I am currently housebound so spend a fair bit of time using Netflix, Sky Cinema etc.


Thought I'd better catch up and watched the original Trainspotting movie. What a depressing film, just can't see what all the fuss was/is about. How druggies get their kicks - well I knew that.


The good news is I found a film called Rustom. Really good so give it a try. Anyone seen it?

This isnt a Film, it is a Documentary into life in Scotland.

My mistake. Still bloody depressing though. d

Thanks Rob, I tend to go for the court room drama stuff. Sci-fi is not my scene. 12 Angry Men style or Brokovitch (spelling?) And of course the classics, Godfather and the Mafia ones. Car chases, violence and shaved fannies not for me. david

BUT - aren't they actors playing? That seems more akin to a film than a documentary? David

Can you recommend a decent build for this?

Every one I've tried just seems full of freezes and buffering.

the Jarvis build is the one I use and I installed the tvaddons and fusion repositories, I get zero buffering.
When u select what you want to watch and it loads the sources, gvideo is the most reliable, torba is useless.

Best bet for you would be to wipe it off and start fresh

Rustom, aint that an indian film.

David Lock

Set in India some years ago. With some Indian spoken so need to turn on sub-title button. But mostly English language with main character being white stiff upper lip type who is a Commander in Indian navy. David

I just watched Sicario and would recommend anyone into Action, crime, drama to see it.

Indeed, I think they're shyte - especially if you try to watch live sport

Yes I've seen it and quite enjoyed it. The fact that it's loosely based on a true story and its portrayal of Mumbai in the 50s/60s made it an interesting watch.

If you enjoyed Rustom try 'Airlift'. It has the same male lead and is 'based' on the true story of the biggest evacuation in history, ie of all the Indians living in Kuwait at the time of the Iraq invasion. All done in true Bollywood style of course

There are some decent documentaries on Netflix. Try 'The 13th' or 'Kids for cash'. Both are an eye opening and shocking take on the US prison and judiciary system.

Thanks Ding,


Will check out your suggestions

Also housebound for the next few weeks.

Been hitting Netflix too this week.
As has been mentioned - Sicario is good.
Also watched Eye in the Sky - quite a thoughtful film, people happily passing the buck.
