Spectre (2015)
Paid 5 pounds for the ticket + soda and popcorn; I intend to lodge a complaint to Bureau of Consumer Protection to get my 5 pounds back for this piece of shit that I saw.

Seems that you're not alone.

When even the 16 year old Taylor Swift fans turn against you, you know good and certain that you've produced a monumental pile a shit.
Seriously though,who the fuck decides to re-reinvent something when all the praise the Bond franchise has gotten the last few years is because it was stripped down and had moved away the Roger Moore type stupidity.

I'd gotten wind of Spectre sucking, but am disappointed to learn how crappy Man from UNCLE turned out. Was planning to watch that soon. Vikander is one of my favorite females.
Re: Critically Evaluate the last movie you saw.
So what you're saying is as far as you know, not much happened.
Btw I hate spam so let's try to stay on toe pick.
The Gift.Not to be confused with The Gift.
Good movie.At least one of them.I'm guessing the one with the lower IMDB rating because I've noticed that's how things work.

As far as I know, I don't know.
I didn't even realize there was one gift, and now there's two. Can you give a brief synopsis that differentiates between the two and tailor to someone who has no idea of either?

One was made pre 2000 so there are tits and an actual plot instead of stuff just occasionally happening.The other was made post 2000 and since it's not a TV show on some sort of premium service and doesn't involve ghey people there are no tits or plot.
It starts to get a bit more confusing though when you break it down further since they are both psychological thrillers starring Australians pretending to be Americans.
It gets even more confusing when you factor in that there is a third film called The Gift which is actually about ghey people yet as as far as I know not on TV and involves no Australians.
In a totally related note I just discovered that Joel Edgerton auditioned for the role of Ty-Zor in McG's "now-aborted" version of Superman.
The fact that McG's version of Superman never got made makes Joel Schumacher's Batman and Robin sad as it must now remain as the worse superhero movie ever.:(

Although the viewing audience appreciates a coherent and fleshed out narrative, once it was discovered that we'd pay just to watch explosions for 90 min, such efforts became expendable. I stick with TV now because it's a much better moving picture medium for story telling. I always had a deeper appreciation for a film series over singular films. Bond might be an example, but Zatoichi is an even better example because there's no amnesia between films. This modern growth of, respect for, and investment into television we've been seeing over the past 15 years, I'm a fan.
I thought the recent Daredevil series paralleled the style of comics much more than anything I've seen to date. You see glimpses of it in some of the Marvel films, but the downtime for heroes in films always feels like it's set to a schedule, which is just another effect of creating a 90-150 min experience.
Re: Critically Evaluate the last movie you saw.
The Hateful Eight (2015) Is this finally the movie that reveals that the emperor has no clothes?
It's increasingly clear that unlike the title credits say, Quentin Tarantino hasn't made eight movies he's only made two - Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs repeated seven times.
Take a cast of reprehensible characters throw them into a tale involving revenge, spruce it up with a bunch of long-winded dialogue that while itself may be entertaining does nothing to move the story along and end everything with a bloodbath and you're good to go.
I mean, seriously sometime during the course of this three hour edifice to poor editing I lost track if I was watching The Hateful Eight or Django or Inglorious Basterds.
Not a bad film, just an utterly disappointing one.
