Movie recommendations

The Platform 

Any good?

Its worth a watch - you need to suspend reality while watching it.

Ending pissed me off a bit

Personally, I'm struggling to watch much as the whole situation is stressing me.
I've 6 kids in the house and am working from home. Trying to keep them entertained (and fed) at least in some part means loads of kids movies.

Any recommendations for kids movies? We've been through a lot of them. we watched the Sonic movie and Onward over the last week.
Both are good shows.

As mentioned tbrick the Lemony Snicket series is a good job. Each episode between 45mins-1hr but the kids enjoy it even if it is quite dark for a kids show!!

There's a film documentary online for free viewing , Homeland: Iraq Year Zero  by the Iraq film maker Abbas Fahdel,
part 1   https://vimeo.com/123389912
part 2   https://vimeo.com/123265527
He's resident in France but made it home in the days before the 2003 invasion. it was a last chance to film life and living in Iraq before it was destroyed forever, through the eyes of his family preparing for a bleak unknown. The 2nd part documents the  destruction/ looting of a thousands of years old culture and the context for the subsequent descent to chaos.
It's long,  longer than Gone With the Wind. It's GWTW plus Ben Hur long.


There's more than just Netflix.

Same... it's very very grim as well so don't be watching it if you're in a bad place!

Seen 'The Gentlemen'.

Took a wile to get going, but was class in the end.  Hugh Grant was superb as the sleazy photographer and the fella , he he was interviewing, was as cool as hell.

I had a Matthew McConnaghy hard on this week, so I watched a Time to Kill. Great show. Some amount of great actors and actresses in it.

Watched the gentlemen last night as well. Good show. Hugh Grant was brilliant I though. And I wouldn't be his biggest fan.

Hugh Grant has definitely based his creepy character on a real life journo. I thought he was excellent myself in it.

Not a movie but anyone any thoughts on mandalorian? Looks ok thus far though more building up than anything.
