Palatkik Posted April 10, 2020 Report Share Posted April 10, 2020 Save Me Too [2020 TV series] Excellent 2nd Sky TV series to the original Save Me from 2018 about a father searching for his daughter lost to a child trafficking gang. The ending is more convincing than the first series and still leaves scope for more to come or maybe not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted April 10, 2020 Report Share Posted April 10, 2020 Ordinary Love [2019] I might normally skip a movie with a title like this but this is quality Irish drama about an elderly married couple coming to terms with the wife's cancer, shows humor and emotions without the schmaltzy melodramatics more commonly dredged up from other movie studios.

Palatkik Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 Dragged Across Concrete [2019] Strangely compelling bent copper movie despite its overly long length, follows the decent into blood and gore of two cops suspended from service who look for a retirement nest egg from a bank robbery that they try to hijack.

Palatkik Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 The Kindergarten Teacher [2018] Remake of a 2014 Israeli film, the acting makes this slightly creepy story a winner when a teacher goes beyond acceptable limits to develop a five year old poet prodigy.

Palatkik Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Wendy [2020] From the same director as the excellent Beasts Of The Southern Wild, this re-imagination of Peter Pan acted by kids but for an adult audience is set on some remote island. It gets plaudits for visual and character portrayal but the story is all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palatkik Posted April 19, 2020 Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 Military Wives [2020] Billed as from the director of The Full Monty, this is not quite as memorable a comedy drama based on a true story of an British army bases wive's singing club that falls into the too formulaic and sentimental category but will appeal to it mass target audience.
