Rocknrolla but not Snatch or Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels!? It's been a very long time but I distinctly remember being disappointed in rocknrolla when compared to the other two I mentioned.
Love Guy Ritchie!
Same! I think the only one I didn't really care for was Covenant, I felt it wasn't paced the same as his other movies, but I'd still watch it again if it was streaming.
In regards to Snatch and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, also two of my favorite movies, thanks for pointing them out, defintely a fun time!
+1 for In Bruges. Love Martin McDonagh's films and this one might be my favorite. At first glance, it looks like a kinda generic action movie, but that's not the case at all.
Snowpiercer looked like such a dumb action movie, but I read so many good reviews of it that I decided to try it. Was not disappointed at all!
Agreed! I honestly not sure which was the most messed up of all the revelations
I quote In Bruges anytime I get angry at an inanimate object lol
There is a Train to Busan sequel?!?!?
That infromation just made my day, loved the first one.
There is! Peninsula IMHO it wasn't better/as good/worse than the first, it was just different
