Brie Lawson was fantastic and deserved her Oscar win. When I was watching I didn’t even realize she won, and I said to myself “damn she should have won an Oscar for this” lol

this show here? I just watched the trailer, and it's now at the top of my list.

Holy shit.  That looks heavy, but SO good.

Looks like I've got something new to watch.

Haha damn, I thought I’d be ridiculed for just now getting around to watching that movie. Glad I posted that then.

I was thinking the same? How are people just now hearing of it? She won a fucking Oscar lol.

But yeah, everyone needs to be prepared to cry. Then get super pissed. Then probably cry some more.

having only watched the trailer and not heard much about it, is this based on a true story?

I've had Room on my watchlist for a while, just never got around to it.

 

I've been getting burnt by "Netflix Originals" lately. Miss after miss.

Watched Extinction last night. 2/10.

The story in room is not based on a true story, but the movie is from a book that took real stories of this happening and created a fictional story from it. So basically, it’s not from one particular story, but details of real life stories (like the one in Akron) all went into the making of this.

Considered watching this the other night, but looked at reviews and decided on Doctor Strange instead. Glad I did.

Cargo was a decent Netflix Original I've watched recently...especially if you're into zombie flicks.

As stated, no. Just based on real life captives being kept in cellars and dungeons etc. Then, the aftermath they go through when and if rescued.

I watched room last night. I thought the boy did a better job of acting than Brie Larson. (And he had to be good to make it work) The movie was definitely intense and dealt with some terrible issues about what life is like after. I want to say it was good, but I still have a terrible feeling left over from watching it. I can't imagine being a parent in that situation. (Either Brie's character or her character's parents)

Christopher Robin was very good. A little slow to start, but overall I really enjoyed it. 

Christopher Robin 9/10...not kidding. 

 

Anyone who ever read Winnie the Pooh books as a kid, liked the cartoons/movie/etc absolutely needs to see this movie. It was really, really good.
