it may not sound too interesting but it is a fascinating watch with great performances by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

thriller/survival movie.
on Netflix Australia.
about two climbers who decide to climb a 2000ft tall decommissioned antennae and basically the poop hits the proverbial fan...
movie scared the crap out of me as i am terrified of heights, so a nightmare of epic proportions for me.

as an unrelated footnote i watched a doco many moons ago about the guys who climb these things to change the light globes in them, not sure if they are simply crazy or have the biggest balls on the planet but at USD $20K pay for each tower they climb i guess it doesnt matter.

on Netflix:
typical "one man takes on an entire army and defeats them" type of movies...
first one was pretty good and believable for the most part but the second one was so far from reality it was laughable (but still fun)
half decent action movies if you want something to pass a bit of time without being intellectual.
Extraction - 3.5/5
Extraction 2 - 2.5/5

The Deepest Breath is a 2023 documentary film directed and written by Laura McGann that profiles Italian freediver Alessia Zecchini on her quest to break a world record with the help of safety diver Stephen Keenan.
IMO, these guys (and gals) are nuts!

Watched this last night - it was pretty entertaining, not to mention enlightening! About the recording of "We are the World". How they ever got it right is a miracle!! On Netflix. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Greatest_Night_in_Pop
