  Deepwater Horizon 2016

  ★★★½ Watched 09 Mar 2025

  Capitalist greed making bad decisions again.

  Should have watched it in 4K. The Netflix HD version is badly compressed.

  Beckham 2023

  ★★★★★ Watched 05 Mar 2025

  If like me, your team is Man Utd, and you grew up during this era this is a fantastic documentary.

  Some of the footage they've managed to obtain from behind the scenes is remarkable. This intertwined with great interviewees and great pacing of storytelling, leads to a great documentary.

  Once you've finished this go straight to the Messi Meets America documentary on Apple TV+. It flows straight into each other.

  P.S. I was 14 watching him play in the Youth Cup Final in '92. Crazy to think that this was the Class of '92 I was witnessing.

  Prince Valiant 1997

  ★★ Rewatched 10 Sep 2017

  I first saw this in the cinema 20 years ago. It was OK in '97.
  It doesn't age well.
  Best bit of the film was my dad as Sherif Rollins, promoting a proper north Walian accent.
