Good Netflix Films

Post by Yorick »

The missus just subscribed to Netflix so looking for some good recommendations.
Don't need to be blockbuster or award winning. I'm happy with easy watching sometimes.
Hate sci-fi ;)

Watched Living on Netflix last night. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9051908/

The complete antithesis of an action blockbuster, but Bill Nighy is superb. Bit disjointed in places, but worth a watch.

It's a remake of an old Kurosawa film, with the author Kazuo Ishiguro doing the adaptation.
