eastcoast 3,729 Posted December 4, 2021 Report Share Posted December 4, 2021 20 hours ago, Ken's Deputy said: " Lock, Stock And Two ... " Prime. Hour 3/4s. Always felt Snatch left it in the dust, frankly. This latest viewing did nothing to disavow me. I watched "Lock, Stock ..." last night. I keep forgetting that I have Amazon Prime on my tele and on only keep the subscription going because they show the occasional EPL game. But when I remember I try and watch it so that I am getting my money's worth. So watched Lock, Stock last night. Great film. Far better than I remember. I do like Guy Richie's style, so British, a bit like Carry On films meet Gangster movies meets cheesy blood and gore horror. Pure entertainment. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A fantastic all British cast, with Ralph Fiennes as Basil Brown, the 'excavator' and finder of the horde. His understated acting in this role is superbe. I'm sure most will find it pretty boring but i really enjoyed it. 8/10 Watched it last night mate, absolutely loved it ! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 14,558 Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 Take your mountain bike mate and slow your mindset back about 20 years and you’ll fit right in . The Suffolk east coast is like the land time forgot and is probably the last part of proper England we will see . It’s a different world there pal from Felixstowe up to Lowestoft . Loads of sleepy little villages and food to savour . Spent 13 years at Sutton hoo heath . Loved it there 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 " Bordertown ". Flix. Hour forty five. Finnish cop thing. But, 1/ The 'novel twist' bit they gave his character was just fukking silly. 2/ It didn't feature Leena Pöysti. So, no happy finnish for me It's a Nope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,536 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Outpost: Netflix, 1 hour 30 mins. Low budget Scottish horror movie. In present day Eastern Europe, a stereotypical group of mercenaries find a secret Nazi bunker with supernatural consequences. 6/10 for novelty value. Cheers, D.
