I loved this film. I work in the equivalent agency in Ireland and there are those who would have us go the way the UK system is. I advised some of them to watch this film as a warning of what that would actually mean to people.
Patriots day= Found this to be so much better than I thought.
Highlights some brilliant stories of individuals involved on that horrific day of the Boston marathon.
Police work in pursuit of the 2 bombers is excellent and brave in equal measure.
Found it to be uplifting and moving by just dealing in fact. The finale of the film with the survivors is emotional and leaves you with a good feeling.
Wish this had never taken place but at least we have a film that captures the legacy of a City standing together and basically making the losers actions look totally futile no matter how sad.

Yeh the ending blew me away, Star Wars has always been a little too childish for my tastes but that film tried to make a transfusion to suit older audiences that aren’t just obsessed with nostalgia.
What are you all talking about?! Love Actually Is a masterpiece. Some mulled wine while watching Love Actually is something of a Christmas tradition now
It’s not even particularly romantic because the attitudes towards women displayed in the film are just retrograde. I just can’t see the appeal in it at all.
Oh it’s sexist for sure, it’s like a male fantasy film where the women are concerned. But I don’t take it too seriously, afterall nothing in the film is realistic - I mean in what other universe could Kris Marshall visit Wisconsin and have a “fivesome” with 4 really hot girls?! Obviously it’s not really a “masterpiece” but it’s fun with relatively happy endings and it’s very easy to watch - which is perfect when you’re just lazing around and not really concentrating.
