This actually looks pretty good. Looks like I’ll be signing up again for Apple+ in March for this in Ted Lasso.

A really captivating film that holds your attention for the entire two-hour runtime. Getting 'old' I must, since liking such 'boring' movies, and actually preferring them over something like Avatar 2, which I chose to watch later for this!
I never read anything about Tetris, so it all was new to me, and I don't know how much was changed, if anything, 'for dramatic purposes', but as a film it worked great!
There was hope after the fall of Soviet Union, and now 35 years later new KGB tyrant is doing the same - blacklisting, firing, banning, arresting and jailing and killing people for having a different opinion, or being against the war with Ukraine. All of that during my short 41 year lifetime as of now. When will it end?
