The film really showed what a British crew could, great British acting as well

I watched The Irishman in two parts. It was okay. For me, it didn’t have a strong enough line through the story so it felt like they could have lost an hour from it and nobody would have noticed or it might have even been stronger. The effects were weird and I found myself distracted by DeNiro’s eyes, which had some sort of glaze over them like someone from the intro to the original Resident Evil 2.

Dumbo. The new one. It was ok. I appreciated the way they got the original out of the way inside 40 minutes, and the rest concentrated on the next chapter. The effects were decent and the world building had a Bioshock Art Deco feel to it, which I loved. Enjoyed it, and the original is one of my top 3 Disneys.
The Lion King. Also the new one. Bar a few semi-amusing nods (Beauty and the Beast being one), this was practically a facsimile of the animation. As such, I enjoyed it, but it always felt like it lacked a drop of magic. Workmanlike rather than inspired. The effects are astonishing, though.

Vanishing Point
Didn't make it all the way through really, the set up is good but the execution has aged too much really. The flashbacks don't really reveal much that's of interest and as a car chase film it's pretty dull.
The Godfather
I actually sat and made it through, I think this is the first time I've ever watched the film and enjoyed it to a reasonable extent. I'd be lying if I said I saw in it the level of love many others do but it was a fine enough experience.
