Battle of Britain (1969)
BoB does not stand test of time
Disjointed and very difficult to follow, this historic battle is not done justice by this mish-mash of a movie in spite of its all-star cast. Very little character development with many repeated scenes this movie has not stood the test of time! The horrors of London's bombing hardly registers and the dire state of England's war effort is not really brought home either. The women portrayed in the movie are barely even props and while the last third of the movie is by far the best part it does not make up for the first 90 minutes. If you're interested from a historic perspective you may want to watch it but if you're interested in seeing a good movie then this is a definite pass.
The Last Bus (2021)
Ignore the Critics
I almost didn't watch this movie because I read Benji Wilson's and Peter Bradshaw's reviews. What do they know anyway? This is a gem of a movie with excellent acting and very good directing. It's heart warming and who cannot use more of that these days?
The Girl in the Spider's Web (2018)
Good movie
I don't understand the negative reviews. I've read both Larsson and Lagercrantz versions and I think this is a solid representation of the Lisbeth Salander saga.
