Haven't received one of these in a while, these are just movies and not television series, in Casey Kasem order:
10. 23 BLAST--2014 sports tearjerker inspired by the story of Travis Freeman, a teenager who continues to play football despite losing his sight--Stephen Lang and soap actress Kim Zimmer are the only names I immediately recognize in the film--36% on Rotten Tomatoes. 9. THE SUPER MARIO BROS. MOVIE--The hit Illumination animated treatment of the video game stars has been in the worldwide Top 10 (Netflix shares the Pay One window with Peacock) almost every week since it dropped on the service and I assume that some time before the end of the year Netflix will have to give it back to Peacock. 8. TROLLS BAND TOGETHER--Also with a Pay One window share with Peacock, the third animated film in the DreamWorks franchise is the one where NSYNC vocally reunites (Justin Timberlake has been one of the star voices from the beginning, I assume the Barden Bellas will reunite with Anna Kendrick's character in the next one). 7. THE EMOJI MOVIE--The 2017 animated bomb where Sir Patrick Stewart is the voice of Poop. 6% RT, 13% MetaCritic, still over $200M at the box office. 6. LOGAN LUCKY--One of Stephen Soderbergh's many "I'm just making this for funsies" fims, this 2017 heist pic features Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Daniel Craig, Riley Keough before "Daisy Jones and the Six," Hilary Swank, Katie Holmes, etc. 92% RT, 78% Meta. 5. UNTOLD: THE MURDER OF AIR MCNAIR--We don't know why this under-an-hour episode of the Netflix sports doc series is being called a movie, but it's about the death of the NFL QB. 4. THE UNION--The first real feature-length Netflix original in the 10, it's the spy thriller with Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry. Typical Netflix original critical reaction of 38% from RT, 44% from Meta. 3. MIGRATION--Another Illumination animated hit from the Universal animated Pay One window with Peacock, unlike her current film in the theaters "Between the Temples," Carol Kane is not playing a MILF in this one (or more specifically, a "MJasonSchwartzmanLF"). 2. UNTOLD: SIGN STEALER--Well at least at 87 minutes this one's feature length and about the University of Michigan's football team's attempt to steal the opposition's signals for their advantage. And the number one movie on Netflix this week: 1. INCOMING--You know, we haven't had a good old-fashioned Horny Teenager movie in a while, so here's a Netflix original about a bunch of freshmen at their first party. 25% on RT, 38% on Meta, but were you really expecting raves on this one? Until next time, keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for your toes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
