I thought it was a good film but I enjoy movies of a historical nature, among others.
Watched that one last night. Agree that it is a very good show.

The version I'm watching has sparse subtitles. I didn't know if it was a slow bandwidth feed or they just didn't do a good job. I've had that happen before on DramaFever but never on Netflix so I wasn't sure if it was my bandwidth or the subtitling.
Mine is working without a glitch. Maybe a problem with your bandwidth? Are you using the Netflix app in your TV, or do you use a box such as an Apple TV and so on? Whenever a Netflix show starts acting up I restart the Apple TV, and things return to normal.

Plays a much less likeable role in Frontier.
Yes, he is a very interesting and versatile actor, along with his other credentials as well. I just finished season 3 of Frontier and it was great to see him again.

There is another very good show at Netflix where you can see Jason Mamoa as the leading actor. "The Last Kingdom." I watched the three seasons already, and believe it ends there.

I had a lot of hope for a happy ending of another outstanding Korean show, and that was, "Mr. Sunshine." But the end was a lowdown for me because I don't enjoy unhappy endings. In a lot of Asian movies it seems that the characters are self-sacrificing by the end of the movie. But in "Mr. Sunshine" the cinematography and the acting, plus the love between the main characters are amazing.

The Koreans make better romance/drama shows than Hollywood. But for some reason, they make very few sci fi and spy stuff. Maybe the cost is too much? Too bad, because I like sci fi and spy stuff.

I am a huge fan of The Last Kingdom but I'm thinking Jason Momoa actually plays Kahl Drogo in the HBO series Game of Thrones which I admit I have not kept up with.

ETA, my motto is eat popcorn, watch movies and ignore the world. I can't take credit for that line I saw it on a T-shirt somewhere.

I just finished watching Dark Matter, which is a very good sci-fi series. Three seasons are available.
