Ben A. has such a great touch as director -- it's hard to reconcile with his acting, or at least with his choice of roles. Daredevil....ya Though Colin Farrell was un ironically great in that Loved the town. You are right, he’s a great director Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JujuFish Posted January 20, 2023 Report Share Posted January 20, 2023 I don't think I even watched 10 movies last year, but my favorite was easily Everything Everywhere All at Once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjd1001 Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 My wife and I started watching the new 'national treasure' on Disney, and its pretty rough. We are half way through so we are going to probably stick though it, but some if it makes no sense. some of the 'puzzles' they solve really seem like there is no explanation, and the acting is pretty bad. The main character, she shows very little emotion, the character seems lifeless and lacking any kind of charisma. Some reviews we read said that the woman who plays her is a great actress and destined for stardom, but I don't see that at all. Peaky Blinders was bought up. That I watched a few episodes, it seemed like it was well written and for sure the acting was very very good, but it just didn't hook me enough to stick with it. I can see how it can appeal to people who like that kind of show however. For a 'cartoon' and what some consider a 'kids movie' I thought Puss in Boots the last wish was good. Basically, its a cartoon cat that is 90% Antionio Banderas' portrayal of Zorro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 We Own This City on HBO is pretty darn good. It's a 6 episode miniseries dramatization of the 2017 rico case against the Baltimore PD's Gun Trace Taskforce. It's written by David Simon, who also wrote The Wire. Jon Bernthal plays one of the main cops and he's just great. His Baltimore accent is right on and hilarious. Gritty show. If you liked The Wire, take 3 days and give it a watch. Up next is Tulsa King. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just way too preachy and not interesting or entertaining. Separately: - The Northman -- pretty bad - Bullet Train -- dumb but entertaining 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) In the past month, I have binged… Yellowstone 1883 1923 Tulsa King Mayor of Kingstown …and over the last few months watched all the seasons of Call the Midwife with my wife, not so much for the primary subject matter, but a revealing look at life in the poverty stricken East End of London during the 50’s and 60’s.

nfreeman Posted February 12, 2023 Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 My wife and I binged Season 2 of The White Lotus over the past couple of weeks. It was pretty good, especially considering we didn't like Season 1 at all, and in fact bailed on it halfway through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 I've pretty much bailed on the Star Wars universe since "The Last Jedi," which I enjoyed but overall thought was pretty thin, but "Andor" got so much critical praise that I gave it a shot. I finished it last night and really enjoyed it. I'll probably give the Mandalorian a shot as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 The cord has been cut. For 38 years I've walked this earth and I've done it with premium cable/satellite for all of them(minus the years I spent in the dorms at UB.) As of tomorrow, that all ends. Reminds me of the old Jim Gaffigan bit: "no cable? Where do you send your $500 bucks a month?!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember a single thing about The Mandalorian aside from the 2 episodes that Bill Burr appears in. I've seen every episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
