Not a film but has anybody watched the Netflix series 'Shooter'? I've just finished the first series and it's more than decent so far.

Saw the first series, thought it was “ok”. Not seen the second (or third?).

The film was quality though.
 
Watched The Mauritanian.

Not usually one for law dramas but thought it was really good by all accounts.

Solid 7.8/10. Would probably be higher if these sorts of films were my cuppa tea.

Watching "Deceit" ... drama about the Rachel Nickell murder and how Colin Stagg, the prime suspect, was the subject of a police 'honey trap' ... really good.
 
Watched the first episode of Deceit about an undercover police op to try and catch who they believed to be the killer of Rachel Nickell.

Bound to be embellished a little, but an incredible story so far. Had no idea about this story and the extent to which they went to get him.

Very good watch so far.

Watched the whole series (4 episodes) last week ... thought it was excellent ... commented above.

Just finished white lotus with the missus. Pretty funny with a lot of underlying themes. Great soundtrack too. 8.5/10
 
Snake Eyes - 4.7
Not completely terrible but doesn't really do the original GI Joe movie much justice though.

Sweet Girl - 6.1
Little twist in there that had me albeit I guessed how the ending would go, decent enough film, probably one you wouldn't watch again though.

I went and accidentally watched the last episode first which left me confused as hell but also knowing the big twist <doh>
 
Reminiscence

I can understand why this one divides opinion. Excellent cast let down by a weak script. It borrows heavily from Inception, Blade Runner, Memento and Minority Report. Combines my fave genres (crime, thriller and sci-fi) and probably over-stretches as a result but definitely worth a go. Rebecca Ferguson is superb in it, I'd say her best work yet.

7/10
 
Watched Terminator 2 a few days ago

Definitely enjoyed it more when I was 30 years younger

downgraded from a 9.6 I gave it in 91 to a 7.8
