Looking for a monitor for movies

Looking for a budget monitor for max €150. Will connect to laptop and be mainly used for watching Netflix and playing poker online. Any recommendations?

Specs on this are good for the price. VA is the way to go for movies. £15 delivery to Ireland from there.

It is curved though so more suited to sitting near it. If you sit back for movies you probably want something flat.

You could consider a 1080p ultrawide if you can find one in budget. It matches the cinema screen ratio, so you have full screen movies without black bars top and bottom

looks good. build in speakers is a bonus which could come in handy. It is available on the irish site so may purchase there. Thanks for the help!

I'd recommend this 27inch. It's an IPS panel so will have good colours and blacks. Not ideal for gaming but a good looking screen.

There's also some for roughly 120eur if budget is paramount, but they will have questionable image quality.
