Re: Lights Out

A short film at a reported 81 minutes which had imo potential If you DIDN'T like It Follows (and not a criticism) in that that gets the adrenaline pumping then this would be in that genre/ ball park If longer it would have been better and more like It Follows I agree NOT the film it could have been ...

Re: The Demise of Free Films - Open debate

SFF I assume provide a service to the Producers/ Distributors. I guess that those who Producers/ Distributors want promotion are happy with the expense It may be that SFF has noticed members are NOT providing feedback (mine is less than 50%) So why should Producers/ Distributors p*y so some should ...

Re: Triple 9

I thought this was a decent film-it entertained me-But-I expected a lot more given the stellar cast. Not just a stellar cast an ALL STAR cast. Despite being 115 minutes, I would say that director John Hillcoat has NOT told the full story which he could have done with 20 more minutes to fill in the ...

Re: The Lobster

Watched last night in another BIFA screening. Another mostly empty cinema which was a shame as I WOULD have enjoyed it MORE The film was subtitled which is NOT a distraction for me. The weird part was the film was subtitled which is for some unknown reason it was "covered" up by a grey BAR that ...
