"This is a brilliant new novel by E. Lockhart. I’ve always adored a good generational drama and this is deeply fascinating reading and soaked in suspense. And the ending is utterly spooky"

"We need one costume drama in here, and I love the fact that Kirk Douglas gave blacklisted Dalton Trumbo a shot at the script. This is a great film on many levels."

Raw and gritty action
Brilliant cop drama
A great buddy cop drama that has a real dramatic level of realism. It's largely the story of a pair of cops on duty in a tough part of L.A as seen through their bodycams, squad car dashboard and other cctv footage. The acting is spot on and the finale will have you on the edge of your seat. One of the best of it's genre I've seen in years!

A great horror drama about a girl vampire who befriends a bullied boy in Sweden, A great foreign film done on a small budget that has some great cinematography I have to add. It can be a bit slow, it's more drama than horror action, but this makes certain scenes have more of an impact. One of the better vampire films around but the emphasis is on the relationship between the two children. Check it out!

The War Within
Da 5 Bloods- is a excellent war drama, the acting, the drama, spike lee did a excellent job with this film.

The plot: Four African American vets battle the forces of man and nature when they return to Vietnam seeking the remains of their fallen squad leader and the gold fortune he helped them hide.

Delroy Lindo is excellent in this.

I highly recordmend watching this. It is on netflix so go watch it.

Great gritty Drama
A really good powerful drama set at a care home in Liverpool just as the Covid pandemic starts.
The 2 great actors both from Liverpool are great in this. Jodi is showing recently she is a lot more than Villanelle of Killing Eve. Stephen Graham is great in what ever he does. Along with a good support cast with some well known faces. It's gritty, raw and very compelling.

Good ensemble cast drama
A weird drama currently on Amazon Prime with a big cast line up. Including Nicole Kidman, Luke Evans, Melissa McCarthy and Samara Weaving to name a few. They all go to a wellness centre in a remote location to deal with their various issues. Is everything as it seems as Marsham (Kidman) who leads the retreat hand picked this group for other reasons. Her unconventional methods start to panic the group.
A decent drama with so many good actors on show. I did feel there would be a bizarre twist out of left field totally unexpected. However it never quite goes that extreme.
OK for a short series to distract you for a while.

Great Drama
A great film showing how quickly your life can change. Ford gives a very strong performance as a man who goes from one extreme to another after being shot.
