Movies on TV Friday 7 June

Movies, movies, movies.

It’s about that time.

The time when we come together to see what movies are on the television on a given evening.

That’s the whole article, folks.

Here’s how it looks on this Friday 7 June…

X-Men 2 – Film 4 – 6.25pm

The best one by quite some distance.

Dodgeball – Film 4 – 9pm

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel – RTÉ One – 9.35pm

Decent pensioner-fuelled comedy.

The Game – TCM – 9pm

Michael Douglas plays for his life.

The Rock – ITV4 – 9pm

One of the finest action movies of the 90s.

Snake Eyes – Film 4 – 10.50pm

Nicolas Cage whodunnit that opens with a fantastic piece of on-the-move filmmaking and never quite meets the same standard for the remainder. Enjoyable, all the same.

Hanna – TCM – 11pm

Saoirse Ronan goes all super-assassin.

Rocky IV – RTÉ 2 – 12.40am

Rocky versus the Soviet Union!

Killing Them Softly – Channel 4 – 1.05am

Excellent grim and gritty thriller that features the best hair of Brad Pitt’s career and a killer closing line.

LISTEN: You Must Be Jokin’ with Aideen McQueen – Faith healers, Coolock craic and Gigging as Gaeilge
