Treasure Island (1972) A scratchy pan and scan TV broadcast was a bad start. Orson Welles' voice being dubbed over was inexcusable. 1/10
The Great Wall (2016) Simple-minded, cliché-ridden spectacle. 4/10
Queen of Katwe (2016) Slightly over-long but decent drama "based on a true story". 6.5/10
Hidden Figures (2016) Excellent companion piece to "The Right Stuff", my favourite movie of the 80s. 8.5/10
The Legend of Tarzan (2016) An abomination. 2/10

The Nice Guys (2016) A mismatched buddies crime comedy/drama set in the 70s. 7.5/10
and every 4 or 5 years there's this -
The Godfather (1972) Close to perfect. 10/10
The Godfather: Part II (1974) Imperfect but kudos for being SO ambitious. 10/10
The Godfather: Part III (1990) A bit of a mess and Eli Wallach overacts outrageously. 6.5/10
