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.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
