Les quatre cents coups (The 400 Blows) (1959)
The story of a young boy who struggles with life both at home and at school and his slow decline into petty theft and, ultimately, incarceration.
I knew a little bit about this film before watching it and, thanks to reading what I had read, expected it to be an ultra-depressing depiction of a young boy stuck in a complete downward spiral. It wasn't quite that. It was emotionally affecting and wonderfully acted but I suppose I was just expecting more than I got.
The sequence of events that led to Antoine's mum and dad relinquishing parental responsibility doesn't quite seem to tally with the extent of his punishment. His prospects seem to be dead in the water following a few indiscretions at school and one instance of petty theft. It all seems a bit extreme. Then again, Antoine's parents didn't seem particularly prepared to work hard with him to improve his behaviour so perhaps the easy way out was always inevitable, one way or another.
8/10
In similar vain to Kes? which is an excellent film I might ad, I would suggest you have a look into it but be warned it is ultra depressing.
Tried to be too comical in what was a dangerous situation although i must admit Alan Arkin was amusing. The film only concentrated on the 6 in The Canadian Embassy where i would have like to seen what the other hostages had to go through for over 400 days. I know Argo was the fake film to trick the Iraqi's but those other hostages went through hell.
Cracking film that.The Dead Zone (1983)
A man is involved in a car accident which leaves him comatose for five years. He wakes up to find that he has developed the ability to see future events.
This was kind of strange in that it felt like two different rushed plots nailed together but I suppose that is always a danger with film adaptations of novels due to the different time constraints of each medium. Half of the film deals with our main character's psychic ability in relation to an active serial killer and the other half deals with a rabble-rousing, Trumpesque politician on a path to global destruction via the White House. I preferred the latter half and thought Sheen was excellent as the sleazy politician.
9/10
No doubt Salty will like this film 
Braveheart was decent for the battles but an Aussie trying to preach about how cruel the English were in trying to stop raids into our country was total bollocks,it's not the only film where he's shown his hate for England but who takes the twat seriously?
That's the one it's complete bullshit.
6/10.
I've still yet to see this and I have it favourited on Kodi to watch, but the running time means I've got to be in the mood to watch it.The Revenant (2015)
Finally got round to watch this and was left disappointed. Over hyped and overlong although the story was a good one. There's only so many time you can watch the deprivations he went through and the fight with the bear was hilarious even though it wasn't meant to be
You might like it mate but i didn't agree with all the hype,like i said it was a good story and the scenery was stunning but there were too many spells of nothing happening.
I don't mind that if its atmospheric, a lot of There Will Be Blood and Assassination Of Jesse James was like that. I'll see, but I'm looking forward to another hammy Di Craprio performance anyway, and Tom Hardy mumbling his way through the film.
