Netflix

Thought we could post up good movies that are lurking around the questionably searchable depths of Netflix. The suggested movies usually suck, but I know there are decent ones out there.

If you like westerns, Blackthorne is a late sequel to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and damn good production in my opinion.


Poolhall Junkies is a great film too.

Good idea for a thread. "Hell on Wheels" is a series I found recently. I liked it a lot. American Horror Story was ok too, really strange but watchable.

Are we talking about "Streaming" or renting from Netflix. I hate that you can't stream all the movies netflix has to offer. I have an xbox360 I basically only use for netflix now since I rarely play video games, so I only use it to stream movies.

 

[MtnT4R]

yeah streaming. I dont have cable to my tv, just the 360 like you. They have a ton of good documentaries, but the good movies are hard to find. I just thought of two more:

Into the White- about two downed warplanes over Norway during WWII
Undisputed III- great prison fight movie

 

[downpour11]

Love the documentaries on there.

Ones that come to mind right now are:

The North Korea documentary (forget what its called)
Kumari (hiarious, guy fakes being a Guru... it's a "WTF" documentary)
Restrepo
Severe Clear
any of the War Journalist/Photographer documentaries

I second this one. I enjoyed it. Could have fast forwarded through some of the middle but overall I liked it.

I watched "Tomorrow, When the War Began." It is like an AUS version of Red Dawn. It was a decent streaming movie.

Into the Wild is a 2007 American biographical drama survival film written and directed by Sean Penn. It is an adaptation of the 1996 non-fiction book of the same name by Jon Krakauer based on the travels of Christopher McCandless across North America and his life spent in the Alaskan wilderness in the early 1990s.

My Way ... its a korean movie but its good as hell

 

[28.]

Believe it or not the new Judge Dredd is decent.. :target:

Also..
Longmire is a great show.
Hell on wheels starts out great then goes ito a steady decline after season 2.. Now it's meh..

 

[hearno]

Yeah, I liked the new dredd also. The guy's voice got annoying tho.

 

[ddnww]

"El Infierno" is a good movie.

"touching the void" is one of my favorite true story documentaries of survival.

"American me" one of my favorite all time movies.

Side Effects was pretty good and was just added.

Here's a good website to explore what's available on Netflix streaming: instantwatcher.com - Streaming Movies and TV to watch instantly on Netflix

And if you haven't watched the Top Gear episodes that are on there, you need to get on that!

If you're into music there is a documentary by Dave Grohl called Sound City that is really good. It covers the life of a legendary recording studio.

 

[UnderFire]

I enjoyed the documentaries about graffiti.

Infamy
Bomb it
Vigilante Vigilante
Exit through the gift shop

I also liked these.

Just for kicks
If a tree falls... Story of the earth liberation front
Fat, sick and nearly dead

Great thread! Is Into The White all subtitles? I think I started it the other night, but was in the mood to watch not read. Ended up watching The Way Back. Pretty good story.

Mystery Science Theater 3000. One of my old favorite shows of all time. They have 5 or 6 movies on netflix streaming. My faves are The Final Sacrifice, Soultaker, This Island Earth. I laugh my ass off to these.

"I'm glad I don't have any friends or else I wouldn't be able to do THIS." :lmao:
