Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Apart from the translator (and arguably star), I think part of my problem was all the Germans were portrayed as stupid

I want to watch the former. I need to watch the latter.

Another streaming movie last night - Revenge on Mubi. Coralie Fargeat as director, with story told partly in English and partly in French.

Some very uncomfortable parts for a whole raft of reasons. Gory, compelling, OTT. Got me gripped, and even my better half was enjoying the second half of it (she missed the first half, and I could see her really hating the first act).

And yet another from the Mubi stable; Robot Dreams, a 100 minute hand drawn and dialogue free tale of a dog and their robot companion, separated by corrosion and time! Up for an Oscar I believe.

Really lovely watch, caught the first hour when I got in from work and decided to shelve my planned outdoor run to watch the remainder on the treadmill. As a format choice for treadmill running, absolutely perfect!!

There's a lot to recommend in it: interesting animation style, lots of fun 70s and 80s nostalgia, a great soundtrack and some surprising emotional depths. And it's also dialogue-free (though there's still a lot of reading to do) BUT it's just... too... slow! I'm not about to wheel out the "should've been a short film" point, but it definitely needed to be shorter than 102 minutes. The first Toy Story achieved so much more in under 80 minutes. It was telling that the only other people in the auditorium (a grandparent and a grandchild) left about an hour into it, thus missing the big emotional payoff. Had it been better paced then they might've stayed right till the end.

Just quoting this as the only other reference to it on this thread that I can spot. I disagree about the pace; it's what surprised me all the way through, that there was sufficient content to maintain the running time. I can see how another director / artist might have made it a shorter offering, but the length of time for me cemented the way the relationships worked, and each vignette of dream or reality was sufficiently coherent and different to the others that I enjoyed it thoroughly!

Just out from CA: BNW. I rather enjoyed it. A proper Avengers-adjacent MCU film. I rated it a solid 'unlikely' in my 'film of the year' rankings.

Is it worth the entrance fee, or should I just wait a few months to see it on my big screen at home?

I saw it on Screen 6 which is very small, but there were youngsters to my right who adored it from start to finish. That definitely enhanced the experience for me

Everyman Chelmsford was the third busiest cinema in the country over the weekend by some obscure metric concerning percentage capacity, according to my buddy the duty manager yesterday.

It’s constantly rammed - Bridget Jones and Dog Man doing all the business. The Cap is just being slotted in the gaps
