This show was a completely joy and I did not expect that it would reach the highs that it did. There is something to be said for these one-off series that allow the writer to drop the viewer right into the middle of the story without having to do character development. In fact, the opposite happens - the viewer gets to discover the character. Each show seemed to be better than the next with the culmination being an absolutely masterful (and emotional ending). I hope this makes it to American tv at some point for those that do not have alternative methods of finding this show.

I highly recommend giving this series a watch. Just note, that it's a drama first and a comedy second.
The best thing Australian TV has produced in decades. And I say that as someone who has never liked Tim Minchin's stuff and as someone who has seen every episode of Dr Harry.
This is surprisingly good - it does take a bit of time to follow the timeline jumps but well worth the effort.
I loved Brooker's Wipes, which seemed to balance genuine insight about the nature of the news with cutting satire, but this is a highly watered down version of that which almost misses the point of what makes the Wipe series work. The jokes are flat, its targets fairly obvious, with celebrities over-performing their delivery, and it doesn't really move beyond broad brushed stereotypes.
This is a great series so far!
I don't think I'd never loved a villain so much!
+ it's on HBOnordic in Sweden!! #happytvnerd
Greta Gerwig is such a talented Writer, Director, and Actor. I was so excited to see this movie and was not disappointed. I look forward to everything Greta does and can’t wait to see what’s next.
Lady Bird is a must see in theaters!
Not great by any critical standards, but if you love music and Rock'n'Roll you'll love this movie, no doubt. It doesn't have a lot going for it but it successfully encompasses the joy of music, and all that comes with it.
Oh how I wanted to love this movie. I am generally a fan of Richard Curtis' work and I love the cast. Why the hell is this movie more than two hours? They partied a lot. We get it. People loved rock and roll - got that too. Ugh.... such a waste. I could watch Nighy and Hoffman in just about anything.... they were completely wasted in this film.

I feel like just about everyone will connect with this movie in some way. It's funny, sad, charming and honest. Saoirse Ronan's performance is one of the best of the year. Her chemistry with Laurie Metcalf makes the Mother/Daughter relationship really work. Lucas Hedges and Tracy Letts are both fantastic too. I think every kid in high school should watch this movie.
Edit: I saw this again and it is still my favorite of the Oscar nominations. It really has a way to make you feel like your in high school again. Makes you realize how much you parents do for you and how much I love mine.
Edit 2: I watched this again, twice in two days, this time with my parents. My dad was cracking up at every time Lady Bird was shit talking her mom while my mom didn't think it was that funny. He also said some of the dad's lines literally right before he said them. After it ended my mom said "That's it? I thought she was going to come back and write her mom a check."
Boseman is fast becoming one of the finest actors of this generation, and he brings to life one chapter of Marshall's career with aplomb. Credit to both men - a celebrated and accomplished lawyer, and the actor who plays him. A good film.
I have not cried for years... I have never cried for any movie in my life. This movie changed that. My God, what an
aweful series of events... the movie is
really good, but you will be very sad...
I had really high expectations for this show and I must say it delivered in every sense. Everything is perfectly done from writing, cinematography to acting. Especially casting is spectacular! For me Michael Sheen stands out the most, his performance as Aziraphale is absolutely adorable. The show is very true to the book as well, so if you're a fan, you will definitely love this.
10/10 from me. I highly recommend it for binge-watching!
I honestly didn't think this show was going to be any good....but damn was I proven wrong. Absolutely love the storyline, characters, and dynamics of the show. Seriously folks, do not pass this one up. Super entertaining and funny with plenty of action!
I do like that it doesn't treat the flat earth bunch as psychos or make fun of them, but there's lots of jaw dropping weird in there provided handily by the subjects.
Was always curious about this show when I first heard about it and now I cant stop watching it!
The only gripe do have is the narrator, he can be such a drama queen. He literally makes everything sound like its ten times worse than what it actually is.
Damn reality TV ;)
This movie clearly wanted to be a HBO mini-series. It's still a good watch, just the pacing is a bit weird.
I am watching it for a 5th time what a good documentary . that's the one you canot miss
Why I can't put 20 to this documentary ?
I watch it again it's like a chess move done by Putin ( what a genius ) working on Trump since so long time
I have to watch it twice SUPER DOCU on VLADIMIR : ) don't miss it :) Vladimir working on TRUMP since a very long times :) that's a very good documentary :) what a super great documentary :) well done mister Jack Bryan :) Vladimir You are the best of all's :) BRAVO well done, nice play chess move :)
Like Deus Ex meets Crank, Upgrade is a stylish, gritty but somehow humorous thriller which is a blast from start to finish.
Brilliant. Just mind-blowingly brilliant. I'm currently speechless and thusly could never heed the words this masterpiece truly deserves. Watch it and never look back.
Oh hi trakt
The' best worst film ever made' tagline is not far off the mark. You could be fooled into thinking the movie was an elaborate joke on the viewers, but after a little research into the film, it really is as inept as you have heard. Brilliantly so. The script, acting, direction, and continuity are all terrible, and that is why the movie is so entertaining. Am looking forward to 'The Disaster Artist' with James Franco as Wiseau, which is inspired because physically there is a resemblance. Franco is a far better actor, of course.
I'm not sure whether to give this a 1 or a 10.
"It is like a movie made by an alien, who has never seen a movie, but has had movies thoroughly explained to him."
Revenge is a classic 70s style rape & revenge flick like a renovated muscle car that doesn't run on story but on cool - and the tank is full.
The director (Coralie Fargeat, writing and directing her first feature-length film) throws herself on the scene like an unpinned hand grenade and blows the screen away. Reminiscent of Tarantino, she can elicit winces as well as laughs (her 80S synth pop reference to Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive tho!) and make every body count.
The actors are solid and the female lead (Italian actress Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz) is totally believable as the bad ass with a nice one. See this film before the backlash kicks in!
I only wish TV of today had the balls that this show had.
They sure as hell don't make them like this any more.
"Put that cookie down. NOW!"
That is Arnold Schwarzenegger's best line ever.
This movie is so underrated
