And now, on with tonight's specific entertainment...
Commando โ Film4 โ 9pm
As highlighted above, Commando is indeed Arnie's most bonkers action movie. It might have his best collection of one-liners, too. A lean and very mean tale of one humble super-sized military specialist killer out to save his daughter โ they genuinely don't make them like this anymore.
The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult โ Comedy Central โ 9pm
The third one.
Swordfish โ Turner Classic Movies โ 9pm
Ridiculous, obnoxious but not entirely worthless turn-of-the-century cyber-thriller with John Travolta, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry and Don Cheadle.
Pitch Perfect 2 โ ITV2 โ 9pm
The second one.
Little Fockers โ E4 โ 9pm.
Iย think this is the third entry in the 'Meet the Parents' series but honestly I can't be bothered looking it up as this thing never should have gone beyond one film.
Rocky V โ ITV4 โ 9pm
Seriously, what is it with ITV4 and constantly playing Rocky movies?
Five Card Stud โ TG4 โ 9.25pm
TG4 delivering in the 'Friday night Western' stakes yet again.
I Feel Pretty โ RTร 2 โ 10pm
Vile enough 'comedy' with Amy Schumer.
Killers โ Virgin Media One โ 10.05pm
Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl appear to have a perfect marriage, only for a True Lies-esque scenario to happen along. Disclaimer โ this isn't as good as True Lies.
Terminator: Genisys โ Film4 โ 10.50pm
Rise of the Machines was never going to outdo Judgement Day. Salvation was a decent idea with a few interesting moments but overall something of a bust. Genisys, however? Yikes. This is basically the precise moment where the Terminator franchise became a complete waste of time โ and lots and lots of money.
Baywatch โ Channel 4 โ 11.05pm
The Rock and Zac Efron pay tribute to the kitsch '90s TV show.
Zero Dark Thirty โ Turner Classic Movies โ 11.10pm
Jessica Chastain wrestles with the difficult realities of bringing down Osama Bin Laden in Kathryn Bigelow's excellent thriller-drama hybrid.
The Zookeeper's Wife โ RTร One โ 11.15pm
Jessica Chastain again, this time risking her life by helping to hide hundreds of Jews from the Nazis.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine โ Film4 โ 1.15am
One of the GREAT 'so bad it's worth watching out of pure morbid curiosity' movies. Just an astonishing mess. It's truly shocking that we eventually got Logan after this.
