Injustice

Great series - must watch

(Edit) 28/04/2020

If you like murder mysteries then watch this series. Quite fast paced and gripping in some scenes. James Purefoy is excellent as the Barrister with morals and a law upon himself. Hoping there is another follow on series as absolutely loved this one !

The Five

If you like thrillers - watch this

(Edit) 16/04/2020

From the author Harlan Coben and just knew this would be good. As usual he keeps you guessing to the very last minute before revealing the full story. Full on action/adventure/murder/mystery with a sometimes complicated plot so demands your full attention. There are more of his movies/tv series available and I have watched them all on Paradiso and ALL of them are good. If you like this one there are more !

Bait

Not to my liking I'm afraid

(Edit) 21/03/2020

Didn't realise this film was in black and white and seemed to be set in the 1980's. Too dark and moody for my liking, local fisherman versus

holiday home visitors and the fracas ensued by differences of stature and moral principles.

Saying that my husband quite enjoyed it.

No Second Chance

Real suspense entertainment

(Edit) 01/03/2020

Avid reader of Harlan Coben books and thought I'd try a film. Made in France with English subtitles this riveting thriller is a 6 part series and a must watch in my opinion. Good actors, none of which I've every heard of, carry the plot to perfection with lots of twists and turns which will leave you guessing to the last episode. Thoroughly enjoyed it and looking forward to the next one.

Late Night

Okay

(Edit) 11/02/2020

Not Emma Thompson's best movie in my opinion, bit too much over acting involved and plot a bit weak.

Angel Has Fallen

Good watch

(Edit) 08/01/2020

Took a while to get going but really enjoyed this movie. Lots of action and strong lead character with plausible script made this very watchable.

Comes highly recommended.

Vice

Dull & boring

(Edit) 17/12/2019

I was three quarters of an hour into this film and could stand it no longer. Could say I lost interest, or I'd lost the plot more like.

Definitely not my type of entertainment and will stay away from political dramas from now on.

Cold Pursuit

Quite entertaining

(Edit) 08/12/2019

Not Liam's best film but true to form and will keep you watching until the end. Lots of shooting and killing so not for the squeamish

but good storyline and keeps you entertained.

Victoria

Don't bother

(Edit) 23/11/2019

I sat through an hour of this boring, dark movie waiting for some action and wish I chosen something different. Not my cup of tea at all. Note to self: must start reading reviews BEFORE I put them on my watch list. Lesson learnt !

Wonder

Liked this

(Edit) 11/11/2019

Found this movie quite heart rendering and enjoyed it. Good performances from all lead actors and good storyline.

Although it is a story about physical disability I think it applies to every disability.

What Men Want

Absolute Rubbish !

(Edit) 30/09/2019

Don't bother with this one, spin off from the movie 'What Women Want'' staring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt and comes nowhere near it.

Poor, overacting by leads with no real storyline and halfway through I wondered why I was wasting my time watching it ? Rather watch paint dry.

Mile 22

Great movie

(Edit) 10/09/2019

This is non stop action and makes you hold your breath on occasions. Bit gruesome and bloody but that's the name of the game.

Good storyline and gripping edge of the seat stuff.

I enjoyed it.

Fortitude

Watch this from Series 1

(Edit) 29/08/2019

Love this series which is both gripping and addictive. Just like a good book you can't put down until you've reached the end.

Full of mystery and suspense with a good measure of gore thrown in.

Their Finest

Good watch

(Edit) 19/08/2019

Probably not one for the youngsters but really got into this movie with all main cast members giving a good performance. Good war time storyline with a sad ending but very watchable.

Loved all Gemma's performances in other films she has appeared in and thought she was well suited to this role. Strong support from Bill Nighy

who is so adept but thought love interest was a bit weak. Great Sunday afternoon viewing.

The Hitman's Bodyguard

Good action movie

(Edit) 22/07/2019

Actors well cast, action packed and quite comical, just my sort of film to be honest. Good all round entertainment for adults in my opinion. Would highly recommend if you like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible and Ryan movies. Good plot with many car chases

and a small amount of love interest from the two main characters.
