The only one i didn't like one bit was 47 Ronin. Awful. One or two i haven't seen as well, and Miracle at St Anna which i've owned for years and never got round to watching. |
I haven't seen
Victoria & Abdul,
Focus or
The Quiet Ones.
I saw
47 Ronin years ago and can't remember liking it or disliking it – it didn't leave a great impression on me either way.
I watched and reviewed
Miracle at St Anna when the DVD was first released (there weren't any Blu-ray discs available for review purposes) and noted that, although it wasn't not a great film from Spike Lee, it told an important story very well and has boasted impressive visuals and sound.
Of the 25, they separate into three categories:

- Far from the Madding Crowd
- Defiance
- The Girl on the Train
- The Impossible
Watched at home:- 47 Ronin
- The Wolfman
- The Box
- The Lincoln Lawyer
- Moneyball
- Passchendaele
- Baywatch
- End of Watch
- Miracle at St Anna
- Oz the Great and Powerful
I haven't seen: - Logan Lucky
- The Quiet Ones
- Anonymous
- Victoria & Abdul
- Focus
- Texas Killing Fields
- In the Shadow of the Moon
I've seen all of the Pixar shorts, four of them at the cinema and one of them (Geri's Game, which played before A Bug's Life) when I bought the DVD. I've watched all of them multiple times since.
