Finally got round to watching City of God. A Brazilian film about slum gangs. Very good, crazy life, but good!

The break with Michelle wolf ( weekly show )
Nobody's safe as Michelle Wolf unapologetically takes aim in this weekly topical show that blends sketches with live comedy and in-studio guests.

I have to agree with that.

She may well be very funny however her voice is to painful to listen to for any length of time.

Apologies if this isn't permitted here but I've looked elsewhere without success.

One question:-

If I download a Netflix Original series to my device (phone/laptop) how long will it be viewable? I'm off on holiday to France soon and learned last year that downloading content from Netflix here in Ireland isn't always watchable overseas (hence my focus this year on Netflix originals which I understand are universally viewable) so I want to make sure any original Netflix series I download will be viewable for the duration of my trip.

Cheers and apologies if this question is a little off side.

New EU laws mean that only your Irish account will now be accessible in the rest of Europe.

Basically it doesn't matter what Country you are in in the EU the only Netflix you will get is your Irish one.

Ya so if u have WiFi over on holidays no point in downloading. I just download stuff to have when traveling.

7 days before it expires, but only 48hrs if you've began to watch it and then stopped it. As in pausing and resuming. I cant see their being any issue with content from another region unless you'll be online and logged into netflix on your device while there.

Sorry for being a thicko Sugarman but what does "7 days before it expires" mean? Do you get a "watch before" date when you download but if you start watching and leave more than a 48 hr gap before returning to watch you lose access to it?

Watched this last night. Didn't know what to make of it - flip-flops between all sorts of genres and does a pretty terrible job with all of them, whilst remaining strangely watchable....but I think a 5/10 would be pretty generous.

I threw it on last night too but only lasted about 30 minutes. Can't see myself going back to finish it

I barely lasted 10, the characters were irritating and the writing weak. Ended up putting on Spy Hard of all things instead.

Truth be told I was watching it with someone else, so if I had been on my own it would've been switched off after the first 20 minutes as well.

It's one of those strangely watchable films that somehow, the sum of all its parts add up to a lot more than it should.

I still consider it a 5/10 in spite of the fact that it's not funny, has a pretty terrible script, rambles incoherently and leaves it's promising cast looking amateur.

Nobody seems to have mentioned the audience Ibiza was made for - Chick Flick!

Quintessential Netflix and chill movie. Never sets out to achieve anything other than a bit of fun. Paper thin characters. Very little variety in dialog, kinda like the Gilmore Girls meet Sex and the City. Good soundtrack and visuals of Spain help to deliver a feel good factor.

5.5/10

There's any amount of solid films out there that fit the chick flick genre....this definitely is not one of them.

A bad, lazy movie is just that no matter who it's aimed at.

Do not watch Ibiza no matter how stuck you are.

They keep saying "yaaasssssss" in a non ironic way.
They also call it "I-bi-sah".
It's also awful.

johnpatrick81 · 29-05-2018 01:22PM

:pac: I’m half way through it and I gotta say it’s the perfect hangover movie. I love the 3 leads and think they’ve brilliant chemistry. Maybe the alcohol damage rendered my brain it’s perfect captive audience, but the 3 leads, silly drunken jokes and exotic locations won me over.

gargargar · 29-05-2018 02:34PM

Anybody catch the Netflix movie 'Manhunt'? Directed by John Woo. I watched half of it in amazement. No coherent story line. It changes between Japanese and English at weird points. It is like a collection of scenes arranged around the old 'framed guy on the run' trope.

mooseknunkle · 29-05-2018 05:33PM

Watched Ibiza last night and its not going to win any oscars but its watchable the three girls are likeable and the story is crap,i was wondering what happened to Rob Stark its good to see he got a job as an international DJ.

Gloomtastic! · 29-05-2018 10:23PM

Reign Over Me is a pretty powerful and thought-provoking movie about a NY dentist who meets up with his old college mate who, since they last met, lost his wife and three daughters in one of the planes involved in 9/11.

Great performances all round. 8/10

Anyone know if its any better than Series 4, was disappointed with that. Although of course it did have its excellent moments.
