  It should have been called A Quiet Place: Day 1 and 2.

  Kneecap 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  The bit with the mum singing at the end nearly made me cry. 

  Enjoyed the blend of humour, silliness and a serious message around the world’s indigenous peoples. 

  Might start learning Irish on Duolingo. 

  Trochia ar la!

  Das Boot 1981

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Apr 2024

  The incredible thing about this movie is its ability to make the viewer feel the boredom, comradery, stress, fear, insanity and pressure of being at war in a submarine. 

  A rare movie about WWII from a German perspective. 

  It accurately conveys the senselessness of war. 

  One of my favourite movies of all time.

  The Zookeeper's Wife 2017

  ★½ Watched 27 Apr 2024 1

  Fascinating real life story. Poor production all round. 

   Jessica Chastain was an odd  / wrong casting choice. 

  Poor execution of a good story.
