Movie Review - The Platform

I used to post threads of movie reviews here years ago but then I stopped, not sure why! The Platform: I caught it on NF. It is quite similar to Snowpiercer, except it is much more graphic and gory. Having said that, it is also much more clear about the ingrained message. I wont go into details but if you like movies with hidden symbolic messages and a bit ( a lot in some scenes) of gore, you might like it. If you have seen it, let me know what you thought! Hope we can revive people’s interest in sharing their opinions about movies. T8E

jjm86 said: There is a Platform 2 that is also good Ive been watching Mind Hunters on NF, thats worth a watch but its a series Click to expand... Yes, I just noticed it too. I will most certainly watch it. It is amazing how non-American movies are good, and even better in many cases in story telling and in terms of originality.

Current NF series is Legends. IMO top drawer, all aspects of it. And for a completely opposing view to the OP's movie selection, saw Sheep Detectives with my fav FWB, the one with the outstanding rack, and really enjoyed it. The movie and her. [:)]

jjm86 said: The non English movies are really good. Im a huge movie buff, did you watch The Great Flood? Its Korean Parasite is good but not sure if its on Netflix still Click to expand... Yes, I have seen quite a few Korean movies and I enjoyed them because of originality of the story as well the technical side of film making. I remember that I watched Parasite twice.

I liked it, a lot. The second one was good too, but I prefer the first one.

I watched The Hail Mary Project recently. Ryan Gosling is very good in this movie. 8.2 ranking on IMDB which is very good. JD

The novels in high school where the English teacher explains what is happening and the hidden meaning stuff in the book. Symbolism and the meaning of the symbolism... Why can't people just enjoy the book, instead of critizing the book and its deeper meanings. Its akin to all the Harry Potter movies and how people do "deep dives" and the hidden meaning behind why things went down the way they did in those movies. Just sit back and enjoy the movie, tell others your fav part, action or funny scene...
