I honestly really enjoyed this one. Not scary in the least, and yeah, was laughing quite a lot at it. But it committed to the premise in a big way.

I could see what they were trying to achieve with it, but the Devils in it looked like something from an S&M dungeon.
After seeing the trailer, that was pretty much the only reason I watched it.
This absolute smasher is on iplayer for another week, second time I've watched it and its tremendous. Sherlock coming to terms with his physical and mental frailty living as a nonagenarian on the south coast after WW2.
Ian McKellen is terrific as the titular former detective and the film has fun with the conceit of an aged Sherlock tormented by past events. Even more impressive is Laura Linney as a rural English housekeeper, particularly if you've been watching her in Ozark, proper, proper actor.
Inside Man is on television here. I still think this is probably Spike Lee's best film he's done. Fantastic cast, great acting, great movie.

Yep, that was really grim.
Goodfellas. Still holds up really well. Some amazing performances. Surprised Ray Liotta didn’t go on to have a more distinguished career. Love the menace Joe Pesci carries.
Just noticed that ‘sheeeeeeeeeeit’ guy from the wire appears briefly as a doctor. lol

My favorite mafia film. That scene of them cooking up a proper Italian dinner in prison is so good

I watched Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf earlier, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor on film together, classic 60s film about a couple of drunks arguing with each other, dark comedy. Was good, with an sense of petsonal hurt and emotions
Alien Resurrection
Some slightly ropey ultra 90's CGI and too cool for school space pirates with attitude aside it's a decent enough movie. But although it has the Aliens and has kind-of-Ripley Ripley8 it doesn't really feel like it's connected to the first 3 movies. The aliens just feel like a space McGuffin rather than the great creation from the first film and also seem a bit.....stupid.
Passable hammy action fun though.

Prisoners (got a fair bit time on my hands at the minute)
Enjoyed this. Pretty bleak mind. Jackman plays an angry man very well.

The cut away ending with Jackman blowing the whistle didn’t work well I thought though

Used to think that, now not sure if it’s as good as The Godfather.
Both are brilliant though.
