not many ww2 ships and u boats around.

"Greyhound" was quite good but could have been better with more visible action.

 

We hear a lot of "Fire" and "Depth Charge " commands but see very little of the results of hits, just flashes on the horizon.

 

Merchant ships get torpedoed but all we see is flashes in the distance, same with shellfire hits from Toms ship just flashes in the distance.  With the torpedos just missing the ship, hard to see the trails in the water. 

 

Good action with Tom Hanks on the bridge of his ship while chasing the subs but could have had more action out on the high seas. 

 

Still worth a watch.

Motherless Brooklyn

Yes good movie.........nice twist end.......

[Andrew Dwyer]

Catching up with some tv series I dl’d before :

 

Don’t f#ck with cats: 

Starts off as some weird lame documentary but on episode two it takes a more serious turn and gets better .

 

Guilt: 

A Scottish drama, 2 brothers knock down and kill a pensioner late at night, an attempt at a cover up seems to have worked until........

 

Hatton Garden:

A true story of the heist on Hatton Garden safe deposit boxes by a group of ageing and incompetent thieves.

( Timothy Spall version ).

 

Hatfields and McCoys:

Story of a bloody feud between two large families shortly after the American civil war. A good cast, Kevin Costner, Bill Paxton, Tom Berenger, Powers Boothe.

I watched it this afternoon and thought it was dreadful.

 

All the repetitive commands, just so annoying.

The last one wouldn't really interest me.

 

However, I have seen the first three already and would agree they're worth watching.

The first one (Don't F#ck with Cats) I also felt started off slow, but definitely picked up as it went on.

Hatfields and McCoys is based on a true story, always appeals to me more, and is definitely worthy of a watch.

Outcry, a 5 part documentary which aired on Showtime.

 

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11615234/

 

A five-part documentary series examining the gripping story of high school football star Greg Kelley who was arrested, convicted and jailed for sexual assault of a 4-year-old boy, and his supporters' quest for truth and justice.

 

Incredible incompetence by the local police department and his defense lawyer.

Really enjoyed Animal Kingdom over the last couple of weeks, 4 series each 12 episodes so it took some time.

Heard Kate Aidie on BBC saying how good The Sopranos was, even though 20 years old now, so I downloaded the first series. Got to the first 5 minutes of S1 E2, and now have 32 Gb more space on my hard drive !

The Shiners 2020 full movie on You Tubes is a light watch.

[pineapple01]

Operation Buffalo is ideal to fall asleep to.

Thought it was boring, tedious poop.

An action movie with absolutely no action.

Yer I can see that Rarg has dried up on it........you can get different versions of it on you tube....running from 23 min to 40+...and Dr Phil and a few others running parts of it. You can (I think ) watch it --stream or download it (if it has seeds) on BITCHUTE...46 min..... BitChute is a good site to remember for lost stuff.

Good luck

 

BTW*** That tread you started on religion must be the biggest thread TV has had..........

Just finished watching Hamilton  It was OK--not the 9 point something that IMDB seems to think it deserves , but very watchable---being non American, I didn't know a lot about him so maybe that made it more interesting.

 

BTW**     Have they pulled down his statue yet?.............

Watched "Archive" last night and thought it was a "messy" movie with a few loose ends, and had to think hard about the ending.

 

An ok movie even if the plot threads sometimes seem to lead nowhere!

[Peter Denis]

Watched 'Hard Times'.

Thought it an appropriate choice in the current covid and Visa amnesty climate. 

The 1975 movie features Charles Bronson in his usual role as a quiet loner, trying to make ends meet as a bare-knuckle fighter during the Great Depression (1930s).

Bronson action movies despite being filmed almost 50 years ago and clear 70s-80s style are still entertaining and way better than the present Seagal, Norris or Van Damme tripe.

If you liked 'Hard Times', you will probably also enjoy 'Mr Majestic', 'The Evil that Men Do' and the first 'Death Wish' movie (the later ones are trash).

reading up on the fire on the us warship,( i hope no one was seriously injured) i found that the ship was used for 2 movies 'battleship 2012' and 'act of valor 2012' i must of missed this movie so i watched it last night and it was full of action, battleship i will try another day

I've been picking up some good movies and series from here recently as not a lot on UK TV worth watching at the moment so thanks all for your suggestions. Of course it's all down to personal taste, some movies I turned off after 10 minutes and some series I abandoned after 1 episode. I don't know if it's been mentioned here but I watched 'Heist of the Century' on Sky movies last night about a bank heist in Argentina with English sub titles. If you like your bank jobs with a bit of humor and no violence this is excellent.

Ive tried those download sites and come too a firm conclusion. They hate Me.!.

Foreign movies are always welcome, I just can't find it on any of my usual sites, even not under the original "El robo del siglo" title.

Anyone with better luck or skills than I?

It has a 7.3 IMDB rating, so worth a view.
