The Movie and TV Thread

Updated:   Published

I started a thread here that I meant to put somewhere else,  and I erased it.  So what to discuss in the coffee lounge?

Have you seen any good movies lately?  

Last movie I saw was "The Last Duel". Pretty good.

Anyone seen "Dune"?  I see it's available for streaming and might rent it.  It's up for an Academy Award for best picture.

Good One is a slow moving film about a 17 year old that goes hiking in New Jersey with her dad and her dad's friend.  The film slowly unfolds about the family dynamics and issues of her father and his friend.  I found the setting gorgeous and the script very good.  The acting was good, although subtle in nature.

It gets a 4 of 4 stars from Roger Ebert review site and enjoys a stunning 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

I've been watching some series on Apple and Netflix and not many movies.  I'll review the shows when I finish but in the meantime I watched The Old Guard 2 on Netflix a continuation of a 2020 movie about a group of immortals that fight evil.  

It's okay for what it is, some light entertainment without much thinking.  Lots of fighting and action.  Critics are apparently not liking this movie.  Like I said it's good for what it is.

Untamed is Netflix series set in Yosemite Park with a lot of great scenery.  It's a six-episode mystery with several layers and a few twists and turns.  It's very good and worth checking out.

I loved this one. So glad they decided to go for a second season instead of a "limited series"

Agreed.  This was worth the watch.
