Charles the best Robot film ever made
24 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I loved everything about this movie as it was just so heart warming and a good feel good film. Brian a loner builds Charles a tall robot from an old washing machine with a dummy's head , who is funnier than Lord Charles the dummy ( remember him ? ) What with some really funny lines in this film and with Charles being so likeable . Charles just wants to see the world especially Honolulu in a grass skirt. Brian tries his best to keep him in hiding but to no avail. I like films to be a hour & half long usually, but this one I wanted to watch it for hours as it was that good. So I recomend this film to everyone just give it a chance it's brill.

Yet another great subtitled foreign film this time made in France
9 January 2022
Loved this film , just one thing keep watching it as at first I thought it was a film broken down into short films , but no it's so clever it entwines all the characters and brings them into the film as the characters are linked to each other.

The acting is first class by everyone in it and keeps you entertained all through the film. I have seen some great foreign films in my time and this is another one. Give it a go it's on Netflix.

Edge of your seat film
12 January 2021
Start to finish this film drags you in , I loved it one of the best films that I have seen on this type of genre. The characters all played their part well and you could imagine sadly a world now sinking to this low level of life . still a great watch and will watch this one again of which I don't often do that as there is that many films out there to watch. i fully recommend you watch this one , very rare I give a score of 10 for a film unless it's class.

Pihu (2016)
10/10
Pihu's a little star
29 September 2019
This must be one of the very best subtitled films ever that I have seen, and I watch a lot of foreign subtitled films. The little girl is a true star . Her acting so real , it brings you into the picture. For me it's the best film of this year easy , it keeps you on edge from the beginning to the end. And to think this is based on a true story. I can gladly say I don't want the hour and a half back of my life watching this one. Just watch it.

Chicken (III) (2015)
9/10
Don't chicken out on seeing this one.
6 April 2017
Warning: Spoilers
What a marvelous emotional film this is , riveting from the beginning to the end. Scott Chambers plays Richard a fifteen year old lad with learning difficulties who talks to alive and dead animals with a chicken being his best pal. and what a part he plays so well.

He lives in a dirty run down caravan with his bullying brother Polly , who is under pressure seeing to him every day. but Richard is such a nice lad you can't help but like him , when he does daft stuff,but when he makes a friend in a wealthy rich girl whose family own the land that they are living on in their caravan things look up a bit for him.I won't tell you much more about this film only to watch it , as the acting is first class from everyone in it. I gave this film a 9 out of 10 and that's a huge score from me , but the film deserves it.

The Breed (2006)
7/10
Good Dawgie Horror Tale
12 March 2017
This is a well made horror film , and i liked it. When i saw that Wes Craven was involved as the executive producer in this film ,it gave me hope for it, and i was not disappointed. The dogs played their big part too as in being very realistically menacing , like real savage junkyard dogs.The acting was good by the humans too , with a decent enough story, so i say go watch this film, it's about as good as Stephen Kings Cujo.

i give this 7 out of 10 which is a good score from me.

Plan Z (2016)
Plan Z Worked for Me
29 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Plan Z is one of the better zombie movies out there , and there is quite a few zombie movies about these days i am glad to say. but not all good though like this one, i liked this zombie film a lot , never got tired of it, a simple but good story , sort of thing i would have done under the same situation , in what the main character was trying to do as in trying to get to the Isle of Skye from Dunfirmline in Scotland as it is less populated so would be safer .And as one reviewer put some lovely scenery up there as seen in the film . Stuart Brennan and Mark Paul Wake played great lead parts, as everyone who acted in this film , not loads of action in the film but enough to sustain it and keep me occupied and happy that i watched Plan Z.

The Monster of Mangatiti (2015 TV Movie)
8/10
A Class True Movie film
20 December 2015
Watched this little gem on Netflix. i have seen many a good true movie film , this is up there with the best of the true movie films.Well directed and great acting by everyone involved. They all played their part well. Only sad thing was this was a true movie. You wonder why Heather Walsh the lady prisoner , did not escape earlier , but all is explained well enough throughout the film. Sorry if i have spoiled anything in saying that.

Filmed in New Zealand which looks a beautiful place , so some nice scenery in the film too.Seen many a blockbuster that's been disappointing , this one can teach them how to make a film on fraction of the money of some crash bang wallop so called big films.

Nailbiter (2013)
5/10
Half Decent Horror
25 March 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this film on the Horror channel.One of their better films.

I liked the idea of the story to this film , a good claustrophobic horror

type. The four women locked up in the cellar delivered a realistic and good acting was the key here well portrayed in the film. Right so it more or less starts with a mother and her three daughters driving down a country road , while trying to escape from a tornado , they all take refuge in a storm cellar , unfortunate for them they pick the wrong house. I won't disclose any more information about this film , just leave it to you to make your mind up on this one , but I thought the film was OK , and very watchable , if like me you like your horror films in general. I give it a vote of 5 for effort , and the ending for this horror film was not bad to boot.

Interstellar (2014)
2/10
So Disappointed
1 February 2015
Think I did well to give this film a 2. Was looking forward to this film after reading the 8.8 it got on IMD. I did well to bat it out to the end of the film , but I do have lots of patience. It did try me to the limit, but once I watch a film I do like to finish watching it.The film was miles too long anyway, you could have cut this film down by half and it would still have been boring, I do like some science fiction films , just not this one.Truth did not like this film at all, but it did inspire me to join IMDb just to say how bad this film is.Been thinking for a while to join IMDb for reviewing films , so at least Interstellar the film did something positive for me.
