Finishing Narcos season 3, the one about the Cali cartel. Tremendous television once again. I think I liked it even more than seasons 1-2 - guy who played Pablo Escobar was a bit too cartoonish. The actor who plays Miguel Rodriguez is top notch.
 
It’s been said already (by Matty I think) but wow Chernobyl is amazing television. Maybe I’ve said it already too.

Needs to be said again if that’s the case. From the score to the makeup to the superb acting abs writing. My gosh.

9.75 Trons out of 10.
 
Just sped through Narcos: Mexico over the last week. Still not sure what's so fascinating about drug traffickers but this is yet another excellent entry in the Narcos universe.👌BTW if you don't want to spoil the season for yourself, don't look up the story of the Guadalajara cartel on Wikipedia. The show stays real close to the actual events.

Oh and nice little reveal at the very end - I'm giddy for next season. :stevie:
 
So it's like this.

I'm a huge Coen brothers guy. I've seen all their movies. Whenever one comes up in my listings that I haven't seen for a couple years, I watch it again. I imagine that will be the case until I die.

I never regret it.

So I have seen all their movies a bunch of times - except one. The Ladykillers. I have only seen that once. I recall being a bit dubious about it but my memory is foggy. I see it is rated pretty low on the main sites - although the critics rating is about the same as The Hudsucker Proxy and I love that.

Point being, I am about to give The Ladykillers a second viewing.

So that's what I have to say about that.

Weird, I just went down this same path last week.

Save yourself, it will not be a good experience. It is nowhere near as good as The Hudsucker Proxy. It is actually pretty bad. And very annoying.

Good luck.
 
Yeah that didn't really come together, did it? Talkin' bout The Ladykillers (2004)

Everyone sure does appear to be trying real hard - but no. (I exclude Tom Hanks from that implied snideness. I thought he was good.)

I guess by definition, something has to be the Coens worst movie - and for me this is it, a notch below Hail Caesar. 4.8 out of 10
