Just back from Red One.
I thought it was a perfectly good and charming little thing. No idea why the critics have been so sniffy. We had a good time, and as far as I can tell so did everyone else in the screening.

Quite liked Blitz. Sound was amazing and the tension, build up and then the action worked well and matched the rhythms of war and perhaps the jazz soundtrack too
Not sure if it might have been better as an extended series. But worked ok as a slice of life across a few days. Characters moving in and out of the story probably quite realistic for the setting.
I’m not sure what the person missed - perhaps I’m stupid too

I'll put it in a spoiler
They said: it's ridiculous at the end of the film with them looking for each other that she just randomly finds him on some random London street. What are the chances of that?
They had completely missed that she was sitting next to the rubble of her own actual house and that the boy had simply found his way home. They must have also missed that the name of the street was shown on the screen - the same name the boy had been saying throughout - seconds before.

Ah yes that was so obvious I didn’t think it needed explaining

Heretic It was a sparkling autumn afternoon in the agreeable town of Stratford-upon-Avon and I walked into town to enjoy a pre-screening lunch of Pommes Frites avec smashed pea puree. Muy bien. I enjoyed this fillum very much because it was interested much more in ideas than in pure slasher horror thrills. As such it was quite talkie for most of its length but delivered a mostly satisfying conclusion. Hugh Grant was more menacing in his awful cardie than most of the villains in the MCU and the two female leads were also terrifically good. Recommended.

I’d love to see this but a bit scared to go in case I get nightmares.

You'll never look at a game of Monopoly the same way again...
