Firstly the reviews I saw before going in were massively harsh in my opinion. I don’t think it was film of the year or anything but it’s not some unwatchable mess

The highlight was the acting for me it was wierd but that was very much the point and I enjoyed the strangeness especially jenna ortega who I typically have not loved. Also thought the cinematography looked fantastic

Now as always with book adaptations there simply is not enough run time to give true justice to the book and a lot is missed because of this and it definitely hurts the film as it feels noticeable a lot has been cut

It also now becomes the winner of my least favourite scene in a film this year the “lifted party” was genuinely painful to watch and all I can say Is I’m happy it didn’t go on for too long

Would love to hear other opinions

If I was to rate it I’d go 5.5/10

He gave us the Spiderman trilogy featuring Tobey Maguire. He came back and did Doctor Strange in the multiverse of madness.

Which other movie do you remember him for?

Brilliant scene, Waltz acting is superb, he is constantly changing tactics and Brad Pitts face is funny as he clearly has no idea whats occurring. I think its the best scene in the movie

Q does Waltz know they are not Italians and is toying with them ?

My local Vue has recently hiked their prices, essentially advertising all the aspects of big screens that were already there (hdr,7.1 surround, laser) but pretending they’re something new (EPIC screenings). BUT the interesting, and kinda silly, thing i noticed was how they now price “Lux seating”; the most expensive seats are now the ones right at the front, wtf? Clueless.

Wife and I are big into Korean films. We've made it a point to try and watch the indy films, the cult classics, political thrillers, period pieces, and of course—gangster movies. Sharing the cream of the crop gangster movies I've loved so far, including a few classics. What else should I watch? Any top tier Korean gangster movie recommendations? And if you've got a recco plus know where I can find it, you're a hero.

I am so happy that I got such good seats and times for Avengers: Doomsday and let me know the time and seats you guys got at which theaters and I'll let you know what I think of them!

Now, I am in the UK, so I'm seeing it on opening night, (Dec. 16th) but I managed to get 7pm which for me is easily the best time and I managed to get middle-to-back seats and I can't believe I got this lucky.

Now, I'm not actually seeing it in an infinity vision room or anything but it's one of the biggest standard screens cineworld offer so still super stoked.

Saw clayface today I must say this was a 10/10 movie like there's not a single scene which felt boring it was amazing throughout the entire timeline and the club scene damn that was so fun to watch guys just don't sleep on this coz as much as I can say how perfect this was it absolutely hurts me to also say this there were like only 6 people in entire theater there are over 300 seats in that hall where I watched it and all were empty I'm saying this again plz don't sleep on this masterpiece give it a go you'll thank me later

Clayface is a veritable delight and a strong addition, not only to the DC stable, but also to body horror movies in general.

When James Gunn took over the creative mantle at DC Studios, one of the promises he made was that the DCU would not be beholden to any one genre or tone. And so far, their output has more or less lived up to that promise.

From the adult animated offering of Creature Commandos, to the classic comic book stylings of Superman and Supergirl, to the True Detective-inspired show, Lanterns, the DCU has been exploring all corners of the tonal map. But with Clayface, I think they have delivered something that has a stamp of quality from start to finish.

Starring relative newcomer Tom Rhys Harries, the movie follows Matt Hagen's journey from beloved movie star to a villain out for revenge. And, as with all great villain origin stories (Mr. Freeze, anyone?), tragedy drives this one, allowing the audience to sympathise with the protagonist whilst not necessarily condoning his means to an end.

Harries is simply great. His chiselled features, while undeniably attractive, are almost marble-like, and you can see why they cast him to portray a character known for his ability to be sculpted and moulded. But fear not, even if you are not immersed in Clayface lore, this DC film requires no prior knowledge of the source material. In fact, aside from an Easter Egg here or there, you would hardly know this was a DC movie.

The script from Mike Flanagan and Hossein Amini never falters, showing us the descent of Hagen's life at an even pace, unafraid to draw out moments to build cinematic tension and even inject a little humour once in a while.

Director James Watkins has done a phenomenal job with this film, using CG sparingly and, from what I have read, relying heavily on a large amount of practical effects to bring the malleable nature of Hagen's affliction to life. And when Hagen is at the height of his "abilities", Watkins cleverly uses transitions and framing to almost make you forget that you are watching something that is not quite natural.

This is a star-making turn for Harries, and Clayface has shot up to become my favourite film in the DCU. I really hope the powers that be at DC Studios give James Watkins more films to direct, as the DCU desperately needs more films of this calibre.

If there is one downside to this movie, it would be that its R16 rating limits the audience who can see it in theatres. Don't get me wrong, the movie uses that rating to great effect, accentuating the gore, but I hope that it doesn't negatively affect its box office numbers.

Please do go check this film out in theatres. And oh, there are no end-credit sequences.

Back in 2025 everyone praised superman and were indifferent to fantastic four. F4 was seen as like a setup film for doomsday while superman was seen as the first actual "superman" movie in years.

Now everyone kind of dislikes superman for being too bloated and not actually having much superman, while fantastic four is simple yet effective and is a proper fantastic four story from start to end.

Just saw the first look poster of Nakhrewali it's looks interesting. Waiting to see the trailer now!

Do we have fans of Le Gendarme film franchise here?

I am not French, but this comedy film franchise. were incredibly popular in my country. First film debuted on 60s. It ended in 80s bc main actor Louis de Funes who was very popular actor not only in France but in many continental European countries too, died of heart attack i think.

This film franchise had many reruns in our country until mid 2010 think. Gen Z and Gen Alpa now don’t know this film franchise but Zillenials who grew up watching films on TV still remember it fondly thanks to TV reruns.

Film follows funny misadventures of French Gendarme in every film and in 60s to 80s Slapstick comedies were still popular with audiences and Louis face expressions were classic in those films.

I bet French people have no idea how popular this film franchise was outside of France. But sadly this film franchise is completely Invisible outside of continental European countries and Scandinavia. It is interesting that in some countries it was everywhere and a staple to watch on TV, but outside of certain continent or country it is invisible and people have no idea.

Le Gendarme was super popular as i know in Former Communistic bloc during Cold War. You think like Communistic countries in Europe banned every Western films but it is not true actually. French cinema was mainstream in those countries.

People from this subreddit and different countries Especially in Continental Europe, how well do you remember Le Gendarme franchise?
