Pressure 2026 with Andrew Scott as meteorologist James Stagg and Brendan Fraser as Dwight D. Eisenhower

They face an impossible choice--launch the most dangerous seaborne invasion in history or risk losing the war altogether, the pair work to plan the Normandy landings during the World War II invasion in the tense 72 hours before D-Day.

The factual history of D-Day meteorologist James Stagg, his fierce clash with Irving Krick, and how accurately predicting a massive storm saved Operation Overlord in this historical deep dive.

Very interesting film.

Watched "Eye in the Sky" story revolves around a Colonel who has to make a decision to order a drone strike , on a terrorist hideout in Kenya ....wow its so complicated....involves studies in colateral damages, and all this is by remote so monitors show the actual pictures on the ground....this is how modern warfare is being conducted ....an eye opener for sure ....worth a watch ...

Burlesque - 2010
With Christina Aguilera & Cher.

I've got this one myself, don't often watch it though.
What a joy it was to do so, hotdanged great movie!
It always makes me emotional and cry a bit -which is why I don't watch it often, hihi. Reason being that Christina's voice is so beautiful and powerful.
The woman has a 4 octave vocal range?!?!
Freddy Mercury almost had that, same for Matt Bellamy (Muse) but she has it?!
Unreal.

She does all the dancing herself, trained for months for that. Really not easy as the dancing is intense and she has to sing simultaneously AND have the right facial expressions too.
But damn, does she pull it off!

Aside from that I love burlesque style dancing & outfits so yeah, just love love love the movie!

For me a 10. Top entertainment.

watched Fackham Hall 2025 with Damian Lewis, Hayley Mills & Tom Felton

It's a period satirical comedy film set in 1930s England. A new servant embarks on an unlikely relationship with the youngest daughter of a prominent English family. Simultaneously, rivalries are spilling over in the Davenport family, led by the Lord and Lady as they also weather the epic failure of the wedding of their eldest daughter to her caddish cousin.

Almost reminiscent of a Monty Python film, but not as weird. Good for a laugh tho...

I'm happy you posted about this one. I just watched it, and really impressed.
Excellent movie, very much worth the watch!
I rarely go for WW1 or WW2 movies, just not my thing, but his one was good!

watched Remarkably Bright Creatures 2026 with Sally Field and Lewis Pullman, and Alfred Molina providing the voice of Marcellus the octopus

What a great heart warming film. I really enjoyed this one. IMDb gives this a 7.7.. I give this one a solid 9.9

I saw the movie #Alive, The main protagonist kept making dumb decisions and at one point, my brother and I started rooting for him to die from the zombies but overall, great world building and had me feel sorry for the guy at times lol. It could honestly fit right in with Train to Busan.

Fuze - 2025
IMDB rating 6,2. I give it a 7,5.

Very enjoyable movie.

typical war-type movie.. IMDb gives 5.1.. I'd give this a 6.5-7 tho..

Interesting. I think I'm going to check that one out :)

And yeah this drone to-do is such a lame thing.
War is a stupid thing regardless but at least in the old days it was somewhat fair in most cases.
Using drones on countries that have little access to modern stuff... sad.
Some dude sitting miles away fiddling with a joystick to kill people.

Lockout - 2012
Not bad. Not a masterpiece but certainly interesting enough to keep watching.

watched Supergirl 2026 with Milly Alcock, Eve Ridley & Jason Momoa

Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, joins forces with an unlikely companion on an interstellar journey of vengeance and justice when an unexpected adversary strikes too close to home.

like any DC or Marvel movie, it's filled with lotsa action and big screen presence.. although not a huge Alcock fan, IMDb gives this a 6.1, I however give it a solid 8

Just watched Parker with Jason Statham & Nick Nolte.
Not his best movie but an okay watch.
Thing is I like to see more good fight scenes with him and this movie lacks in that sense.
But still worth the watch.

Just watched Kinsmem..The secret Service ....well made , special effects great ....The poor man's 007...what more can I say !!!
