Andy’s Verdict: Pulp Fiction on the move.
Release: July 15.
It’s supposed to be a teaser not the whole film! No interest now.
That actually looks like fun. I’d forgotten what a fun film looks like.
I also like the looks of this one

Which is two more films that I’ve liked the look of than any time since, I dunnno, when did the first Dune trailer come out?
Just for the heck of it I went an ordrered the book from the library. Mad! I know!
I liked the first John Wick, gave up on both Deadpool movies about 30 minutes in. I did manage the entire of Atomic Blond but I was asleep for about 90% of it. Am sure it was good though….
Soooooooo, it will be no from me.
