Re: Recommendations of All Things Netflix

Anyone watched the new Adam Sandler movie Uncut Gems yet? Just dropped on Netflix on the weekend.

It's received plenty of praise and there was some Oscar buzz for Sandler, although ultimately he wasn't nominated.

I found it slightly uncomfortable to watch with Sandler's character such a self destructive screw up but overall I enjoyed it. Kevin Garnett plays a prominent role as himself for any NBA fans.

I didn't think uncut gems was a good show at all. Struggled to watch the last 15 minutes. As you say, very uncomfortable to watch someone screwing up time and time again

Anyone watch season two of Lost in Space? I have watched all ten episodes and whilst it is a bit cheesy, I still enjoyed it.

I loved Uncut Gems. I’m a total sucker for Adam Sandler When He Tries and found the plot to be gripping.

The other Safdie bros movie Good Time is on Netflix and is probably even better, if you’re willing to give them another chance. Has Robert Pattinson playing whatever the opposite of an anti hero is.

Pretty sure I'm going to get sucked into the Tiger King vortex. Anyone watched it?

Just finished watching the four part series called Unorthodox.

If anyone is interested into an insight of Hasidic Jews and trying to break away from the culture, then you will enjoy this. A very powerful performance by the young Israeli actress Shira Hass. One of the best dramas I have seen for some time.

That is next on our list. Glad to hear it’s quality.
We are currently watching The Young Pope. A few years late, better late than never.

We watched it. Honestly... it’s crap.
But super weird. Probably shock value and it lasts like 2 episodes.

Yeah, I lasted about one and a half episodes before I became bored.

That's literally my niche, I've been waiting and waiting for them to make a show just for me!

3/4 of the way through Giri/Haji. Really enjoying it.
Have watched some of Tiger King. Not enthralled. Will start S3 of Ozark next.

Haha look at the high brow types in here shunning the Tiger King phenomenon.

I reckon for me it's likely a mood show. I finished The Man in the High Castle on Amazon yesterday evening, and watched a bit of Tiger King before bed and just couldn't relate so switched over to Ozark...…..which is starting to become a bit formulaic in itself.

Really enjoyed Giri/Haji, it's very different and quirkey.
