A very decent mix of movies on your telly tonight!
Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday.
It used to be that nobody loved Tuesday. But then Bake Off happened on a Tuesday, so now we love Tuesday.
But if Bake Off isn’t your bag, and you won’t be going outside (not with this weather on the way), there are actually plenty of decent movies to choose from tonight.
Click – Comedy Central – 6.55pm
Adam Sandler is the happily married man who happens across a magical remote control that allows him to pause and fast forward his life, but how much of his life will he accidentally skip over if he lives his life this way? A overlooked, mostly-very-decent comedy in Sandler’s CV.
Eye In The Sky – FilmFour – 7pm
Helen Mirren, Aaron Paul, and the late, great Alan Rickman star in this drone strike thriller, as an attack on a potential terrorist is hindered by his proximity to a large group of innocents.
My Name Is Emily – Virgin Media Two – 9pm
On her 16th birthday, Emily (Harry Potter’s Evanna Lynch) runs away from her foster home and, with the help of her new friend Arden, sets out on a road trip across Ireland to break her father out of a psychiatric institution.
Escape Plan – FilmFour – 9pm
Sly Stallone and Arnie star in this prison break movie about the creator of the world’s most escape-proof prison suddenly finding himself locked up inside of it, and having to… yep, you guessed it… break out of it.
Gone Girl – RTE Two – 9.30pm
Before his new movie arrives on Netflix, you should check out director David Fincher’s last movie, with Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike as the husband and wife from hell, which gets worse when she goes missing and he gets accused of her murder.
Lone Survivor – ITV4 – 11.05pm
Mark Wahlberg leads a group of Navy SEALs as they try to get back across the Afghanistan border on foot after a mission goes sideways. Based on a true story, this is a gruelling, violent thriller that will have you properly exhausted by the end of it.
The Killing Of A Sacred Deer – FilmFour – 11.15pm
Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman are the happily(?) married couple who find their private lives completely turned upside down by weirdo teenager Barry Keoghan. A very, very, very, very, very dark comedy thriller.
