Apparently based on a true story as well, mate.
Honestly, when I first heard it was starring Steve Coogan, playing the role of an Englishman who had adopted a penguin, I legitimately thought it was going to be an English re-make of this Jim Carrey film
:
It just goes to show, never judge a book by its cover, or in this case, a film movie poster!

Felt like I was watching a cut scene in a game a lot of the time. Otherwise was an unexpected comedy.

There's a 4k upscale available which has gotten decent reviews. Fan led, unofficial. Haven't gotten round to watching it yet

because I was searching certain pics for the star wars thread, I was comparing the death star generals scene with the prisoners talking scene in alien3.
I ended up reading this.
'Alien 3': Ralph Brown shares chaotic experience on David Fincher’s troubled sequel
They say in space, no one can hear you scream but on the set of Alien 3 — which turns 30 this week — every complaint and barely-concealed gripe was deafening.
“We got to see David’s cut in a Pinewood screening room and it was basically the version we’d filmed. That film was a masterpiece in my eyes,” says Brown. “It was creepy, existentially horrific, empty and scary but there was a desire for life inside it. We saw the premiere a year later and it wasn’t the same film at all.”
An ‘Assembly Cut’ designed to restore Fincher’s vision was finally released in 2003 and despite all the chaos, fans still regard the movie more fondly than reviews might suggest."
I don't know what he was thinking trying to get E Grant crowbarred into this film, he tends to bring quite a lot of camp ham to proceedings, I mean, Alien as a horror comedy is definitely an avenue unexplored. Maybe even a musical.

The John Wick films are better than this rubbish in every way.
I only watched the first couple of John Wicks there on the plane to and from the US. Wonderful nonsense.

I can do you one better, mate.
Do you ever remember this load of rubbish:
And it had a decent cast as well: Clive Owen, Paul Giamatti and Monica Bellucci. Don't understand that one.
For the reason of : the waste of Tom Hardy.
The film was that poor, they could`ve saved a bundle of money and just got Jason Statham to do it.
Same end result, a dreadful film.

They wouldn't have been able to...
The Ja-man was busy filming this movie at the same time, which if you haven't seen yet, is just slightly better than 'The Beekeeper', which means you can pretty much give it a miss.
It could even work as a Rom-Com, if you really wanted it too...

Statham, Hardy & Connell all done well for themselves.
Fixed. Such as shame as it had the chance to be great but the story and script were written by an imbecile or bad AI. Nobody, starring Odenkirk, is the best John Wick film.
