Hi All,
John Wick 2 (Via Sky Cinema) I enjoyed the film but did not think it was as good as the first, having said that it is still good viewing none the less
being full of fast action throughout the film. ( One funny moment was when Wick and his targets bodyguard are firing at each other while walking in the train station 😀 ) Must sat though I am still not a fan of CGI and blood would like to see makers go back to practical effects as it’s more realistic IMPO..:cool:

Retired super-assassin John Wick’s plans to resume a quiet civilian life are cut short when Italian gangster Santino D’Antonio shows up on his doorstep with a gold marker, compelling him to repay past favors. Ordered by Winston, kingpin of secret assassin society The Continental, to respect the organization’s ancient code, Wick reluctantly accepts the assignment to travel to Rome to take out D’Antonio’s sister, the ruthless capo atop the Italian Camorra crime syndicate.

Hi All,
Millenium 1989 (Via Talking Pictures channel on Sky) This Sci-Fi film admittedly rather dated now but at the I first watched I thought it was a decent
film,today it seems to be just a run of the mill B-Movie but enjoyable just the same just at the start of the CGI revolution that followed on from Star Wars…;)

Al Waxman,Lawrence Dane and Thomas Hauff.

Two jetliners collide, and Bill Smith (Kris Kristofferson) is put in charge of investigating the accident. But something isn’t adding up about the crash — from
the strange comments on the flight recorder to the unidentifiable object found in the wreckage. What Smith doesn’t know is that time travellers have
taken the ill-fated passengers to repopulate the future. To ensure their mission’s success, they send a gorgeous operative, Louise (Cheryl Ladd), to the
past to hamper Smith’s work.

Hi All,
This Is Spinal Tap via (Sky Cinema -Returning Favourite) Just an enjoyable mocumentary romp through the lives of a fictional bands life on the road
during their return tour that definitely has funny moments i.e.The Smalls airport metal detector scene,Jeanine David’s girlfriend dubly(Dolby) and
trying to influence a new look for the band with costumes and face paint scenes,Not finding the stage,The 18″ Stonehenge model stage prop lowering,
The empty album signing promotion and the D’minor trilogy-Lick My Love Pump…..:highly_amused:

“This Is Spinal Tap” shines a light on the self-contained universe of a metal band struggling to get back on the charts, including everything from its
complicated history of ups and downs, gold albums, name changes and undersold concert dates, along with the full host of requisite groupies, promoters,
hangers-on and historians, sessions, release events and those special behind-the-scenes moments that keep it all real.
