How to Have Even Less Time to Read (ft. the 10 best films I've watched recently)

This blog post is inspired by How To Have Even LESS Time To Read! (Ft. 10 Movies/TV Shows I’ve Watched Or Want To) by C.G. Drews (a.k.a. @PaperFury).

1. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

description

Not just another superhero film. Witty, entertaining, and with a killer soundtrack. Also a gamechanger re my Chris-rankings.

2. Spotlight (2015)

description

A powerful film based on a true story, and featuring a stellar cast. Also features lots of paper-based investigative work, which I'm always on board for.

3. The Spy Who Dumped Me (2018)

description

Funny, action-packed, and female-driven. What more could you want? Also features a very attractive MI6 agent.

4. Drive (2011)

description

Ryan Gosling as a mechanic and stunt-driver who moonlights as a getaway driver? Sign me up. I also can't resist a stylish film, and this is stylish with a capital 'S'.

5. The Two Faces of January (2014)

description

Another incredibly stylish film, based on a Patricia Highsmith novel so what else would you expect?

6. Crazy Stupid Love (2011)

description

If you're looking for the perfect switch-off film, stop, your search is over. Stellar cast, witty dialogue, and Ryan Gosling making this expression (see above gif).

7. Still Alice (2014)

description

Julianne Moore won an oscar for her role as Alice, a fifty-year-old professor who is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Even more heart-wrenching than the book.

8. The Children Act (2018)

description

Emma Thompson is a judge deciding a case about a seventeen year-old Jehovah's Witness refusing a blood transfusion, and facing the breakdown of her marriage - to Stanley Tucci. Written by Ian McEwan, and featuring so many brilliant English actors. What are you waiting for?

9. Black Panther (2018)

description

The hype did not lie. And there are so many strong women.

10. Twelve Monkeys (1995)

description

This gif sums up not only this film, but also all of Bruce Willis' and Brad Pitt's respective films. And if that's not enough to make you want to watch it, I don't know what is.
