3 Body Problem is good. There is an absolutely horrific event on one episode (Ep 5) though, which was a bit too much for me. Other than that it was an unusual story, not sure I've seen similar before.

Binge watched 3 Body Problem when it first came up. I imagine that there will be a second series.

Baby Reindeer was very good. So many layers. You constantly change how you feel about the characters

"Baby Reindeer was very good. So many layers." It really was....the first ep made you think you knew the direction it was going in and what kind of show it was, but it just didn't take you where you thought you were going. Excellent storytelling and the fact the actor in it actually lived through it in real life took it to a whole new level.

Watching the new season of The Circle. Myles reminds me of Larry David. Millennial Larry. ๐

Unfrosted was cute-ish. It seems to get polarizing reviews but in my opinion itโs at least as good as Barbie.

I won't say it's that good because Barbie had So much Heart and emotion. But this is a completely different kind of film -- just so silly and fun. I enjoyed it and laughed a lot. I'm surprised to see it getting bad reviews on rotten tomato. I got a kick out of it!

I laughed throughout Unfrosted but can understand why it's not getting the love it should. It's like a 90 minute sitcom. It reminded me of Don't Look Up in that there is so much understated humor that can easily be missed. So many people are on their phones or doing something else as they watch a movie on tv these days that a lot of the jokes would be easy to miss. I think being of a certain age also made it more funny for me as well. The excitement of eating a piece of cardboard covered with sugar cannot be explained to young people today, lol! All the actors did a great job and there were so many good moments like Hugh Grant's character accepting praise for his one man show "Twelve Angry Men". Having the 'furries' take over the Kellogg's building was hysterical on so many levels. I really enjoyed it and will probably watch it again for a good laugh.

I'm definitely going to watch it again. There are so many funny things you can miss in background alone. All in all, I really liked it. It was so much fun.

Lakecat, Unfrosted had some great moments but overall it could have been so much better. I kept thinking with all these comedians why dont they see some of this is falling flat! Barbie isn't in the same class as this movie. Barbie had a serious storyline behind the camp note: I am huge Barbie fan!

Agreed -- I don't think my kid would have gotten many of the jokes that are geared toward an older age group. It was good fun and I really enjoyed UnFrosted.

eta: I shouldnt have said Barbie had a 'serious' storyline. To me it resonated because how Ken is treated in the movie is how all of us girls treated him when we plyed barbies. Then the other storyline about them thinking they created a great world for women with the Barbie can be anything campaign just to find out there is still patriarchy.
