But if something keeps getting awful reviews, like Capone, I don't bother. As far as IMDB goes, 7.00 is pretty much a par score for a decent movie IMO. I disagree completely. A 7.0 rated film, is typically a very good movie and one that is highly rated on IMBD. And I much prefer user reviews over pro reviews. I agree about Capone. Tom Hardy is outstanding. Even he could not save this absolute turkey. I think I rated it a 3.0 Edited June 16, 2020 by spidermike007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just finished watching it and enjoyed it ,but just realized as it was a true story they had to stick to the FACTS and could not make it into the usual PC story ,so no openly gay married couples ,no black men married to white women or visa versa , no trans people ,it must have broken the hearts of those in charge at the BBC .???? 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Murder in the car park' on Ch4 is looking good for the same reason; It's a true story of a murder in UK cira 1987 & the 15 mins or so that I have just watched has caught my interest sufficiently to watch the full monty later this evening (90 mins). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I thought it was pretty good as well. Would've been good if they said what happened to the two accused Russians and what action the (UK) took afterwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touch Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I'm looking for a Dutch TV series that's supposed to be very good. Klem (The Blood Pact) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5544138/ Three seasons have been shown on Channel Four and shouldn't be hard to find, but I've been looking on the usual suspects and have had no luck. Does anyone know where to find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneeyedJohn Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I just downloaded the Ch4 Murder in the outback torrent from Rarbg, it is like the TPB one a MKV file 1080p x265 and it won't play properly on any of my players. I tried d/l'ing the full K-Lite codec pack, same result. VLC, GoM and Windows media player. It stutters, freezes, horrible. Can anyone help me?

Has anyone seen Central Station recently? I think it was done in around 1998, but it is timeless, features the ever great Fernanda Montenegro, and a kid that was sensational. In addition it was directed by the wonderful Walter Salles. A lovely Brazilian film. Amazing characters. Great story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occasionally I get a file that works just fine on the computer but for some reason is not recognized by the TV. When that happens I use a free program called VidCoder https://vidcoder.net/ to convert the file so it plays on the TV. VidCoder is simple to use, you can just use it straight out of the box with default settings or play around with it a bit. I leave most of the settings alone except sometimes reduce the filesize to help save disk space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Daffy, but ur link and two others I tried from Tom's hardware( 5.14 ) and filehippo all had the same installation error, summat to do with entry point missing in a dll file. So now I am playing with demo version of movavi. I'll edit in my results. It seems the demo movavi was only for audio, not video, can't find a trial version of that. I did all that in VLC ivorbiggun and the video is still stuck/frozen, audio is fine. In GOM Player I getting the spinning wheel, and I am getting fed up.
