Saw voodoo wrestling on The Wrestlers that was on Vice.
Did always wonder why never hear of men playing Roller Derby. Is it a thing in Ireland? For women I mean?

For my sins, I've been persuaded to a watch-along of this tomorrow night with some friends. Between the inconsistency of Ferrel's film output and the Eurovision subject matter, I shan't be doing it sober :P

Half way through it here and enjoying it. If you enjoy the Eurovision you should be fine and you never ever ever should watch the Eurovision sober so the same rules apply here.

Dan Stevens is absolutely brilliant hamming it up as the Russian contestant!

59% so far on Rotten Tomatoes. Might be worth a look as critics never really overly love modern Comedies

At 2 hours though there must be padding in there. Comedy films should never really go over 100 mins imho

80%+ for audiences. This isn’t the type of comedy to get critical acclaim. See Baywatch for an example!

its here dark season 3.

I just finished watching the whole of season 3. Absolutely epic. Best show on Netflix

Just finished season 3 of The Sinner and I can appreciate the direction it took in trying not to essentially repeat the previous seasons but it's missing the mark slightly. I get what it was trying to do but the storyline dragged across the 8 episodes, possibly 5/6 episodes could have told the story equally well. That being said, Bill Pullman fascinatingly weird and excellent and I've always liked Matt Bomer and I think he plays his part well. Story was just a little too strecthed out.

I'd recommend The Sinner to anyone who hasn't watched it, especially the first two seasons, excellent television

it's one of those shows that can only be watched in one go, all 3 seasons.
Too complicated to pick up season 3 after a two year break from the end of the previous season

I only watched season 3 today, I had seen the first two when they came out originally, but I rewatched them earlier this month. I’d definitely advise a rewatch of season 2 before watching season 3

365 days

Easily the worst thing I've sat through for two hours. Absolutely terrible.

0/10

Should have gone straight to the scene that is one of the most talked about 4 minutes in ould ones WhatsApp groups.

I didn't hear anything about it and was expecting something maybe along the lines of Geralds Game. I feel like I was tricked into watching it. GF suggested it, said to me everyone is saying its brilliant, top ten in Ireland, 93% on Netflix. I kept saying right that's enough riding bit of plot now, could turn it around. Nope just more riding.

Watched a good film earlier. Sisters with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Plot is their parents announce they are selling up the family home so as a final goodbye the sisters organise a leggier like they had when they were teenagers.

What started off as a dud soon descends into absolute carnage with a little help from a friendly drug dealer who supplied way more than a dime bag of dirt pot that they were originally thinking about.

Some laugh out loud moments. And overall a good watch.

Rewatched the Campaign with Will Ferrell and Zach Gallx#nwi.still as funny as the first time, and a great comedy duo,
