Total crap that references countless other movies,if you bother to see this rubbish it passes the time spotting the other films.It is beyond words how bad this is.Loads of that weird Spielberg sentimentality crap on show,I know he didn't direct but he holds the reins on the franchise.There is a scene that is straight out the kids cartoon "The Land That Time Forgot" when a poor old Diplodocus is left behind as the island of Guano blows itself to bits.In one scene a dinosaur called the Fuckingnastyasauros actually opens a set of bay doors using the handle,sneaks into the room where an 8 year old is cowering under a duvet,taps it's claw on the wood flooring to announce it's presence as the girl cries and cowers even more.....what the fuck is that all about?

Hi All, Railroad17 - Watched a review of that on a youtuber called Geeks and gamers he pretty much agrees although he suggests the ending leaves an opening for a sequel. Jungle 2017 (Via SKY Cinema). This film low budget film is a true life drama that is actually quite good despite only average reviews, at times you can really empathise with Daniel Radcliffe's character, on the whole worth a watch if you like true to life drama films...
Starring:-Daniel Radcliffe,Alex Russell,Thomas Kretschmann,Yasmin Kassim,Joel Jackson,Jacek Koman,Lily Sullivan,Angie Milliken, Joey Vieira,Paris Moletti and, Luis Jose Lopez.
A mysterious guide escorts an enthusiastic adventurer and his friend into the Amazon jungle. Their journey turns into a terrifying ordeal as the darkest elements of human nature and the deadliest threats of the wild force them to fight for survival.
Geoff.

Hi All, Logan 2017 (Via SKY Cinema) Have to admit excellent if extremely violent Sci-Fi right from the off in this X-Men franchise film (Based on the Old Man Logan aka Wolverine superhero comic book). An excellent way to bow out for Hugh Jackman....
Starring:-Hugh Jackman,Patrick Stewart,Boyd Holbrook,Stephen Merchant,Richard E. Grant,Dafne Keen,Eriq La Salle,Elise Neal, Elizabeth Rodriguez,Doris Morgado, David Kallaway,Han Soto,Jason Genao,Krzysztof Soszynski and Alison Fernandez.
In the near future, a weary Logan (Hugh Jackman) cares for an ailing Professor X (Patrick Stewart) at a remote outpost on the Mexican border. His plan to hide from the outside world gets upended when he meets a young mutant (Dafne Keen) who is very much like him. Logan must now protect the girl and battle the dark forces that want to capture her.

Hi All, Tommy's Honour 2016 (Via Sky Cinema) I enjoyed this good Biopic drama that is well acted by the small cast...

Tommy's Honour is a 2016 historical drama film depicting the lives and careers of, and the complex relationship between, the pioneering Scottish golfing champions Old Tom Morris and his son Young Tom Morris.

Hi All, Professor Marston and the Wonder Women 2017 (Via SKY Cinema) I downloaded this thinking it would be interesting background story behind the creation of the Wonder Woman franchise (The film which I intend to watch next).
I never expected as it turns out that the most famous female super hero character actually got her start from a professor, his wife and they're lover who all lived together during a fantasy that he and they got into that gave him the idea of the Super Hero character, incidentally they are also credited with inventing the polygraph machine.
I enjoyed the film as it was the right balance that showed the relationship both good and bad between all three that eventually lead up to the creation of Wonder Woman. Just a good drama all told but I will say not for everybody......
Starring:- Luke Evans,Rebecca Hall,Bella Heathcote,Monica Giordano,JJ Feild,Chris Conroy,Oliver Platt,Christopher Paul Richards and Connie Britton.

Wonder Woman 2017 (Via SKY Cinema) I really enjoyed this Fantasy/Sci-Fi, although not a big fan even of the comic books or the Linda Carter version (Yes I did watch the Tv series ) Only two gripes really most of the CGI was good but a couple of times they dropped the ball.
Also although Gal Gadot hit the mark spot on. One question:- Why did they not employ young French girl actress as the younger wonder woman growing from toddler to woman ? I say this only because you have to be tone deaf not to hear Gal Godet's strong French accent, the child actor who played the young wonder woman had clearly had English as her 1st language.....
Starring:-Gal Gadot,Chris Pine,Robin Wright,Danny Huston,David Thewlis,Connie Nielsen,Elena Anaya,Lucy Davis,Saïd Taghmaoui, Ewen Bremner,Eugene Brave Rock,Lisa Loven Kongsli,Mayling Ng,Florence Kasumba,Madeleine Vall Beijner,Hayley Jane Warnes, Ann Wolfe,James Cosmo,Steffan Rhodri,Doutzen Kroes,Samantha Jo and a cameo by Zack Snyder.
Before she was Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, Diana meets an American pilot (Chris Pine) who tells her about the massive conflict that's raging in the outside world. Convinced that she can stop the threat, Diana leaves her home for the first time. Fighting alongside men in a war to end all wars, she finally discovers her full powers and true destiny.

Hi All, Detroit - Isn't that a tiny bit of a small minded critique ?.......... The Man Who Never Was 1956 (Via BBCi available until Sat-04/08). The True Story of Glyndwr Michael and operation Mincemeat during WWII,you can even visit a web page dedicated to this man:-www.themanwhoneverwas.com/
Starring:-Clifton Webb,Gloria Grahame,Robert Flemyng,Josephine Griffin,Stephen Boyd,Laurence Naismith,William Russell,
Geoffrey Keen,Moultrie Kelsall,Cyril Cusack,André Morell,Michael Hordern,William Squire,Allan Cuthbertson,Joan Hickson, Terence Longdon,Gibb McLaughlin,Gordon Bell and Ewen Montagu.
As the British military prepares to invade Sicily during World War II, intelligence agent Ewen Montagu (Clifton Webb) hatches a cunning plan to fool Germany into believing the Allies' true target is Greece. Concocting a fictitious British officer named Maj. William Martin, Montagu gathers false top-secret documents and personal letters to plant upon a corpse that will wash ashore in Spain. But the investigations of a German undercover agent (Stephen Boyd) could potentially expose the fraud.

Hi All, Imperium 2016 (Via BBCi Available until 4th Sept) ( WARNING - Not to everyone's taste ) I was expecting a bit more from the film as being based on fact I imagined it would show both the good and bad facts not just glimmers leaving the viewer to they're imagination. The film never really shows the true nature and violence that go hand in hand at times with extreme far right groups and they're ideology, Apart from that gripe not a bad drama all told, the film gets you into the undercover operation that Daniel Radcliffe's character gets involved with......
Starring:-Daniel Radcliffe,Toni Collette,Tracy Letts,Sam Trammell,Nestor Carbonell,Roger Yawson,Devin Druid,Pawel Szajda, Chris Sullivan,Burn Gorman,Seth Numrich,Jasson Finney,Maboud Ebrahimzadeh,David Aranovich,Paul H. Chapman,Rodney Roldan, Bobby Parker Jr.,Morgan Applegate and Shawn Singletary.
Nate Foster is a young and inexperienced FBI agent. When a major terrorist plot is uncovered, he must go deep undercover to infiltrate the gang of white supremacists responsible.
