THE FIRST WAVE (2021): Follows front-line health care workers in the first days of the Covid pandemic in New York City. I'm glad someone documented this, but these are not times I am particularly nostalgic to relive. 3/5. Part of my project to watch every movie released by Neon.

Quote from: claws on June 01, 2026, 04:05:03 AMYouTube is now offering me movies free of charge. Not many, but a few. I tested Kill or Be Killed (1976) and the quality was "ok". Someone else uploaded Kill or Be Killed as well, and the quality is about the same. So, what's the point? Literally thanks for nothing YouTube.

A mentor and friend of mine directed that, South Africa's first martial arts film 😊🇿🇦🐢

not seen any of the TRANSFORMERS movies but I swear I saw a clip from one, and there's a transformer that talks in a yorkshire accent... experienced a very unusual cringe at that.

Quote from: Trevor on June 01, 2026, 03:35:07 AMI was born in what was then Rhodesia. That accent of Leo's is from elsewhere, not from present day Zimbabwe.

If you hear me speak you'll think I was from somewhere in England.

So, Leo was nominated for his role in Blood Diamond multiple times, including an Oscar-nomination. Mostly positive reviews by critics, lots of praise for DiCaprio. You obviously have seen the film. Do you dislike it because of the accent or did you still enjoy it?


The rest of the movie was good, the director Edward Zwick praised the South African crew and said "they will go far in this business". It was just that accent which threw me off as no one, from my era in my birth country at least, speaks the way Leo does.
