I watched The Girl on the Train last night. Really enjoyed it - some fine acting in there.

Went old skool last night and watched

Still class

Watched Passengers the other night.

Looks good and Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence are both fit but the story's a bit of a let down.

It's basically a romance with a bit of sci-fi.

5/9.

Watched a Dutch film called Spijt! last night.

Basically about a class in school and one of them is bullied all the time.

It was very good, some really good acting.

Deepwater Horizon - Liked this, pretty intense and some really good performances all round, although the Malkovich character was a bit... weird. I knew nothing of the original events but not sure how BP felt about their portrayal! - 8/10.

Passengers - The only word I can think to describe this was "nice", nothing taxing, some amusing bits, pretty much what @andym78 said. It's bascially a "Rom-Fi"...(?) 7.5/10

Assassins Creed - Pretty hard to separate my mind-set from the computer games really, probably a bit confusing to the neutral? It was ok, would have preferred it be based on the Ezio story, and adding a physical element to the Animus was kinda silly. 6/10

Logan - not bad, totally different from the others and pretty gruesome compared to the child friendly versions

Think 28 days later but on a train

Watched based off your recommendation. 8 zombie-filled carriages out of 10, very tense

I bought The Girl on the Train, The Girl With All The Gifts and I, Daniel Blake last night.

Looking forward to watching all 3 of them, probably starting with the former tonight.

Anyone seen Nocturnal Animals? I had that on my shopping list, too, but didn't spot it. Worth watching?

Yes, it's actually good, the ending wrecked my head though

I liked the ending. What wrecked your head about it?

Yes, I enjoyed it - not film of the year but good script and cast.

It could have been a lot more

Open ended...? i was a bit lost too

Logan....start was pretty bland then it woke up and was 8 or even an 8.5.

I don't think so, for these reasons:

Spoiler

The story was clearly an allegory of their relationship, and a fairly telegraphed interpretation of how she treated him. He was failing as a writer until she left him, and he ended up authoring a great book because he had a well of pain that infused his writing with something it never had before. He got his revenge. All the stuff she wanted from him, for him to be less sensitive, financially stable, more successful etc. he achieved because she left him. When he realised her vision of what he should be, he didn't need her anymore.
