| 2 | Roommates | Comedy | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | We were expecting this to be a silly movie and that was the case. The crazy interactions between the two roommates was annoying at times. The ending was a bit much. The way they tied up loose ends in the epilogue was trite. | |||
| 2 | Trevor Noah: Joy in The Trenches | Comedy | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | We tried to watch this new comedy special by Trevor Noah. He spent too much time talking about Trump and we zoned out. Didn't finish the special because the jokes were not connecting for us. | |||
| 2.5 | My Oxford Year | Teen drama, Comedy, Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | The movie was okay. We did not feel engaged with the characters. The story headed in a direction we weren't expecting. | |||
| 3.5 | Love on the Spectrum U.S.: Season 4 | Documentary, Reality-TV, Romance | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| Y | Season 4 featured some people from last season. It was nice to see Madison and Tyler doing well. Felt bad for a few people who did not have luck finding romance. The last episode had a party with a number of friends from earlier seasons. | |||
| 4.5 | Hail Mary Project | Sci-Fi, Adventure, Comedy | Theater | 2026/04 |
| Y | Loved the book and was interested to see how it got translated to the big screen. The special effects were amazing given no green screen was used. The first 15 minutes of the movie were disappointing for me. I think the book did a better job with the steps required to wake up from the coma. Felt the first few scenes in the movie were a bit disjointed, hard to follow if you had no read the book. There was definitely more humor in the movie, especially between the two main characters. Loved the interactions between Ryan Gosling and Rocky. | |||
| 2.5 | The Gray Man | Action, Mystery, Thriller | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | This movie felt similar to John Wick, where one person tries to fight his way through a myriad of trained killers. Ryan Gosling was fine as the main character. It was just mind-numbing to see how many scenes happened with the main character not being killed or seriously injured. His character did sustain some injuries but by the end of the movie I didn't really care anymore. | |||
| 2.5 | Big Mistakes | Comedy, Crime | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | We like Dan Levy and were hoping for a good comedy. The storyline was more over-the-top than expected. We were rolling our eyes and sighing with frustration at some of the scenes. Laurie Metcalf was a good surprise but her character was annoying at times. | |||
| 3 | The Lincoln Lawyer - season 4 | Crime, Drama, Legal | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| Y | The fourth season focused on Mickey dealing with the murder charge from the end of season three. It took a couple episodes for us to get back into the characters. We didn't enjoy this season as much as the first couple. Interesting cliffhanger at the end. | |||
| 3 | Mercy | Cyber Thriller, Mystery, Whodunnit | Amazon | 2026/03 |
| Y | Set in the near future, a detective accused of murdering his wife has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to an advanced AI judge. Some aspects of the movie reminded me of Minority Report. The movie takes place in "real time" with a countdown clock running the whole time. | |||
| 3 | Virgin River: season 7 | Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/03 |
| Y | Season 7 picked up right after season 6. We stuck with the show even though there continued to be dramatic twists and more drama than a little town should have. | |||
| 3 | Veronica Mars | Teen drama, Crime, Thriller | Netflix | 2026/03 |
| M | Creating a single entry for this TV show that started in 2004, ran for three seasons then had a fourth in 2019. The first two seasons took place in high school. It was early in Kristen Bell's career. The show was entertaining although often unbelievable. The third season took place in college and was not as good. The fourth season takes place years later but in the same location. Many of the original cast members make appearances throughout the 8 episodes. The story is more violent and grittier than the original three seasons. | |||
| 3.5 | Taylor Tomlinson: Prodigal Daughter | Comedy | Netflix | 2026/03 |
| Y | This special was filmed in a church during Taylor Tomlinson's most recent tour. She is funny but also says things that might make some people uncomfortable. | |||
| 3 | Famous Last Words: Eric Dane | Documentary | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| M | This is an intimate interview series where cultural icons reflect on their "recent" deaths in a private setting. The talks remain confidential and are released only after the participant's death, preserving their final words for the audience. | |||
| 3 | Breakdown: 1975 | Documentary | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| M | Watched this documentary by myself. Many of the news stories resonated for me since I was a teenager in high school around that time. | |||
| 2.5 | Missing the Boat | Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| Y | Two Hallmark movie on Netflix in one day. This one was a little more silly. Felt like we saw another movie recently where people missed getting back to the boat on time. | |||
| 3 | Because of Cupid | Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| Y | Lighthearted Hallmark movie on Netflix. Enjoyed the characters and rolled with the silly premise. | |||
| 3.5 | The Kissing Booth | Romance, Comedy, Teen Drama | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| Y | We were looking for something light to watch on Valentine's day. Had never seen this 2018 movie and the trailer looked okay. The movie reminded us of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" show. The age difference between some of the high school students seemed pretty extreme. It was a decent movie which spawned two sequels. | |||
| 3.5 | Spinal Tap II: The End Continues | Mockumentary, Comedy | HBO | 2026/02 |
| Y | The movie was better than I expected, given it was a sequel to a movie from 40 years ago. The main characters played well as aging rockers in the pretend band. There were a few cameos in the movie that were a pleasant surprise. The final concert scene in the movie was a bit much. Sad that this was Rob Reiner's last movie due to his tragic death in December 2025. | |||
| 3 | Jay Kelly | Comedy, Drama | Netflix | 2026/02 |
| M | Watched this after hearing about it on the Golden Globes. George Clooney seems to play a version of himself or similar Hollywood movie star. Adam Sandler was good as his manager. Some of the movie was interesting but there were a number of frustrating scenes too, hence the maybe recommendation. | |||
| 3 | Secret Mall Apartment | Documentary | Netflix | 2026/01 |
| Y | In 2003, eight Rhode Islander artists created a secret apartment in the Providence Place mall. We watched this documentary since we know the area. It was interesting to see what they did and why. | |||
