X & Y but more heartwarming

The Warrior

The Choir

Still Alice

Chef

Winter's bone

Real Steel

Happiness

And of course Eat, Pray Love.

Not really the type you asked for OP but am sure other Netflixers will be looking on here.

Great thread as I never know which to watch either.

I enjoyed Still Alice the other day.

Is 'Wolf of Wall Street' still on? That's great.

Begin again with Keira knightly is good if that's still on

Otherwise watch 'How to get away with murder' (series) that's fun!

Don't watch the ridiculous six. I love Adam sander but this one is bloody awful. Think jack and Jill level. I laughed once, at a minor character.

I'm not on Adam Sandler. I googled Ridiculous Six and doesn't get very good reviews.

Winter's bone is a good early film of Jennifer Lawrence.

I'm going to watch The Grand Budapest hotel this afternoon as off work. DS1 says it's great and it's on Netflix. But we have dvd anyway.

Queen of Versailles was the latest thing I watched. About a ridiculously, filthy rich family building the biggest house in America. Half-way through the doc the 2008 financial collapse happens and they lose loads.

Sorry meant to say it's a documentary.

Die Hard and Predator were added the other day - you can't beat a bit of John McTiernan for classic action.

Daredevil (the TV series) is great too, especially the acting (Vincent D'Onofrio from Full Metal Jacket's in it)

Guitarguy Vincent D'onofrio is one of my favourite actors massively underrated and hugely versatile, people don't believe he's the same guy when I tell em he's the guy in full metal jacket, 'thor' in adventures in babysitting and the alien in MIB.

What We Do in the Shadows is brilliant, funniest thing I've seen for ages!!

The documentary Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau is really worth a watch.
