I too Like Lesley Sharp, she was the reason I started to watch even after the bad review from IMBD. Your comments do have some merit but remember it's a show for entertainment and got to give it some artistic license. As for the kid didn't he say "they don't realise I know Croatian so they talk about their deals around me, thinking I don't understand" or something like that. That's why he is useful on the inside. Anyway a pretty good show whatever the flaws. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Logosone Posted June 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2021 I'm watching "Hand of God". Not a docu on Maradonna vs England, but an excellent TV series about a judge in LA who lives through murder, son's suicide, hallucinations and...well, you gotta see it.

I’m always really confused when I read the AV forum why put so much effort into getting the right VPN, I guess the answer is sport. Sorry, a little bit off topic, but choosing a VPN is not just about the ability to access particular content. One very important factor when choosing a provider is the location of that provider. IMHO it is better to choose a provider who is outside the "14 eyes" alliance and thus will be less vulnerable to government scrutiny. NordVPN is one such provider with it's HQ in Panama. Some useful info here: https://vpnpro.com/vpn-basics/5-eyes-9-eyes-14-eyes/#14-eyes-alliance Apologies if I am "teaching my granny to suck eggs" here.

To Catch A Smuggler Couple of series about US customs et al, catching Smugglers - who'd have guessed...???? It's ok, fairly predictable, but I always enjoy someone getting busted with Class A's.

I think as we get old - & hopefully wiser ????, we've watched most of the movies/TV shows, & so often the stuff these days is just a rehash. Aren't there supposed to be only 7 stories in the world, y'know 'Rags to Ritches', 'fighting the monster' etc? But as mentioned earlier, it's the Director who really makes a difference, to sometimes a most time worn plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a Sci-Fi fan in a rush-I just downloaded it--I was about 20 minutes into the film before I realized there were no actors--not only that, but the whole "Movie" was pictures of stones while this women rambled on in the background. IMDB gives it a 7 .... "The score was nearly perfect and the story was quite compelling. As art, I liked it quite well"....... IMDB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
