A typical review is: “Unfortunately the first half felt very uninspired … I’d seen all of this a million times before. It may have worked with a director who was willing to take more risks. That being said, the second half becomes much more intense and grand scale and I was fully immersed. Overall I’d give it a 7.5.”

The film is a sequel to the 2010-2019 series, Luther, which you can view on BritBox.

The official Netflix site for the film is: https://www.netflix.com/title/81280035.  Below is a preview.

The film received mixed reviews.  Critic Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times acclaimed the film generally, stating that “Seven Years in Tibet is an ambitious and beautiful movie with much to interest the patient viewer, but it makes the common mistake of many films about travelers and explorers: It is more concerned with their adventures than with what they discover.”

The official Netflix site for the film is:  https://www.netflix.com/title/1179053  Below is a preview.

Sleepless in Seattle – March 1

Sleepless in Seattle is a 1993 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Nora Ephron and starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.  The film follows a journalist (Ryan) who, despite being newly engaged, becomes enamored with a recently widowed architect (Hanks), when the latter’s son calls in to a talk radio program requesting a new partner for his grieving father.  The film features an ensemble supporting cast including Bill Pullman, Ross Malinger, Rob Reiner, Rosie O’Donnell, Gaby Hoffman, Victor Garber, Rita Wilson, Barbara Garrick, and Carey Lowell.

Sleepless in Seattle received positive reviews, with critics praising Hanks and Ryan’s performances and chemistry in the lead roles. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times said the film was “as ephemeral as a talk show, as contrived as the late show, and yet so warm and gentle I smiled the whole way through.”

Sleepless in Seattle has a 6.8 rating on IMDB.

The official Netflix site for the film is: https://www.netflix.com/title/973331  Below is a preview.

The Other Boleyn Girl – March 1

The Other Boleyn Girl is a 2008 historical romantic drama starring Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson and Eric Bana.  It is a fictionalized account of the lives of 16th-century aristocrats Mary Boleyn, one-time mistress of King Henry VIII, and her sister, Anne, who became the monarch’s ill-fated second wife.

The Other Boleyn Girl received mixed reviews. Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle said, “This in an enjoyable movie with an entertaining angle on a hard-to-resist period of history … Portman’s performance, which shows a range and depth unlike anything she’s done before, is the No. 1 element that tips The Other Boleyn Girl in the direction of a recommendation … [She] won’t get the credit she deserves for this, simply because the movie isn’t substantial enough to warrant proper attention.”

The Other Boleyn Girl has a 6.7 rating on IMDB.

The official Netflix site for the film is https://www.netflix.com/title/70083114  Below is a preview.
