we get a sequel, I'm hoping we get the flashback scene where Nicky (Nicolo) and Joe (Yusef) "met".



Yeah, that would be fairly entertaining to have as a short scene.

I enjoyed this one a good bit, Charlize was good as usual. Interested to see where they go with the sequel.

If you don't think Hollywood has an agenda for sex and race that is being swayed by current political winds, you are either lying to yourself or you are stupid.

It's clear from that list above that action movies have changed so much from the Golden era of your nostalgia.


And for the 3rd time in as many posts, I thought Charlize did a good job and actually enjoy her in these roles. But by all means continue your personal rant while I try and have a meaningful discussion.

Thought it was good. Charlize is excellent in these roles

The gay baws scene was a little cringe but probably because I’m the opposite of a romantic

Atomic blonde was good because Charlize’s character got her arse whooped and she had to fight technically rather than square up and throw hands bare knuckle brawler style.

Plus it came along at the right time with a run on 80s nostalgia and went balls deep on the sights and sounds of the era.

Well I haven't watched old guard, but I tried to give Eurovision a fair shake and it was garbage.. I was more entertained by David Spade's new flick on Netflix..

It was enjoyable and has potential to go further. I'm interested in more of a back story and can see this as a potential series.

Just finished. Really enjoyed it and would like to see the sequel. Felt like Andy was dying for the entire 2nd half of the movie. Thought it would have been a better ending if Andy took the dive out of the window.

I am the only one who thought this movie was a obviously similar to the Highlander? Immortals appearing at random. Other immortals showing up on the scene. They dreamed of other immortals, ie the quickening.

I thought the movie was really good. I actually thought Charlize Theron’s character was good. The only thing I rolled my eyes at was the gay scene. It felt totally ham-fisted in there. It made no sense and was never brought up or mentioned again. Ridiculous they just have to throw that shite into EVERY movie and tv show now.

It was straight from the comic book the movie is based on.

Well they should have done a better job of developing the characters. I’m fine with gay people in movies. But they hardly even showed their relationship at all and then all of a sudden boom. Gay kiss scene seemingly out of nowhere.
