The 15:17 to Paris (2018)
Very impressed by acting of the principles.
I thought that the participnts did a great job of playing themselves convincingly in this true story. The first half was a bit slow but the emotional ending made up for that. Well worth seeing.
Hacksaw Ridge (2016)
Why didn't the Japanese cut the climbing nets down?
I really couldn't get over the fact that there was no attempt by the Japanese to cut down the professional climbing nets which gave the Americans access to the ridge!! Surely that would have been their most urgent task when they rested at night.. A very moving story however but to write ten lines about it is expecting too much. All I wanted to do was make the above comment.I really couldn't get over the fact that there was no attempt by the Japanese to cut down the professional climbing nets which gave the Americans access to the ridge!!

Stone of Destiny (2008)
Let down by design, make up and research dept
Some nice photography but the film is let down by aggravating inaccuracies. Hair is too modern for 1950. Car registration CLS and NLS were never used. Used blatant Glasgow and Edinburgh style streets as Westminster. Women were not frequenters of pubs in the fifties. Westminster bridge with bus lanes and road markings are obviously 21st century. Surely some archive could have been used as no actors were involved. Country roads had no white lines until late fifties. And lastly, police vehicles did not have sirens until the sixties. Police men had whistles and cars had bells. Acting pretty good on the whole and I didn't spot the leading actress' accent as non Scottish (I'm Scot) or any Canadian locations. I'm surprised that the writer didn't notice some of these.
A Bunch of Amateurs (2008)
Midsomer murders without a body~
My wife hit it on the head by saying it was really a TV film and like Midsomer Murders without the Murders!
That's all I really wanted to say except that the performances were generally good and Burt Reynolds wig was excellent and looked almost real. I'm now trying to make this up to ten lines but don't really have that much to say and wish that short, pertinent comments were allowed. Oh I've just remembered that Suffolk suddenly had hills, moved presumably from the Isle of Man so that the film had a tax subsidy. I'm really struggling now to say anything else but I would like these comments to be seen by filmgoers. Phew
