What I'm watching - March 2021

Here’s what I’ve been binge watching this past month :

I’m a sucker for a good murder mystery , so when I heard about THE UNDOING I jumped straight on it . Its a 6 part limited series produced by HBO . I wont give anything away but if you are like me and enjoy a good murder mystery then you should most definitely give this a watch . Nicole Kidman and more so Hugh Grant (who gives the best performance of his career) are excellent in their respective roles . No surprise that they’re both nominated for Golden Globes for their respective roles .

SPACE SWEEPERS is a kick ass action sci-fi flick . I really enjoyed this film , very similar to ‘The Fifth Element’ so if you liked that movie , you’ll defiantly enjoy this . Highly recommended

The ‘SINNER’ series I think is one of the most over looked series on TV and possibly one of the best . The 3rd season is now available on Netflix , If you haven’t seen the first 2 seasons , I would recommended you watch those 2 first (although you don’t need to watch the first 2 in order to understand the 3rd) . Each season follows Bill Pullman’s police detective character on a specific murder case. Bill Pullman is phenomenal in this role and each episode draws you in more and more as the story unfolds leading to a climatic ending . Season 3 is just as good the last two and keeping the standards high for the series .

SNOWPIERCER is also one of my all time favorite movies . They have adapted the movie (which is an adaptation of a graphic novel ) into a TV series . The story has been changed quite allot from its original source material but its still a pretty good premise and a good series . Season 2 is out now on Netlfix

CRIME SCENE: THE VANASHING AT THE CECIL HOTEL is a 4 part true crime documentary series . Netflix has a huge library of really great documentary series and films , and this one can be added to the list. Its about the disappearance of a young girl from a hotel

There was a Chineese film recently added to Netflix (And I am a huge fan of Asian cinema) . The film in question is THE YIN-YANG MASTER : DREAM OF ETERNITY . Its a proper kick ass movie with amazing set pieces , visuals , great acting and a great soundtrack . And its so damn epic . You can only find true epicness like this in an Asian film. How epic you say ? There’s a scene where a shirtless dude with angel wings is wielding a flame sword fighting another shirtless dude on the head of a giant snake … nuff said !

Im totally in love with Noomi Rapace , shes the most underrated actor in my opinion . And her latest outing in THE SECRETS WE KEEP is truly outstanding . Another great flick to check out this month

After the whole MCU climax of Avengers Endgame , I personally have lost some interest in the MCU and their family friendly formulae. Disney have jumped onto the streaming band wagon and are now producing MCU series . I truly had no interest in their newest show WANDAVISION. There wasn’t anything interesting to watch at the time so I jumped into this show. Its not bad , its pretty good . Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany are fantastic to watch and its a great story , but they’re weighed down by a dumbed down and cheesy script , jokes don’t land and are pretty cringe worthy . But I continued to watch only for these two and cos the story is pretty good albeit a little predictable.
