^^^^ Sounds interesting. I might check it out :)


Just watched Battleship 2012 - 5,8 rating but my rating would be more like 8, at least!
Thriller, Sci-Fi, Adventure, Action

I love it! It should be on these pages already as I'd seen it before but even a 2nd watch is very much worthwhile.
Great story, I really like the cast -Liam Neeson is one of 'em- and the special effects are good as well.

The Lost Symbol - 2021 - 6,9 rating - Robert Langdon TV series
Thank you, Slim Gym for mentioning this one!

Not with Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon. And having watched almost 4 episodes now it somehow is missing something.
Maybe that's just the story itself, or the lack of Tom Hanks' energy & vibe, not sure. But I don't find it nearly as captivating as the movies, although it isn't bad either.

absolutely the way I feel ....and I am thinking of quitting it , after only two episodes.... it's dragging along .. too bad , cause i waited a while for it to air .... the build up to it was better .... oh ! well ???

Treadstone - 2019 - rating 7
One season only. Seems promising!

The Treadstone project, having created super spy Jason Bourne, turns its attention on a new protocol to develop unstoppable superhuman assassins.

Extant - 2014-2015 - SciFi series
With Halle Berry.

3 episodes in so far, and it's very intriguing. Hope it stays that way and it doesn't get messed up by all kinds of BS!
Even though it's already 7 yrs old I'd never seen it.

Snake Eyes - 2021 -
My rating would be 8 for sure. Many gave it a really low rating because of GI Joe blablabla. I don't know that so I'm just going by what this movie offered. Apart from that I know a bit about Japanese culture, which I totally respect. Plus I love good katana fights.
I'm rating it an 8, although inclined to go for 9.

After saving the life of their heir apparent, tenacious loner Snake Eyes is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage where he is taught the ways of the ninja warrior. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes' honor and allegiance will be tested - even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.

Tehran series - 2020- 7,4 rating

I only just started watching it but it is very intriguing!

Tehran is the story of Tamar Rabinyan, a Mossad computer hacker-agent undertaking her very first mission in the heart of a hostile and menacing city, which also happens to be the place of her birth. Tasked with disabling an Iranian nuclear reactor, her mission has implications not just for the Middle East, but for the entire world order. When the Mossad mission fails, Tamar goes rogue in Tehran and...

Hunter Killer - 2017 - rating IMBD 6,6 mine would be more like 9.

Gerard Butler, Michael Niqvist
The latter past away before the movie was out and he is mentioned in the end credits. This was the last movie he made. Brilliant actor!

Anywho, brilliant movie as well, even when you've seen it before. It just never wears thin.

Troll Hunter - 2010

Norwegian movie but available with English subs :)
It's shot as if they're making real footage. Actually, it's set up as if someone found that footage and made a film to show you all the recordings. So in that sense a bit like the Blair Witch Project.
The ending was kind of open, which I always find disappointing, but that's personal :)

All in all I liked it, even though I had to read subs.

Lost in Space series that started in 2018.

Season 3 has just been released, but it's been 2 yrs since season 2. Not sure if I can get back into the story. Completely forgotten how that ended.
