After seeing the trailer for the new Batman film, new Star Trek film and having watched the new Star Wars film I must confess that our tastes aren't really in step with the modern audience.
We could happily watch To Catch a Thief, Harvey, El Cid, a John Hughes film, The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, Star Trek: the original series (seasons 1 & 2), Guardians of the Galaxy, Elizabethtown, Austenland, Kingsman, Maleficent, Amelie, Solaris (almost anything featuring Clooney)... and hundreds more.
The Too Fast, Too Furious style of film numbs us out. Too many stunts, special effects and lousy dialogue. We love a film like The Illusionist... where you have to pay attention and nothing grisly happens. We also love musicals... Into the Woods was great!
