Movie recommendations

[Terry57]

My favourite genres are horror and thriller. Has anyone seen anything good lately?

I have a recommendation that isn't in my usual genres. I watched "The Last Full Measure" the other night, and it was fantastic. I cried quite a few times during the movie. It's a war movie, but yet it isn't. The war scenes are all flashbacks. It is a true story which made it even more amazing.

So what is everyone watching?

I'm kind of a sci-fi and action sort. Haven't watched much in the way of current movies lately, but I did see the latest of The Matrix series, Resurrection. From the first one, I loved the concept, but as is so common with movie franchises, they don't necessarily get better as they go along. I still enjoyed all of them though, because you get invested in the characters, and it's just fun. We saw the first one in the theater, and afterwards, on the way to the car, were speechless, pondering what just happened. Just blown away by the whole idea, and of course, the special effects were pretty good for the time.

Ever seen It and It 2? The newer ones not the mini series in 1990.

I haven't watched those. I really loved the miniseries. Do you think it's better than the original?

So the newest one doesn't hold up? I loved the first one, I love Keanu Reeves in everything.

I still liked the new one, it's just different. Hard to watch Neo and Trinity looking so much older too. I do like Keanu Reeves. Supposedly he's a very gracious down to earth guy, and also trains extensively with the weapons so he's pretty stinking convincing on screen. John Wick is another fun one if you're into action/shooting lots of people flicks. I'm not really a Bill and Ted fan though.

Well I'd love to learn if some good movies! I only have access to Netflix though...

I really loved the Longmire series.

Tho neither sci-fi my favorite, or thriller.

I'm trying to think if a brief series that hopefully will continue that is horror sort of

I'm mostly have to read . The Snowman by Nesbo was very good. Thriller detective

For horror how about the “the autopsy of Jane Doe”
the other one I liked was “Look away”

I also loved Longmire. I'll see if I can find that book, I love a good detective thriller.
Have you read any Jonathan Kellerman books? He is a wonderful author.

I watched the first season of this on TV, then it went to a channel I'd have to stream that I don't think was available. I really enjoyed that show, I'll look again and see where it is on here.

The YT series “Impulse “
It’s much closer to the book series “Jumper” than the horrible movie.
Steven Gould the author had a hand in the series, assistant director or some such.
Unfortunately it was canceled after the second season.
left a lot of unanswered questions.

I don't think I've seen that. I hate getting into a new show then they cancel it without tying things up. I really liked Prodigal Son, but at least there was sort of an ending in the last episode when they cancelled it.

I'm obsessed with Encanto
Not because of the plot, but the SONGS
