    “Have the lambs stopped screaming?”

    A constant, unsettling build up of tension that doesn’t let you breathe until the credits roll.

    Obviously Hopkins steals the movie, but Foster and Levine both deliver expertly intense performances which often go overlooked.

    Not just a top tier thriller, but a top tier movie

    “We all have it coming, kid”

    Top tier western and next level dad movie, portraying the moral underbelly of the cowboy genre. Gene Hackman completely steals the film but Clint Eastwood is badass as usual.

    RIP Gene Hackman - there’s a reason people said he was one of the greats

    “What a man can do to another man”

    A harrowing display of the fragility of human life and one of the more brutal war movies I’ve seen, being immensely tense from start to finish

    All of the leading cast deliver outstanding performances, Shia LaBoeuf’s being a personal favourite, and the dialogue was expertly written

    Plus everything Jon Bernthal touches turns to gold
