Never seen Spirited Away, looking forward to it

Also everyone should watch Shutter Island if they somehow haven't already.

That Pacific Rim sequel wasn't great, not least because it lost all the heft and momentum of the mechs / kaiju, the robots leaping about like Transformers more than anything else. The scale and size was gone. Honestly even "free" on Netflix I wouldn't waste the time. Just watch the first film again lol.

Lost patience with that ****e after 20 minutes. The first one wasn't trying to do anything in particular which is what made it enjoyable.

Finally finished Narcos season 2 after watching the first season years ago, overall it was really good. Is the 3rd Cali season worth a watch too?

Season 3 Cali Cartel was my favourite (although I did enjoy the first two seasons very much and thinks it's quality) It has great new characters and really gets going in the latter episodes, worth a watch. Pacho is my fave.

Narcos Mexico I couldn't get into at all, feels like it didn't live up to the hype of telling Kiki Camarena's story.

Watched all of it today, a few good bits, but could have been done a lot better. Very disappointing.

Spirited Away is amazing

"I'm not okay with this" is a lot like Carrie, I really liked it

Watched Spirited Away and My Neighbour Totorro with the kids over the weekend, they are twins aged 2, a 4 year old and a 6 year old. They all sat through the two films and the twins have watched Totorro at least two more times. The older guys and myself really enjoyed Spirited Away. it is up there with one of the best films I've ever seen. Wish I had seen it as a kids. Just have to figure out what one is next to watch now.

Just watched The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez, hard to watch. What that poor child went through is heartbreaking and sickening.

Would recommend but not for the faint.
