Was it worth watching? Almost did today.
Having an interest in WWII I found it interesting, some footage is already out there in other clips for some of it. Especially the B17 shot down and the crew bailing out. That was real. It was shot without sound. Thing is for me, that was for real.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis_Belle:_A_Sto...
Another that has popped up is "Thunderbolt" and "Tunisian Victory". Seems a few propaganda films from the US of that age have crept in.
Fauda.
Series about an Israeli military team going after a Palestinian terrorist that they thought was already dead. Well made with plenty of dramatic tension, but let down by the Israeli dialogue which has been crudely dubbed into flat, emotionless English. Enough in the first episode for me to persevere with it, but I'm not sure that I can get past the lips out of sync dialogue
Would have been great had they left it and added subtitles.
Shame.

You should all watch Five Came Back. Just came on Netflix, a 3 part documentary about 5 Hollywood directors who filmed during the war and is commented by modern directors such as Spielberg and del Toro etc.
Really enjoyed it!
Saw that. On my list. Really enjoyed it!

Brilliant brutal Korean thriller/drama, fans of Oldboy will like this
Had a Leon feel to the start of it...then went in a more traditional revenge style... enjoyed it a lot. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1527788/?ref_=nv_sr_4

i smashed through the documentary 3 part series about 5 WW2 filmmakers last night ... "Five Came back"
definitely worth watching!
edit - part 3 is quite a grim watch...
Yup - binged this yesterday and it was very engrossing; great input from Del Toro, Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola.definitely worth watching!
edit - part 3 is quite a grim watch...
Young Offenders - 2 boys from Cork and a bale of cocaine. Amusing, not hilarious but a good all round easy watch (as long as you can understand the Cork accent, which is toned down a bit but still quite strong).
8 episodes into Travellers - again solid rather than outstanding sci-fi but watchable.

Is iZombie Season 3 coming soon to UK Netflix?
It got added yesterday I think Not keen on this new "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" rating system though, if anything I'd like to see the old stars one extended to 10.
I have read that the reason for the thumbs up/down is due to Amy Schumer complaining that her programme had poor ratings, blaming 'trolls'. Not sure how true this is, though.
