  Prey 2022

  ★★★★ Watched by Iain Dickie 07 Aug 2022

  Star making turn from Amber Midthunder who is fantastic, Prey is a good example of a less is more addition to a franchise, that hasn’t bowed down to the nostalgia of the original film, but still feels like part of the series.

  Total Recall 1990

  ★★★★★ Watched by Iain Dickie 11 Aug 2012 10

  I watched this in Glasgow's GFT last night with a room of like-minded people who appreciate the cheesy wonder of this excellent sci-fi.

  The one liners were cheered and received mighty laughs, which made the film even better.

  I even thought the special effects stood up and the eye popping scenes were great.

  If you get the chance to see it in a cinema do so, it really enhances the film greatly.

  Highlight of the film was my brother hitting the giggles for about 5 minutes and starting me off.

  Great stuff.

  Paths of Glory 1957

  ★★★★★ Watched by Iain Dickie 06 Apr 2012 3

  An absolutely devastating WW1 film about a group of soldiers asked to perform an impossible mission by their ruthlessly ambitious captain. Three innocent men must stand trial for cowardice, defended by their Colonel a brilliant Kirk Douglas.

  Showing the futility of war and the position many soldiers must have been in being lead by clueless and ruthless leaders.

  This film blew me away.
