    Jackie 7/10

    Good film good acting ... may not be everyones cup of tea given it's a kinda biography about her experience with JFK through his murder and thereafter.

    Put this on recently via Exodus... subsequently discovered that someone at Exodus made a bad mistake and linked this rather than this

    Health warning: If you happen to turn on a film called Split which has anything to do with bowling in it, turn the thing off immediately as otherwise, you'll be just kissing away part of your life for no good reason.

    Collateral Beauty
    Good story, well played parts etc. 7.5/10

    Bad Santa 2
    If you like the first one, you'll like the second one... personally, I did: 7/10

    Hacksaw Ridge, Nocturnal Animals and Manchester by the Sea...all very different but all good, particularly Manchester.
    However it is VERY slow and at over 2 hours long , you really feel it, so it wont be for everyone.
    A Monster Calls was ok but pretty dark for a PG rated movie.
    Thought Dr. Strange was the worst movie I've seen in years but I am not a Marvel fan (although I liked the Iron Man and early XMen movies) so if you are in to Marvel, it's probably fine.

    Captain Fantastic 7.5/10
    - didn't think I'd like it, but was plesantly surprised....

    The Shallows 7/10
    - decent movie, but there will always only be one killer shark in my mind and his name was Jaws ;)

    Watched Catch Me If You Can the other day, cracking film.

    Di Caprio and Hanks don't do many bad films do they?

    Wall to wall action and killings, decent watch if into non-stop action. I'd give it 6/10

    The Last Arcade - Arcades are great and this film highlighted that

    The Fundamentals of Caring - Rudd, Roberts and Gomez in one film what more could you ask for! Very moving and surprisingly funny

    Raving Iran - I just want to go for a little rave now. Excellent story.
