Geminee? The fact that this pronunciation bothered me so much suggests that not everything is as good as it should've been. If the rest of the film had lived up to my expectations would I have even noticed? Apparently the pronunciation is kind of accurate (but still wrong). There's a lot that's great, the time jumps beautifully edited without any need for explanation at the start of the film. sbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00364732402983753250noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18091627.post-17570317716968554572018-10-15T21:59:00.001+01:002018-10-15T21:59:17.954+01:00My #LIFF2018 PlanAll the films I'm planning on seeing at the 2018 Leeds International Film Festival.

Realise I'm very late to this but Madonna is a bit good isn't she? Hope she's not at Glastonbury next year (because I haven't got a ticket).

So much of American Animals feels fresh and original, but unfortunately it all slows down far too much around the actual heist.

Sitting through all of this was a bit of a slog but it was also fascinating. Seeing thing such as aspect ratio and the technology change over the years was expected but seeing how similar and familiar the stars are portrayed came as more of a surprise.

It feels like I've been waiting at least a year to watch this but it was worth the wait. Completely charming, surprisingly moving and life affirming. It's a shame it loses it way a little towards the end but it's still a wonderful meandering journey.

Undeniably a film for the moment, it may be too heavy handed in places but really this is no time for subtlety. I wish the story had a stronger ending before the film's powerful climax.

The trailer for this film left me with a feeling that it could be something I really loved. I knew nothing else about it before or since seeing that trailer but I was still a little apprehensive that it couldn’t live up to my own hype. I needn’t have worried because it’s a wonderful film that worked so well for me in so many different ways. It may just be a personal thing (but isn’t every sbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00364732402983753250noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18091627.post-46553412557514004902018-08-08T21:19:00.001+01:002018-08-08T21:19:44.692+01:00Ant-Man and the Wasp, 2018 - ★★★★
It may not quite be up to the high standard of the early-Pixar-like-pantheon recent run of Marvel films (Spider-man - Infinity Wars) but it is a huge (and tiny) amount of fun. In many ways it's a shame that there isn't really much of a plot because all of the characters are so great.
Also has there never been a video game with the shrinking/growing mechanic, because there really should be.

Before watching these Laurel & Hardy films on Talking Pictures TV I think I'd only ever seen them in the cinema and with live music. I'm beginning to wonder how much that adds to the overall experience because watching them at home I'm just not getting into them the same way and this is considered one of their best. It may also be something to do with them talking.
