Like the title says looking to watch some good movies can be something newer or one of your old favorites.
Recently watched these:
The Old Guard, Shot Caller and Hereditary.
If you have some others let’s hear them.

If you liked Hereditary, you might like Midsommar, from the same director. It's another horror movie, less supernatural. Are you a Karl Urban fan? You should check out the version of Judge Dredd he stars in, much better than the horrible Stallone version.

Here are a couple In case you haven’t seen these yet that are recent:
1) A quiet place
2) Invisible Man
3) 1917
4) Uncut Gems
5) Edward Snowden

Those are the last movies I saw that have stuck out to me that I would recommend.

@Tdog13 I did like Hereditary stuck with me for days after watching it had some disturbing images. Did not see Midsommar but if done by the same director I’ll give it a shot thanks.
And did see the KU Judge Dredd that was good.

If you like documentaries; Cropsy and Killing Season were interesting.

Haven’t seen any recent movies. Looper ( Joseph Gordon Levitt / Bruce Willis) came up in conversation recently at work. I thought it was good.

@Murmonster Yes that’s the one. It was really interesting and provoked a lot of thought about information, technology and civil liberties.

Midsommar made me ill, because it was so good.
A movie is supposed to leave a lasting feeling/image.
Well.... it did it's duty. Highest recommendation.

Overlord was fabulous. And if you like the WW2 zombie vibe then Frankenstein's Army is a great one. No CG which is amazing.
Also Iron Sky is superb. Fanfic at its best.

Queens Gambit limited series on Netflix was one of my favorite recent watches. Caught my family watching Crazy Rich Asians for like the 8th time. That's a really fun movie.

Hey Murmonster,

Frankenstein's Army and Iron Sky are more "B" grade movies, but I generally like those better.

The director for Frankenstein's Army, Richard Raaphorst has a website with allot of incredible artwork from several of his projects. Well worth a browse thru...

Recently watched the sci-fi movie Prospect with Mandalorian actor Pedro Pascal. It has kind of a Mad Max low budget Indie feel to it. The acting, set design and costumes were great. I think it's on Amazon Prime.

If your going to watch Ford Vs Ferrari, watch the Carrol Shelby Documentary on Netflix first,,

Raised by Wolves on HBO Max is Interesting and ok

Agents of Shield (all the seasons 1-7) on Netflix

Clone Wars (all the seasons) on Disney +

Game of Thrones on HBO Max is good (Prepare for a lot of Nudity & Blood)

Watchmen (both seasons) is good HBO Max

The Old Guard

Mandalorian Disney +

@Tdog13 @Nuffsaid111 Watched Midsommar last night still taking it in mentally.
I now know that both Hereditary and this were by the same director can't say I liked one
more than the other as both had different effects on me.
I will say the director has put some disturbing stuff on film between the 2.
Oh and yes I did like it.

@Murmonster I agree. I really like movies that mess with your mind, make you think. There's also a place for pure escapism, but every so often, I need to see something "different." I also liked The Witch, but for some reason, only people who like non-traditional horror movies seem to like it. Do you like foreign films?

Ichi, the Killer (crazy Japanese movie, directed by Miike, who had a small cameo in the movie Hostel)
The Audition (Japanese,horror movie, non-supernatural)
Train to Busan (Korean, standard fare zombie-type movie, well-done)
Tampopo (Japanese, comedy, about food)

And many Kurosawa films, especially Yojimbo (westernized as A Fistful of Dollars) and The Seven Samurai (westernized as The Magnificent Seven). His works influenced Star Wars, which if you break it down, is nothing more than a Samurai western set in space

I would've passed on this show if not for your post. I watched the series in two days, enjoyed it, and am now planning on no longer being sober after 3 and a half years so I can reach my true chess potential.

@flanders Glad I could have such a positive influence on your life. Who knew that orphanages had their own pharmacies, eh?

@EbaySeller not that surprising. I read an article a few months ago about how a kid in juvenile hall was given estrogen against his will and without his parents consent, to help with anger issues, and started to grow tits. An orphanage with it's own pharmacy seems disturbingly realistic.
