I recorded this one off the TV, 'tis the season for made for TV Christmas movies after all!

Before the first advert break even appeared it was obvious how this film was going to go. It's not really a Christmas film though and there definitely aren't enough festively bedecked dogs.

The storyline is sickly sweet but it does at least give us a fun little romcom. It's a pleasant little film to watch but it isn't going to make anyone's top festive features. It's more likely to fit the bill of harmless film to watch while you put the decorations up or wrap presents.

Julie Gonzalo is a familiar face from lots of different TV shows, most recently Supergirl and she's no bad in the lead role, it's definitely her niece in the film that steals the show though, along with the floofs!

Black Mirror  - Season 1
Black Mirror - Season 1
2011 | Sci-Fi
These three near-future / alternative reality episodes tell of a different chilling aspect of human life. All are fantastical, though worryingly plausible. Charlie Brooker has pretty much nailed the line between believable and speculative fiction.
The first episode sees the UK prime minister forced into considering an unpleasant act after a ransom demand from a kidnapper. It serves as a good representation of media coverage and their involvement in spreading panic and stoking outrage.
The next episode was a near-future look at a world where some classes of people spend their days on exercise bikes, presumably powering society. They are forced to watch endless hours of a small number of TV shows and are charged a fee to skip pop-up adverts for porn shows. The indictment of where society is headed, including the disposability of talent shows and how much more mandatory watching adverts could become, felt like something of a warning to turn back now!
The final episode revolved around people having the ability to instantaneously rewind and re-view moments of their lives and cast it to TV screens. The story looks at how this plays a part in a man's suspicions over his wife's faithfulness to their marriage. Similar to the previous 2 episodes, it shows that the technology, and people's reliance on it, does not help real life in any way, rather it further fuels suspicion and malcontent.
Three stories about the way the human race is headed told brilliantly.

Easy to use site and app
Option to download things in order to watch them later without needing an internet connection
Possibly my best friend
I use Netflix on multiple devices including my laptop, TV, playstation and phone. On all devices (but especially the phone app) the service is so user-friendly. Struggling to find something to watch? No problem, Netflix will recommend you different genres of films and TV shows based on the different things you have previously watched and on how highly you have rated them.

One of the more recently added features has been a god send. The ability to download TV shows and films whilst you have an internet connection in order for you to watch them at a later time when you may not have a connection is brilliant for those long journeys or when you're just running low on data.
The only downside about this is that not everything is available to download at this moment in time but things are always being added so I'm sure it's just a matter of time until your favourite things to watch are available!

I highly recommend this app for everyone of all ages.
