Fisherman's Friends: One and All (2022)
Heartwarming , funny , emotional and great characters - loved it
I really enjoyed the first movie and though this one was as good maybe a even better . The main characters were excellent and you really felt a good connection to them and story , a good mixture of fun , tears and feel good . A great watch.
Nope (2022)
Nope no thanks that's a nope from me.
Well that's 2 hours of my life I won't get back , the trailer looked promising but I watched the movie wandering what was going on and waiting for something to happen but it just didn't. I nearly left half way but through but thought no lets see if there any nice surprises but they never came . Some will probably rave about this movie but just work for me .
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Worst Thor so far
I've enjoyed the Thor movies, with the exception of Christian Bale doing a good job in this I though the overall movie was just poor to the point I thought why am I'm still watching it . I'm getting the sense these Marvel movies need to take a break for a good 10 years.
Elvis (2022)
I can't put my finger on why but was a little disappointed with this movie
Firstly Austin Butler was great , he could actually be Elvis as he looked so much like him and clearly worked hard to do Elvis justice , but I didn't really enjoy the movie but can't put my finger on why , the Main actors did a good job but I couldn't really get an emotional connection with them or the story line until the very end , I thought the legend Tom Hanks had too much of a part to play and Elvis didn't get enough , the story seemed to bounce all over the place and to me just felt and bit disjointed , Im no movie critic or expert so I recommend seeing it as lots have really raved about it but I woo the be watching it again.
The Black Phone (2021)
What a nice yet unexpected surprise , really good movie
I was glued from start to finish the two young actors Mason Thames and Madeleine McGraw were excellent particularly Madeline , but both have bright futures and I look forward to seeing them in more . I wasn't excepting much but this was a brilliant Psychological thriller and keeps you engaged and on the edge of your seat. Definitely worth a watch .
Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
Absolutely brilliant watched it 3 times
I was worried because really enjoyed the first one and it didn't disappoint, I thought this movie was fantastic , best movie I've seen for a long long time and I've already booked to see it again . Nice to see it wasn't all CGI . Well worth a watch.
The Lost City (2022)
Disappointed all the good parts in the trailer
I was really looking forward to this as the trailer looked good , kinda disappointed as all the good bit seemed to be in the trailer , jokes ok but not enough , worth a watch if you have an unlimited card but I wouldn't pay the regular price to watch it at the cinema.
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Loved it great entertainment
I've got an unlimited card and only went to watch the this movie because I'd seen everything else , I enjoyed the first movie but loved this one , just great entertainment and perfect for all the the family , I'm not surprised it's the number 1 film in the UK.
Fresh (2022)
Marmite of a movies , me I really enjoyed it
Got to be honest , I couldn't find anything to watch so gave this a go thinking I'd turn it off after 10 mins but hate to admit I really enjoyed this movie , no fancy reviews but liked the characters And thought it was something a bit different . Worth a watch.
Ambulance (2022)
Fast paced and plenty of action .
I didn't have any expectations of this movie but was pleasantly surprised , I like Jake G he's a pretty decent actor and he didn't disappoint , plenty of good action and fast paced movie and well worth a watch .
The 355 (2022)
Really enjoyed it
Lots of negative reviews but for me it was worth a watch on the big screen , decent acting , action and overall good entertainment , hoping to see another.
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
Left feeling disappointed
I love Keane Reeve but wasn't a die hard Matrix fan but I enjoyed watching them all those years ago but must admit I got lost in this movie and not in a good way way , I just couldn't keep up with what was going on, my son who in fairness hasn't seen any Matrix films didn't have a clue what was going on as there are lots of clips and references to past movies . So not one of my favourites but maybe if your a die hard fan you'll like it.
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Loved it
I think Tom Holland has really taken Spider man to the next level and really made the role his own that being said I wasn't sure what to expect with this one but I loved it , well worth a watch.
The Unforgivable (2021)
Low expectation after the reviews but really enjoyed it
I watch this movie after reading quite allot of negative reviews but I like Sandra Bullock so thought I'd give it a go , first off I'm not sure why the negative reviews because in my view it was a pretty decent watch , Sandra Bullock was at her best and I thought she was brilliant in it , so glad I watched it .
West Side Story (2021)
Entertaining but couldn't connect with the characters
Worth a watch but I wouldn't say I came put thinking wow that was good, It would have done with subtitles as got lost as there was quite a bit of foreign language in it , I didn't really connect with the characters . For me this was a one time watch and a five out of ten.
King Richard (2021)
A real gem of a movie
I really enjoyed this movies , but got to admit Will Smith made it , his best performance and movie for a long time , also appreciated a bit of a insight to how thhe Williams sisters started out , a really good watch for me and one of the better movies I've seen for a while .
Spencer (2021)
Aweful
Really awful movie , I like Kirsten Stewart but couldn't stand her in this over acted to the point of irritation , the story has been done 100s of time but maybe time to stop know.
The Alpinist (2021)
Outstanding
I wasn't going to see it but gave it a go with my unlimited card. I was gripped from start to finish , outstanding and what an incredible young man .
Manhunt (2019)
Loved it
Just finished binge watching the 2 seasons , excellent viewing.
Respect (2021)
Good movie JH has a great voice
Lots of negative reviews but I really enjoyed this movie . JH vocals skills are excellent, acting was ok . Worth a watch.
Free Guy (2021)
Very entertaining and well worth a watch
I really enjoyed this one , I've been a fan of Jodie Comer since killing eve , not sure if this was her first movie but she was brilliant , looking forward to seeing her in lots more movies.
The Courier (2020)

Excellent move , it helped it was a true story and some some brilliant performances. One of the best movies I've seen since the cinemas reopening.
Meet the Khans: Big in Bolton (2021)
Don't know why but really enjoyed it !
I get the negative comments but I found he an entertaining watch .
French Exit (2020)
Oscar performance from Michelle Pfeiffer but lost interest in the movie half way through
Brilliant acting from a beautiful talented Michelle Pfeiffer but the script falls short , I found myself waiting for something interesting to happen but nothing did , such a shame.
Supernova (2020)
Good acting but was hoping for more
Beautiful acting and scenery but so dull and boring to watch , with these 2 great actors I was hoping for more.
