Life
First signs of spring proper. Longer and warmer days and the snow has thawed a lot quicker than expected. Nice.
Media
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri – loved it. Strong acting throughout, great characters and a story that hooked.
American Made – Tom Cruise on typical form but this was pretty forgetable.
Justice League – Complete piss. Watched again in case the cinema viewing was an off day, but no. Crap writing, some poor acting, a terrible plot and some unforgivable CGI – not just Henry Cavill’s lip.
