Thanks for some great suggestions.👍🏻

[@justaguy6100]

As always you are the KING of the hidden gems. I haven't heard of most of these, at all. And honestly Power of the Dog, well, it's the definition of slow. It takes forever to get to the point. And it's a good point, to be sure, but you will suffer for a bit waiting.

[@Black_Blow_Fly]

I hate movies like The Occupant… it’s basically about a bad person that does bad things and suffers no consequences… and it was highly contrived, his ex-wife backed down at the end…. Just horrid. 🤢🤮🤮🤮

[@citizenx3801]

Another great list. 🔥🔥🔥

[@jayjimenez1817]

You have never steered me wrong...thanks for your recommendations! I tell everyone about flick connection!

KZbin is fantastic, because a guy like this gets a chance to build an audience and it's purely merit-based. There are no producers/editors deciding who is worthy of being a film critic. I hope he's well-compensated because these videos are great. It's the only KZbin channel that I actually turned on the notifications. Great job Darren.

[@switters8679]

In contrast, I cannot stand his slow cadence and the script being used repeats concepts one after another repeatedly. Why the fuck do I need to see you on the screen at all when we are talking about movies? I paused the video and individually looked up each movie on other channels so that I could actually get a clear and concise idea of whether I would be interested. Thumbs up for the pinned comment though, and since I did utilize the list I will also like the video. I won't be back though.

You need to do a video of your personal Top 20 (or 10, 15) favorite movies of all time. I understand your focused theme with this channel (which I enjoy), but it would be even more insightful to see your movie choices despite streaming services. Always love your streaming picks.

Thanks Darren for another awesome list! Lost bullet was thoroughly enjoyable! I really appreciate your foreign recommendations and that you bother to distinguish whether to go subbed or dubbed. That is truly going extra mile! I wish I had found you earlier but I'm subscribed now!😀🍿 curious though, how long does a movie play on netflix? and a series/TV shows? as you can tell I'm checking out your older lists 6months...1 year and some of your suggestions are still available! so grateful!😊

[@fitgearhunter]

Dude, you are just so good at knocking these overviews out of the park. It’s crazy how well you break down each movie and summarize it, and provide color and comparison to it all. Excellent work as always.

[@NicholasMcClure]

Disagree strongly about assessment of Gal Gadot in Red Notice - I actually thought this was some of her best work, she seemed to be having a ton of fun in the role, and it felt lighter and more charismatic to me than her typical Wonder Woman stuff.

[@endocrane8959]

yah man shes just nice to look at lmao

I watch all Gal's scene in slow-mo and sound off. 100x better

[@dilateyourmind8828]

As a police dispatcher/911 operator I must admit that The Guilty was one of the most unrealistic representations of my job. I am only speaking for the American version, I haven't seen the original.

[@rustyshackleford6035]

How so ?

[@dilateyourmind8828]

@@rustyshackleford6035 at the risk of giving a few spoilers, officers under investigation are suspended with or without pay until the investigation is complete. Not sent to dispatch. We don't transfer calls around on 911 to other calltakers/dispatchers. The amount of personal phone calls he took and made were unheard of. Hanging up on the overdose call would have gotten him a whole other investigation and probably fired. Where I worked (one of the largest in the country) light duty officers didn't take 911 calls, just non emergency. I get that they did what they did for the purpose of telling the story they wanted to tell, like any movie. I am sure most other jobs are misrepresented as well.

[@shawnbaker4554]

Thanks for weighing in, I get when reality needs to bent a little in movies for plot sake. But Hollywood and we the viewers in turn have gotten lazy. I enjoyed watching John wick, but the scene when they have a shootout in a crowded train station, and nobody notices because they have silencers? Utterly ridiculous. P.s. I could never do your job...ever. Good to know you’re there👍🏾

[@carissabain2416]

The original is fantastic! When you watch it you feel at first that you’re watching him for another mistake. Then you are drawn in to the point that you are tense and you are him. You from doubting his a good cop to believing he’s dedicated and fall right into his shoes as the call progresses! I haven’t seen the American version but as I have stated before the original is really good!

[@plfish77]

I couldn’t make it through Power of the Dog. Guess I should have stuck around for the end.

[@reeldeal3227]

Still not worth it. One plot twist that a passing knowledge of infectious diseases gives away. Unlikeable characters, manipulative content, promoted obsessively due to the "toxic male" messaging (which was much better depicted in American Beauty and elsewhere), and the low IMDb score for an "Oscar" film all speak volumes for why it was divisive at best...and yes, poorly paced too.

[@nodders6830]

One of the worst movies I've ever sat through , I watched it in four parts hoping it would get better . Nope .

[@talldave1000]

Great recommendations Darren. Thanks!

[@donnacrandall9065]

Thank you for all the great recommendations 😊

[@fredbloggs5902]

21:37 That’s a glider, probably a ‘Horsa’ troop transport (to be fair, it might be a ‘Waco’). (Definitely not a B-52 - a jet powered bomber from the 50s). But the film looks good regardless. I had an uncle injured at Arnhem, as far as I know the ‘Battle of the Scheldt’ has never been covered in a film before.

[@nandisaand5287]

Correct. Glider, not bomber. Definite must-watch if WWII flicks are your jam.

[@Titus_Vespasianus]

The bomber was probably a Lancaster...

[@57kevy33]

Airspeed Horsa glider and C47 tugs with a little Star trek magic we may see a B52

Great recommendations! I've watched about 1/2 of them over the past couple weeks. Red Dot on Netflix is also very good. Can't remember if you've covered it or not, but worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

Nearly all of them are on the Netflix Australia and I have seen about 5 so far. Thanks.

[@shiteetah]

In The Forgotten Battle (excellent movie BTW), it’s a British Horsa glider they’re in when they crash not a bomber. It matters because it’s another a bomber crew a portion of the film focuses on but British glider troops during Operation Market Garden.

[@joePARKS]

I always love your show - value your recommendations. they usually hit right on the spot for me. I watched The Occupant right after viewing this episode and to be honest i just didnt track with it overall. Yeah its full of messed up _ _ _ _, somewhat intriguing, but overall it didnt land. I'd give it a 6 at best. Anyway, I do love your show.

The B-52 wasn't developed in that until after World war II in the 1950s with jet engines. The b-24, the B-17, b-29 were World war II aircraft but not the B-52.

[@bobdelorenzo6715]

Not to mention the aircraft that crashed was a glider.

[@jvbeaskoetxea2582]

Nice to see that you watch some spanish movies. As you mentioned in the video, most of the films with either Javier Gutierrez or Mario Casas are pretty good and very recomendable. Black Crab though, I could not get into it, kind of a slow pace for that genre, I found myself wanting it to end rapidly. Swedish, make furniture and no movies please :-)

Received your #1 Newsletter and it was 👌👌👌 Many thanks for sharing your FLICK CONNECTION PRESENTATION. Catch you on your next review 👍👍👍

[@pamglastetter455]

The Guilty was good!

[@quentinmichel7581]

Wow. A B-52 crash during WW2. Who knew that Buffers could time travel? The first B-52's didn't become operational until 1955 - 10yrs AFTER WW2 ended. AND, B-52's are long-range Strategic Bombers and NOT a troop transport/cargo aircraft.

[@davidsolomon248]

I do like most of your recommendations. it is particularly useful when you mention the directors' other works as I get to look into those also. Example was "The Island" directed by Michael Bay. One of his other films came up in a list of yours, but you mentioned The Island which I ended up watching first and loved it! Keep up the good work.

[@justadudefrom97]

Till death is pretty good!

[@juleswinnfield8556]

Thinkin maybe someone needs to look up the actual meaning of the word propaganda.

[@Erin-Thor]

What propaganda? Let me guess, because it portrayed a somewhat wimpy slightly effeminate man, you assumed he was gay and it was a gay movie? 🤣 You missed the part where the weird kid man’s up and kills his tormentor in epic fashion. But dude, there was no propaganda in the movie, you were triggered because you are a homophobe. Too funny!

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

Loved Black Crab.

[@1rwjwith]

Just a couple comments…The Forgotten Battle is great, one of best recent WW2 films and about a part and area of the European war very seldom mentioned, The Scheldt Estuary battles in Holland and Belgium. ALIVE. Is again one of the superior Korean Zombie film they seem to be reinvigorating the genre! I believe there was a English language remake of this but I forget the title. Also their Zombie films could all be connected , TRAIN TO BUSAN, WE ARE ALL DEAD and ALIVE could be in the same outbreak! Thanks!

[@ileanahernandez1709]

Yes The Forgotten Battle really surprised me.

[@niallmcfall4922]

it was called 'alone' and it had not a patch on the korean version,such a great movie! i believe they are all connected through the same timeline.

[@iwanttobelieve5970]

Once again, I disagree with what you said about The Adam Project and Red Notice but I appreciate the list of movies I haven't seen.

[@wmichaelh29]

For me the most important character and greatest performance in The Power of the Dog was Greenwood's music. Overpowered any of the acting. And why wasn't Zoe Saldana mentioned as being a big name actor in the adam project?

[@Chiller01]

The Forgotten Battle: B52 crash? B52 first flew in 1952, a little after WW2. This was a wayward British glider landing behind enemy lines probably towed by a C47. No B52’s in sight.

[@nandisaand5287]

It was British, so more likely Lancaster, not C47.

[@Chiller01]

@@nandisaand5287 Actually a Short Sterling or Halifax would be more likely than a Lancaster if the tow planes were British. However the RAF acquired nearly 2000 C47’s under Lend Lease naming them Dakotas. They were used, among other things, to drop paratroopers and to tow gliders.

[@dylaneshom-arzadon8267]

Hey DVD, I'd love to see your take on a quintessential movie buff viewing list. I know that'd be a huge undertaking but a top 20 or so list could be cool for people trying to start knowing movies instead of just watching them.

[@jeeveseventynine9263]

Wow that is very difficult, I have tried this many times and 20 is just a very low number. I just went over at least 20 in my head while typing this.
