Netflix Recommendations Thread 3.0

Happy birthday 😂

Leave no trace is an absolute gem deserved a tonne more of awards recognition.

Watched James blunt (the singer) documentary. Not a fan, just picked it at random. Glad I did- a fella living his best life, recommended

Thanks for the tip on this. I watched it last night. Entertaining heist movie. I liked it. It's silly, but I generally don't get too much into plotholes in movies. Unless it's something completely ridiculous.

Only watched the first one...riveting if a bit of an upsetting watch for some I would say alright, very brave women speaking about their experiences. It takes a bit of getting used to when it comes to the little animated parts.

Finished Turning Point: The Bomb and The Cold War last night, absolutely brilliant documentary from the start of the Cold War until present day. Coming in at nearly 10 hours spread over 9 episodes it is a fair time commitment but well worth it.

Kaos is **** fantastic, some very very disturbing scenes very intelligent jokes and it will make you loath the leading character.

TMI see if you can spot the Game of Thrones actor although you might need an eagle eye to do so.

Trust your ears not your eyes and the Game of Thrones connection is apparent :)

Similarly to spot the 2 Irish actors in the cast.

It's excellent.…to me that's possibly the first really decent proper "netflix film" I've watched.…..

Shite name is my only criticism...

I'm not saying ...I didn't enjoy some of the other ones.…but theyre filler, this is an excellent film

Great cast, great performances for the most part,

...really solid 8.5-9/10

I’ve noticed a lot of hate about lost on this thread. I’ve almost completed the six seasons again. I binged the series back in 2010 around the time of the finale. Stupidly interesting, mysterious, character driven series that I throughly enjoyed (both times) . Hard to believe the series started 20 years ago.

I wouldn't think extraction was a patch on it

But its definitely not in the same league as Bourne....but to me it's quite a different kind of film.....it might share some elements but there is more thriller/drama in there etc....Bourne to me is solid action, superhuman spy battles shadowy corrupt govt forces....its thrill ride from start to finish...including what has to be one of the best car chase set ups I've seen on a screen in decades

Taken is very enjoyable too but way more heightened and leaning towards the cartoon revenge action side of things..

I mean both of those are classics in their own right but neither of those were netflix produced films right? So I'm not really comparing it against them

Like I said, some of those netflix produced films, the ones they financed for their platform. (not necessarily the foreign films they just bought the rights to) were fairly meh for me, big stars maybe and solid enough but ultimately so so...I'd include extraction in that......in fact I can't remember many that I sat through and felt enthusiastic about at the end (the killer had a bit about it and wasn't bad I suppose......hitman. for all the hype and a likeable/enjoyable enough performance from Powell..again meh enough....the rest very forgettable if not excruciating in some cases)

Look it has it's flaws and this is all subjective but I'm unmoved in my review....I think Rebel Ridge has a lot going for it

Just finished watching The Decameron.

It's alright, very light, frothy - sometimes overstretched- comedy. Has some surprisingly good characters and acting, and then some mind numbing terrible ones.

Good to see another Derry Girls actor doing new stuff.
