The Firefly series, followed by the Serenity movie. Space Western, FTW.

An American friend told me to watch it, so I did. Not bad at all if you are into that sort of thing.

I watched it on Netflix but apparently it is on the ABC (which I don't watch)

Glitch is good, watched it all a few weeks ago.
I binge watched it last week then found out it took them 3 years to produce 2 seasons and no idea if, or when, a season 3 will occur. So that's a bit disappointing.

I have been tossing up whether or not to watch Hostiles. If you say it is good I will give it a try.

Not amazing, but worth a watch. I saw Deathwish remake, Bruce Willis. Loved it!

Been looking at Death Wish too but it got a bad rap. I like Bruce though so will watch it anyway. I quite often don't agree with the reviews.

Speaking of reviews I don't agree with. The Lone Ranger got a terrible rap and consequently the second one got canned but I liked it. I thought it was funny.

It's a simple movie with plot holes you could drive a truck thru, but its fun. Bruce Willis as a mild mannered doctor turned executioner, what's not to like.

It's been panned by critics but loved by actually audiences.

The Martian is a enjoyable movie
Westworld tv series is good too but typical HBO, down and dirty type of thing. :thumb
