    Had a bunch of shit on my Netflix list for ages. One of them was particularly good:

    Spotlight

    Fucking amazing cast - got a lot of time for all those actors. And really meaty subject matter in terms of historical fact.

    Very good movie, and was a surprise winner of the Best Picture that year.

    You and your cryptic feelings. What next, an overstatement? And then we have to guess at the actual emotion? Is this a game?

    Love Wedding Repeat on Netflix.

    This bastard movie lured me in pretending to be a mash up of Four Weddings and a Funeral and Sliding Doors and it is instead a pile of shit. The 'com' is entirely cringe, with about eleventy billion dick jokes. (One male character's every line is talking about his dick in comparison to the lead man's.) The rom is almost non existent. This had a great premise and murdered it. The cast and setting deserved better. This flick won't score you credits with the lady of the house, it's too stupid and unfunny and unromantic.

    1 oh whoops we roofied the wrong drink out of 5 I'm not Scottish but wearing a kilt to a wedding in Italy so the script can have more dick jokes stars.

    Cold Blood Legacy.

    Similar in premise to Polar with Mads Mikkelson, this one stars Jean Reno, one of my favourite actors. So many good things about this movie on paper but on film it is a Shiloh Pitt. Zero worthwhile dialogue, no coherent plot, appealing continuity and the action sequences are missing out on any actual action.Watch this film at your peril.

    5 levels of canard out of 5.

    Don't be mislead by @Mokey - the movie is much worse than she says.

    Not sure you have this ranking thing sorted, or you need to reword your summary...

    @taniwharugby I'm lost on the ranking system, I'm sure it's obvious somewhere but this is a long thread

    I'm also lost on fern upvote etiquette, sometimes I upvote just not to be rude..
