It's on Tubi now
She's one of the worst characters i have ever seen written
The token inclusive casting aside just a completely charmless rude obnoxious character, Ruins the show.
Redmeyne isn't much better to be fair but his character type is common the bad character who is actually a decent family man when not at work
But she is supposed to be the protagonist and yet impossible to root for. The whole way she acted when the young girl died in custody was abhorrent and was clearly open to cheating on her husband with her handsome partner. within 5 minutes of talking over a drink even mocking her own family as if they are fools or something? they have literally done nothing wrong except ask her to go to some school recital but her response is like are these people for real? i am MI6 i don't have time for this bullshit how dare they expect me to be a mother and wife
Constantly talks to her college like a piece of shit when he's trying to help her. Even talks to civilians and a grieving mother with distain
And it's laughable seeing everyone at MI6 looking to her while she calls the plays. Who the fuck is this chick do they send her in to ruin the shows first Bond and now this one she's obviously being pushed as a star but has zero star quality or an ounce of charisma or likeability
Strange times
Yeah the sniper being on the train say's the London mob were preparing for potential action from the get go and your angle of doing their dirty work and culling the Northern mob makes sense.
I was on the line of were they potentially worried about Jack finding out about their potential involvement. Less likely but the fact the film starts with them watching a porn film and the tart in the mansion mentioning she knows them really well they come up all the time ect made me think they knew more than we assumed and that Jack was maybe doomed from the get go
What i love about this film though it's one of those where you know the expression show don't tell? well they don't really show you everything or tell you everything it's a lot of half conversations here and there you have to piece together to see what the timeline was and who the players were
I guess you could class this a a noir
Carter seems quite pleased with himself at the end...before the twist ending. At least he completed his mission!
lol yes he does. Remember in the book Carter lives but the film makers deliberately changed it so that he suffers some form of punishment because they wanted to throw in that moral that violent retribution can't be rewarded.
I do still like the ending it's tragic it's a brilliant film overall i wouldn't change a thing but i can see what they did there and i don't personally agree with it. Nor do most i think.
Wow i didn't catch that hinted incest aspect of Blame it on Rio i switched it off half way through but i was actually going to mention while seeing Caine in this role disturbed me the other father creeped me out way way more he was sleezier
Funny how Caine didn't want to be associated with Frenzy but went on to make Blame it on Rio
I think they all got what they deserved personally. Margaret was the one who directly set up Dory for the porno. And then after tried to distance herself from her saying she's nothing to do with her. It's stated by Jack that Margaret was effectively her mother ever since her real one ran off.
So she pimped her out causing a chain of events that led to her Fathers death and then removes herself of any blame and is then galivanting around town with her sunglasses on without a care in the world like nothing happened .
I know they like to push the narrative in films that by taking justice into your own hands you become like the monsters that did the crime against you but honestly fuck all that that's over intellectualizing the problem it's an eye for an eye all you have to remember is imagine it was your daughter then picture Margaret swanning around in those fucking sunglasses
Does Jack know it's Eric at this point though?
I thought that was revealed by the other woman from the film after he dunks her in the bath
I am as well
I was never that into the originals i saw the first one once years ago and don't think i've seen the second properly
The new trailer is so promising though it feels like this is going to be something a bit special
Just finished Day's again agree the quality of the film looks really cheap and dated but what a great film. The Brendan Gleeson parts are really emotional
Same, i heard negative reviews on this that it was all a bit of a half baked mish mash of ideas.
I loved Dogtooth and recently really liked The Lobster but The Favourite i couldn't get in to and haven't seen poor things.
The final one was really bizarre right up until the final moments when it became clear what was going on and i liked the tie in to the first segment
It' early days they might still be able to sell it but yes ultimately that's where i thought it would go with them getting to the outside maybe doing the Petey procedure and go back in pretending or something along those lines
There are scenes in the trailer of them running through snow so could be that it will go that way eventually
I haven't written it off i do have some faith but it's that thing where the characters got off the Island and now because it's S2 they have to justify them all going back. And i don't want that thing where they are in there for 4 of 5 seasons it could get a bit tedious there needs to be an end in sight if they get it right though it is an excellent series
