finally got round to watching White Boy Rick. Really liked it. Some good, understated performances. It is good to see a 'gangster' film that focuses on the relationships rather than the dark, negative side, or glorified violence. The soundtrack was great too, great old rare groove and hip hop, and Max Richter.

Monos… What an astounding piece of cinema. The use of audio and visual, the sense of not being able to second guess which direction the plot will go next, even though there is a clear narrative.
@den1mhead it's a challenging but rewarding film. Check out the trailer, or Mark Kermode review and maybe give it a go.

We got around to watching Takeshi Miike's Hari Kiri last night. Sublime story telling and film making. Recommended.
It's been a long time since I've watched one of his films or Japanese cinema generally. I've missed it.

Mother! Amazing film. Very overwhelming on the senses at times, and has so many layers. The cast are all fantastic, and the use of the house and various relationships as metaphors are brilliant.
@den1mhead can't recommend this one enough. It definitely gone into my top 10 films.

Cheers buddy for the recommendation and I can say that we have seen Mother twice and I reflect your words entirely

True Story of the Kelly Gang. I've waited an age for this to see release, and it was worth the wait.
Quite a visionary director who used artistic license to some degree, but there are some great performances, cinematography is great, and it is very true to historical events.
When I was a kid I visited family in Australia, and saw a Ned Kelly exhibition that had his armour. I've been fascinated ever since. It's not surprising that the outlaw Mindset persists in parts of Australia to this day.
@den1mhead this might be one for you and Jules. Give the trailer a go…

I am a sucker for those video game and movie steelbooks. I have the Army of Darkness bluray steelbook too. I don't even collect movies or anything.

I wish they still made movies like this. I rented this last night. Highly recommended.
