    Tired of looking for good movies to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other streaming services? Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.
    Thanks for watching!

      There was also a Black Dynamite animated series. Michael Jai White even reprises his role. If you liked the movie, you'll likely dig the show.

    Good list. Raw Deal and Splinter are two favorites of mine. Get The Gringo and Uncommon Valor I also like. I've had Attack The Block and Repo Men on my watch list for some time now, I'll eventually get around to it. Lastly, after your recommendations, Black Dynamite is one I'll have to add to my list, I really do love retro style movies.

    I’ve seen about half these movies (The Rundown, The Matador, Repo Men, Raw Deal, Allied, Open Range). There’s another few like Self/Less, In Time, and Attack the Block that I was interested in seeing back in theaters. The Frame and Tunnel are two I’d not heard of before.

    @michelefrost734 Год назад +4

    What a list! My first inclination is to rewatch Uncommon Valor, because obviously, but I'm going to branch out and watch Attack the Block because that looks amazing. Husband and i will probably watch Black Dynamite because holy crap that's awesome. I've always been shocked how poorly Allied did, i thought it was excellent, and I don't typically like WWII movies - The Call is another very underrated movie.

    I don't typically notice the audio engineering in movies so when I notice it's because it was particularly amazing. If you can watch Open Range with a good sound system you should. It is a classic western with a straight forward story and beautiful cinematography. When the gunplay begins it sounds very real.

    @rogerdaly6326 Год назад +1

    I still think The Rundown is my favorite movie with Dwayne Johnson. And the premise with The Matador is that Pierce Brosnan is an aging hitman who starts to have a crisis of conscious & wants to get out of the game and lead a normal life. He strikes up a friendship with Greg Kinnear to get an idea just what a normal life is like. It's got a lot of funny moments.

    with the majestic Galveston Mountain Range featured in the background...
    Notwithstanding the fact that Galveston Island is a large sandbar which is 0'-7' above sea level, including "mountain range" 😂🤣😂

      Asking for your opinion on From... I started watching based on the premise, but stopped after the opening scene where the characters were written to be idiots, both mother and child. I didn't want to watch yet another show that used stupid character decisions to make things happen simply because the plot called for it. Was my kneejerk reaction too much? Did the show rely on that quite a bit, or was that more of an isolated thing?
