The place to be. Thank you. We will be back with a summary of the news at half past. Now its time for the film review with mark kermode and ben brown. Hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. To take us through this weeks cinema releases is mark kermode. So mark, what do we have this week . We have blade runner 2049, the eagerly awaited sequel to blade runner. The glass castle, starring brie larsen. And the mountain between us with idris elba and kate winslet. Now, blade runner 2049, the replicants are back. People are saying this is as much a classic as the original. How do you see it . I went in in a state of extreme trepidation because i love blade runner, the final cut, the proper version. I went into this very worried about it. Its set 30 years after the first film. In the first film Harrison Ford was a blade runner, hunting down and retiring replicants. Now, ryan gosling as k is carrying on that profession. Early on in the film one of his targets says, he can only do it because he has never seen a miracle, a phrase he doesnt understand, but he comes to during the course of the movie. As he does so, he starts to wonder about his profession, hisjob, his past and his identity. Inevitably, his assignment leads him on to the trail of Harrison Fords deckard. Heres a clip. What are you doing here . I heard the piano. Dont lie. Its rude. Youre a cop. Im not here to take you in. Oh, yeah . Then what . Ijust have some questions. A lot of praise for Harrison Fords performance. I think Harrison Ford is great, but the Key Performance is Denis Villeneuve, the director, who has done a brilliantjob of following on the themes of the original blade runner. Ridley scotts blade runner had visual awe, and thanks to some fantastic cinematography from roger deakins, this takes your breath away visually. Its spectacular, depicting a world that appears to go on for ever, completely immersive, you can totally believe in it. It also has a groaning, roaring soundtrack that dances around memories of the original vangelis score. Most importantly, it has the confidence to take its time telling the story. The original story, although it was Science Fiction, it was about what it meant to be human and what memories do in the formation of our personality. How do we define our identity . Big Science Fiction ideas. Blade runner 2049 says these are the ideas that matter and we will run with them. About 30 minutes into the film, when i realised it really did have the confidence to take its time and pace itself, i heaved a sigh of relief because i was so glad that Denis Villeneuve had clearly taken the spirit of the original. I have seen it twice now. The first time, i was just knocked out by the way it looks and sounds, the way it was as a cinema experience. The second time around, what was fascinating was the way it became a melancholy experience. Its a film steeped in sadness, the idea tears in rain, the key element of the original blade runner. If youre a fan, a genre movie fan, and blade runner is important to you, as it is to me and a lot of people, we really wanted the sequel to be good, but everyone was scared because where do you take the story and how will you not trip up . That sense of palpable relief and ecstatic excitement, that not only has Denis Villeneuve understood, loved and paid homage to the original, he has also moved it on and made a modern Science Fiction classic. It looks back to metropolis, taking its place in the pantheon alongside films like 2001, and i dont say this lightly, its a film that blade runner deserved to have come after it. I just thought it was wonderful. We have clearly seen the original, we are of that age. Do you have to have seen the original to enjoy this . My own feeling would be, if you havent seen the original, go and see it because its a really important film. But i think you do have to see the original. Heaven knows its available in enough different versions. Seven versions, ive read. You have to see Ridley Scotts final cut version that sorts out all the little problems. Because then the experience of seeing 2049 will be so much richer because you will understand the resonance of things that happen in the latter third of the film. And who wouldnt want to see blade runner again . Exactly. The glass castle, brie larsen and Woody Harrelson. Based on a memoir by jeannette walls. It opens on a successful gossip columnist, played by brie larsen, engaged to a financial adviser. Going home in a taxi, she sees her parents, Woody Harrelson and naomi watts, crawling around in dumpsters looking for trash. It flashes back to her itinerant upbringing. Her mother was an artist more interested in paintings than cooking food for the kids. Herfather was a rebel, believing in building the glass castle, but also a belligerent bully and drunk. The movie flips backwards and forwards between the present day story and the past. I have to say its not an entirely happy marriage. Its directed by Destin Daniel cretton, who worked with brie larsen brilliantly on the independent hit short term 12, which really announced brie larsen to the world. She is very good, but not in the most important part of the film. The most important part of the film is the story of the character when she is much younger, growing up with these parents who are totally reckless in their parenting and have this hippy dippy ideal of how you should raise kids, but the kids are in danger, bullied, and deprived in some ways. I kept wanting the film to come together more than it does, but it has very solid performances. Its directed with heart, but its not quite dramatically pulling itself together for me. The mountain between us, kate winslet and idris elba. A survival story and a love story. Two for the price of one. A snowstorm, they both need to get somewhere so they charter a small plane that goes into the side of the mountain. They are stranded there, no record of theirflights, no food or phone signal. Apparently they have nothing in common. Heres a clip. Are you 0k . A couple of bruises, a few scratches. Couple of cracked ribs, i got lucky. You didnt file a flight plan . No. There was radio contact. How long has it been . 36 hours. Weve got plenty of water, as long as we can melt the snow. Four packets of almonds, a couple of candy bars, half eaten sandwich and some cookies. What kind of cookies . What . Joke. Did it grip you, did it grab you . The problem, will they survive, will they run out of food or will a relationship develop . The plane crash reminded me of the film alive, as did the setup, but it turns into alive actually. Its a strange generic hybrid. It has two very solid performances from idris elba and kate winslet, but it never convinces me of their circumstances. I never felt they were genuinely endangered. It walked a very strange path between being one kind of movie and another kind of movie. Directed by hany abu assad, a terrific director. Based on a book by chris martin. Some individual scenes work well, but it is at its strongest when it deals with the idea of what will people do when they are in isolation, trying to survive, when they arent think they will never get back to the real world. It works less well when its dealing with other things and trying to be something that is closer to a disaster movie, survival movie and romance movie. One of those three elements will not necessarily gel with the rest. Its not bad, but its just not convincing. Alive actually, im sure movie producers are thinking of that concept and drawing up a script as we speak. Maybe that was it. What is best out at the moment . They have rereleased the coen brothers film blood simple from the early 1980s. The coen brothers did a directors cut that was shorter than the original, which i am all in favour of. Its been reissued in a 4k transfer, and its every bit as thrilling as it was when it first came out. Its a neo noir, double crossing, dirty tricks, some genuine horror. I first saw it in a double bill with one of sam raimis evil dead films. The coens and raimi were good friends. The coen brothers went on to make fargo and no country for old men. Watching this now, you remember how thrilling, dark and strange this was when it first came out. And knowing what the coen brothers went on to do, its interesting to see the seeds of those ideas in blood simple. Its well worth seeing in the cinema. And on dvd . Wonder woman. For me, its that rarest of things, a modern superhero movie that i really had fun with and enjoyed. I think pattyjenkins did a terrific job of taking this character and giving her a whole new screen life. When you think of how dreary and boring batman versus superman was, how much of a plod it felt, this feels lively and vibrant and different. It feels like its taking an idea and running with it in a way that opens it up to a whole new audience. I remember sitting in the cinema when i first saw this and you could feel people enjoying the movie. There was none of that ponderous chin stroking. The movie wasjumping off the screen and i think its really good, wonder woman. I missed it at the cinema so im looking forward to it. You have to see it on a Big Television screen. I will come round your place well do it this weekend, marvellous.

Its the version of football that helped brazil and spain win world cups with such flair, and now the home nations are hoping futsal can do the same here. It puts the emphasis on technique and ball control in a tight space, and this week the new National Mens super league started, with the womens due to kick off later this month. One of the strongest teams is in birmingham and ijoined them in training. From the strength of south america where it began to sports halls across the uk. The new national league. It is the sport was a lot of sold because there is a lot to learn with rolling your ball with the foot. Of the balls are smaller and much bouncier. This is a restricted area and a hard core which means that the emphasis is on tight and skill under pressure, as you can see. Futsal is about technical ability, or awareness. Players tend to get involved in every position on the pitch. And you get opportunities to attack, defend, you improve mental strength and speed of thought. At first it is a bit of a shock to the system. It is so much quicker than the football i am used to. I feel like quicker than the football i am used to. Ifeel like some quicker than the football i am used to. I feel like some sort of footballing dinosaur. Futsal has been around in spain and south america for 18 years and is credited with getting these nations teams this where and skill they are renowned for. Ellesa as it was fundamental in his development. So now that the uk has finally caught on, could the new National Matt three legs of help british Football Players become as skilful as the spanish.

It improves me when i play football for my school. Here in birmingham, they have found that futsal is reaching parts of the community where football has failed. Whether they feel more involved in the game indoors and, later this month, the Birmingham Team he will begin competing in the inaugural Womens Futsal league. It is easier to improve the ad futsal rather than football. It is a great opportunity for girls like me who like to go out and play football. It is more intense. You are doing more stuff, more running, more passing. You can see what this new League Already brings to the fans and teams, especially here in salisbury, celebrating an opening day win. They travel the birmingham this weekend. As the saying goes, it really is now like watching brazil. It is quite exciting to watch as well. Endless action and lots of goals and the scores. Dont forget, those players have not been playing so terribly long. The womens kicks off at the end of the month, they are incredible. And looking at those pictures it does looking at those pictures it does look a lot faster. Yes. The ball if heavier to the naked eye it looks like a football but it is slightly smaller and heavier. It does not really bounce. I made the mistake of trying to head it. Oh, no, dont head it. Would you like to have a field. It looks exactly the same. If it be . Id like to thank the legs are sending it in. And what does that do to the game . Suppose the ball. You need to control with your feet, lots of silky skills and control, basically in a tight space. And you see what it is done to the countries that has played for years. Places like portugal, sprang, brazil, argentina. It started in south america and those nations are renowned for their skills. Were jubilant out of the studio . I can try. It is all about the sole. Look at that. Dribbling his way out. Pure class. Thank you. It is coming up to 645. Lets have a chat to sarah. We are looking out for the meteors tonight. Some will be lucky in terms of clear skies. Grey skies for many. Through the weekend. Brightening up. Quite mild and cloudy to start. Rain today. Brighter skies later on today and sunday as well. This is the satellite image showing the cloud coming in. Clear skies early on. Cloud building in. This morning, a murky morning. Hill fog, low cloud, drizzly rain. Further north, brighter skies. Further showers for north west england and Northern Ireland and the bulk of scotland. Potentially thundery and blustery. The rain in the south should ease in most areas. Lingering for a time, especially in devon and cornwall. Quite wet into the afternoon. Further north, brighter spells. A few showers in the north and west. Temperatures today a round 14 17. As we go through the evening, if you wa nt to as we go through the evening, if you want to see the meteors, clear skies, especially in eastern scotland, north east england, east anglia. Southern england, southern pa rt anglia. Southern england, southern part of Northern Ireland as well, the further north west you are, less ofa the further north west you are, less of a chance, a few showers and more cloud. The weather front clears off tonight. Improving. Skies will improve. Showers tomorrow in parts of western scotland, Northern Ireland, north west england, north wales as well be elsewhere, not a bad day. Mostly dry. More sunshine. Lighter winds. Although temperatures are fairly similar, 14 18, it will feel a little bit warmer tomorrow. U nsettled feel a little bit warmer tomorrow. Unsettled weather into the working week. Low pressure moving in from the atlantic setting us up for a changeable week to come. Things will turn windy. Rain in North Western areas into next week. More dry at times in the east. Unsettled is the theme in the week ahead. Back to you. Thank you. We will be back with the headlines at 7am. Now, click. The team are injapan this week. In the land that inspired blade runner, were spending two weeks exploring this unique country as it aims for the moon, reaches for the stars and tries to look after its own backyard. Its going to be a wild ride. And, just like in other parts of the world, a lot of Fascinating Research goes on insidejapans academic institutions. Here at the university of tokyo, theyre putting something very interesting down on paper. This is projection mapping, where an image is projected onto a specially marked surface and as the surface moves, the projector warps its image to keep it in the right place. The difference between this and everything we have seen previously is just how accurately the project follows the surface. The system is scanning the marker dots and understands the scene 1,000 times every second, which really is faster than the eye can see. And its this super fast processing of the environment that professor Masatoshi Ishikawa thinks will be necessary when we hand over more control to machines. How have you done that . Whats the Science Behind this . Were notjust talking about projecting an image onto a Fast Moving Object either. How have you done that . Whats the Science Behind this . Were notjust talking about projecting an image onto a Fast Moving Object either. They can also follow an object with a camera with incredible precision. Just look at how this ball is staying absolutely in the middle of the shot no matter how fast i move it. In fact, remember, its 1,000 frames a second so we can even do this. Instead of having to physically move the projector or here, the camera, its this mirror that moves to catch the action, reflecting it up into the lens. Although there are no concrete plans to use this in the tokyo 2020 0lympics, this would certainly give you a proper balls eye view of televised sport. And that super fast Image Processing can also be put to other uses, including reacting to an opponents hand gesture in the as yet non 0lympic sport of rock, paper, scissors. See, that was so fast i didnt even know whether it beat me. Paper. Scissors. Thats too fast for my brain to actually work out whats going on. Just for a record, its identifying my moves as soon as i start to open my hand and then countering with a winning move for my hand is fully open. So, basically, its cheating. It may have won the game but i can take the moral high ground. Now to chiba, just outside tokyo, where japans biggest tech fest is being held. Each year ceatec attracts more than 600 companies, many of whom show off their new ideas before theyre due to come to market. Dan simmons is there to show us the best of them. Ceatec seems to be full of these cute robots, but theyre not as helpful as they look. I would rather show you something you might find useful. It may look like a microwave oven but this piece of kit is designed to tell me the number of calories and the sort of fat content, protein, carbohydrates of any dish that i put in there. At the moment itjust works with simple dishes. It uses Near Infrared light and analyses the reflections of those inside the device and it should work with any sort of food. Eventually. It only takes about ten seconds and here is what we have. This piece of quiche, pretty calorific, i might say. I might leave that one in there. It struggles with several foods on one single plate and readings on my quiche varied a bit. So panasonic says the caloraco is still a few years away. But fish has to be good for you, right . So, doctor, im having these stomach pains. Computer speaks japanese man speaks japanese computer what did you eat yesterday . I ate some sushi. Man and computer converse injapanese i see. Then ill check so please wait a moment. And im waiting a moment. And that sort of interaction, eye contact, can be kept and also nobody needs to touch any device either. It seems quite natural, apart from that Long Distance call wait. The translation is done in the cloud so response times will depend on cellular signal strength. This manga book has had a makeover and again translation is on hand. Panasonics cocotto love to teach children. It praises and cautions them while encouraging them to do daily tasks like eating vegetables or cleaning teeth. Parents can get the robot to nudge the child in the right direction through the app. But cocotto cannot be thrown, or it will break. Its a cushion with a waggy tail. It wags differently depending on how you stroke it. I think its time for man versus machine. For the first time ever, this years version omrons table tennis playing robot weve previously featured on the show serves. Didnt get much of a rally in there. Its faster and its meaner. Now, as well as tracking the ball, its also tracking my body language, which omron says means it can detect when im about to go for a smash and respond accordingly. It didnt even move, did it . Lets face it. It didnt even move when i went for that smash. Are you ok . At a swish cross Continent Press event this week, google showed off its new goodies specifically designed for the home, and i popped along for a gander. Theyre there when you need them, theyre simple to use, and they anticipate your needs. Were introducing mini. Theyre there when you need them, theyre simple to use, and they anticipate your needs. Were introducing mini. First up, the new home mini. This cute doughnut is a more compact version of the home, an assistant set to rival amazons echo dot, with a pricetag to match ofjust under £50. Of course a Premium Version called max with its main mission of playing music changes audio levels according to its ambient surroundings. Top of the line up, however, was the search giants flagship smart phone starting at £629. And here it is. This is the google pixel 2. This is the xl version, which is six inches in size, the regular pixels five inches. This moves the speakers so when youre watching a movie in landscape mode youre not muffling any of the audio. It also has a nifty feature called live edge which when you squeeze the phone it brings up Google Assistant which can then help you on your way. Whats the best phone . Hmmm. Its camera has had a reboot too. It comes with a clever Portrait Mode which creates depth of field found in professional photos with only a single lens, using Machine Learning to do so. Verifications and reminders all without pushing any buttons. With the new always on display, the phone also shows you what song is playing in the background of wherever you are. Its always listening. The pixel 2, particularly the xl version, is really good. High end, meets the specs of the other competitors too. But its only got a tiny percentage of the market, 0. 5 compared to iphone and samsung. Its got a tremendous amount of work to do to catch up. Thats what was interesting, the vp of hardware came right out and said that weve basically rached the same level for all high end handsets at the moment, theyve all got the same specs, they all look the same, theyve all got the same standards. So he was saying that theyre going to now rely on the software and Machine Learning ai really to try and make these things better than their competitors. And after having a dig at apple last yearfor getting rid of a 3. 5mm audiojack, google has done the same. Pixel 2 users will have to use an adaptor which fits into the usbc charging port to listen with wired headphones, which is included with the phone. Or they could buy new pixel buds, which when used with google translate, they say this allows wearers to chat to people speaking a different language. But anyone who has tried google translate, they know how that will go. Hey, isabelle, hows it going . Absolutely 0k. Thank you. At £159 for the pair, the earphones themselves have five hours of battery life but can be repowered up to four times on their special charging case. Bud or duds . Weill soon see. Thats it for the shortcut of click from this week from japan. The full length version is up on iplayerfor you to watch right now. Dont forget, theres loads of extra content on facebook and twitter.
