Couldn't agree more. It's hardly groundbreaking stuff - action scene, plot bit, action, plot twist, action, betrayal, action, action, twist, it wasn't betrayal, big finish - but it's slick, entertaining and Tom Cruise does some amazing stuff.
Extinction. Decent enough Netflix sci-fi...
if you can't see the twist coming from 'kin light years away, you're just not trying.
Thought it was dull tbf

The money pit
If you've bought a house with never ending problems the bit were the bath goes through the ceiling and Tom Hanks starts laughing you'll understand.
Rememory.
Peter Dinklage...great actor
The delinquent season .
I love Irish films but we're cillian Murphy gets seduced how she acted without laughing is beyond me.
It's a good story tbh

Just watched Seven, yeah I know I'm very late on this one, really enjoyed it. Had bits of the Zodiac and Silence Of The Lambs in, the ending was cool, was coming up with all kinds of ideas on what was going to happen while they were in the car but didn't think of that !
Swordfish
Absolute clunker although there's some half decent big action set-pieces. Suffers from that late 90's - early 2000's thing of filmmakers trying to make hacking cinematic and turn it into a fast paced action sequence. Also has a notable scene (No, not the scene with Halle Berry sans top) where Hugh Jackman's elite hacker is supposed to be gobsmacked by a computer with a multi-screen setup!

Amazing film. There are alternate endings, but the one they went with was incredible. Disturbing and gut wrenching. The distributor hated it, they wanted Fincher to change the ending and go with one of the others that were a little less powerful. Im glad he stood his ground.

Avengers Infinity war, 7/10 story line was actually followable and the CGI wasn't as bad as it's been previously.

It`s got elements of Assault on Precinct 13 running through it, plus some great black humour and one liners in it too.
Woods steals the show, with some wild over acting.
I`m surprised he hasn`t done more horror films, as he really does make a great vampire hunter.

Sheryl Lee looks mighty fine in it as well

I wanted to watch Highlander but she had dibs and went for Angels & Demons, thinking that anything with Tom Hanks is a banker.
Crap, but barely not crap enough to fast-forward, the ending was actually ok. 4/10.
I can appreciate both views: personally the prequel trilogies are a 5/10, 4/10 & 6/10 for me: they're bad films with some good bits, and the best thing about them is they introduced so many new elements to the Star Wars universe, which while often badly-executed, were good ideas.
Knights of the Old Republic took many of these ideas and turned it into arguably the greatest Star Wars story ever told.
Yes, strong 8/10. Tho' for me I think it's not one to rewatch.
Also a strong 8/10. I saw it for the 2nd-time recently and this time really noticed it's Morgan Freeman who's the star.
That's not to say Pitt didn't do well. He's gone downhill for a long while now, but back in the mid-to-late 90's he was killing it!
Zodiac was boooooring! Had to keep fast-fowarding and still nothing happened. 2/10.
Silence of the Lambs is another strong 8/10. Can't imagine anyone not giving that a good rating.

Manhunter is a much better film than Silence of the Lambs.
