Very amateur Slasher
Stumbled across this on Amazon low budget UK slasher film that tries to capture the 80's Horror vibe. Obviously influenced by Friday the 13th mainly. Some of the ideas are OK, the score was good and Killer mask wasn't bad. Unfortunately as with most basic budget films the execution is poor. Bad acting, poor almost non-existent plot, cheap effects really make it one to miss.

Odd comedy
Spotted this comedy on Sky cinema and gave it a go as the UK cast were quite well known. Sadly it's just not that funny. Very few laughs at all, a shame given the cast involved from so many other funny films and TV shows. Towards the end it got quite serious which really didn't fit well with the rest of film. One to skip.

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Old (2021) in Movies
Oct 29, 2021 (Updated Nov 2, 2021)
I have to say that the new movie, OLD, from M Night Shyamalan, had me intrigued when I first saw the trailer for it a while back so when the film finally had its release here in the UK on Friday (23rd July) I had to check it out at my local Cineworld.
If you are a dedicated follower/fan of Shyamalan then this is going to be a film that you will want to see on the big screen, don’t expect lots of action or any action at all in this movie it’s a slow-burning mystery/drama that keeps you guessing.

Dean (6921 KP) rated Get the Gringo (2012) in Movies
Feb 10, 2018
Known as "How I spent my summer Vacation" in the UK?! A strange and quirky film set in a Mexican prison, which feels more like a mini city full of bad guys. This didn't get much hype, and I didn't know what to expect which possibly made me like it a bit more. It feels a bit gritty and rough around the edges compared to a lot of Mel Gibson's films, but it was still a decent watch if nothing spectacular. Reminded me of Payback a little.

Crazy true story
The story is so silly you couldn't make it up, but it's actually true. I think I remember it on the news even here in the UK at time vaguely. Based on true events as Tonya Harding is looking to make the Olympic figure skating team. However her husband takes drastic measures to help her.
It's an interesting story with some oddball characters. Margot Robbie is very good. Enjoyable but not a film I would watch over and over.
