Overated Films....

I, foolishly, downloaded The Great Wall a while ago and decided to "treat" myself one Saturday night and watch it as the trailer looked fairly decent.

Up there with one of the worst films I've even seen.

Shit dialogue, wooden acting and poorly directed.

Anyhow, the trailers for Dunkirk look quite good, hope it lives up to expectations.

A film I absolutely love is 'Primer'. Made on a budget of 50p. It's about scientist / techie' type guys who actually create a time machine that works. The good thing about the film is that it tries to stick to 'the rules' if such rules exist about what would happen if such a machine existed and actually worked. I.E. They never travel back to a time before their machine existed, as they couldn't travel forward again to the present day. It's more about the moral dilemna of what it means - they don't go back to place bets on the lottery or such pish. Won't mention what the plot is though...
The term 'utter shite' may be used by some if they watch this 50p budget movie, but I love it.

I agree, Primer is a top notch piece of sci-fi but also a total head f**k.
The film is only 75 minutes long yet there is a 20 minute video on YouTube, made by a fan to try to explain it.
