A bloody masterpiece…
It’s Blue Monday, apparently.
In the immortal words of The Cure, “I don’t care if Monday’s blue”.
You know what I DO care about, though?
Lots of great movies on the telly.
Here’s JOE’s top picks for the small screen tonight.
Captain Phillips – ITV4 – 9pm
“Look at me… I am the film watcher now.”
Logan – Film4 – 9pm
Our top pick for tonight is easily one of the best Marvel films ever released.
In fact, calling it a Marvel film would be to do it a disservice – it’s just brilliant.
Hugh Jackman gives the performance of a lifetime in his final outing as Wolverine, and they really upped the ante with this one.
A more adult take on the superhero genre, this film has lots of blood, gore, and an emotional centre.
Must see cinema.
The Happening – Sony Movie Channel – 9pm
M Night Shyamalan combines his trademark style of horror with Mark Wahlberg.
The Death of Stalin – TG4 – 9.30pm
Stalin is dead. Hilarity ensues. We’re serious, this film is gas altogether.
Alfie – Turner Classic Movies – 11.20pm
Michael Caine is a very cheeky chappy, indeed.
Oblivion – ITV4 – 11.40pm
Not an adaptation of the Elder Scrolls, unfortunately.
Loving Vincent – Film 4 – 11.45pm
65,000 oil paintings were created for this animated film about the life of Vincent Van Gogh.
