Dean (6927 KP) rated CHIPS (2017) in Movies

Good stunts (1 more)
Quite funny
Surprisingly good
I thought the worst when I first saw this film was being made about the 70's cop show. I never saw the TV series but often these films are a let down.
So it was a nice surprise this was actually quite funny, had some good action scenes and felt like it had a decent budget. Nothing amazing but good enough for a nights viewing. Starring and Directed by Dax Shepard with a role for his wife Kristen Bell as well.

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Widows (2018) in Movies
Nov 21, 2018
Widows (2018) is the movie Ocean's 8 wants to be when it grows up. #Review
With the pedigree of talent behind and in front of the camera, you’d be forgiven for expecting “Widows” to be something very special. And you’d be right, too. Director Steve McQueen, sharing screenwriting duties with Gillian Flynn (“Gone Girl”) in adapting a 1983 British TV series by Lynda La Plante, creates a polished, compellingly multi-layered ensemble drama; the female-led heist movie “Ocean’s 8” wants to be when it grows up...

Surprising
Amazing! Good to see M Night back on track.
It's good to see M Night (not butchering his last name here!) back on track with the dark and suspense filled Split. I couldn't keep my eyes off of it and I'm usually the sort of person doing 40 things at once while "watching" a movie or tv series.
It lacked the massive twist expected from M Night but it was better this way and I was pleased to discover the sequel coming out this year.

After seeing an advert for Smashbomb on my Facebook news feed, I was intrigued to download the app. I love reading, watching films and playing games, as well as writing so this really screamed out to me. My partner and I now use this site to make decisions on what TV series we should watch next or what game we should next buy. Furthermore, I love the fact that you can enter giveaways. There are some really cool things on there - here's hoping I get chosen for some!

David McK (3600 KP) rated Sharpe's Challenge (2007) in Movies
Dec 10, 2019
2-part TV movie that takes, as it's basis, the earlier-set (India) but later-written of Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe series of books.
As the actors have aged somewhat since the 90s, this has to take a few liberties with the plot (and covers several of those earlier books), such as setting this after the Battle of Waterloo instead of in the late 1790s, and by replacing Sergeant Hakeswill with another such like character: unfortunately, as there's no real history between that character and Sharpe, the animosity between the two characters never really sits right.
