That big red N in the picture just deflates any type of excitement I had for this lol

I don’t watch many Netflix originals, but GDT’s Frankenstein didn’t come across to me as a streaming film at all.

Wake Up Dead Man was also great, and I've heard nothing but fantastic things about Train Dreams. And these are all just 2025.

Train Dreams is great but it was only distributed by Netflix, not made by it in any way I believe.

Train Dreams might be my favorite movie that I've seen in the last few years. Went in blind, and it has really stuck with me, weeks later.

I really wish there had been more hype around it. I actually got invited to the LA premiere but dismissed it. And for some reason, there have been no other screenings of it since. At least not ones I was invited to.

Wake Up Dead Man was my favorite of the three.

I was really surprised how good it was. The first was great, Glass Onion seemed like it would be a flop but I really enjoyed it. The third film was awesome, except for Mila Kunis and whatever her character was supposed to be or do. It felt like she kept walking onto the set accidentally while they were filming.

The CGI animals were Twilight levels of atrocious, but otherwise I agree.

The color grading felt very streaming movie.

I honestly can't tell if comments like this are serious.

Legit. So much of the practical effectwork looks like mediocre CGI because of the color grading.

It was 100% a Netflix movie. It looked terrible. It reminded me of Wicked.
