Film Opinion: I wrote this 3 years ago in December.
HOPSCOTCH a Walter Matthau film, where we see him drive a Ford Escort in the UK! Hopscotch is a fine way to spend 106 minutes of anyone’s time. #hopscotchfilm #waltermatthau #glendajackson #film #movie #filmopinion #REALFilmCricket

Die Alone (2024) a Canadian (hoorah!) horror-zombie-tale which tries really hard to do something different. Lowell Dean and his cast and crew succeed. You might have a different opinion that's okay here's mine! #DieAlone #CanadianFilms

Well I'm not allowed to paint actors & sell the prints apparently but no one can stop me writing my opinion - they can by ignoring me I suppose - but I'm still doing it.

Here's my latest film opinion; the 2022 British horror comedy Wolf Manor (Scream of the Wolf in the USA). It's camp/cheap and not good but not as bad as some say. I can see why others might hate it though😀 #film #movies #realfilmcricketopinion #realfilmcricket #WolfManor #filmopinion

Love Again (2023) a daft, heart-string tugging, romantic comedy, not some great artistic piece that will change the world, approach it for what it is and it is a good film. Set in New York but oddly full of British actors #LoveAgain #film #movieopinion #filmopinion #realfilmcricket

Repeat after me, this is a romantic comedy with a sad tinge, that’s it, not a realistic war story or superhero film….just trying to help.

Soylent Green (1973) no one likes these on BS, but I will keep writing them. I have checked and I had 2 views on my last opinion piece, I'm getting popular - or stalked? An interesting film that has little to do with the book bit.ly/4dGpBZt #film #movies #filmopinion #realfilmcricket #soylentgreen

The Last Video Store (2023), fun, nostalgic horror-comedy with the main actor acting in a recreation of the video store he owned apparently. Please ignore this post, don't go to my site to read my reviews, as normal 😆 #film #movies #thelastvideostore #canadianfilms #realfilmcricket

Another post that will get no traction. I like writing it seems people don't like reading it. Panic in Year Zero, which seemed far-fetched and cynical about US citizens, now in 2025 I would imagine it might be more accurate #film #movies #PanicinYearZero #RealFIlmCricket #FIlmOpinion

A new REAL Film Cricket opinion has been posted!
The Final Programme (1973), Robert Fuest's take on Michael Moorcock's story (Moorcock hated it). It is very 70s, very disjointed, but not boring. Full Review is here.
