It's a documentary.

I was really hoping it was a comedy with a title like that. Oh well, never mind:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12888462/

Watched "Operation Final" yesterday on Netflix. It's about the kidnapping of a Nazi figure from Chile by the Israeli secret service in the 60s.

Based on a true story. Good adaption of the story, storytelling and actors. Give it 7 out of 10.

I watched season one on Hulu in the US and enjoyed it.  I mentioned the show to a friend in Canberra and he said he never heard of it...

LOD s06e07... fantastic eh?

 

Loved the scene where Terry Boyle was returned home.

 

His real Mum was there too.

 

Brought a tear to my eye.

The Sons of Sam: A Descent Into Darkness

 

New Netflix series out this week.

 

 

Danny.Legend.God  I quite enjoyed this offbeat mockumentary about a Russian Mafia wannabee. Available on 1337X and probably other places. Ignore the IMDB low score, it's much, much better than that.

Mosquito Coast. Enjoyed the first two episodes of this immensely, one of the best starts to a TV series I've seen in a long time. 8/10 from me.

100% agree! When it opened I was not sure but soon I got in to it and was sad I could not watch more by the end of 2nd episode. Gripping start to a series.

Sorry, Argentina. You are correct. It's a movie based on real events. No classic documentary.

Oh yer Adolf Eichmann, I remember watching the trial...they televised it to 37 countries. There was quite a good movie made about that..the arguments the producer and his partner had over it...good acting

Killing Escobar-----4-May--Doco

 

The Blurb---In 1989, McAleese and his friend Dave Tomkins were hired by a Colombian drug cartel to undertake a mission to kill the world’s biggest cocaine dealer, Pablo Escobar. In Colombia, he gathered a select team of ex-Special Forces operatives and began training for a lightning raid on Escobar’s Hacienda. After 11 weeks of intense preparation, the men launched the operation which ultimately led to disaster and would have a devastating effect on McAleese and others. With unprecedented access to Peter and other members of his team, this is the first full account of that fateful mission and the dark consequences for those involved. With full access to McAleese’s personal archive, as well as never-before-seen amateur footage of the operation, Killing Escobar weaves this material alongside dramatic reconstruction and interviews from McAleese and his fellow mercenaries. We also hear from one of Pablo  Escobar’s bodyguards, members of America’s DEA and the security chief of the Colombian drug cartel that wanted Escobar eliminated.

Thought I'd posted this up yesterday....????

 

Anyway, it's directed by Guy Ritchie & Jason Statham's in it. So it should be half decent.
