Black Mass looks great, wouldn't be surprised to see oscars down the way. The Assassin's creed movie should be good too since it has the same names as Macbeth.

I'm also pretty excited for Spectre. Cleopatra [emoji813]
The reviews for Black Mass are of TDK-esque proportions so far, hopefully it lives up to the hype.

Im not really a gamer and haven't really liked game based movies like Resident Evil, Hitman etc, but Assassins Creed might be a game changer. Let's see.

Girl with the dragon tattoo

Well made movie
7.5/10
Couldn't understand some dialogs of daniel craig in the beginning. It was as if he was murmuring with himself.
 
Rudderless 8/10 very well directed and acted movies with amazing songs.Billy Crudup's second rockbandish kinda movie after Almost Famous.

(Spoiler Alert There is a twist in the second half.)

Use spoiler tag and write about the twist . :)
 
Indeed. Very well made movie.

Going to watch Good fellas today

Goodfellas is very similar to wolf of Wall Street but less funnier, basically similar narration, direction. I thought it was kind of slow and long for me, preferred wolf

Haha thanks mate. Fortunately i ended up watching inside man. 7.5/10 for this movie too. Denzel washington is just amazing in every movie he does.

In the opening and closing credits , the movie had the song chaiya chaiya from bollywood movie dil se. Came across as a surprise to me. At first i thought i downloaded a hindi dubbed version of the movie :yk

Two very different films though. Goodfellas is probably the most perfect a single film can get.
 
Elite Squad 1 and 2. On par with City of God and better than Carandiru. Crime, drugs, slums seem to be the main theme for Brazilian movies.

The Departed is my favorite Scorsese movie, I just found goodfellas plot too predictable.

The elevator scene in departed was amazing and so unexpected.
 
Katti Batti

Making someone watch this movie would be a better punishment than hanging.I wouldn't even advise my worst enemy to watch this movie.My advise for PPers is to not watch this movie and save your 2-3 hours unlike me.

Bad script endorsed by the bad acting of everyone in the film.

Legend. Terrible. 4 out of 10 for Emily Browning. Otherwise avoid.

Goodfellas is a classic! Of course it is similar direction as Wolf given it is the same director!!!!!
Goodfellas is a 10. Wolf probably a 8.

The Departed is a remake of a Hong Kong film. Goodfellas on the other hand is a real life account written by Pileggi. It may seem predictable but it isn't about the story but the style. It sets the standard.
Legend for instance tries to copy Goodfellas.....such as famous introductory tracking scenes.....a powerful soundtrack.....and first person narrative. However it fails miserably. We are still talking about Goodfellas to this day. Legend will be forgotten next month.

Good fellas was good but sometime I feel its tad overrated.Sure the acting was class(Joe pesci esp was amazing) but like someone above said the plot was really predictable and I was hoping for a bit more action.Most perfect movie ever made in my opinion is the pulp fiction.It had everything,the style,screenplay,acting.This movie never bores you pity same can't be said about good fellas.
 
I really can't see where Goodfellas gets boring. Nearly every scene is technically brilliant. Pulp Fiction is good but far too stylised for my liking.

Yeah. I still think Goodfellas is cinematic perfection. The best Gangster flick ever made if we're considering single films not trilogies.

I can't understand why the Krays get so much limelight, they weren't even the biggest gangsters in London at the time.

Tom Hardy has been a let down in Mad Max and Bronson so I don't expect any miracles from him in his double role.
 
Legend 7/10 I guess it was refreshing for a gangster movie and you'd expect that with it being a biopic on the Kray twins, it was decent but not compelling enough for me. The highlight of the movie were easily the superb performances by Tom Hardy as the Kray Twins, majority of the best bits surrounded the demented Ronald Kray; hilarious guy :))

Everest.

I thought it was brilliant.

Based on true events of course. Beautifully made film.

8/10
 
Good fellas

I dont know what others think but i never got bored watching the movie.

Great acting by matthew mccaunaghey and jared leto.
 
Fight Club

A nameless first person narrator Edward Norton attends support groups in attempt to subdue his emotional state and relieve his insomniac state. When he meets Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), another fake attendee of support groups, his life seems to become a little more bearable. However when he associates himself with Tyler (Brad Pitt) he is dragged into an underground fight club and soap making scheme. Together the two men spiral out of control and engage in competitive rivalry for love and power. When the narrator is exposed to the hidden agenda of Tyler's fight club, he must accept the awful truth that Tyler may not be who he says he is.


A gem of a movie !!!!

9.5 / 10

After seeing a lot of great movies i still maintain that this is among the top 3 best movies that i have ever seen.
 
I watched Ghunda after saw reviews on imbd. Now I realised these ratings are fake :no
 
Interstellar by Christopher Nolan. Very much enjoyed it, though fifteen minutes could have been cut out to make it more taut. Properly hard science fiction with lots of little nods to 2001: A Space Odyssey.

It was amazing in cinema and really feel films such as these were made purely for the big screen experience.

But I agree the film was a tad too long and got a bit sentimental at the end but overall very good film.
 
Marshland 8/10

Beautifully shot Spanish murder mystery. As usual, top notch performances from all involved.
 
Spy 7.5/10 for its humor ,pretty sarcastic and better than most spy movies as well.
 
Speaking of Goodfellas,I loved the scene in which Pesci shoots the guy multiple times who played Christopher moltisenti in the television series the sopranos.Classic.
 
The Visit

8/10

Awesome story and definitely one of the scariest movies I have seen as a grown adult. Excellent movie

Kangana is garbage and overated
 
Godfather part 1: 10/10

Masterpiece. Saw it for the first time and I try to avoid older movies. Music, acting, story was brilliant. Recommend it to anyone who's seen departed, goodfellas and liked it. This is the movie that spawned those modern era gangster flicks.

Going to watch the sequel, and judging from the reviews, looks like the best sequel ever made.

Many tend to rate the sequel more but for me none of the other two comes even close to the original.Pure class.
 
Child 44. Load of crap. Hardys film choices have been really bad. Heard he never reads the scrips beforehand. Maybe he should start doing so.

Duel - 1971 film by Spielberg

Just over an hour long but a good thriller..Highway motor stalking
 
Everest, breathtaking visuals and very engaging, even better that it's based on a true story.

I felt it was a let down. I was expecting a lot more breathtaking shots throughout the film rather than just two or three.
 
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.

Saw it rated highly in IMDb, but didn't enjoy it, mainly because of the genre. The movie was visually appealing. The rooms had nice interior decoration. And most of the scenes were shot in a single take. Whenever people were talking, the camera would turn around the speaker instead of the usual multiple takes/shot angles. So could appreciate the effort in the movie if not the story.
 
terminator genisys - 1/10, complete rubbish, took me 3 days to watch this as i just kept falling asleep

Chappie - very good, 8/10, didn't expect this to be good, took me ages to guess sharlto copley.

I saw the devil - this was great - 8.5/10 sick is some parts, but typical Asian psychopath acting really suits them. still think oldboy is better

It follows - 6.5/10, decent film i read imdb review at the bottom and thought - they gave it a rubbish review but stand people gave it a good review, decent film, but it has to basically rap* you to death and its really slow to get you.

Selfless- 7.5/10, very good film, kept me guessing throughout the film - best thing about the film is that it aint too slow.

The lazarus effect - 7/10- good concept, the only thing wrong with the film was it was too short, could have added another 20-30mins to it.

Tom Hardy has been a let down in Mad Max and Bronson so I don't expect any miracles from him in his double role.

I tried to watch the krays - very boring, half way through watch the rest another day
 
as above so below- 7.5/10, i really liked this, wasn't expecting to be this good as im not into adventure horror mystery films, Great story in this and some really scenes, it gets you into film - i started to cheer for some of them in it...lol sad
 
Just watched Everest over the weekend and it was a GREAT watch. very interesting and well shot.

Also watched Black Mass...but it didn't turn out to be as good as expected. Johnny Depp was good but the movie itself was slow as hell.
 
The visit

7/10

A brilliant first hour followed by a spectacular twist is marred a touch by an underwhelming final half hour.

I saw signs (pun unintended) of the M Night of The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable rather than After Earth and The Happening.

Good to see him concentrate on story and filmmaking rather than style and the twist which is shocking but effectively downplayed so as to not call attention to itself.
 
all these rave reviews of 'i saw the devil' mean i will have to watch it this week
