Finally got around to watching this the other night with my wife and daughter. We all loved it. Incredible production (I’m sure it will clean up the awards for set design, costumes, adapted screenplay etc), the leads were great, music solid and it’s just a very good fun musical. I’d never seen the stage show, now had any idea on the story so went in blind and yeah, really had a good time. It’s weird though seeing the wicked witch of the west as a good person, being she’s made out as one of the great villains in film in the Wizard of Oz.
I was disappointed I spent 2hrs 40mins watching it only to find out this was only the first part and there’s more so we don’t get any real resolution !! But if the second one is as well done as this, then it’ll be a fun watch too. I’d recommend

Friday Flashback: Episode 56-Pulp Fiction
With Mike getting us to Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds, I thought we’d flash back to our first dip in the QT world, Pulp Fiction. Few films had as big an impact on the genre as this film. Does it hold up though?? Did we all still like it?? Where does this rank on the pantheon of Tarantino??

Episode 114: Inglorious Basterds
This week we leap with cinematographer Robert Richardson to the 2009 WWII re-imaging Inglorious Basterds. Mike isn’t a fan of Tarantino, but had few other options that he liked. Scott and Glenn are Tarantino fans so they were happy.
So how did it stack up? Did Mike enjoy it?? Where does this rank in Tarantino’s filmography? Was Christoph Waltz’s performance worthy of an Oscar?

Episode 112: The Horse Whisperer
This week Glenn changes pace for a bit as we leap with Sam Neill to the 1998 Drama The Horse Whisperer. A long film about a man, a woman, a girl and a horse and lots of staring into the wilderness.
To say that opinions on this differed would be an understatement.
Was this Glenn’s revenge for the Blues Brothers?

Whilst everyone is posting Planes Trains and Automobiles today for Thanksgiving, I thought why not post this, a really fun horror film that has some great kills, fun twists and moves beautifully. Ok, it’s not as warm and fuzzy as PTA but it’s a fun watch.

Friday Flashback: Episode 39-Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

Out Friday flashback, this time in a Saturday, we flashback with Sean Connery to the 3rd instalment, and probably the most fun, of the Indinana Jones franchise, The Last Crusade. But did we all like it?? Is it the best of the franchise?? Why does Indy’s dad have a Scottish accident but Indy doesn’t??

Went to see this last night. Loved the original but went in with lower expectations. I went wanting to be entertained, and I was!!
It’s long, it’s more political, but the fight scenes are really good, the performances are very good (especially Denzel). It’s enjoyable, well made and moves pretty well.
What is does well is ties itself back to the original well, plenty of call backs which work. Certainly worth the watch
