David McK (3632 KP) rated Memphis Belle (1990) in Movies
Nov 8, 2020
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.

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated 7 Days In Entebbe (2018) in Movies
Sep 25, 2019
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.

David McK (3632 KP) rated Maleficent (2014) in Movies
Jun 9, 2020
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.
