      Great to hear your review, Mike @Filthy, as I know you're a fan.  I'm looking forward to it, now!

        I could go in to greater detail about why I liked the movie so much. But I don't want to spoil it for anybody. So I was vague about it. Thanks @sabergirl

          Thanks for the heads up @Filthy,  I didn't even know there was a new Predator movie out.

            We stopped listening to reviews a while ago. We've been steered towards "good" movies that bored the shit out of us, and "bad" movies that were a lot of fun.

            I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                I just saw the new Predator movie and it was amazing. For a big time comic book nerd the movie was fantastic. It was very gory and very funny. The most interesting thing about the movie is that the kid in the movie is on the Autism spectrum (like me) and he helps save the day. Don't believe the lukewarm reviews… the movie is great. Also, Olivia Munn is probably the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.

                @Filthy you do realise that being on the spectrum means that Predators are going to be after you now? 😃

                I'm autistic too, so liked the kid, and the sentiment that we're the next step of human evolution. 😛

                I enjoyed the film. It's pretty mindless and violent throughout, and I love Shane Black's dialogue. But it did feel a bit choppy in parts, as though scenes have been edited out.

                And, "Get to the choppers!" 😃

                  The entire 3rd act was pretty rough. They had to reshoot it at the very last minute.

                    Finally got around to seeing this and wasn't very impressed. I really like Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch but this one just fell flat.

                            I liked it too. Great cast.

                            Maybe so. Maybe not

                              Well there you go. I was deeply dissapointed and found it lacked the style, class and humour of Snatch and Lock, Stock, both of which I love.

                                Yeah, it’s not as good as those two but, I found it fun and passed the time quite well. And, as a North American, I wasn’t used to seeing Gerard Butler, Idris Elba, Tom Hardy and Thandie Newton in these kind of roles. (Mark Strong being Mark Strong in a Guy Ritchie film helped, too.)

                                I also enjoyed Revolver, though…

                                    My feelings too. It felt recycled but not in a good way.

                                      Cary Fukunaga to direct next Bond film.

                                      Pretty excited about this. I really liked True Detective, so it'll be interesting to see what he brings to the Bond universe.

                                        Not great but not terrible. I typically like Tom Cruise’s films regardless of the subject matter. I don’t see him doing too many biopics either so it was a nice departure from his usual action/sci-fi films.

                                          Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom - 6/10

                                          Overall I think the Jurassic Park/World movies are mindless fun but one recurring theme that always pops up with these types of films is the overwhelming stupidity of the characters, and it annoys me to no end. Case in point, a character that needlessly screams or yells and attracts the attention of whichever dino pops up.

                                            Wasn’t great but wasn’t completely terrible either. Same as the new Jurassic World movie where it just went through the motions. Pretty average as far as SW movies go.
