Movie recommendations

There is no "perfect" run time for a movie ffs. Entirely dependent on the story being told.

I'm watching the 4 part documentary by Raoul Peck  based  on books by Sven Lindqvist  "Exterminate All the Brutes". Raoul made the superb documentary 'I am not your Negro'  on  James Baldwin,.
EATB is about European colonialism mainly in the America, from its beginnings to aspects of Trump,  modern day and nazi fascism. It should go straight onto every secondary school curriculum

Got around to watching El Camino last night.
Not bad....even though it took me a while to remember what had happened in the lead up to the conclusion of Breaking Bad.

In The Heights ain't Hamilton but it's absolutely brilliant. Lin-Manuel Miranda is a wizard. If you've seen/know Hamilton you can instantly recognise his fingerprints all over it.

Escape from Pretoria - was ok in parts but mostly it did my head in.  The amount of wee torturous scenes as the guys were experimenting with escape issues... I suppose that's the suspense they were going for but for me it was over done.

Looking forward to this - The Sopranos sequel - The Many Saints of Newark

Spent the last 3 nights rewatching The Godfather movies. I remember when GF3 come out and thought it was pretty good. Having watched the 3 in quick succession again - GF3 is muck in comparison.

Three was a horrible movie.

Instead of telling a story, it seemed as though the movie was set up as a series of scenes to pay homage to, while trying to outdo, the originals. Too big. Too noisy. Too many over the top speeches. Trying too hard.

Which is where it was really at odds with one, in which the action and dialogue was really quite understated and believable, with colour and music used to join those scenes together.

Godfather, fantastic although not a patch on the book.
Just finished Official Secrets on Netflix.  Excellent show
