Who Is Erin Carter?
(2023)

Because he's my best friend!!!!
I gave this 40 minutes, as with others I found the main character very unlikeable, she's friends with a police officer who helps her dispose of a body ahe has just killed. They both dig a grave and put the body in, then she asks the police officer "why are you helping me?" he replies "because you're married to my best friend", I couldn't believe this awful plot line and truly terrible writing. The direction is also very poor, so I won't be waisting my time with further episodes. Is it me or is netflix getting worse with time? This is poor stuff indeed, please give us something with a bit of originality!

Belfast
(2021)

Belfast? Borefest
Sorry but as an Irishman of a similar age to the main character portrayed in the film, I found (like many others) the street scenes to be too sterile and almost theatre like, to me it was just the filmakers trying to create "art" rather than to be gritty and real.

This may seem petty to most of you but it gave me an instant dislike to the film as it seemed to start off quite "lovey" or high brow as per Brannagh The North of Ireland is a complex story, not really told here.

Gave the film 1 hour of watching before I left, I also cannot stand van morrisons music but that is my problem not yours😁

Keep Breathing
(2022)

Burned by netflix too many times!!!
Sorry folks, only gave this 1 episode to try, for me it was the poor direction that made me bail, just not giving netflix my precious time to be wasted by hoping this turns a corner!

Rogue Agent
(2022)

Unbelievable but true
Anderton is literally statuesque in this, holding the whole story together, I saw a documentary on this and it was hard to believe, such a shame the bo***x wasn't thrown from a bridge!

Resident Evil
(2022)

Not for me
Watched 4 episodes but gave up, too much fluff for which I think it will be just a cliché fest, one thing annoys me, why do the umbrella soldiers wear storm trooper like gear, when there's no atmospheric issues? Is it just to look cool? Sorry, I give up, a waste of my time, try harder netflix!!

The Batman
(2022)

Bore fest
I've seen all this before, since it began in 1989, the brooding batman in eye liner, the rain and dark of Gotham city, nothing changes, nothing new, just the same old tormented batman.

De slag om de Schelde
(2020)

Terrible continuity... But
The glider pilot keeps changing the model of his lee enfield rifle in every scene, the British troops at the end of the film also wear a helmet introduced in the 1950s????

No Time to Die
(2021)

Too little, too late.
Usual suspects here, the henchmen with automatic weapons that can't hit anything, the warped villian with the secret island, bond saves the world and then gets sentimental, sorry just didn't work foe me.

Bloodshot
(2020)

Taking the pee mate
Good action and storyline but the chase through "London" was quite insulting, an attempt was made to use European cars, but it was clearly an American street scape, what a shame!

Midway
(2019)

Cardboard costumes
This is not a bad film and the cgi is not as bad as other reviewers say, but the uniforms worn by the actors is a terrible slur on the men and women of the US military, they look like cheap linen full of creases, the more I watched the more angry I became, and I'm not American merican I'm Irish!

The Serpent
(2021)

1 week later, 2 days before, six months ealier
Alot of time line jumping that tries to be clever but is ultimately annoying. The story could have been told in half the tíme , but is good with great production values.

Sophie: A Murder in West Cork
(2021)

Still a mystery
Good overview of a story I remember from all those years ago (I'm Irish). The pain of sophie's family is harrowing, the limitations of evidence frustrating, all that's left is gut human instinct of who is really telling the truth?

Nobody
(2021)

Good but not great
The random entry of the bad guys, just said it all for me as a plot that we've all seen before. The main character seemed all contradiction and this is why it's a five from me.

Halston
(2021)

Not a fan of Ewan, but.....
Very enjoyable put simply, mc greggor is brilliant in the role, great costumes and sets, and most importantly acting!

!!!!!

Army of the Dead
(2021)

Could have been a gem
Very annoying father - daughter element, I know it's just zombies but there are rules!! What A shame,but there go.

The Pursuit of Love
(2021)

50:50
It's as above (50/50) for me on first episode. The characters are quite caricature, the dance scene with Lord Merlin in his pyjamas, I thought was a dream sequence, I couldn't see the conservative, whip yielding , german killing, uncle Matthew tolerating such a performance! ! The soundtrack is a play at the peaky blinders success, so we'll have to see how it goes....

Your Honor
(2020)

Don't believe the hype
Ni feeling for anyone in this, really disappointed with all that happened!

Birdsong
(2012)

"Not as good as the book" blah, blah
Always the same with the highbrow book readers, but film is a different medium with limitations, this is simply a moving story through the madness of war.

Love and Monsters
(2020)

Outstanding Entertainment
Really enjoyed watching this with my family, I love apocalypse /zombie movies and thís was a brilliant take on it.

¿Quién Mató a Sara?
(2021)

Bonkers!
The guy starts his all out revenge from his old family house that his entire enemies know, gave it one episode, that's it moved on.

Suburra - La serie
(2017)

After series 1 it just got silly
As per other reviews, the first series was good but into S2 episode 1 it went off the rails with stupid improbability

Sentinelle
(2021)

Not bad
A simple revenge film, that has the heroine using her military skills to exact revenge.

Dix pour cent
(2015)

Ab fab!
Pure entertainment, humorous and easy going, pity they used American English for the subtitles eg "my bad" but a brilliant show with super French sophisticated cast............

Marcella
(2016)

Bright yellow mustang!?
Based in Northern Ireland, the whole plot can be characterised by the scene where a hood driving in said car is involved in a shooting and nobody seems to have witnessed it, in a council estate! The plot is just too hard to find believable, the five stars is for the previous series.

Greyhound
(2020)

Outstanding
It just jumps right in there, really good, no hero's, just men doing their job, really enjoyed this, as did my wife and 15 year old daughter, who was surprised by the term "wolf pack", a tribute to the men of the Atlantic convoys.
