so far I have seen, Still Life, and Testament of Youth.

I need something uplifting, but well made.

Hunt for the wilderpeople is supposed to be wonderful.

Copenhagen was good. A love story of sorts, but off beat. And Copenhagen looked amazing.

Fundamentals of Caring is properly heartwarming - and quirky. Netflix does good quirky.

Hunt for the wilderpeople is supposed to be wonderful.

Also good, watched it with my 9 yo and we both enjoyed it.

Thanks for more suggestions.
It is so hard to browse Netflix

I was coming on to suggest Hunt for the Wilderpeople too Grin

I really enjoyed Hunt for the Wilderpeople

We watched Theory of Everything last night, Eddie Redmayne is fantastic as Stephen Hawking, definitely an uplifting film.

Imfinehowareyou · 12/02/2017 09:45

Another vote for Hunt for the Wilderpeople!

Eddie the Eagle is very uplifting!

illegitimateMortificadospawn · 12/02/2017 11:12

Loved Eddie the Eagle but when I did some reading afterwards, there was a lot of editorialising in the film. Made Eddie look a bit of a chump, when he was actually way more switched on and strategic in his approach to the Olympics.

I quite enjoyed Interstellar and ExMachina.

Or try Kung Fury, it's really short, about a Kung Fu cop who goes back in time to kill Hitler. Good fun.

If you like wacky stuff try Rick and Morty.

zippey · 12/02/2017 11:18

And Pans Labyrinth, one of the best films of all time.

NormaSmuff · 12/02/2017 11:19

oh i noticed Exhachina.

Ex Machina was filmed in a Norwegian boutique hotel. After DH and I watched it, we wanted to visit - the views are stunning.

Sing Street. Definitely uplifting. Very funny and some great 80s references. 10 year old dd and I both loved it.

Wild is good, and Theory of Everything.

The Dish
King's Speech
I agree it's hard to search on Netflix, I wish they had a "films" section like Amazon

NapQueen · 13/02/2017 00:46

Is Arrival on Netflix yet?

peaceout · 13/02/2017 00:48

Limitless
also 'Lucy' was quite good fun to watch
