    So instead of getting a shag tonight I watched a film called 'Operation Mincemeat' about how a team of spies managed to deceive Hitler into moving his troops so that the Sicilian Invasion would be a success.

    Excellent story. If you didn't know for sure it was true you'd think it had been 100% made up.

    Been back and revisited the original Borat film with the missus. She watched it all the way through and I still had to tell her that all the people he interacts with really do think he's a crazy Kazakh reporter.

    It's their genuine bigotry to match his own fake bigotry which makes it such genius!

    After this she saw the film in a whole different light😆

    Sacha Baron Cohen is a superb actor. Loved him as Monsieur Thénardier in Les Misérables

    Well I'm watching Yellowstone (3 episodes in). Wasn't sure I was going to like it as not a massive fan of Western. But if the story's good the story's good. And it's good.

    I recently watched a film called The Great Freedom. How when the allies liberated the concentration camps a certain group of people within didn't get set free. They went straight from one prison to another.

    Excellent film shedding light on what gay people went through before it was decriminalised in the late 60's.

    Then I watched a slow burning espionage thriller told through flashbacks with Chris Pine and Thandiwe Newton trying to get to the bottom of who the mole was during a plane hijacking situation that went very bad. All The Old Knives.

    If you like that sort of thing then it's an excellent watch.

    My last film was just the typical Finnish girl meets Russian boy on a train simmering love story. Really held my interest though so if subtitles are your thing and romantic dramas, with a bit of comedy thrown, in don't put you off give it a go. Compartment Number 6.

    Currently watching The Northman. Very violent, very bloody. Decent story. 3/5/5 perhaps.

    Axel F is excellent. A real throwback to the originals. This is how they should have treated the Star Wars sequels.

    @John-Folan Recently been watching World War 2 in colour on Paramount. Really good stuff. Gave me a weird flashback to being a kid though...

    Anyone else watch the miniseries years ago about the Australian special forces raiding Japanese ships in Singapore? Had Jason Donovan in it, think it was called The Heroes

    Catch that Green!

    @Richard-Latimer 100% agree, I should have commented earlier. Fantastic actor, so many varied roles too. Not the 'star' but his performance in Kelly's Heroes was just brilliant, and I am a huge Clint Eastwood fan.

    One of my favourite films that. Also the weed smoking professor in Animal House

    Late to this but RIP Donald Sutherland, one of the best actors of all time.

    Stole every scene he was in. Elevated The Hunger Games with his portrayal of the evil President Snow.

    @Richard-Latimer Ahaah that'll be mega!!

    I haven't, I haven't actually finished into the spider verse, I need too.

    What they have done with this is amazing, Spidey and his amazing friends - for younger children my daughter loves it, then when she grows out of that she will be big enough for the actual Spiderman, plus will know all the avengers etc... genius!

    @Ryan Have you seen the one I'm on about? Animation is a bit like Into The Spiderverse.

    My kids want to see Insude Out 2 so may get to go.

    Shame it's not on 4DX.

    4DX is amazing fun!!

    @Ryan yeah, I've always loved cartoons😂

    The missus is Asian as well so she kind of got that whole Asian family dynamic😂

    Definitely recommend Apollo 10 1/2 though. It's on netflix.

    @Richard-Latimer Turning Red is one of Isla's faves! Which I find fascinating because she's 3 and I feel like some of it should be over her head but she loves it.

    I think it's pretty good, Disney films are amazing for me!

    Most recently I've been catching up with a few kids films I wanted to watch that the kids have already seen and kept saying no to😆

    Puss In Boots: The Last Wish
    Turning Red
    The Bad Guys

    All a decent watch if you either have kids or are a big kid like me!

    Last night I watched a film I'd had on my list for a while:

    Apollo 10 1/2 A Space Aged Childhood.

    Really cool animation is the first thing to say. Kid growing up in 60's Texas gets earmarked for a mission to the moon. Sounds strange I know but the majority of the film plays out looking back at his childhood up to that point.

    Although I didn't grow up in the 60's it was wildly entertaining as the reminiscing over playing outside, making your own games up, lack of health and safety etc....

    It's the same kind of reminiscing every generation has. From 60's right through to the noughty's no doubt.

    It did leave me wondering though. What are Gen Z going to look back fondly on. How far will technology and society have to go so they too can wax lyrical over how it was all so much simpler growing up in 2024🤣
