Tired of looking for good movies to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other streaming services? Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.
Thanks for watching!

@@jakewarren74 I thought being the only tuber (I know of) who lists the movies in the top pinned comment was "chapters" enough for me. But if it makes the viewing experience easier then 'The Van Dam abides.'

@tjk3430 3 ай бұрын

Darren Sir, if I may be a greedy, ungrateful, & lazy internet consumer & throw a vote behind adding the year each film came out in parentheses next to the films in the TPC. When I listen to vids like yours & think about films in general, the year is a big part of how I catalog them in my head. I often find myself switching between your vid & the imdb app & it's somewhat distracting. Not a big deal to me either way as I said above listing them at all is amazingly convenient. I'm gonna watch your vids either way. If adding myself to the list of ppl asking for this (it could be a list of one!) helps with how you make UI decisions on your channel then I hope this positive feedback helps.

That was a great FLICK CONNECTION Darren. The ones I’ve rewatched happily have been:- Extraction, The Ritual, The Harder They Fall, Polar, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, The Night Comes For Us, The Killer and All Quiet on The Western Front. Many thanks for sharing with us. Appreciate it and enjoyed 👍👍👍

Totally agree on the movies I've seen, stoked to try out the few I haven't. I don't always agree but you've been pretty consistent for my tastes. Good job, mate. Keep 'em coming! Added note: It would be helpful if you made some note which movies are in non-English languages. It's not that I don't watch subbed/dubbed movies, but I really need to be in the mood. They just take a little more effort to watch and sometimes it bums me out when I get super relaxed and ready to veg out to a new movie only to find out I need to exert extra mental energy reading subs. And a low quality dub just ruins everything. Just a quick mention would do.

@klimtkahlo 3 ай бұрын

😊 I am the opposite, I search for non American movies. Being European from an eu country that does not dub anything makes it easier. In fact I refuse to watch anything that is dubbed, it is so extremely off putting to me… I recommend Scandinavian movies, they are so interesting and different… love them…anything British too!

@ileanahernandez1709 3 ай бұрын

I only speak two languages however I seek out many movies that are subbed because most of the time they are very well done.

Good list. I've seen many of them on your recommendation. Polar, Spectral and The Platform highlight my list. Just can't get there with you on Killer. Maybe I'll start it again with a fresh outlook. "All Quiet..." is a very good remake. The 1979 version starring Richard Thomas (Walton's "John Boy") is exceptional. Thanks!

another great set of recommendations! One of my favorite channels on KZfaq. I'll add that I'm a huge Coen Brothers fan, and to me The Ballad of Buster Scruggs was a Top 5 or even Top 3 Coen Bros. flick. Eminently re-watchable.

When he suggests a movie to watch that you haven’t seen, 99 times out of 100 he’s correct. You should watch it . Great work sir . Oh yeah, the night comes for us is incredibly violent and well choreographed.

The only scenes I loved as much was from John Wick 4, the eagle eye view fight in the apartment and the drug raid from True Detective Season 1. EDIT: Kostas Gavras is my uncle and Romain (his son, who directed Athena) is my (dah) second cousin, Im happy you included the movie on your list!

This is a really fantastic list of flicks, DVD! And, i have to say that Polar is my go-to rewatch. I think I watch it at least 4-5 times a year since it released. I will be first in line for the sequel if it does ever get made and released. And, of course, Mads is phenomenal in anything he does. And, to be honest, this was my first real intorduction to Vanessa Hudgens and I thought she really held her own next to the man, himself. 🙂
