I watched The Intern the other day.

I don't know exactly what I was expecting, but it turned out to be quite a wholesome film. Not the kind of role I'm used to seeing Bobby De Niro play, but fair dinkum that bloke can act.

That is a great movie.

I think I've seen it twice and I can agree it ticks a few boxes for me. A commentary on ageism, a great acting performance and a well made film.

Anyone enjoy 'As Good as it Gets' ?
I rated it and it made it on to my rewatched list.

Add in Any Given Sunday too!

8. The Replacements

10. Coach Carter

Also, just want to shout out these two films.

I need to watch The Replacements again, I reckon it's seriously underrated. Gene Hackman is such a fucking legend too.

And Coach Carter - Samuel L. knocks this shit right out of the park. It's an awesome flick that looks at real life issues.

I didn't care for it.

Quite a list and a few of them I've definitely already viewed. Thanks. I must say I enjoyed Dark Waters although it felt like it had been done before. Erin Brokovich. The Rainmaker. A Civil Action.

Seen All The Presidents Men, top show, they don't seem to make movies like that these days, get a hold of The Natural mate, I reckon you will enjoy it, good story line, has a great cast, Wikipedia gives a good run down on the plot

If you're into redford, another i liked (though will admit to not having watched it for a looong time, so could be lame as shit) is 3 Days of the Condor.
Typical spy thriller from back in the day, it was recently redone as a series, which i did enjoy

I concur on The Natural, great movie

Second viewing makes a lot more sense.

Crap movie but that's just me. I probably am completely wrong but it was a waste of my time. No doubt it had some great parts but I have no idea what or where they were.

I’m a massive Nolan fan but I didn’t love it either. I also can’t bring myself to watch it again because the first hour was just so boring.

The two stand out scenes were the car chase and the reverse protagonist fight scene. Both of those scenes were marvellously shot but I just feel it was a James Bond movie with a bit of time weirdness thrown in.

Don't know if anyone here is into the DC/Marvel movies but if you are save 2.5 hours and don't bother with Wonder Woman 1984.

I have 'discovered' the Critical Drinker on YouTube and he fucking gave it to WW84!

This guy is funny, satirical, intelligent and offensive . In short, perfect.

His dismantling of Star Trek discovery and Picard is funny as hell and so so on the money about this pc garbage world we now endure.

He certainly was no fan of Wonder What!
