Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Chernobyl Diaries (2012) in Movies
Aug 6, 2018 (Updated Aug 6, 2018)
Not bad
I've been waiting to see this one for a while. Finally found it on Netflix. The acting was decent and cinematography was good. I'm glad they didn't take the "found tapes" route like most horror movies anymore. The story moved along at a good pace and it had enough "spook" factor to keep it interesting. There were a few "jump scares" that, well, weren't that scary but were placed well. A couple of parts were kinda predictable but it didn't take away from the overall appeal of the film. I'd definitely recommend this one. Worth a watch!

Interesting twist on the origins (1 more)
Good stoty
Deviated quite a bit from the comic origins (1 more)
Not up to the high standard we’ve come to enjoy from Marvel shows
Hit&miss
Contains spoilers, click to show
Okay so they avoided the fact that Cloak & Dagger got powers from bad drugs... shame as it would’ve finally left the door open for Sentry.
The story itself wasn’t that bad. Quite a few good twists, a couple of bad guys you’ll love to hate (not quite to Joffery’s level).
Just didn’t have the same kick as Netflix gives its Marvel series... that said, I did enjoy it...

Well Done
This psychological thriller on Netflix turned out to be pretty interesting. Topher Grace did a good job playing his role as the main protagonist. No flashy effects or true scares but the story played out well and ended up being pretty twisted. Kept you wondering what was in his head and what wasn't throughout most of the movie. I'd definitely recommend this one. The cinematography was well done and all the actors played their parts well. It's kind of slow moving at times, but really worth a watch!

Wonderful Insight
I was a bit curious about this book as i have watched the series Narcos on Netflix which has been created from this book. The book is much darker and contains a lot of information about Pablo Escobar that was lacking in the series. This shows his childhood and how he grew to become one of the most notorious Drug lords in the world. If you like your biographical stories then this won't let you down. A fantastic read even for those who have not seen the series.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Chilling Adventures of Sabrina - Part One in TV
Oct 29, 2018
I was thrilled when Netflix picked up the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, I really liked the horror comic, the original comics, and the goofy 90s/00s television show.
This show was sufficiently creepy, and provided me with straight nightmare fuel, as I found out last night. Sabrina was very much the same character as she has been all along, a teenager that makes slightly questionable decisions while trying to do the right thing.
The opening titles comprised of the original art from the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina graphic novel, as well as her first intro panel in the original Sabrina comic.

Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated The Last Heist (2016) in Movies

Meh
Found this one on Netflix. It's very mediocre. The acting was weak and the effects were too. The story wasn't a bad premise but it was told poorly. The action sequences were not very good or realistic. I found myself saying many times over "yeah, right" and I'm not usually one that expects realism from movies. Problem is, if you're trying to make it realistic, then you have to stick to it throughout. It was basically a "bank heist good really bad" movie, not some fantasy style story. I would say that overall this one is NOT worth a watch.
Such a great app!
Always something to watch on this app! Keeps your place if you stop mid way through a film or episode. Brings up lots of recommendations based on other things you have watched previously.
Tv or film, there is something for everyone. The Netflix originals just seem to be getting better and better and sometimes far outweigh a big budget film/series.
As a family of 4 we each have our own profiles so no getting mixed up on who has seen what. By far one of the best tenners I spend each month!

Compelling Viewing
Shark Tank takes some of the richest entrepreneurs known and they sit in judgement over peoples business and product ideas.
Joe Bloggs from the street presents his idea in hope a shark will invest.
Some of the biggest products of the time got a big break on Shark Tank.
It is fiercely compelling to watch people sell their passion projects. Once you start you can’t stop. I binged three season on Netflix in a matter of weeks.

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Dolemite Is My Name (2019) in Movies
Nov 16, 2019
Russ is my name and reviewing movies is my mutha f*@!n' game. First of all, it's so great to see Eddie Murphy back on the scene. And he killed it taking on the role of Rudy Ray Moore in Dolemite is my Name. The story of Rudy Ray Moore and the making of his first movie is hilariously brought to life by an all star cast, and this time around with more money and better production team the Rudy had on Dolemite. If you have Netflix and don't give this a watch then you're just a no business, born insecure, junkyard mutha.

LOVED IT!!!!!
Found this on Netflix and gave it a try. I was hooked after the first episode and binge watched all the way through. I love the thoughts from Joe's head giving reasonings for killing and kidnapping.... the way it comes across I often found myself thinking "I can see his point" and found myself rooting for the bad guy.....not sure what this says about me🤣🤔. Definitely worth a watch and I will be re-watching.
