Tenet  is a film that I watched at Cineworld. Starring John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Kenneth Branagh. Directed by Christopher Nolan. Scifi thriller. There is a lot to unpack. You try and figure out what is going on. I like the concept. I will look at theories and discussions. Expect twists. Clever filmmaking. Great actors, effects and editing. Usually loud in the cinema. Some guy was on his phone in the beginning and a lady asked him to switch it off. If you enjoyed Bourne or Bond films then you should see this. The Protagonist is a special agent. He is on a mission. They want to prevent WW3. A weapons dealer had got hold of something valuable. He teams up with Neil to see what he can find. The dealer's wife is an art dealer. She is in this unhappy relationship. Some experiments had been run and they discovered a way to manipulate time. I am interested in this type of thing. I have noticed how handsome Robert is. The music does overwhelm the dialogue at some point.
I watched Ready Or Not. A horror comedy. Gory violence. Good special effects and a great cast of actors. I only saw a minute of the trailer and decided that I wanted to see this. Pretty women. Samara does remind me of Margot Robbie. Interesting filming location. I have worked in venues like that. Imagine it like Downton Abbey meets The Purge. Grace has just married Alex. His family are very rich. On the wedding night there is a family custom where the newcomer must play a game. Unfortunately it is Hide And Seek. Grace must survive the night. Nice soundtrack. You should see this. Cast: Samara Weaving as Grace Le Domas, Alex's young bride and wife Adam Brody as Daniel Le Domas, Emilie and Alex's alcoholic brother, Charity's husband, Tony and Becky's son, and Helene and Charles' nephew Etienne Kellici as young Daniel Le Domas Mark O'Brien as Alex Le Domas, Grace's husband, Daniel and Emilie's brother, Helene and Charles' nephew, and Tony and Be
Palm Springs  is romcom scifi film. Produced by Lonely Island and exclusive to Hulu. I rarely watch anything with Andy Samberg in it. It is a good film. With the concept of a time loop I was interested. Niles is a young man living in Palm Springs. A wedding ceremony is to take place. You have a variety of characters. The maid of honour Sarah meets with him and they both would get stuck in a time loop. Interesting to see what the background is of this phenomenon. How long has Niles been reliving the day. This also had reminded me of The Wedding Singer. The soundtrack is OK. Cristina Milioti, JK Simmons, Tyler Hoechlin also star. 
 I watched  Bill and Ted face the music It is the third and final instalment. Bringing some of the old cast together. There are cringeworthy moments. Whether the cast are trying too hard, some of the well known musicians from history or the two daughters. It is an entertaining film. I recommend that you see the old ones. Present day San Dimas. Bill and Ted are middle aged family men. They hadn't written the song that would unite mankind. All of reality is at stake. The guys will try and find a solution with use of the booth. I see some recasts. The princesses would be the same age but they are played by younger actors. Good special effects. Nice location. The daughters are pretty. The film is on streaming services but should get a cinema release later.  Cast Genres :   Adventure ,  Comedy ,  Music ,  Sci-Fi Actors :   Keanu Reeves ,  Alex Winter ,  Kristen Schaal Directors :   Dean Parisot Countries :   USA ,  Canada ,  Italy Writers :   Chris Matheson , 
I have just watched Coma. A Russian film with English dub. Scifi. If you like The Matrix and Inception then this is for you. A young architect is in a coma after being in a car accident. He awakes in a strange new world. Stunning visual effects. There he meets a handful of survivors. There a these monsters called Reapers. There is a nice twist. He wants to try to get back to the real world. Worth checking out.

I watched a scifi horror named Shifter. For some reason I felt that I had seen it before. Released early this year. Theresa is single woman living on a farm. She works at the local factory. She is awkward, annoying when with her cat. Plenty of vomit scenes which I could have done without. She had built a time machine. Uses to travel to the past. But things have gone wrong. She desperately tries to figure out a solution. The effects aren't bad. Minimal cast in this indie flick. Director: Jacob Burns Screenplay: Jacob Burns Cast: Paul T. Taylor, Nicole Fancher, Katy Atkinson, Jacob Snovel, Leesa Neidel, more Producers: Zach Burns, Vinnie Hogan.  I recognised the actress playing the friendly neighbour. She was the con artist in season one of Friends. You also might like Primer.
