that was the heyday of tech films - I couldn't even watch beyond 10 mins of the latest star wars (saved it to try again later)

I had a feeling I would think the same, but would go just for the novelty after so many months. I speak as someone who went about twice a week pre covid!

Well I?m going to go against the tide and say I bloody loved it. Not Kenneth Branagh?s atrocious accent or Elizabeth Debicki?s mournful looks (such a waste of a great actress) but the rest was fabulous. Bonkers and in no way scientifically accurate (!) but beautifully shot and nicely wrapped up at the end. Long though.

Saw it, didn't follow it, read the below, still don't know what the hell happened 🤣🤣🤣


I still enjoyed it, though 🤣


We saw it up the road, there were only four people there!

Empire described it as "bonkers". I agree. Bonkers in a good way, though!


All the acting was brilliant, apart from Michael Caine, who just seemed to be going through the motions. But then - he's Michael Caine .....


Oh, and there were a few good jokes amongst the violence 🤣

Are you talking about the fact that Marty didn't have Parkinsons's in the future?

    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
    • > however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. So what leads you to say that the dustmen have done damage to it? 
    • Prayed in aid?!
