The Donut King - Cambodian refugee makes good
8.2 / 10
www.imdb.com/title/tt10214496

I'm no wannabe mobster, gangster or wiseguy but I do love the genre, with The Sopranos amongst my very favourite programs and The Godfather being my favourite film. Everyone and their dog know of the Godfather trilogy but I just came across the 1977 tv edition, The Godfather Saga (aka The Godfather Epic).

 

It is simply the first two Godfather films edited so that they are in chronological order rather than jumping back and forth through time. The best thing about it is the inclusion of several deleted scenes, which I am loving.

Just watched a good movie starring Kevin Costner and Diane Lane called, "Let him go," and despite the lame title it was enjoyable after a slow start. Well worth a watch.

If you like the genre and haven't tried Gomorrah, do yourself a favour and have a look.

Yes, thanks, we love that. I've just started on Gigantes, that's looking really good judging by the first couple of episodes.

Yep

Gigantes was really good.

Series 2 is available as well.

TENET, and I haven't a clue. Forward and backward time running together is befuddling my poor brain. ????

Move over Dirty Harry there's a new 'Enforcer' in town. Meet Dan, 'The Pharmacist' man. ????

Agreed, it's available everywhere now, definitely requires a second screening!

 

It's not that often I see something very new in a movie but this movie has it....

Spoiler Alert! Question: Did Kat shoot Nator with what looks like  flare gun ? If so, why does he only have a small hole in his chest?

Possibly because the flare from the incendiary ammunition makes the  projectile look bigger than what it actually is.

Also watched it and was utterly bored three quarters of the way through because it had lost me completely.

Too smart for its own good IMO and gone are the days when a movie would hold you from start to finish.

 

I'm not even going to try to watch it again as it would be a waste of two hours of my life!

 

PS. And trying to envisage Kenneth Branagh as a Russian "criminal" was another thing I have against it, because he just didn't fit.

Documentary - Who Killed the Lyon Sisters?

 

Thought this was excellent.
Hard going at times though.
On Lime Torrents.

Summary: The scenario was unfathomable. The details traumatized an entire region. On March 25, 1975, 12-year-old Sheila Lyon and her little sister, 10-year old Katherine, walked half a mile from their home to a shopping mall in Wheaton, Maryland, and were never seen again.

Mosul was okay for an action movie. It's on Netflix. HillBilly Ellegy was okay too. The Liberator series was quite good. I didn't think I would like watching the cartoon-real actors mix but it was decent enough. Only one season of that WW2 series.

The fall of the fake general on December 2nd.

 

    Can't wait for the next episode. 

high ground great aussie movie beautiful scenery 

Read that all the James Bond movies were now on You Tube, but with adverts. So downloaded from P Bay the whole series, 48GB in 1080. Should keep me going for a while.

Decided to watch "Gladiator" again, only this time the "extended version" which I think was around three hours long?

I couldn't tell what was added to the original, or where for that matter, but all the same it was still very enjoyable.

 

IMO it is movies like this that will stay in people's minds and be enjoyed for many years to come, along with some other classics, however I just cannot see that the mishmash of a movie I watched the other night, "Tenet" will do likewise.

Honest Thief starring Liam Neeson now available with subs on RARBG

 

Watched "Mank" on Netflix.

Thought it was brilliant. Oscar-worthy performance by Gary Oldman. Amanda Seyfried and Charles Dance were great as well.

 

Can be balanced with another viewing of Citizen Kane, and the American Experience documentary "The Battle Over Citizen Kane".

 

 

 

Also watched both seasons of Happy Valley. Loved it.

This out this week on the net..

 

Episode 1 out there now at most places.

 

 

 

Interesting 3 part documentary "The Dambusters story" available on RARBG

Yes it was really good as expected but its so annoying when they don't release it all at once! Keep you waiting a full week for each new episode like we are living in ancient times.

I just wait until the series finishes and then binge watch.

I'm not one to usually watch one week at a time.
