România neîmblânzitã (2018)
Packs in lots of details about Romanian nature
A fantastic documentary film focusing on Romania - I had no idea it was so full of life and a huge diversity of creatures within! Everything is nicely punctuated with scenery of mountains, sunrises and sunsets, and sweeping drone shots that show you a Romania that you might not know. Truly lovely wildlife film. A great one to watch with the family on Amazon Prime!
John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)
Fun, riproaring and non-stop slick action
I'm so late to the 3rd instalment of John Wick but my goddness, is this an absolute indulgence for the eyes! The colouring in this film is completely sumptuous, perfectly bedazzling us with the non-stop action as John once more has to escape the clutches of high-flown power.
The film has lots of nice little in-jokes visually that refer to the previous two films which means you can easily give JW3 a re-watch to see if you can find these subtleties. Keanu and Halle are perfection, brilliant performers who have that fundamentally true star quality to make you believe the character, not do a double viewing of what you think the actor is trying to so, which is so prevalent in action films these days.
If you need a pick me up to get your adrenaline going on a Sunday night, definitely give this film a watch. It's better to have watched after 1 and 2, but you could easily watch this in isolation and enjoy it.
The Tigers of Scotland (2017)
Stunning film about the rarest cat in the world
Gorgeous scenery and breathtaking closeups of the rarest cat in the whole world, the Scottish Wildcat.
This film was made by Wild Films Ltd, it looks like they're an indie film natural history production company but this could have easily been a Discovery Channel show for sure. Beautiful film with amazing narration by Iain Glen.
The Tigers of Scotland film contains wonderful interviews with the conservation community and really important messages about the endangered species that is the Scottish Wildcat, as well as the work being done by the pro-wildcat community in Scotland to take care of them and help boost there numbers even though there are so very few left.
I caught this film on Amazon Prime, it was on Netlifx for some time as well, and I don't understand the negative reviews here as they don't seem to appreciate the artfulness or even the people who are giving their time to talk in the film, like not every documentary about animals has to have them mating or killing each other for it to be interesting... It's OK to learn from your wildlife documentary films once in a while!
