What was the last film you watched?

[marlonbrowndo]

The next film I watch will be The Last Samurai.

Good movie but you should probably watch seven samurai instead which is a classic

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Just came back after watching my most awaited movie in recent times. Silence. Martin Scorsese is my favourite director of all time and while this may not be my favourite Scorsese movie, it is probably his most flawless and powerful. Amazing movie. Official release was in 2016 and it is probably the best movie of the year just edging past la la land for me. Scorsese never does anything wrong and Andrew Garfield continues to impress. It had some very disturbing scenes and was often difficult to watch. There was a lot of realistic gore and torture sequences. Great movie though and everyone should watch it. Some may not like it because of the highly controversial subject matter.

Saw a few movies while in flight-

Captain America: Civil War
7/10
Easy to follow, likable and ultimately the stakes were simply not high enough. Also, Spidey was bloody annoying.

The Shallows
7.5/10
Terrific performance by Blake Lively and good direction elevate a mundane plot. I liked how the shark was showed very little at the start. Made it more terrifying.

The Magnificent Seven (2016)
7/10
Good remake (of a remake!) with excellent performances by Chris Pratt and Haley Bennett. Denzel does good but he only gets to act towards the end. I liked the Wild West portrayal and the low-key humor. Seemed like a classic western and that is never a bad thing in my book.

Misconduct
3.5/10
How bad do you have to be to make a movie starring Al Pacino and Sir Anthony Hopkins suck? Apparently very bad. Oh and Alice Eve gave one of the worst performances I have ever seen in a moderately budgeted movie. There is emotionally distant, there is wooden and there is whatever the hell Alice Eve was going for in this one. Completely obliterated the last twist which was a lame twist as it is due to her lame acting.

Green Room
8/10
One of the best thrillers out there. Patrick Stewart as a polite but ruthless Neo Nazi has to be seen to be believed. THE PROFESSOR HAS GONE OFF THE DEEP END PEOPLE!

 

[Anchorman]

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind - 8/10 decent rom com with a very creative structure and premise

I remember watching this movie in my teens. To this day, its one of the most intriguing premises of a movie I've ever seen.

Been nearly a decade since I watched it and I still often wonder what it would be like to erase the memory of one person from your life.

 

[Anchorman]

Ah yes , Requiem for a dream. Its a cult movie.

But i think its just one of his good works. Have you watched Dallas buyer's club?? Jared and matthew mcconaughey have killed it. I think its jared's best work.

His joker is fine imo. The problem was that the movie wasn't about him.

Anyone who think Leto is not an exceptional actor needs to be shown Dallas Buyer's club. McConaghuey was exceptional as well. That scene when he's in the car alone shook me to my core.

Bethlehem...

Israeli flick about a Shin Bet handler and his Palestinian collaborator...one of the better presentations of the Israel/Palestinian conflict out there....

Come to think of it...the Palestinians and Israelis tend to make better stuff regarding their situations...I saw 'An Honourable Woman' not long ago and thought it was awful...every Israeli and Arab was essentially a caricature...

It depends doesn't it, if there was someone you loved so dearly and it was never going to work out or they ended up throwing you off the Cell bah gawwd then maybe long term it would be worth it because you'd be able to move forward with no knowledge of the burial, you wouldn't lose your smile you'd remain the main-event! the showstoppa! the stylin profilin Anchorman! and breaker of hearts!

Some defeats are just hard to recover from so I guess it can be a benefit but at the same time you'd be losing all the good moments associated with the person in question, everything got a price! money! money! money!!! lol not sure how the million dollar man analogy works here

Decent movie though, what are the best rom coms you have ever seen bud?

I agree that it's a massive trade-off, and that's what makes the story so interesting. I still believe the movie could have been a lot better though as it had one of the best premises of all time like we discussed.

I'll have to think about that. Rom-coms are one of my favorite genres so here goes.

500 Days of Summer
The Spectacular Now
Safety Not Guaranteed (Very interesting premise, low budget but hits just the right notes, along with having one of my favorite endings of all time)
Ruby Sparks
Silver Linings Playbook (not the best, but I still remember it, so it must have had some good parts. All I remember right now is Jennifer Lawrence's sporting yoga pants through out which was worth it)
Knocked Up
Crazy Stupid Love

There are probably tens more but these are the ones I can think of right now. What If (The F word) was another good one and if you enjoyed that then you will enjoy Sleeping with Other People and Man up as well.

Talking about purely romantic movies, nothing comes close to Linklater's Before series. Nothing.

 

[shaykh]

Check out Omar..Palestanian movie

Downloaded it actually...heard good things...will let you know what I think...another one I had recommended to me was Ajami...

I agree felt the same way, was left wanting more perhaps the finishing stretch could have been better.

Ooooh I likey, a few on that list which I've not seen. Will give Safety a watch, yes! I watched that a few weeks ago! The F word, it really surprised me; wasn't expecting it to be all that but I loved the quirky feel to it. Midnight in Paris is another decent one you should check out!

His Spider-Man days are long gone. He's an amazing actor. Scorsese is never wrong about who chooses as his lead

6.5/10

An okay sci-fi movie. Had some twists which i didnt see coming. Overall a decent watch.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

[MENTION=130419]shah_1[/MENTION] also at this point Scorsese just doesnt give a damn about the box office or what people think. He knows that he is the greatest director of all time and he is gonna make what he likes no matter how controversial or offensive it may be to some.

Remarkable triology a movie a decade,Ethan Hawke is really underestimate but that's his own fault.

Tom Cruise is like that to, phenomenal actor who rather star in C level comedies and action flicks when his range is a lot more versatile then that. He's basically Hollywood's SRK in a way when you look at how he started his career and after that it was more about the money rather then making a good movie which allowed the likes of Leonardo to surpass him, I guess you can't blame him for that but I expected more from him in the 2000's and besides The Last Samurai and Collateral he has not really indulged in genre's beyond comedy/action

Yes ,some people prefer fame over stardom Ethan Hawke is on the other end of the spectrum from Tom, there needs to be a balance and I think someone like Matt Damon,Tom Hanks have understood that better than most.

the raid redemption

7/10

a few policemen raid a gangster's building but get trapped inside, mainly because they were led to underestimate him by the one leading them. The whole movie is about how they try to find their way out while an entire army of goons tries to hunt them.

amazing movie for action lovers. liked it very much.

[shaykh]

Watched Omar tonight...very good movie...shown from the Palestinian perspective...and essentially shows all sides are human with good and bad...unlike Bethlehem which focused more on the handler/collaborator relationship...Omar is a lot more about just Omar and has an important love story intertwined with the plot...definitely worth a watch...

Its the second movie ive watched on collaborators in the last week and its certainly a very interesting subject...collaboration is often coerced...i mean what kind of choice is a lifetime in jail vs coercion...i find honour is a wonderful principle until effects you or the ones your love...but at the same time youre always owned...

For a real life example I recommend seeing 'The Green Prince'...its a bizarre documentary on a Hamas leaders son who becomes an informant for the Shin Bet...but unlike the examples we see in these fictional accounts...he actually turns collaborator due to his dislike for Hamas...worth watching cos hes just a difficult guy to understand considering the lengths he goes to...

SPOILERS...

Amjad is appalling all round...although as a plot point I find it odd that he would use the fake pregnancy...I see how it gets Omar off Nadias case but it also nearly got him killed...seemed the worst lie to tell...

 

[marlonbrowndo]

no i havent. but i will because i liked this one very much. thanks for mentioning it to me.

Part 2 is good but it will disappoint you after the thrill ride that was the first one

 

[SandyB]

City of god is an amazing movie. One of the best foreign films of all time.

Absolutely incredible movie !! One of the best crime movies of all time.

Has some really disturbing/heart wrenching scenes. But captures the growth of crime in Brazil's "favelas" magnificently . Fantastic acting especially by the child actors. The fast paced narration and visuals with good doses of dark humour make it such a treat to watch.

 

[SandyB]

Just saw XXX : Return of Xander cage today morning in IMAX 3D..

Basically the Fast 5 formula (wafer thin plot + mindless action+ crazy stunts + exotic locales+multi racial cast) applied on the XXX franchise (Not very successfully though..!)

Big bald rebel guy gets hired by US intelligence - Assembles team of talented rookies - travels the world to cause mayhem everywhere - and kicks the villain's ***.. .

Vin Diesel plays a less grumpy, more talkative dominic torreto who tries too hard to be a 'murican James Bond (the Roger Moore variety to be more exact) .
He clearly doesn't have the physicality/action chops to pull off the stunts (too old maybe). A fact that is exacerbated by having guys like Donnie Yen & Tony Jaa killing it in their scenes.

Donnie Yen : He's THE best character in the movie.. Great charisma , amazing in action. Should've been given a meatier role.

Tony Jaa : Wasted in a silly small role.. Maybe his lack of command over English & moderate acting skills keep the producers from giving him more than 5 lines to speak in EVERY film !

The other women are more or less eye candy (except for the obligatory LGBT character of no real significance ! ) but XXX needs to learn from Bond to pull off objectification & misogyny .. The attempts in this movie fall flat.

Looking at the desi angle..
Deepika is absolutely SMASHING !!!.. Looks prettier, sexier and more ethereal than even in her queen roles in Bollywood. Has a stunning screen presence and does stunts with surprising competence . Her height gives her tremendous poise in the action sequences. If she plays her cards well, we are looking at the first genuine Desi superstar in Hollywood (she can overtake Priyanka for sure). What I liked most was that she speaks in her natural English accent (very south Indian but polished). Nothing like the half baked accent Priyanka has.

Other positives: Ice cube & Neymar Jr have cameos, both are fun. Samuel L. Jackson plays basically Nick fury without the eye patch. He basically has saved these roles on a template somewhere. .

Bottomline : Lead actor disappoints the most . Action & stunts are good. Plot is super thin and makes very little sense. A fast & furious that tries to revive a rather dull franchise by trying too many things.. Maybe a Rock or Jason Statham would've done the "Kickass Bald guy" role much better in this one. The support cast & cameos rescue this from being a complete dud !

5/10.

PS: This movie in 3D is an absolute waste of money . No noticeable 3D effects or visuals. Just another money grab attempt.

True, it's a bit like comedies as well; not all of them are decent but they give you a laugh. With action movies I never have high expectations either although when it comes the good ones such as mad max and John Wick I'd be expecting more from the sequels though. Plus it's not like movie of the year quality stuff is released every month, so when you go to the theatre you just watch whatever seems fairly ok

Sometimes it's just better to sit back and relax instead of sitting in the theatre with a pen and paper have to admit that when I watched Man of Steel got annoyed though because it had so much hype but never delivered imo

MAD MAX in 3D was AWESOME man totally surprised me as i didn't expect anything,it was genuine move theater experience for me even better than Avatar (imo).

But yeah defn it won't have a sequel the way things are going.

I love fun movies Fast series ,Transformers even Bad Moms was fun man! Only recently I have stopped going to theater for fun movies due to our new crappy GOI censoring movies and what not

It totally blew me away as well, I had read the positive reviews as well something which I normally don't do as I just like to enjoy the movie and judge for myself but despite the positive reviews I just didn't expect how unique it was. The sequel is planned it will be called "Mad Max: The Wasteland", the production team and distributors didn't expect it to do as well as it did at the box office, miller already has a vision for two more stories to tell.

That's a shame, I guess you can always watch them in other ways. I haven't seen Bad Moms am checking to see if I have it on Amazon Prime with the fast series I kind of just stopped watching them around four or five because I couldn't keep up with their releases

lmao that's what me house mates do, joey's use my prime account; think it's bloody charity week! to be fair am only using it as I've taken advantage of the student offer. Same here mate! am so hyped for spidey, I feel it will be the best incarnation since the early 2000's. Sony have given creative control to Marvel as well and they tend to handle their characters quiet well, and you know how am a big DC fan but man Spidey has always been my favourite Marvel character and only 2nd to Bats when it comes to my fandom of high profile comic book characters. I've also read that they are taking inspiration from the Spiderman Blue comic, which is pretty cool; I haven't finished it yet but am half way through it; perhaps I should stop so I don't pick up on the little things when I watch the movie, for some movies the element of surprise is worth it although my code has always been thou shall always read ze book first!

I just read the premise for fleabag ) defo my kinda show

 

[shaz619]

It won't be like the fantastic short film made by shankar which SABAN got really worked up over but the incarnation does feel a little darker then what you'd traditionally expect with the rangers. In the end it will be a standard action movie, I will probably go see it being a huge fan of the rangers growing up.

Were you a fan of MMPR, Time Force etc ? the original MMPR movie was decent for me being a fan of the series and it did well at the box office despite the mixed reviews. This should a decent action movie and a lot more easier to put up with as a chill movie to see at the theatre when you feel like watching something given the premise even for non-ranger fans

You're on the right track my friend but there is much better stuff out there. Watch Goodfellas and thank me later

Why would you wanna watch this man. I remember watching XXX 2 in the cinema and that was an awful experience

Didn't expect a great movie at any point .. Always knew what kind of movie this would be .A fun action movie like the 1st transformers or BadBoy's 2 maybe .. (Michael Bay Fan here )

Had a lot of expectation from the main cast dude..Donnie Yen & Tony jaa.. Asian action stars still don't get due recognition in HW even though they ACTUALLY DO THEIR OWN ACTION ! They get these measly parts...

Deepika was great too .. Absolutely loved her !..

I hate Vin though .. THE MOST OVERRATED action star in Hollywood.. Cant ACT ! Cant even throw a decent punch !.. Rock with his WWE background and Statham with his martial arts training do a way better job.. For all the hate he gets Tom Cruise is still the most genuine action star (non-martial arts ) in hollywood..

Vaastav is very underrated here.One of the finest gangster movies to come out of the subcontinent along with Satya.

Scarface isn't as good as any of these movies. This is coming from a guy whose seen it 4 times

 

[James]

Scarface has some great scenes but they are sporadic. The film is lazily edited and far too long.

The others in the genre may have been well made in comparison but Scarface is more enjoyable

 

[shaz619]

In preparation for Trump inauguration :-

Red Dawn 5/10
White House Down 7/10
Olympus Has Fallen 7/10
Salt 8/10

You need to watch Idiocracy bud !

Well said. It is really overrated. I still really like it but it's just not as entertaining as some of the other great gangster movies

 

[KingKhanWC]

The Good, the bad and the ugly. 10/10. Greatest western ever made.

Al Pacino made Scarface, any other actor it would have been a forgotten film.

A Bronx tale & Donnie Brasco are other decent watches.
