    I thought Smith and Edgerton's chemistry was spot on to be honest.

    They two and Lucy Fry who played Tika were brilliant together.

    Guardians of the Galaxy 2

    Pretty average. Haven't watched any superhero films in a while because of how repetitive they are, but the first Guardians was my favourite MCU film. Thought I may as well watch the second.

    Some really funny moments, mainly Drax...but pretty forgettable.

    Hardy is brilliant. Crazy Jew in Peaky Blinders. But I still prefer the original Krays film from 1988 with the Kemp brothers.

    Watched Bright last night and for all it fails to do, I still mildly enjoyed it.

    Just watched American Made there, decent watch but Tom Cruise is hard to like:giggle1:

    Tried to watch the new Bladerunner anaw but it was putting me to sleep.

    Daddy's home 2 (2017)
    Mark Whalberg, Will Ferrell, Mel Gibson and John Lithgow.
    Pretty light hearted follow up comedy. This is a festive themed comedy and works well at this time of year. Don't like the guy but Ferrell is the class act here. Suitable for the whole family. Just a few cuss words.
    7/10

    As a fan of the man's work I felt this film only really scratched the surface of who Tupac was and his rise to fame. This should have been a 2 or 3 part mini series. Because the man's entire life has been crammed into 140 minutes it feels like when you are just starting to get interested in a part of his life it cuts to another bit completely. Strange how his step-brother is not mentioned considering they collaborated several times in their music careers. Not much about his acting either, other than a wee bit of his filming of Juice. Dunno why they got a music video director to direct this as his first major motion picture? Credit to the casting director, the young guy who plays Tupac is a dead ringer for the man. They could possibly be related. Marlo from The Wire makes an appearance as Mr Shakur, Tupac's Stepfather.

    I could only really recommend this to fans of Tupac, others may find it lacking any real substance or storytelling.

    Absolute shambles of a movie. Total fabrication of Tupac’s life.

    The 'Tupac: Resurrection' documentary from 2003 is worth checking out,probably the most effective telling of his life.It's official,and not just some cheap cash-in.
