I have just watched the best movie ever

[Constanza]

Paddington 2.
How did I miss this the first time round?
To think I wasted my Christmas struggling to enjoy The Irishman.

" The Irishman " is that a film or the company you were keeping ? Edit, Oh yeah, I've just remembered it's that film with Robert De Nero.

Wouldn't dream of watching Paddington 1 never mind 2, but it wouldn't have to be very good to be better than The Irishman which I gave up on after about 90 turgid minutes

And anyway, surely Mutiny on the Buses is the best film ever

Hugh Grant has said it’s the best film he’s ever been in. Not sure that counts for much.

Nothing more than copy & paste off the telly

Not a patch on the Shawshank Redemption in my opinion.

For years I thought that was the Sheepshank Redemption... a film about knot making!

Compared to Love Actually, he's probably right!

[Chicken Dhansak]

Watched Trains, Planes and Automobiles last night. The film is 33 years old and it still makes me laugh out loud. Great film.
I think one of the best films ever was 12 years a slave.

Fair comment but at least Love Actually had Stacey getting her ya-ya's out.

[greyhound]

IMO the best film ever made was Zulu.

PTA - great film for a laugh.

[EliotNes]

BTTT - Constanza - Mrs Nes agrees with you, but she also likes the first Paddington almost as much.

[slacker]

Grant’s good as the baddie in P2: better than Kidman was in P1. It’s great fun.

Best film.....one flew over the cuckoo nest.

So it wasn't just me that was disappointed with 'The Irishman' ? I've seen much worse films but considering the hype around it I was expecting much more. The de-aging technology may have made the actors look younger (debatable) but what it didn't do was alter the fact that De Niro is now 76 and moves like a 76 year old. There was a fight sequence which was laughably bad. Also far too long, not interesting enough to justify 3 and a bit hours.

One of the rare posts on here that I cant really argue with.
