Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

If you are looking for a sexy Euro romp, you have to see the movie Raw. So much fun.

Schitt's Creek continues to be just delightful.

this thread needs more repping for Marco Polo

is it good? I saw it and was curious and then forgot to check it out

also: if you like cold brooding detective-ing, check out Shetland. I'm hooked. it's SO good.

i just heard about that via an article somewhere, something about the best crime shows from each country. at least the ones available to stream.

oh yeah this article:

https://decider.com/2017/10/09/best-crime-series-from-every-country/

that reminds me, has anyone watched suburra? i've heard some good things

ian was digging it. i'm probably going to read the book and watch the film first before i jump into the series.

i was wondering about suburra as well

this review of ep 2 made me think i need to get on board

https://decider.com/2017/10/09/suburra-recap-season-1-episode-2/

the preview looked like extremely my shit

this is over on amazon prime, but my wife and i have been enjoying the Kettering Incident, some good x-files in tasmania vibes...

My 6 month free netflix deal is just about to end. So i need to work out if I can keep it or give it up.
Just getting so used to having it around.

Suburra looks excellent, also I'm buzzing for S3 of Gomorrah that is coming soon.

I think I liked the Kettering Incident but got kind of irritated by a relatively slow pace followed by "whoops here's the exposition" in the last couple episodes

ketting incident is good!! final ep is odd but i loved all of it

that actress is so tall!

Confession Tapes is good

Elizabeth Debicki, definitely tall for sure

Cube, Cube 2, and Cube Zero! My prayers have been answered. I was just thinking a WEEK ago how i wished they were on Netflix. I never tire of them. Wish there was a Cube t.v. show. That was on every day. Forever.

Mindhunter is A+ in case anyonecis wondering

really enjoyed the first two eps.

oh, awesome! also, there is a cube-y kinda thing on netflix called "Circle" that was similarly horrible/enjoyable imo

there’s a movie called pyramid too idk if that helps

how many eps is mindhunter?

10 eps

jeez on EP 3 I just had a realization about who that ADT tech is, amazing.

yipes i’m such a nerd i knew from the city/state title card

i can't believe i missed guessing it from the title card and when his co-worker called him by his first name in EP 2 : [

aaaaaholy shit!!!!!!!!

I just had a birthday, and I was gonna ask my parents to get me a Filmstruck+Criterion subscription, but honestly now there's no point

“Big mouth” is way funnier than I expected

I just started mind hunter and I'm pissed off at the non-70s haircuts

Watched a Big Mouth trailer on YouTube and made the mistake of looking at the comments. Guess the populace is more prudish than I expected.

Mindhunter mindhunter mindhunter

Is there a thread?

David Fincher's serial killer chat 'em up MINDHUNTER

I've been watching and enjoying Big Mouth. It's a weird combination of wholesome and extremely graphic. Maya Rudolph as the female hormone monster cracks my shit up.

Jason Manzoukas is the best.

it's really good

SUBURRA: BLOOD OF ROME aka sex, drugs, violence and ZONING (and the wickedest of these is zoning, my son)

(mild spoilers in thread, mostly by me)

I tried to watch the "It Was Fifty Years Ago Today!" documentary, hoping it was an updated version of the wonderful and similarly titled Sgt Pepper doc that came out in the 80s. Unfortunately, this new one is terrible. Two hours of 70 year old music critics saying nothing new or interesting, and somehow they didnt have budget or permissions to include any actual music of the time.

i haven't watched Suburra yet, since I'm doing book --> movie ---> show, and i just started the book. but i started watching GOMORRA and holy shit is that a good show. Loving the characters and setting thus far. my favorite aspect is just how hellish Naples looks, everywhere it's so blocky and industrial. even the camorra don lives in a depressing-looking blasted out area, hermetically sealed off inside with his terrible son and the worst furniture in the world.

How OTT is the violence on Suburra? Been debating whether to watch it with my rather squeamish wife

Please let's talk about the furniture and the giant gold frames around every wall-mounted tv.

thanks to netflix i got to witness the globe-spanning golden age of 21st century international cinema. holy smokes, so many great movies from so many places. they make mincemeat out of most u.s. movies that i see these days. could an american making movies now ever make a movie like stray dogs? i doubt it. started watching The Ornithologist last night. have to go back to it tonight. have about an hour left. so very cool. and if it were made here it would be, like, ryan gosling in the ozarks and be completely lame.

it's infrequent but not very restrained

S3 of Gomorra finally starts next month
