Always felt it was a little overrated tbh.

I agree with this. It was OK, nothing special and nothing memorable at all. Certainly pales in comparison to shaun of the dead.

Absolutely love this movie. Gets funnier every rewatch.

I see clips from "Love Me" being posted on Reddit this week. It's a documentary about guys using mail order bride services. It looks cringe-tastic, almost Louis Theroux-esque. Is it on Irish Netflix?

That was on Netflix before, I watched it.

Watched train to busan last night thought it was excellent. Never watched a south Korean movie before but was very impressed. Any recommendations for more good foreign movies, south Korean or other?

I love a good crime\detective\thriller so anything along those lines.

Master of none season 2 added today

Not sure how many of these are on netflix but in terms of South Korean films it's worth checking out Oldboy, Sympathy for Mr Vengeance and I Saw the Devil. Oldboy in particular is a must watch imo.

The Host, Lady Vengeance, Memories of Murder, The Good, the Bad and the Weird, Joint Security Area and A Bittersweet Life are all really good too.

You've really been missing out over the last 20 years if Train to Busan was your first korean movie

Watched the 2nd Season of Love last week and really enjoyed it.

Started watching Lovesick last night. Made by Channel 4 I think. Watched about 4 episodes and it had some good laughs

There is a good Korean one about a nuclear disaster on Netflix... I'll get the name later.

If you haven't seen 'Oldboy' then you're in for a treat.

Whilst I wholeheartedly agree with you re this statement, I've come across a couple of people who didn't quite have the same reaction.

Recommended it to 2 lads in work, one absolutely loved it, the other one

who has a daughter

was thoroughly disturbed by it

Irreversible. French.

City of God. Brazilian.

Untouchables. French.

Suite Francais, really recommend this film, a love story between a French woman and German officer in Nazi-Occupied France.

Gloomtastic!

Can't find Oldboy or Train To Busan on Irish Netflix. Am I meant to?

Watched it today. Watched most of it from behind my hands. Absolute cringe festival. Thoroughly recommended.

We are watching Last Tango in Halifax on Netflix at the moment. Loving it. It's about two pensioners who are reunited and fall in love and their extremely messed up families . Well worth a watch if you haven't already seen it.

Completely agree. Really enjoying this at the moment. The two actors playing the pensioners are excellent.

I've been so engrossed in Mad Men the last few weeks I'd totally forgot this thread had been rebooted.

Some nice recommendations here, thanks!

Still haven't figured out why Mad Men is so addictive but I'm glued every evening.

Loved Mad Men too. Watched all 7 seasons in about 2 weeks. Now watching Last Tango in Halifax which I'm enjoying a lot.

Watched 'Love & Friendship' this evening and thoroughly enjoyed it. Jane Austen adaptation starting Kate Beckinsale in fantastic form and wonderfully silly performance from Tom Bennett. A very pleasant way to pass an hour and a half. Also shot mostly in Ireland.

Entirely in Ireland, I thought.

Not that it matters, obviously, it's still a very enjoyable film either way.
