Welcome back to another week of the BEST & WORST edition of 'what movies did you see last week?' thread. For those who haven't been part of it before, basically your host (me) posts my weekly movies and you can comment on those and list your movie for the same time frame. I will get back to you on yours and you can talk to other users here about their films. It's a great place to talk about film.
FIRST TIME MOVIE VIEWING
Dear Murderer (1947, Arthur Crabtree) This is a very taut British crime thriller with some fun twists and plenty of interesting characters. 7/10
The October Man (1947, Roy Ward Baker) This British crime thriller has some good moments throughout but feels a little lifeless for much of its runtime. Is well enough made with a good cast but lacks magic. 5.5/10
Outrage (1950, Ida Lupino) This film noir is not one of Lupino’s best. It starts strong but the rest of it kind of Peters out. 4.5/10
REPEAT MOVIE VIEWING
The Karate Kid (1984, John G. Avildsen) UHD A masterwork in storytelling and character development. 8.5/10
