Watched the Hateful Eight this evening, watched a few of Tarentino's films and enjoyed them, this wasn't one of them.
This was a much anticipated film for me....never made it to the end,walked out.
What a load of crud,the script seems to have been knocked up by a couple of 20 yr offs over the course of a weekend. Very thin,childish storyline interspersed with gratuitous blood n guts n bullets...4 out of 10.

Anyone seen "The walk" supposed to be awesome , if I get my box working later , I fancy this, rise of footsoldier2 is awesome if you like that kind of thing, ricci nutt plays carlton leach again, , great actor.
Just finished watching "The Walk" true story, different, potty and an eyeopener so 7 out of 10 watched via phoenix; 2015 hd.
It's not, it's a 3 hour film, that can seem to drag along in the first hour or so while they build the story up, if anyone has got the attention span of a gnat, then it's probably not for them.
Watched 'Spooks' last night, awful film imho, nothing like the excellent BBC series. Also watched The West Wing on Sky Atlantic this morning, I'd forgotten what a great tv series it was. Excellent cast and script.

The West Wing is one if the greatest TV dramas ever made.
Thoroughly enjoyed. Many parallels with my own experiences.
Holy Cow, JF!
DId your wife stage her own disappearance and murder to frame you?
Anyway, I have a choice of Hateful 8, Star Wars or the Revenant for my cinema trip on Wednesday. Recommendations, please? I'm guessing not Hateful 8, given comments earlier in the thread.

I thoroughly enjoyed The Revenant, well worth a watch. Enjoyed Star Wars too but I think you need to be a fan.
It wasn't. I caught it in 70mm. One of the best cinema experiences. Django and Inglorious Basterds do edge it, but Hateful Eight is closer in style to Reservoir Dogs. If you like Tarantino's older stuff, you'll enjoy it.
Thanks for recommendations for The Revenant, went to see it last night, very impressed.
It's a violent and unremittingly bleak film, but has terrific acting and amazing cinematography. Stunning Canadian Arctic locations. I understand the 'bear attack' scene uses CGI but you'd never know it.

My old man said exactly the same, a gruesome film he said and the blood very realistic!

Glad you enjoyed it. That is a well made film and a great storyline.
What really impressed me is the way Cgi technology has moved on...you really can't tell the difference any more...that grizzly bear attack was seamless... Cracking film 9 out 10.

Again, The Revenant.Absolute classic film.If DiCaprio doesn't win the Oscar for best actor then there's an agenda against him.Best film I've seen in a long time.The bear scene is mindblowing and the bit where they're both fighting and rolling down the hill I still can't get my head around the brilliant CGI.
Joy is another good film on Kodi atm with the beautiful Jennifer Lawrence.
Also the new Steve Jobs film is worth a watch.Didn't realize he was such a tosser.
