Hey Mumsnetters & Netflixers
Can anyone recommend something uplifting? A film would be good.
I'm feeling very down after receiving some shit news & i've got half a bottle of Aldi wine and a pizza. What fits the bill? 🤔

Bad moms if it’s still on there. Always makes me laugh.

Birdbox is strangely uplifting, despite much grimness.

Seconding Shitz creek, it really cheers me up when I'm feeling low.

Wine country.
Dumpling is shite!

Wine country is good. Swimming with men also good! Mum on iPlayer is fab (but about death and grief, although very gentle and funny).

Sorry for your bad news!

Jane Eyre (Michael Fassbender is fabulous as Mr Rochester).

Leap year - bit corny but watchable

'About time' on Netflix is lovely! I stumbled across it and watched it on a whim. It's such a lovely story

Whisky2014 · 29/06/2019 22:19

Wine country deffo fits the bill.

Also as a series I liked..i think it was called working mums

If you can get your hands on 'the intouchables' it is a fabulous film, it is so good and has great music too.

Hunt for the wilderpeople is funny too as recommended above.

I thought Murder Mystery was brutal.

Stranger things

Always be my maybe - such a feel good film.

The Good Place, I binge watched all of the episodes in a few days.

This gets my vote too. Very well written and the cast are excellent.

I watched this the other day, it was really good.

I also loved Wonder but there are a couple of quite sad bits in it so maybe not the best option.

It was lovely. I’m not usually a fan of Nighy, but he was quite endearing.

Also, Isn’t it romantic is really funny.

Oh @Yabbers I loved About Time . A really gentle film .
