Planning on watching some movies over the next week but we spend ages researching them. Can you recommend a few good ones please?
We enjoyed 'The Unforgiveable', gripping and kept us interested.
We didn't enjoy 'The Power of the Dog', found the second half really slow and lost interest. May revisit though |

I love movie suggestion threads
Unforgivable looks good, The Truman Show is heartbreaking.
The opening scene of Love Actually started playing while I was looking there. That makes my little black heart weep. The guy that looks like he can breathe again now that she's back & the hand in the hair gets me everytime
Everyone should just watch that part |

"Watched that don't look up last night, it's rubbish.
That's disappointing, it looked quite good "
As a comedy it was a let down for me, give it a whirl anyway |

Don’t watch out of death with Bruce Willis such a bad movie!
Like a low budget movie, filming, story line, the dialogue, special effects… everything was horrible… and we still watched it to the end… disbelieving the way you can get when a movie is that bad!!! |

The Iron Giant. My favorite animated film. It's charming and very funny. Brad Bird directed it who went on to direct Pixar classics (Ratatouille, Incredibles) and the Mission Impossible films. |

Don't look up is good if you know its really a critique of societies and politicians response to climate change and meryl Streep is playing both Donald trump and Obama. Also the tech guy is a piss take of both Steve jobs and elon musk. |

Unfortunately, about 0.005% of Trump supporters will realise what it's trying to tell them |

Kilkenny, but Dublin is more fun |
I really don't where the hate for "Don't Look Up" comes from. I thought it was brilliant.
And if you think it's about normal people being stupid, you're really missing the most important critique |

Watched it last night and like that I heard the critics but we loved it. Different movie, Cate Blanchet was super. |

Interesting to read the wildly differing reviews, we're just gonna have to watch it now. I'm sure it does help to understand the background in advance |

I watched don't look up last night. It's a comedy saitre. I've read a lot of reviews after it, from reading the reviews you get the imprest that people were expecting this movie to single handedly shift the world's attitude to climate change.
It's a comedy saitre. For me it did it's job, which was to keep me entertained for just over 2 hours. |

"Just watched "Just Look Up"
Very entertaining which is the main function of anything I watch
The fun bit was realising that one of my favorite fabbers could be the Cate Blanchette character "
And who might that be now |

"Great crime/drama/thriller series on Netflix at the moment called Stay close
UK based Netflix.. With James Nesbitt and Jo joyner.. Check it out "
Started watching it earlier but gave up after half an hour. I like James Nesbitt but this is a bit of a slow burner. |

I've sat through some tripe in my time simply because once I start something I'll see it out to the end so I can honestly say I watched it no matter how bad.
That includes shite like Normal People and a few recent movies.
The only things I've ever turned off part way through were 365 days after half an hour, Sex life after the first episode and Squid Games after 20 mins.
Difficult to say which was the worst. |

365 and Sex Life were woeful. |

"Belfast (2021) is a very good movie.
Partisan, a 2021 Swedish TV series on All4 Walter Presents. "
“Belfast” has made it into my “five worst films of all time” list…..the only thing good about it is the soundtrack. |

"Red notice is good fun.. "
That's a damn lie......
One of the worse movies out there, done 100 times before and better, zero chemistry between any of the main actors, it was painful |

"Just watched Bohemian Rhapsody for the second time and then watched Queens performance at Live Aid.
2.5 hours well spent "
Have you watched the video on YouTube where it shows the real footage and the movie scene from live aid side by side. Well worth a watch |

No you don't have to have even played league of legends to get the best out of it. |

"Dope sick on Disney. Best I've seen in a while .I know not Netflix but seriously good"
Agreed
Very good series and Michael Keaton was excellent in it.
Scary stuff, especially reading the news articles recently about it. |
