Poor Things (2023)
1/10
Once again fooled that an Oscar winning film is apparently 'good'
17 March 2024
Warning: Spoilers
This film is absolutely gross. Why was I once again taken in by what certain critics thought of it and it one awards. It's absolutely awful. I had no sympathy for any of the characters, least of all Bella. No doubt this film will seen as a masterpiece of surrealism in the future but like most surrealist works of art, completely wasted on me. It's not erotic at all and it just made me feel nauseous, particularly when it was set in Paris. Because of this I can only compare it to that over travesty of a movie 'Saltburn' that also left me with a bad taste in my mouth for a very long time. My advice is to watch something better and tasteful.

What does Spielberg hate us Brits?
4 February 2024
I'm only two episodes in of this series that I was really looking forward to and already there is a scene where the British RAF are seen as stereotype 'chocks away, Ginger. Tally Ho!' Public school idiots. Now I'm sure some that served in the war did meet this criteria but not all of them but why did Spielberg insist they were included in this series? I'm sure the British didn't get much credit in 'Band of Brothers' either. The most insulting thing as that the British were portrayed as 'cowardly' for flying at night! Airmen on both sides were extremely brave and should be respected.

Please Mr Spielberg, be courteous to all the brave airmen that fought in the war, regardless of nationality. This has sadly ruined what is otherwise an excellent series.

What a complete loads of b*llocks!
2 June 2022
I really wanted to like this but was so bitterly disappointed. I can't believe this was based loosely on fact and if it was, I lost interest very quickly.

Absolutely horrible
7 December 2021
Tolerated three episodes of this sick, vile series then gave up. Hated every minute of it. The writers should be ashamed of themselves in creating this nasty product.

Great start but got so bad
2 June 2021
Watched the first season of this. The first seven episodes were great but the last three were so let down by the main character's utter stupidity.

So disappointed
18 April 2021
Watched this movie to see what the fuss was about. I love revenge movies, especially if a female is getting revenge but I was so, so disappointed in how this ended. A real shame in what could have been a great movie.

Embarrassing to watch
27 February 2021
What an absolutely awful film. All those involved should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. It wasn't scary and the plot was terrible.

High expectations but low delivery
30 January 2021
So disappointed with this. Why could I see the twist so much earlier than the apparently super smart FBI agent?

So incompetent!
15 March 2020
After watching 'Black Spot', I thought I'd give this one a go. Aside from their being so many parallels with them both, the biggest thing that really annoys me is how incompetent these police officers are! Especially Virginie! She is so rash, idiotic and and naive that I'm up to part 4 and want to give it up!

Poignant
17 March 2019
A thought provoking film. However what I really like is that it a refreshing change to see a film where strangers are nice and kind and caring instead of being murdering psychopaths. Gives one hope in this almost hopeless world.
