Movie Rating
Drama based in the last flight of the B-52 bomber Memphis Belle, whose crew have survived 24 missions deep into enemy territory during World War 2 and are now about to embark in their final mission and become the first crew to survive a full tour of duty.

This ticks all the boxes expected from such a film; much better in the air (and in the cramped confines of the bomber) than on the ground.

"Me and my girlfriend couldn’t get this song out of our heads for a whole flight to New York. All we knew was the riff. When we landed, I ended up playing the melody on the piano and sending it as a voice note to my pals, asking ‘What the fuck is this song?’ I just knew it was a vaguely cheesy dance thing from the early 2000s that would have been on an Ibiza Creamfields-type compilation."

"This reminds me of a bad moment, but an important moment - and I just love this song so much. I was just coming back from the 2016 Olympics in Rio when Blonde dropped, and I downloaded it as fast as I could for the flight back. I was in a really bad place [missed out on a medal], but it's such a beautiful song and brings me such emotion. It really helped me in that way."

7 Days In Entebbe  (2018)
7 Days In Entebbe (2018)

Inspired by the true events of the 1976 hijacking of an Air France flight en route from Tel Aviv to Paris, and the most daring rescue mission ever attempted.



This is a tricky one for me. There's no denying that it was a interesting, and that if felt well made. But it wasn't really for me. The fact that there were so many well known faces in it made it difficult to concentrate on the story.

Despite an intriguing premise - basically, Sleeping Beauty from the Evil Fairy's point of view - and Angelina Jolie (with cheekbones so sharp you could cut yourself) in the lead as Maleficent - said evil Fairy Queen - this is a somewhat insipid retelling of the tale, that just (ironically) never really takes flight at all.

Maybe worth a watch (Jolie is always good value for money) on occasion, but not one that I'd be rushing back to re-watch.
