It's actually quite decent and not a re-run of his "Taken" character.I've heard it reported that Liam Neeson turned down Bond back in the day because a) he promised his g/f he wouldn't and b) because he didn't want to be typecast into action hero roled and that there was "plenty of time for that when [he was] older"
Guess that time has come. And fair play to him.

Watched it all in 1 go last night.
Pretty dark and disturbing. Superb acting from the lead lady.
Finished it last night, really good as a study of abuse and the effect that it has on people. Not always an easy watch, but well worth it.Watched it all in 1 go last night.

Netflix has suddenly decided that all my devices aren't part of my household so won't let me login.
I can reset via email but unfortunately (my fault) I can't get into that email account. Can't remember password and I've tried to reset it without success.
Just been on Netflix help chat and basically they can't help.
So time to cancel the payment.
I don't think I'll setup a new account to be honest.

Just finished this, not bad and had a few nice cars in it.Far beyond what he's done over the last few years, this was much deeper and very though provoking, reflecting a very troubled time in fairly recent Irish history.
The supporting cast were also brilliant and included some very well known Irish actors.
As noted quite a few nice, very period cars. It avoids the problem a few films have of just having some cars that are correct for the period. There are also a lot of cars that pre-date the actual mid-70s setting which is of course, much more accurate.
Very highly recommended for me.

Watched Baby Reindeer following all the recommendations on here.
I know I’m in the minority but didn’t enjoy it at all, that story could have been told in two episodes with a lot of unnecessary fluff. But what do I know!
Very watchable, but I’d say it was longer than it needed to be. I know I’m in the minority but didn’t enjoy it at all, that story could have been told in two episodes with a lot of unnecessary fluff. But what do I know!

.I'm making my way through Dark, as everyone seems to say it's great.
I mean, the story's compelling, but it suffers from the "too many characters" problem, compounded by different people playing the same characters. It would be alright if the various actors looked somewhat alike or if the filmakers used subtle cues like associating certain colours with certain characters, but nope...
Enjoying it, though. It doesn't seem to have quite the same amount of padding as most Netflix series do. And the subtitles force me to concentrate while watching it on the treadmill; which pushes the fact that I'm on the treadmill further back in my mind. The acid test for whether or not a Netflix series is engaging...
