Some mini series I found on YouTube of all places and thought they were worthy of a mention.

 

Amnesia (2004)

 

John Hannah stars as a detective searching for his missing wife while investigating a strange case of an amnesiac who might not be all he seems.

A Touch of Cloth ( 2012-2015)

 

John Hannah again stars as a detective but this time it is a parody of the more serious crime series we are used to.

Innocent (2018) season 1

 

After 7 years in prison for murdering his wife David Collins has his conviction overturned and is desperate to prove his innocence.

Is anyone going to take one for the team and tackle The Brutalist to see if its worth watching?

Nope.

 

I read the reviews...😵‍💫

It's 3:35 long.

Description is 'visionary'.

 

A poncy word for krap....😅😇

Nope, but I did watch 'Companion', essentially sexbot goes Terminator, which was quite fun.

Sounds like a documentary of the Pukhet/Pattaya/BKK bar-scene.

I'm watching Bad Monkey, which is about a suspended/ex-detective in the Florida Keys who is trying to get his old job back by investigating a wife for the possible murder of her husband for the insurance money. Based on a novel by Carl Hiassen, it's got a little bit of everything: romance, murder, family troubles, and some great locations (and a beautiful Mexican actress). Oh, and also a bad monkey. I like it anyway. Starring Vince Vaughn.


I started it but gave it up.

 

I like Vince Vaughn but his character in this was over the top, talking at 100 miles an hour and everything he said laced with sarcasm, it wore me down !

 

Might give it another go though, now I know what to expect it might grow on me.

Severance - It's pretty brilliant.  But I do like odd-ball shows.  This is right up there with the British version of Utopia.

I'm with you. The first couple of episodes were OK but then it just got tiresome. My boredom threshold is extremely low these days.

I may give it a shot. Productions by "A24" are often pretty good.

Yep, it felt like standup comedy.

Watched it, deadly dull!

DiNiro is like uncorked wine which has sat out in the heat for a few weeks.  Once the toast of the town, now stale and tastes like vinegar.

I watched e02 last night, wife gave up on it first, wishing for the new episode of the “hotel” to drop, and my mind just wandered, just too much going on. Bambi is dead? Wt?

 

I thought Richard Gere was a good choice for The Agency but I thought DeNiro was just thrown in there to add to a bad concept.

I'm with you Kemosabe.

 

I rarely will bother with a movie that long these days.
