i'm really starting to suspect that Michael Bey has no concept of storytelling or in keeping with coherent characters.
Pain and Gain, and 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi had more coherent plots and characters than the Transformers flicks.
I caught the new Kingsman film last weekend. It's mindless fun, but not as good as the original. The Statesman characters do get some cool threads (in particular the Mister Freedom jacket), and Elton John's extended cameo is great.
I'm looking forward to Blade Runner 2049 next week. The Guardian's review is very positive. Melbourne IMAX is going to give me a free ticket for my birthday, which is next weekend, so I'll be going along to see it on an enormous screen.

So looking forward to seeing it too…it has a hard act to follow though but the trailers and reviews do indeed seem promising. Enjoy Graeme

Kingsman The Golden Circle was a fun way to turn my brain off for two hours. I appreciated they weren't too obnoxious about product placement (as opposed to how the Transformers movies do it). Kingsman has a line with Art of Shaving right now, and if you didn't know in advance, you wouldn't have caught the product placement.
That being said, the new scent that they have with the shaving line really does smell great. Bought a couple sets before I even saw the movie.

Victoria & Abdul is well worth a viewing. Me and Jules really enjoyed the experience [emoji106]

Wonder Woman: 8/10
Pretty decent for a DC film. I liked that we finally get to see a female super hero lead and that she was an absolute badass.

Hell or High Water was great and Sicario s a must see. I may be late the party but these are my favorite recent movies.

I thought Sicario was excellent but thought Hell or High Water was kinda meh. It felt like it was trying to be No Country For Old Men except substitute 1 guy stealing drug money with 2 guys robbing banks. Jeff Bridges seemed like he was channeling his Deputy Cogburn character from True Grit.

Sicario was indeed a better film. i really enjoyed the locations that they filmed in for Hell' parts of this big country ill likely never see. as for Jeff Bridges i thought he killed it. i don't liken it to NCFOM.. in a good or bad way. I think West Texas was the only thing in common in the films. Plus Josh Brolins character in NCFOM was foolish, selfish and kept making stupid mistakes. Chris Pine and Ben Foster were sticking it to the man. IMO

Guardians of the Galaxy 2: 8/10
I enjoyed it. Drax was the highlight for me as I thought he brought a lot of laughs to the story. "My turds are famously huge."

Cool. I've heard nothing but good things about it and the trailer looks bad ass.

Killing Gunther is very amusing.

If the barista is Arnold Schwarzenegger…..you won't be disappointed.
