Green Book

Rating: M

Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer: 78%

The wrap up: This heart-warming film tells the true story of world-class black pianist, Dr. Don Shirley, who hires the tough-talking Italian-American Tony Lip as his chauffeur on a concert tour through the Deep South in the 1960’s. On their journey they are forced to set their differences aside to survive and turn to “The Green Book” to guide them to the few establishments that were seen as safe for African-Americans during this time. If the fact that this movie is an Oscar® winner for Best Motion Picture of the Year and Best Original Screenplay doesn’t sway you, nothing will!

Wine Country

Rating: M

Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 67%

Where to find it: Available to watch easily on Netflix*.

The wrap up: Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch – what’s not to love already? Join this group of longtime friends as they hit the road and relax in the Napa Valley for Rebecca’s 50th birthday celebrations. While all friends differ – a workaholic, post-op recovery, homebody, worn out mum – what they do have in common is the yearning to relax and reconnect over a glass (or more) of wine! But as drinks flow, real-world uncertainties bring the party crashing down, and the women begin questioning their friendships. This movie is the perfect weekend chick flick that has a hint of sweetness and a dash of acidity with a well-balanced finish.

Catch-22

Rating: CTC

Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 93%

Where to find it: All episodes now streaming on Stan*.

The wrap up: Based on Joseph Heller’s seminal novel of the same name, Catch-22 is the story of the incomparable, artful dodger, Yossarian, a US Air Force bombardier in World War II who is furious because thousands of people he has never met are trying to kill him. But his real problem is not the enemy, but rather his own army which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service. Yet if Yossarian makes any attempt to avoid his military assignments, he’ll be in violation of Catch-22, a hilariously sinister bureaucratic rule which specifies that a concern for one’s own safety in the face of dangers which are real and immediate is the process of a rational mind; a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, but a request to be removed from duty is evidence of sanity and therefore makes him ineligible to be relieved from duty.

    Can I use Chromecast to show fetch shows on my tv?

    • Leo Yarnold says:

      Hi Peta,

      It sounds like you’re trying to use your Chromecast as a wireless access point for Fetch. Sadly, this isn’t possible.

  2. liz says:

    what is the point of fetch if i can just stream Netflix and the like straight thru laptop and smart tv??

    • Leo Yarnold says:

      Hey Liz!

      Fetch is a fully-featured set top box solution, allowing a wide variety of both programming, channels and free to air solutions, so you have much more variety to choose from than a traditional streaming service. This means that you can switch between these sources as you want, as well as being able to access Netflix, Stan and YouTube from the one device, instead of multiple interfaces.

      – Leo

  3. Deb Upsall says:

    I notice you now offer Fetch TV in you new NBN bundles for free, just need to pay for the box. But your existing customers have to pay an extra $10 a month for the privilege. Customer loyalty obviously doesn’t really mean a great deal to you.

    • Josh McKenzie says:

      Hi Deb,

      Thanks for getting in touch! Our Fetch entertainment bundle contracting offer is definitely something that we can offer to our awesome current customers that wish to re-contract. If you’d like to shoot us an email with what time will typically be best to get in touch, we’d love to arrange one of our award-winning customer service representatives to give you a call and lend a hand.

    I requested Fetch with my iinet net account what I received was not Fetch at all but Fetch ‘mimi’. The Fetch box I received does not have a record function for TV channels like other providers and I was not advised that iinet charges an extra $399 for this function

    • Leo Yarnold says:

      Hey Kathy,

      We can help resolve this for you! Please don’t hesitate to get in touch via iiOnline@iinet.net.au with your details and mentioning your post. We can have this investigated, including pulling any calls if needed, to ensure that you were given the correct information.

  7. Jeff Crookes says:

    Just installed my Fetch box and trying to sort out what it really offers. It is supposed to offer a Youtube function, but comes up as unavailable.

    • Tal Waterhouse says:

      Hi Jeff,

      Sounds like the app may be having an error. Have you tried a hard reboot of the Set Top Box to make sure that it’s fully refreshed before trying to access it again? If you need further assistance, our support team on 13 22 58 are available any time to help out with this!

      – Tal

  8. Berk Foulds says:

    We purchased Fetch, it is a mini fetch, we though we would have access to 30 movies, free, a month. Our monthly subscription, though the one offered to us was $5 a month, I guess we need to upgrade our subscription to get that?

    • Josh McKenzie says:

      Hi Berk,

      Cheers for reaching out. The 30 pre-selected free movie rental titles should be available through the Fetch Movie box option under the ‘Movies’ Heading. The other available titles within the ‘Movie Store’ will incur a rental fee. If you’re having trouble locating the movie box section, please feel more than welcome to shoot us an email to iiOnline@iinet.net.au and we’ll be happy to arrange a call from our Fetch professions to help out.

      – Joshy
