It’s just slop par excellence. I’ve been watching a number of movies with my wife over Christmas. Everything is so bland, repetitive and ‘design by committee’. It goes further than merely announcing what the characters are doing (in that new wannabe Die Hard movie we hear that they are expecting a baby three times in 5 minutes), you just know there are certain metrics used for every genre of movie accounting for every minute: “if it’s an action film with no action scene in the first 10 minutes then the audience loses interest”. They are all so soulless.

And this is fine when you realise that Netflix replaces direct-to-video movies and not that of cinema, as much as they refuse to admit.

This.

Netflix does have good productions. But they are often surrounded by the sea of mediocracy.

Stopped subscribing to N over a year ago and haven't missed it a single bit.

Isn't it true for the whole film industry? Among the highest grossing movies from recent years, how many follow a different approach?
