8/10
Worth getting through the first 20 mins.

I really enjoyed this clever film. It was a bit predictable in places but also threw me a few times. I watched it with my wife and we wondered all the time weather/when it was going to get super natural. I will not spoil it for you, but we really enjoyed it and it was easy to follow the Italian and translation.

The setting is really good being set in a valley in the Dolomites. It had a Winter feel to it that adds to the tension. Once we got past the first 20 minutes which takes an age to set the plot we were lost in the story and I have thought about it quite a few times since watching it, which for me is the sign of a really good film.

Legend (I) (2015)
4/10
Weak

Great performance from Tom Hardy and the props department as Sixties London is well represented, but it's a love story. I preferred the 1990's film which focused on the matriarchal relationship more and again no real reference to the third Kray brother Charlie who was in it up to his neck.

I didn't like the monologue, which made no real sense and made it look like the film events happened over a year. Why anyone would give this film a high score beggars belief but i will now read some reviews to find out. I can only assume it's the social media generation getting carried away with the hype.
