Well worth a watch, but not worthy of a top 20 place. Perhaps you should have packed midfield or tried a more attacking formation. I probably wouldn't put it in my top 20 either. Not as good as Gomorrah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Storyville-Under the wire. BBC4. Not a drama but a documentary but wow! True story of Marie Colvin and Paul Conroy, plus a group of French journalists who reported from Homs at the height of fighting in 2012. So tense you will forget to breathe.

SaintRam Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Finished season 2 of the Punisher at the weekend. Pretty good. Similar strengths and weaknesses to season 1. Primary antagonist very interesting. Secondary antagonist not so much. Recommended viewing if you don't know about it. Violent and well acted, both seasons have interesting and engaging forays into difficult topics like PTSD and war veterans trying to reintegrate into society etc. The Punisher series prologue was in Daredevil season 2, so that's good to watch if you fancy it - but not needed. I'd give the Punisher stuff overall an A- Also watched Castlevania on Netflix last week. It's an animation, and not many episodes, but its not too bad. Based on the games, which I've never played, but knowing nothing about them doesn't detract. Vampires n that. It's oddly paced at times but has decent action scenes. Quite gory. I'd give it a C+ Season 2 of American Gods starts mid March. I'm looking forward to having my brain melted again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Finally got round to watching season 2 of Westworld yesterday. Far better than the reviewers had lead me to believe. Not as good as season one but still compelling with very interesting subject matter. Anyone seen any of Chernobyl yet? I'm hearing really good things. The trailer for the BBC's His Dark Material's show makes it look appealing, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they've retold the story as accurately as possible then it's a near flawless production in every respect. But considering the subject matter and that it's depicting something that really happened, it is really really bleak to watch. I'm still glad I did though. Sorry, just realized yours was an old post and that you've probably watched it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on your point of accuracy, I've seen some articles written by Russians dotted around describing it as the most accurate portrayal of anything during the soviet era, both by the West or Russia itself. Not just in physical/information detail but also in personality and mannerisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot compare it to season 1 very well, cos I watched S1 two years ago and have had lots of alcohol, lots of sleep and watched many other Netflix shows since then, albeit I do remember enjoying it. I don't feel I enjoyed this as much, although I did enjoy it. WIthout giving too much away, this left a lot open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
