I just watched Everything Everywhere All at Once (on C4 streaming).
What an utterly glorious movie. Totally ridiculous and beautifully charming.

Redeye. Well paced, mostly believable, well made, hoping that season 2 isn't just a rehash.
The Old Man: well made, draws you in, but Jeff Bridges isn't quite fully believable as an action star, (although he makes as good a fist of it as he can).

I've got series 2 of that to make a start on, but S1 was rather pedestrian in its pacing so it'll keep until everything else has been watched.Rockburner wrote: Sun Jan 04, 2026 10:24 am The Old Man: well made, draws you in, but Jeff Bridges isn't quite fully believable as an action star, (although he makes as good a fist of it as he can).

Just watched the last part of 4 "Titanic sinks tonight". Fantastic insite into the real life experiences of those who survived. Brilliant.

Re: Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.
Redeye - second series was watchable
I’m a bit nonplussed by The Nightwatchman. Loved the 1st series - but this is just very low brow bang crash wallop …
I’m getting bored

Tron Ares... Unless you're a massive massive fanboi of the genre, it's just a generic pile of shite.
The one with the Ducati was still vaguely interesting 10 or so years back... but this one is just a bit shite.
I'll watch until the end but i'm an hour or so in for now with very little to see

Re: Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.
Currently (re)watching Fargo - had forgotten how good it was (season one anyway - I've not had the opportunity to rewatch the rest yet).
Also Sherlock, that I never watched the first time around. Surprisingly good for that sort of thing (although not as good as the Homes and Watson fillum with Will Ferrell & John C. Reilly
)

We'd be boring if we all thought the same though (see what I did there?)
