The Hammer2021 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Ridley has only one or two episodes out so far and I'm not rushing to watch it but I will when the series is complete but it is noticeable it has received some stinking reviews. I will also delay watching The Capture which I expect to be as good as Series one. So I am filling my time with Resident Alien which gets excellent reviews and indeed has some good ideas in it but suffers a bit from unlikely casting and all the ills associated with it.

Will27 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Murder in a Small Town RAR A new two-part Channel 5 docuseries re-examines the case of Jodi Jones, who was killed in woods near Easthouses, Midlothian, 18 years ago. Murder in a Small Town, which began last night (24 February), takes another look at the case against Luke Mitchell, convicted of brutally murdering his girlfriend in 2003, a claim he denies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IvorBiggun2 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Just finished 'Sniper: The White Raven'. I can't believe IMDb only gave it a 5.8/10. Well worth more. Quote 9/10 Probably the best international film I've seen. Bonus: it was created by a newb filmmaker, and is based on true events.

Popular Post The Hammer2021 Posted September 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2022 This Is Spinal Tap (1984). Possibly the original, one and only, the best rockumentary but spoof musucal documentary SPINAL TAP. I watched it again last week and remembered how funny it was and how realistic. It was so accurate in the depiction of heavy rock bands and their fans it offended quite a few heavy rock fans and musicians who didn't know it was satire, a spoof, a comedy. Even today the argument about volume: "Turn it up to 11" resonates. Its worth rewatching and for those who haven't seen it you're in for a treat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope BL2 is better than BL1. I fear not. One wonders if Mercurio has shot his wad and have we seen enough of James Nesbitt.

IMO, IMDB and Rotten Tomtoes give a decent opinion of most shows. Generally, if something has really bad reviews from a lot of people, it's pretty bad. There are exceptions due to personal taste etc, but I think you usually get a decent idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, I once read a review for a movie on IMDB and someone wrote a review complaining that in order to follow the movie he had to actually use his brain and think. He didn't like that one bit - the result being - 1 out of 10 for the movie..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hammer2021 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 INDUSTRY The best series I have seen in ages is a drama about the banking industry. The protagonists when not having sex, snorting coke, smoking meth, dropping pills, taking sex selfies, eating exquisite food in the lush Michelin guide restaurants of London - are working in a bank. Creating, selling, producing, complex financial instuments in million pound deals peddled on a word and handshake. They inhabit the world of old money aristocracy, the barrow boy bruiser, academia, high culture and the rough trade noveaux rich. BUT THIS IS NOT THE 80s when cocaine fueled the city. Its post 2008 and actual takes in the covid era. A brilliantly written script of arcane dialogue spoken by the drug fueled wheelers dealer characters who are foul mouthed, driven and troubled and sexualy promiscuous. One of the best, most addictive series I have watched in a long time. Great dialogue: ' As one trader speaks to his female colleague: "Listen you c**t I worry about you as much I worry about climate change." Brilliant! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
