Coherence (2013)

 

7/10

 

Interesting movie about parallel universes. Be ready to grad a notebook and not miss any little details. Movie is not perfect as it relies too much on little details and mutiple viewing to really understand what is going on but it's still interesting to watch and read about it afterward. I'm not a fan of in your face movies where everything is explained but i think this movie went a little bit too far and relied too much on small details that you can esily miss if you are not 100% focus from the 1st to last minute of the movie.

John wick 6/10 Cool actions scenes, not much of a story.

 

yeah, i liked it, and will watch the sequel, but i don't understand people who give it 10/10...   there was not much there.  definitely a good movie. but as you say, there is not much there.

I watched John Wick two nights ago. AMAZING. Keanu did a fantastic job.

 

Other notable films of the past month

 

Predestination (superb)

Interstellar (bit too long, ok story, nice 3D representation of time, beautifilly filmed)

Big Hero 6 (great fun, Disney are doing better than Pixar these days)

The Equalizer (great great fun)

Edge of Tomorrow (solid sci-fi film, Cruise is doing great recently, this and Oblivion are really good fims)

Nightcrawler (amazing!)

The Imitation Game (really enjoyable, solid film)

The Theory of Everything (excellent acting although the story has been told many times so gets a little boring now, not much different to the 2004 Hawking with Cumberbatch)

Just finished watching "John Wick". Awesome movie!! with Keanu Reeves. 11/10.

 

Hell yeah! I loved every second of John Wick. People say Keanu is a wooden actor but I felt he acted more in the first 20 minutes of that film than most. You could see and feel the loneliness in him. Then that love overwhelmed with revenge. His dark side coming back from where he had buried it all those years ago. Then the action. OH MY GOD! The fight scenes, gun scenes and editing were just epic. Just a little over the top but not so much that it feels stupid. I loved the more Asian feeling to the fighting and cuts rather than the Hollywood style. they felt very fluid and real. Much more like a Jackie Chan fight than a Stallone for example. I hope they do another with the John Wick character. Keanu was superb.

Edge of Tomorrow: 8/10

Reminds me of the plot from Moon 7/10

 

John Wick: 10/10

Needs two more films, minimum.

lots of action but little actual plot 6/10

 

47 Ronin: 8/10

 

Lots of action scenes but thin on reality,chewing gum for the eyes 5/10

 

 

 

Predestination an interesting concept with a plot twist right near the end 8/10

I Origins (2014)

 

7/10

 

Interesting movie about beliefs. The is considered as a sci-fi movie but it's not really one. It is really a movie about beliefs versus science and how someone who believes in nothing can be lead to believe because deep down this is what he wants.

 

The death scene in the movie is really puzzling.

A Boy and His Dog

For those that might not know, this was an inspiration for the Fallout game series.

I really enjoyed it. I could certainly see things that Fallout took from it. And that ending was brilliant...

I went from being all teary-eyed to laughing out loud.

Definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

3.5/5

Brilliant, well-shot documentary about Snowden (plus The Guardian reporters involved) and filmed alongside him as the leaks were released to the media worldwide, well worth a watch just to see his reasoning behind the mass surveillance disclosures in 2013.

 

9/10, only because I wanted more.

10/10 Loved it and very awesome art style I'd love to see more

 

I recommend Tailenders, artwork is quite similar and the story in some places. I've been fortunate to see REDLINE on the big screen three times; every time it was euphorically awesome with the techno soundtrack thumping out around me. Never a dull moment (Y)

6-9/10 I can't decide. Holy ###### what a movie. I thought Stanley Kubrick came back to life.

    • Who wants to pay higher prices for the same 6+ year hardware in a new shell? This is hardware where things change fast and improve continuously. They could update w/ quicker/more efficient compute, faster storage, new controllers with new features (not a shell/design update), which are all realistic possibilities. They've done mid-generation console updates, but all we've had for Series X/S are not just different configuration updates (storage / digital versions / console aesthetics). Instead they've prioritized acquisitions, increasing prices, and have lost quite bit of their fan base because of lack of vision.
    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter by Usama Jawad LibreOffice maintainer The Document Foundation (TDF) has often criticized Microsoft for popularizing the OOXML standard for documents instead of the truly open-source OpenDocument Format (ODF). It has also bashed the Redmond tech giant for putting its own commercial interests over everything else. Now, it has switched targets a bit to aim its sights at the Euro-Office suite launching tomorrow. For those unaware, Euro-Office is a direct fork of OnlyOffice. It is being marketed as an open-source "European sovereign alternative" to proprietary services like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It is being developed by a coalition of European companies including Nextcloud, IONOS, and Tuta. However, TDF has disagreed with this marketing classification in an open letter, saying that it is not the first open-source office suite being developed in Europe, as that honor belongs to OpenOffice.org, back in 2001. In a snide remark, it has emphasized that it feels "compelled" to clarify this because open-source initiatives should highlight transparency, not deception. It has stated that OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice are the only two "genuine" office suites with codebases in Europe, indicating that Euro-Office is a freeware clone of Microsoft Office that has rebranded itself to masquerade as a symbol of digital sovereignty. TDF has also remarked on the fact that those that are championing digital sovereignty now were very dismissive of LibreOffice and ODF a couple of decades ago: The LibreOffice has once again called out Microsoft for its "horrible" OOXML standard which locks in customers. Euro-Office also leverages this OOXML format, which effectively makes it an ally of Microsoft, according to LibreOffice. That said, it is unlikely if TDF's strong words will have any impact on the adoption or marketing of Euro-Office.
    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. In other words, you can choose the amount of Liquid Glass you want to see on your iPhone instead of an on/off switch, which would only give you two choices. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, sidebar icons keep their color. Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass. New customizations allow Liquid Glass to improve contrast and enable a more vibrant appearance. The new icons have sharper edges, which addresses an old complaint that iOS 26 icons look blurry at smaller sizes. The upgraded Liquid Glass, Apple said, is building on last year's design upgrades by "integrating additional layers of Liquid Glass directly into the artwork itself." Apple's upgraded design language is available on iOS 27, which is arriving this year with no changes to the list of supported iPhones.
    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
