Honestly have no idea how this works.
MINORITY REPORT - Tom Cruise really does love running, doesn't he? It takes a little time for you to understand and get on board but once you do it's fast, tense and a clever concept. Being squeamish, I enjoyed the scenes with the eye transplant far less. Also, I would hate sideways cars. (ITVX)

A SERIOUS MAN - A dark comedy from Coen Brothers which made me laugh a lot in parts (Fred Melamed is SO good in this, I wish he'd been in it more!) but ultimately left me rather confused. I read up on it and it's very much open to interpretation, I'm just not quite sure what's mine. Worth watching.

SUPER 8 - I wonder if Stranger Things took any influence from this because there are some light similarities (in the first series anyway). Steven Spielberg and J.J. Abrams's 80s sci-fi flick is well done and has a good cast. It also comes out the gate with about 5 minutes of explosions. (Prime)

BETTER MAN - This Robbie Williams biopic made a smart choice by having the motion-capture chimp element. It does make it much more engaging. It's a jukebox musical that doesn't hold back on painting Robbie in a bad light at times. It feels honest. Better than I thought. No pun intended. (Prime)

Definitely an overkill of swearing at times but it has a great cast of characters brought to life by a superb voice cast which includes Stephanie Beatriz, Jeremy Jordan and Keith David to name a few. The 2nd season JUST finished being released on Prime. Check it out, you will get hooked! (2/2)

HAROLD AND MAUDE - Now this I bloody loved! So darkly funny and full of mischief. It's very 70s, the relationship between the two leads, whilst not to everyone's taste, is very sweet and the actors give such stand-out performances. A very different kind of rom-com!

MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO - I was a bit disappointed by this - it had been hyped as a cult classic you HAD to see. It's perfectly fine - Keanu Reeves is very good in it especially - but it didn't really stir much in me if I'm honest. Maybe I'm just a cold bastard.

BRASSED OFF - Terrific little indie comedy with a great cast of British names but I was honestly not expecting it to be so moving. It's far less light-hearted than the poster makes it seem. It's a bittersweet look at 1990s Northern working class life with some beautiful horn concertos.

FAST & FURIOUS PRESENTS: HOBBS & SHAW - This film is utterly UTTERLY ludicrous and stupid, with about 85% of it just being Dwayne Johnson & Jason Statham bickering and mocking each other's dick size, and none of the plot makes any sense. That said, it's also HIGHLY entertaining!

Yup! And/or their own paid-for podcast deal with the most expensive professional studio and kit plus full filming equipment and camera operator with instant monetisation. The concept of the podcast will be irrelevant.
