Ah..thanks..will try.There's a ton of content the page of recommendations will never show you based on what they think you like. There are search codes for genres though. This site lists a bunch of them, although it looks like it's just a selection from the total:

(There's nothing secret about this though.)
Maybe I misunderstand you, but these codes have nothing to do with VPN. You can use them on in your browser once you're logged in to Netflix to get a certain list of Netflix films - but obviously only the films within that category that are available in your country's version of Netflix. For example: https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/9196 will give you a list of what Netflix calls 'Southeast Asian Movies'.
What i mean is that i will try those. And on the other unrelated stuff i tried vpn and it doesnt work.
Ah okay!
did you watch the assembly cut? it cleans it up a fair bit, but it's still not a patch on first two
Can't be bothered. The mess is just too much to salvage. It's dire even for B movie standard. I like aliens for what it is, gun totting marines vs zerg of aliens. They killed the only likeable character early on.
She was very good. Great singing and acting. She might actually be the best in the movie.
Certainly better than Ode to Joy, no doubt.
I watched it recently enjoyed it. Agree with the moral dilemma with the ending, I honestly have no idea what I would have done in that situation.
@Cheimoon would've just re-watched Ode to Joy
Would you know it, I watched it both before and after Gone Baby Gone! A modern day classic, I'd list it alongside The Godfather Pt 1, but it had to be higher because the acting and, frankly, the narrative are just much better in Ode to Joy.
Admittedly I've never seen GBG but have you seen Prisoners? I always thought it was one of the stronger movies in the kidnapped kid genre.
Nope, and I had never heard of it either! I'll keep it in mind.
Great movie. Love Gyllenhaal and Jackman in that one.
…yes.
This conversation made me realize again why I don't do ratings. I mean, I enjoyed Ode to Joy (sorry @Rooney in Paris) so I'd want to give it a positive rating - meaning at least 6/10. Anything below that I would consider a film that fails more than it succeeds. (Maybe I'm too influenced in that by the Dutch 1-10 school grading system, but anyway.) But the 6/10 for Ode to Joy would be completely incomparable to the 7/10 I might give to, say, The Godfather 3. Or maybe I should give that one an 8/10, but then it's hard to really distinguish films at the top, cause, say, The Godfather 1 or The Third Man or Heat aren't all 9/10 or 10/10 in the same way. I could use different scales for non-serious and serious films instead, but any such classification would be both condescending and hard to maintain for great films that don't have huge depth (say, The Apartment).
So yeah, no, anyway.
I agree with you. I don't do ratings either, just impressions of films, it's so bloody relative I don't see the point in it, for all the reasons you've mentioned. Also, Ode to Joy.

I'm like you, seen then all (except this one) on day 1 release at the cinema. Huge fan. But the writing was on the wall after 7. They should have just ended it there after the passing of Paul Walker, who was the heart of the franchise. Now it's just a vehicle (no pun intended) to inflate Vin Diesels ego.
They went WAY over the top of the superhuman stuff. Plus 2 dipshits in space and that truck scene. Just no. There’s only so much I can suspend my belief.
Agreed man. Worst yet, they have talented actors like our Charlize Theron wasting her time appearing in this
(probably a good pay day for very little “acting”)Yeah and Helen Mirren. It's like watching a 3-a-side football match with KDB (Theron), Chiellini (Mirren) and Troy Deeney (Vin Diesel) and the latter is the CaptainAgreed man.

I recently watched Ides Of March which was ok.

so bad I’ve blocked out Helen Mirren as wellOther than the obvious 1970s movies, I'd say The Insider, The Constant Gardener and if can do subtitles The Man Standing Next: The Assassination of a President
Saw it today, and agree with this. One of those easy-to-watch blockbusters. Enjoyed Jesse Plemons in this as well.
Z, Syriana, maybe Michael Clayton?
Great movie that one, enjoyed it. Hugh Jackman
The Lives of Others, A Most Wanted Man, Thirteen Days.
It had a fairly wide release in the UK and I imagine it will be available for streaming fairly soon but I'm not sure about South Africa.
I guess it was pretty unique in the year 2000? It reminds me of a Tarantino film with less interesting dialogue and more silliness. Some of the scenes are funny, like the caravan with no wheels and the borderline immortal Russian guy being delirious. But Jason Statham's deadpan deliveries didn't really do it for me. The 3 "stooges" and Vinnie Jones weren't particularly interesting either.
