On the plus side, apparently the new Will Farrel Eurovision movie on Netflix is good.

Nice! Saw that come up the other night.

Wrecked

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1316622/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2

A man trapped in a car wreck at the bottom of a ravine must overcome incredible odds to survive.

AFTER I attempted to watch this, I found out the budget for the film was <$10,000. I made it 15 mins in before turning it off.

1/10.

Did anyone here watch Power Rangers back in the 90s? If so, I've got something for you (I watched this last night). It's a fan made movie of Power Rangers that has a dark twist to it. I found it quite entertaining lol. There's also some eye candy in this. Rita from the original Power Rangers series returns in this movie. It's only 14 min guys, give it a chance.

6/10

Saw this a few years back. I thought it was great but it got taken down at the time 'cause they were planning to make a power rangers movie and threatened to sue.

I only came across it as it was on my YouTube homepage for some reason, I think I watched one of the uploaders other videos so it was on there.

Billy Madison

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112508/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

In order to inherit his fed up father's hotel empire, an immature and lazy man must repeat grades 1-12 all over again.

Who hasn't seen this movie? It's seriously one of the greatest comedies that I've seen, and it has so many famous one-liners from it. If you haven't seen this movie, do yourself a favor and watch it.

8½/10

Missed opportunity to describe it as "Billy Maddison is an adult who goes back to school, back to school, to prove to dadda he's not a fool".

@Wahesh do you watch a movie a night or something?

Haha was thinking the same. I mean, I love my movies but @Wahesh is Pro level lol

Everytime I try to watch a movie I think, "I don't have time for this". Then I watch 4 hours of TV shows.

Grease

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077631/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Good girl Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton-John) and greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) fell in love over the summer. When they unexpectedly discover they're now in the same high school, will they be able to rekindle their romance?

Sonny and Doody keep this movie funny. A great comedy musical-comedy-romance film all-round, but the only annoying thing I found in this movie is that many of the couples constantly bickered and broke up throughout - apart from that it was great. Also, I know that people like to say that being a teenager in the 80s would've been great, but I reckon being a teenager in the late 50s what it.

9/10

The short answer is yes.

With Covid-19 I am now working from home 4 days per week, and that means I don't have to waste 1 hour commuting to work, and another hour commuting from work, so I wake up later, and go to sleep later. It's unlikely that I'll watch a movie if a great game of footy is on though (last Friday Storm/Roosters 27-25 for instance). Last night game was over early in the second half... so I made the most of Netflix.

Berlin Syndrome

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3335606/

A passionate holiday romance leads to an obsessive relationship, when an Australian photojournalist wakes one morning in a Berlin apartment and is unable to leave.

Our very own Teresa Palmer stars in this movie. After a chance run-in on the street with a charming local man, she and he hit it off and have what was supposed to be a one-night stand. However he becomes obsessed with her and won't let her leave his apartment. He claims her to be his property and uses bondage techniques to make her submit to his desires.

Gosh I gotta say this... Teresa Palmer is a butterface in this movie, however her body is insanely HOT.

7/10

The Old Guard



https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7556122/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

A covert team of immortal mercenaries are suddenly exposed and must now fight to keep their identity a secret just as an unexpected new member is discovered.

This movie was great. Basically a team of immortal warriors hundred of years old who bring justice to the earth in areas they feel necessary. Charlize Theron (Andy) is the oldest, and their leader, and always makes the tough calls. It's unique in it's own ways the way you see the team interact with each other, and the ending to this movie... well it was freaking crazy, left me hanging on for what I'm sure is going to be a sequel.

8½/10

The House



https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4481514/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

After the town takes away their daughter's college scholarship, a couple start an illegal casino in their friend's house to make back the money.

Pretty much what you'd expect from a Will Ferrell film. A lot of laughs and a lot of stupidity. I watched this immediately after The Old Guard so was a bit weary to give it a proper reivew.

6½/10

The Hurricane Heist



https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5360952/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

Thieves attempt a massive heist against the U.S. Treasury as a Category 5 hurricane approaches one of its Mint facilities.

The background of this movie is based on what actually happens daily in the US Treasury. Hundred of millions of dollars in degraded US currency is destroyed through shredders due to their poor state. The thieves in this mission push to steal a bulk of this money with the distraction of a Cat 5 hurricane coming towards them. It seems simple enough. Can a lone employee and 2 brothers overcome a team of greedy thieves whilst battling the monster hurricane?

Not a bad movie, typical piles of US-based action in here. A lot of guns and high body count (that to be fair, they were trying to keep low).

5/10

Watched it yesterday. I would give it the same rating. Enjoyable movie.

Hopefully they make a sequel. So many of these movies set up a sequels that never get made.
