Speaking of submarine movies, U-571 is probably one of the best I've seen, and especially so if you have a good surround system. Literally had my walls shaking in the depth charge scenes.

I realize it's been out a long time, but it's worth watching.

Yes, the sound effects are incredible
Another great old movie that has incredible surround effects is Mel Gibson’s ‘we were soldiers’

Not a movie but a national geography documentary Free Solo. Very motivating.

Having now finished True Detective Season 3, I have to say it was one of the best tv programs I've watched in a long time. Great story that unfolded slowly, but never felt like it was dragging. Terrific cast. Mahershala Ali was great, but I thought the real revelation was Stephen Dorff - he was just outstanding.

I need to finish TD3. I’ve only watched about half the season. I started too many shows at once.

I watched it. I thought it was good, but not great. I was expecting more given the director, who also directed Margin Call and All is Lost. That said, it was a decent heist/adventure movie with a good cast.

Pretty much my exact feelings as well. I had higher expectations. Cast was great, though.

I had to Google the movie AFTER I had watched it to figure out what I had just seen...

I think I liked it, not quite sure...

Burnout a French movie is real good. About the story of a fast rider.

We liked it, too. For sure, worth a watch.

I watched The Highwaymen on Netflix this weekend. It's a take on Bonnie and Clyde told from the perspective of the Texas Rangers who tracked them down and ultimately killed them. It was solid, if not spectacular. Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson are getting old.

Currently watching Formula 1: Drive to Survive on Netflix, it's very good if you're into Formula 1, which I am.

On Saturday night (forced by the wife) I endured a Dwayne Johnson double of Rampage followed by Skyscraper. Don't just don't.

I heard a lot about this one over the weekend. I think I have to check it out.
