"Fair Game" with Naomi Watts and Sean Penn. Good movie. Kinda scary.
Only saw Ex Machina out of these. I thought it it was horrible, not the movie, the story. So scary. So , … I don’t even know how to describe.Interstellar (2014). Although it was critically praised, and although I tend to like science fiction movies, I held off on this one because it looked to me, well, rather depressing. And while it is mostly a downer, it is quite well-made and ultimately very satisfying. I would say that Interstellar, Ex Machina, and Blade Runner 2049 represent the best science fiction movies I've seen in the last decade.
By a great margin.
We have it on the telly now.Last night, we finished the last of a Netflix Limited series show called, Bodies. 8, 1-hour episodes, a British Crime Thriller. Four detectives, four time periods of London. Lots of characters and story lines that are somehow related too. Sometimes, I had to stop and verify my memory with DH. This is a show that demands attention. Not a bad way to spend a few evenings. I do recommend it.
It gets better as it goes along...believe it or not!We have it on the telly now.
Okie dokie. I'm looking forward to watching more when we have time.It gets better as it goes along...believe it or not!
Watched some of that.Over the weekend, we watched the Netflix Limited Series, All the Light We Cannot See. 4, 1-hour+/- episodes that take place in Nazi-Occupied France during WWII. A French blind girl, a young Nazi soldier, a radio and a cursed, but fantastic Jewell...are woven into an intriguing story, as the two main characters recall their lives and what has brought them to this place.
We enjoyed it very much. If you have time for a double-feature, or spread it out over a number of days, worth the watch. Cast includes Hugh Laurie (haven't seen him in like forever!) and Mark Ruffalo (he isn't green in this one ).

I didn't get all the way through the first time as it triggered my anxiety with all the sped-up scenes. But TB watched it that night and told me that it gets better. So, just after the Oscars, I watched it all the way through and loved it—no panic attacks cause I knew what to expect.Everything, Everywhere, All At Once

I really liked it. I watched it 3 times.
Mr bliss did not like it and watched the first 30 minutes.
Parts of it were SO SILLY it was refreshing in the midst of heavy theories of multiple worlds/parallel in time. A mother daughter relationship full of angst. My favorite parts were the rocks. You'll know what I'm talking about when you see it.
