What Is On Netflix

I’ve got a love/hate relationship with Netflix. While I’m overjoyed that Netflix allows me to stream movies when I want and provides me with great entertainment for the weekend, I become frustrated for various reasons. The first is that when there is a movie I want to watch, sometimes isn’t available in my region on Netflix… though I have heard of whoer vpn which you can use to access region-locked content.

My second and definitely bigger problem is that often I can’t figure out what kind of movie I want to watch to begin with. The scrolling capabilities can only take you so far! I often end up searching online for the best movies for me to watch in the genres I like. Thankfully, there are a lot of online resources that can help me. This recent Newcasinosites.me.uk study reveals the best 21 gambling movies out there which is a great help considering Netflix is pretty useless. Plus, Casino Royale is one of my favorite films so I’ll watch anything that’s alike! However, although super helpful, it is slightly inconvenient to have to leave Netflix to search elsewhere for movies. So Netflix, you don’t have to expand your library – I can see that you’re being generous already, but please, won’t you please, let us see what is in you a little bit more?

I ran into this exact problem last night. Sometimes, I just want to give up, but luckily today I discovered “What is on Netflix?” I see that other people were having the same problem as me. With this website updated weekly, you can see the top-rated movies from both IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes that are streamable on Netflix. I’ve discovered that there are numerous websites, such as Flixboss, that help us in discovering the genre of movies or series that we want to watch over a specific time period. In these situations, the filtering feature comes in handy.

It’s all we ever wanted. Netflix, take note. Are you seeing this?

Inception

I really love what I do. Tonight my work allowed me the opportunity to see the advanced screening of the new film “Inception,” due out this Friday, July 16th.

I don’t want to give too much away about the film because you will enjoy it so much more if you know less. In fact, Leonardo DiCapario said in an interview not too long ago that he liked that there was so much mystery surrounding the trailer and what the movie was about because it added more suspense.

The cast was amazing. Leonardo, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Ken Watanabe, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, and Marion Cotillard blew me away. Some movies rely on an all-star cast to generate more buzz, but most of the time it isn’t accounted for. In fact, many are left feeling unsatisfied. With Inception, you won’t be. Every person has served their purpose. No one impressed me more than Miss Ellen Page. Even though she broke out of her Juno character with Whip It, she truly showed her wide range of acting abilities in this movie.

The film was beautiful, thrilling, and daring. It will keep you on the edge of your seat for all two and a half hours, but you’ll love every minute of it. Christopher Nolan did an incredible job with it all and you might even catch a few similarities from The Dark Knight as well. It’s funny how the movie is about dreams and imagination because you will  find yourself being pulled deeper and deeper into it and it is such an overwhelming feeling how attached you will be to this film in the end. What is real and what isn’t? This film will push you to think. It is complex and built upon layers, but it isn’t a chaotic mess. Just follow along and if you get a little lost along the way, maybe your imagination will put you back on the right track.

The reviews are coming out as we speak. The tough critics over at Rotten Tomatoes have already given it a 96% which is pretty damn good! For reference Toy Story 3 received a 99% and Eclipse got 54%

I also received some incredible responses from our viewers tonight:

“I can’t wait to go to sleep now!”

“…One of the best movies I’ve seen in two years.”

“Exceptional – best one I’ve seen all year.”

“I trust Nolan more than any other director.”

I highly recommend seeing this movie. I might even see it a second time. Let me know what you think!
