Can anybody say a few words about these movies: Glengarry Glen Ross, Serpico, The Blind Side, Trumbo and Bullets over Broadway ?

Thanks!

Serpico is awesome, Blind Side is good. Didn't see the others.

Thanks! I will probably watch Serpico tonight, I have the movie on my PC for almost 1 year.

'Following' lads?

Proceed! Following is visionary.
Have you seen Insomnia ? One of his best films easily.

I can't express it enough how much I love this movie. So dark and haunting. Fantastic performances from Al Pacino & Robin Willams(RIP).

I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

The Blind Side is a good ol' tearjerker.

Glengarry Ross has great ratings, Bullets over Broadway seems good as well.

Watched PTA's first film Hard Eight.
A good, enjoyable 3.5/5

Watched Triangle. It was great, although I have to admit to being mindraped and resorted to Youtube videos and some scary Excel spreadsheets (oh yeah...) to follow the whole loop, but I could definitely rewatch it a few times. Truly amazed on how deep the plot is.

Rewatched No Country for Old Men after like 5 years. A classic. The level of suspense in this movie is unmatched, and just hearing old Tommy Lee rambling is surprisingly soothing.

Yeah same here. After watching that same youtube video I realized what a complex and beautiful film it is. You don't really appreciate the depth because it's very difficult to deduce the whole story in one viewing. that Asian dude in the video must of watched it like 10 times Laughing

I have read so many theories on it that I didn't even think of. I really wonder if the makers actually planned on it or it was just a masterstroke.

by Sushi Master Sun Jul 31, 2016 4:20 pm

The thing is, the script is written and the movie shot in such a way, that it leaves several "solutions" available. All these theories might be all right, wrong, or many right at the same time. It's all open to interpretation and that's what makes it so good.

Independance Day resurgence- 1/10. Possibly the the worst movie of the year, and there's been some dreadful movies this year like Purge: election year and Batman vs Superman. Those movies are Godfather 1 and 2 compared to IDR.

Just watched I Saw The Devil. Feel like I need some therapy now.

by RealGunner Sun Jul 31, 2016 11:41 pm

that bad?

Not in a bad way. It was just so ultra violent and emotional. Koreans are crazy as f.

Unless you responded to Red hmm

Got around to watch Warcraft finally. Decent. Loved seeing all the iconic orcs except for Hellscream. SW was goat. The nostalgia hit me hard seeing it, seeing the gryphon flying through the classic hole in SW, Goldshire, Duskwood, Dun Morough, Karazhan, Blasted Lands etc ffs

The night elves looked pathetic and lack of Ironforge was sad.

The pace was insane ffs like abusing Walcott in fifa smh, not enough of WC/WOW soundtracks Sad

Not really a movie I would recommend for people that haven't played WC and WOW though.

by LeVersacci Mon Aug 01, 2016 12:01 am

That last duel rofl

classic 1 shotting with your cds and the people gathering to watch it Proud

That car scene. Proud

Top 5 movie when it comes to just annihilating your heart beat.

I had a Korean cinema phase. I must say, it's fantastic.

From the top of my head, I recommend Oldboy (it's a gritty-fun type of movie. Just weird but oh so amazing) and Memories of Murder (just gritty and emotional).

There weren't night elves from what I saw. Only high elves.

Ironforge with 30sec cameo.

Just finished watching Purge Election Year. what a terrible movie. 3/10. Laughing

Se7en (1995)

What a film. David Fincher :bow:

Masterful directing. Perfect cinematography. Guy is a genius filmmaker.

Fantastic acting by Freeman, Brad Pitt and specially Kevin Spacey. Saw the twist coming from a mile away though but I guess that wasn't really the point.

8.6/10

went through a similar phase a few years ago, already mentioned it at the time here I think but they make or made (been checking here and there and the releases seemed to have slowed) quality crime and thriller movies. Saw a bunch that were better than anything Hollywood has put out in the last 7 years. Still need to get around to watching The Man From Nowhere one of these days.

I Saw The Devil was cool, have you seen The Chaser, Freeza? like that slightly more

by Glory Tue Aug 02, 2016 4:08 am

Memories of Murder, anyone ? Proud

Korean films are epic in every sense of the word.
I Saw the devil, Chaser, Oldboy, Lady Vengeance. what magnificent pieces of films they are. :bow:

Those who havent experienced them yet are missing out on some of the most unique films ever made in cinema, I mean it honestly. Koreans are dope. Very Happy

by CBarca Tue Aug 02, 2016 5:15 pm

Finally got around to watching Bladerunner. Magnificent film. Really enjoyable and I can see where it gets its praise from. I don't know if I would hold it in the same regard as some others do, but it really is a quality film.

I will say this: I thought the ending was potentially one of the best I've ever seen
