorable characters
Based on Anne rice 1976 novel its focuses on Louis speaking to a reporter about his life. Absolutely one of the best vampire movies of all times Tom cruise and Brad Pitt were incredible actors they could not of picked any better. Exactly what I would expect a vampire to be like weird, action packed, suspense, pain, intense, love. A MUST watch

Third movie this week and the longest movie I've seen this year so far run time of over 3 hours long. Anyway the film its basically a love letter to 1920s hollywood and the beginnings of talkies actors getting used to speaking for the first time in between the partying which takes up the first half hour of the this movie is about Brad Pitts and margot robbies characters and there up and downs in Hollywood and their friendship with Manuel played by Diego calva overall my favourite movie of the year so far
