Reuben, Reuben 1983
This film thinks it’s so witty but it ain’t.
Love Tom Conti which makes not liking this worse.

The Fifth Element 1997
I watched this movie a lot as a kid and thought it was one of the coolest movies.
Just watched it again and yes I can confirm it’s still one of coolest movies ever made.

Blow-Up 1966
Haven’t hated a film this much since France.
One gigantic middle finger to its audience, disguised in film theorist wankery and deconstruction (and I love film theory and deconstruction).
Everything I hate about this film, seems to be its point! And the point is there is no point.
One of the least nourishing cinematic experiences ever.

Mona Lisa 1986
Of the mini Hoskins-athon we’ve watched, this is probably my favourite of his performances and should have won the Oscar for.
Bravo for showing queer characters in a humanist way for this time period.
What starts as an odd couple romp turns into something much darker with the final act in full tragedy. Wonderful stuff.
