The Movie House - Part 11

can't be worse than Dunkirk

Going on 31st to see

careful there with ratings. Both Inception and Interstellar have 70 somethings on Metacritic.

Nolan is the big name director that the culture has grown to love to hate because of his popularity.

really? awful

Calm down. I’m watching it this Thursday. Can’t wait tbh. The prologue was incredible

Cinemas still not open here, could open on September, huge bummer

Tf? Dunkirk if anything was one of his better films without the gimmicks. It was a brilliant and subtle retelling of a glorious victory in British history and without all the war film cliches.

Did what it needed to.

without gimmicks? what do you call the minimal dialogue and scrambled timeline narratives then lol

Dunkirk was his most gimmicky film by far. And it’s not a bad thing.

Call it what you will but that really was the only way of presenting a piece of history in the form Battle of Dunkirk anyway, if one wanted an overarching theme.


It was refreshing seeing it rather than another Saving Private Ryan attempt.


Tenet should be good just hope it doesn't suffer from over-familiarity.

Dunkirk felt like his high school project. Something Tarantino did with OUATIH but better.

Dunkirk was ok, ruined mostly by Zimmer's Batman score. I mean whose great idea was that?

Nolans best are

1. Interstellar
2. Batman Begins
3. Prestige, The

Never liked these experimental concepts of his, Memento or Inception, and Tenet will probably fall this category.

Top 3 Fincher chief?

Also always liked Alien 3 as it has better atmosphere than the first two Aliens.

2. Benjamin Button
3. Gone Girl

Surprised no one listed Fight Club.

Se7en definitely in there for me too.

Very versatile director.

Fight club is a poor film. Not even his top 5

2) Se7en
3) The girl with the dragon tattoo
4) The Social network

6. The Game
7. Panic Room/The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

Benjamin Button

Some slander on The Social Network here imo

Either his best or second best film for me. That thing is an absolute masterpiece. Comes up just short as my favorite film of the last decade

There has been multiple times where I've began watching it just to see that 5 minute intro conversation (amazing beginning to a film), and can't pull myself away for the whole film.

I saw a very disturbing film when I was a friend's house. It's called "Hentai Kamen", an incredbly awkward and disturbing parody of spiderman movies

Loved Tenet. It’s so fucking bonkers. Incredible spectacle.

Understand all the criticisms, but good god was it fun.

Also they really finally let Elizabeth Debicki be tall for an entire movie

can't wait

any post credit scene?

From reviews it seems the sequel is crap ffs

It was really bad. Some of the special effects were awful. Plus, so many cheesy scenes.
