Archive - very enjoyable underrated low budget movie. Its like a bit of Chapie,Moon, exMachina, Oblivion and Transendance in one movie with excellent design and some good plot twists. The ending is a bit abrupt but still thoroughly enjoyable. Very underrated. good cinematography. Dialogue is OK too. 7.5/10

Volition - anothet underrated low budget movie. Really enjoyed watching since nothing much on lately. A bit like edge of tomorrow and the butterfly effect , but on a smaller scale. 7/10

currently watching

Season 1 Star Wars The Madalorian. Episode 1 is very good. 7.5/10 so far...will keep watching but I highly recommend it so far...

Operation Avalanche - Great low budget movie about "conspiracy" moon landing, made doco style . It's abit like that doco style spoof French movie that claims Kubrick helped fake Moon landing . 7.5/10

I sort of in the English version of the Airplane/Police Squad style from the early 80's. Action movies like the best movies in youtube

Raised by wolves: just started watching. Ridley scott makes brilliant tv series that will remind you of Prometheus and Covenantt movie.
9/10 so far.

Lovecraft Country : JJ Abrams. very good. Has some reminder of scenes from the original Predators movie. Set in the time of apartheid in US. One scene reminded me of Evil Dead. Very entertaining. 8/10

Also watching
The Boys Season 2: So far very good. Definitely worth watching. Bad Superheros and good Villians. 8/10

Coma - Russian movie. Good CGI and great concept but the dialogue was a bit boring for me.

Tesla - if you ignore the karaoke scene it is good, if you like Ethan Hawke. 6.5/10 worth watching if nothing else is on.

The big ugly - Ron Perleman and Vinnie jones in an OK gangster movie . worth watch if nothing else on. 6.5/10

Tax Collector- I liked the movie. But the ending was a bit empty. 7/10 .Always liked Shia Lebeouf

Sputnik - fell asleep watching so dont bother. 3/10

Old Guard - big actors like Charlize Theron in a movie that could have been great but wasn't great. Dialogue wasn't great. 5/10

the bay of silence : mamy plot twists strange thriller. worth watching . Brian Cox is always good. 6.5/10

Money Plane - worst movie this year. just dont bother. 1/10

- 10/10: Perfection - I would give this rating to "Knives Out", its a comedy but a brilliant one, very complex, someone dies and you need to find the killer but pretty much everyone in the victims family are suspects so yeah.

My favourite movie is Fight Club. I love the Marla Singer quotes. Unparalleled heroine of the film. Marla Singer was a strong-willed woman who came across as being a complete nutcase. Marla was named after a school bully who Chuck Palahniuk knew in grade school.In the movie, she was played by Actress Helena Bonham Carter. She used to steal food from delivery vans and clothing from laundromats to survive. She once attempted suicide by swallowing a bottle of Xanax. After watching this film, I started writing out quotes from interesting characters. Thanks to this website, https://quoters.info/character/marla-singer , this has become much easier. It's a very unusual hobby, because once I started doing it, I started watching movies more carefully.

Wonder woman 84: total waste of time ribbish. Nonsensical story. Boring. Some scenes completely pointless and boring makes you wish when will this be over. ilogical and the story is just ridiculous. Not funny. Just bad acting also. Complete waste of time. bad cgi and bad effects. dont believe the fake 10/10 imdb reviews. I give it a 1/10. Worst movie last 5 years easily. Even Green Lantern was better.

I am generally a very sensitive person, so if I watch a drama with some sad story, there is a high probability that I may cry. And especially if the story of the film is about animals. This is generally my weakness. I recently watched the movie "Marley and I" and it really impressed me. I was so imbued with this film. The actors played their roles so vitally that it seemed to me as if everything was happening for real, as if everything was happening to me. The film shows love, true love, man's love for man, man's love for an animal - a strong, friendly seed. Of course, the film is predictable and the ending seemed clear to me at first, but how hard it is to lose a faithful friend, emotions flooded over me in full swing and at the end of the film I cried for a long time.

My favorite movie is Love Actually (2003). I recently watched it again. The script had already been forgotten over time, but when I reviewed it, I remembered almost everything. The film is very enjoyable. It tells us that love does not depend on status, on age, maybe to the same sex, maybe not reciprocal, maybe "for work", maybe in different languages. But it is all-consuming, creative, and without it there is no meaning in life. I would like to mention the role of Hugh Grant, I remember her the most in this film. And also pity Harry's husband, who was deceived. But ... life is life, and everything is shown in the film, so diverse, really occurs in reality, often evoking emotions "cannot be".

    Some of you may have heard of the IMDb Top 250 Challenge, whereby you watch every movie on the list within a year. I've decided to do something similar, as a way to ensure that i am amply entertained over the coming months. I'm pretty certain i've seen most of what is on the list at present, but it'll be fun to watch the movies that i haven't, but should have seen. So that's what i am going to do!

    To make it easier i've Excel'ed the list and printed a copy to make it easy ticking off the movies as i go. First i have to go through the list and mark off the ones i've already seen, and find out how many there are yet to see.

    I've attached the list in case anybody else wants to make use of it.

    Edit: Been having a play at the IMDb quiz's found on the Top 250 Page. They're pretty good fun!
