The Movie House - Part 4

It's our duty as film fans tbh. Need films like this to be a success. Else we won't get more r-rated top budget films

It's rated 15 in UK

But yea we need to make sure this film makes a profit. A good profit.

22 Jump Street was rated age 7 in Denmark.

Still US financing the movies though

Edge of Tomorrow was a set-back for big budget non-sequel sci-fi last year. Only just broke even I think.

Edge of Tomorrow was such a goat film. Such a pity.

Bangladesh is weird. We got Age of Ultron before USA and now Mad Max is on "Coming Soon" for eternity.

Mad Max is here Gonna watch it on Sunday.

Don't call me James wrote:Yeah saw Take Shelter for Jessica Chastain. But mah man Michael Shannon stole that film. Should have been nominated for an Oscar.

Freeza wrote:I loved it so much. No idea how Shannon wasn't nominated for that performance.

In what world was Brad Pitt in Moneyball better than him?

Yea. Totally agree.
Cant believe he was overlooked for that performance.

Take Shelter's director Jeff Nichols is credited as one of the screenwriters for the upcoming Aquaman film on IMDb btw. Its rumored to be directed by James Wan according to that.  Hope he himself was the director.

Anyway a big fan of the dude. 2 films slated to release with him at the helm, Midnight special and Loving. So cant complain tbf.

The Aquaman script doesn't have a writer yet though, Wan and Nichols were both rumoured to be the director. And I think multiple writers have had to the their take on the character. Nothing set yet. Would love Nichols' take though. Can probably not use Shannon in it though. Watch him fight for a Zod flashback

Changed my friend's mind
Dat power of persuasion We're actually 3 now that are going in the first week of June

ffs

Ex Machina
Visually stunning. Crisp, shiny and delightful to the eye.
Acting good. Not as great as some have made it out to be in my opinion. Oscar Isaac just about the best of the lot, but the AI girl isn't that far off. Domhnall Gleeson was a bit disappointing, thought the film could've been far better if he was better.
And then the ending... Very generic I must say. I expected more.
So overall it's basically just tension building, human - AI interaction, with a bit of mystery here and there and twists that I could feel coming some way off.

I'm going to Mad Max agian.

i liked Mad Max, but it was overrated as hell. i had weird/mixed feelings throughout the film. the action scenes were so good yet so forgettable for some reason... a lot like the other 3 movies. same goes goes for the story, although you cant watch Mad Max expecting a great one

that main villain death was almost as bad as Bane in TDKR

and although I really liked Tom Hardy (he had such a Mel  Gibson's Max vibe), it has to be said it didn't even look like he was the main character.

overall nothing but a good popcorn movie. 7.5/10

LMFAOOOOO James ffs +10^e34

Says almost nothing positive about the movie. Gives it a great score.

that's correct. to make you guys even more mad i'll change the score to 6.5

i forgot to point out how stupid the addition of the old ladies to the action scenes was

Same with you and Interstellar

I said it was very hard to rate because it was an experience of a movie and because of so many flaws but yeah.

Ex Machina anyone? Thoughts?

Loved all of it. My biggest problem is this though... I can't find a thing wrong with Oscar Isaac in any performance, that guy is a special talent. Alicia Vilander also gonna be great, biggest Scandinavian newcomer at the moment. Alex Garland is A brilliant writer

I don't see how Gleeson was disappointing and the ending was generic. Gleeson did great, he pulled of the naive, gullible character perfectly. As for the ending,
