Dipping into the archives. Shit history, but epic-tier drama. O’Toole eats every inch of scenery… twice.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World about breakfast cereal made by Hanna-Barbera. The movie aspect is secondary. I enjoyed it. My dad felt it was too “try-hard”. We both laughed. There are some genuinely good one-liners.

Mankind's only chance is to harness the power of stupid.

The Lion in Winter
Finished the O’Toole as Henry II opus. Holy shit this is a masterpiece. The banter between him and Hepburn is unparalleled. Also, best dysfunctional family Christmas movie ever.

Yeah, it really is a masterpiece. Probably my favorite O’Toole movie.

Hugh Grant is superb. He's become a national treasure and sublime at gently undermining his old image.
The wheel film was a pile of chaotic madness and all the better for it. Less try hard than say "Mortdecai" the Johnny Depp comedy that I do actually quite like.

With all that going against it, Hugh Grant hits a grand slam. The weak parts are worth it for him.

Grant seems to be able to suss-out the appropriate level of give-a-fuck a film requires, and then nails it hard.

Not crap, but should have been better. Surprisingly wholesome. Excellent hayseed performances.

Lion in Winter is amazing. O’Toole is just as awe inspiring as he was in Lawrence of Arabia, in a totally different context. Kate is totally believable as a woman deeply in love with the man she also wants to oust as king. I was surprised to learn that Anthony Hopkins played Richard - that just slid past me with the awesomeness of the two leads.
I haven’t been disappointed by Hugh Grant.

Solid. Reacher is awesome.
Cavill’s beard gets 5 stars.
