Movies on TV Thursday 12 March

Because we need them now, more than ever…

Oh, hi there.

With the country ready for a widespread shutdown in order to combat the spread of Covid-19, we could really use some home entertainment options.

That’s what we’re here for. Stay safe out there.

Here are the best movies on TV on Thursday 12 March…

Crocodile Dundee – Film 4 – 7.05pm

Paul Hogan in the only role you know him for.

Ocean’s Eleven – Comedy Central – 9pm

Cool movie stars milling about doing cool things with no real life-altering stakes in play? Yeah, we’ll take all of that you’ve got right about now.

Ride Along – ITV2 – 9pm

Action-comedy shenanigans with Ice Cube and Kevin Hart.

The Postman – TCM – 9pm

Kevin Costner mills about delivering mail and such to people in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Hopefully not a glimmer of things to come, but it’d be nice to meet Kevin Costner, all the same.

Heartbreak Ridge – ITV4 – 9pm

Clint Eastwood goes to war.

Babylon A.D. – Film 4 – 10.50pm

Vin Diesel is a mercenary on a mission in a dangerous futuristic world.

I won’t lie, this is not a good film. However, it’s the kind of cinematic junk food distraction we could probably all use right about now.

Lost & Found – Film 4 – 12.35am

Seven stories interconnect in the lost and found office of an Irish train station.

LISTEN: You Must Be Jokin’ with Aideen McQueen – Faith healers, Coolock craic and Gigging as Gaeilge
