Just watched "Nowhere" the other night. Ana Castillo with a powerful performance. Very disturbing at times and a lot of suspense but a remarkable story of survival and perserverence.

Really???
I was so disappointed! It’s not a bad movie but i felt the story was kind of rushed. Maybe i would have enjoyed it more had i seen it in a movie theatre, who knows.
I don't see how you could do a movie about Napoleon without rushing the story. Most biopics are 2-2.5 hours, you have to sacrifice something.
They should have a Netflix 8-10 Episode series to tell the full story. Rushing and compacting history is never appropriate!
The 2012 Film on Lincoln by Steven Spielberg was generally loved by critics but I was disappointed that it didn't show other aspects of Lincoln's life, including his long, distinguished and successful career as an attorney before he went into politics and eventually became President, or his very famous debates with Stephen Douglas which lifted him up into national prominence. Those debates were the start of a rich national tradition of debates in the U.S. Yet ignored by the movie!!!!! Disappointing!!!

I can’t disagree. Napoleon’s story would be better told in a miniseries. However the interest from viewers might not be there so it probably will not be made in the near future considering the production costs it would incur.

NOPE
I watched this sci-fi movie yesterday mostly because it’s a Jordan Peele movie & i’m a big fan of his work. It got great reviews after it came out. I really liked it but for me the best Jordan Peele movie was the first one i saw which was Get Out. For those out there who are unfamiliar with Peele’s movies think of The Twilight Zone. Of you’re a fan of the various Twilight Zone series or The Twilight Zone movie than you’ll love his movies.

I agree on both counts. Get Out i’ve watched a couple times more. Really good movie!
I really liked Nope a lot! It was inspired by different genres and really made you think. The main character is really likeable
I agree. I absolutely love good filmaking. However these type of films are not for everyone. And although i liked them very much & own both movies i’m not sure i’ll want to watch them again.
True but he doesn’t speak much. The girl was the movie’s most interesting character in my opinion.
Longlegs got rave reviews, especially from Stephen King himself.
I am a huge fan of this type of film and I understand why they are not for everyone. When I saw brandon cronenberg's new film in the theater last year for example the friends i was accompanied by really disliked it but i personally enjoyed it
i agree! i think i relate to him because i'm also an introvert who's passionate about what i do
