[QUOTE=cucumber;38946531]what?[/QUOTE]shame is a fucking masterpiece so I assume you're just too dumb to appreciate/understand it and dumb people like transformers cos they're dumb and shitty and just all about explosions and have zero subtlety which is like the opposite of shame
[QUOTE=cucumber;38946531]what?[/QUOTE]
that's what happens when you give a crap rating to a respectably ambitious flick with no comments.
it ws boering
its one of the most engaging films I've ever seen and the only film I've ever watched twice the same day after first watching it. brandon is a seriously amazing character and fassbender gives his best performance of his career so far and steve mcqueen is the single best new director of the 21st century.

But the sex was great
The Prestige 10/10 can't get enough of that fucking movie. It's just hands-down brilliant.
[QUOTE=usaokay;38946974]Total Recall (2012 remake) is really stupid if compared to the Arnold film. I like the robot designs though. The action scenes are great, but it seems there was a bigger focus on those than the characters.[/QUOTE]
Pretty much. I enjoyed it as an "average" action film, and it did have some cool ideas behind it. Freakin' loved the art direction and set design too.
Looper
8.5/10
Man I loved pretty much everything about this movie. The actors, the pacing and the action is all well made and for once even the kid actor did a "good" job. Definitely one of the best time travel movies I've seen.
[sp] The only think I didn't like about this movie was the TK thing, it felt way out of place. But it didn't kill the movie or anything.[/sp]
Shame. 8.5/10.
This is an amazing performance from Michael Fassbender and great directing by Steve McQueen. And, I just found Fassbender's character to be really fascinating.
I really need to see Hunger now.
Is it bad if I totally thought it was made by the actor for the longest time
I mean how many people have that name, come on

Yeah I actually thought it was the actor before, but then I realized he died in the 1980's.
[b]21 Jump Street[/b] - 8/10
second time watching, got some of the jokes I didn't before.
[b]The Dictator[/b] - 4/10
Actually had a little more "clever" humor than I expected, and I can't say I was serious through the entire thing, but still not a good movie by any means.
Shutter Island 9/10
Really enjoyed the way the movie plays with you.

I did that with Rango! That movie was tight as hell.
[b]Spit on your grave 3/10[/b]
Damn, the mother of my gf always promises us that she has the best movies. This one was so bad, it was not even funny. It's about a girl who gets raped by a gang of people and takes revengeance on them in the most gruesome way. There were to many bland characters with no developement, the actors played so badly. The only thing that was good was the soundtrack.
It reminded me to much of Saw, which is horrible.

all the movie was about weird immature guy who have premium membership on every porn site and bangs everyone he could and a girl who needs a place to stay(her excuse was, she couldn't see her brother again, if she founds a place to herself). Yeah, it was a fucking masterpiece just like twilight saga.
Just because my opinion isn't same with yours, doesn't means that im dumb. If it would mean like that, both of us would be dumb, because from my perspective you would be dumb, and from yours i would be.
it goes way fuckin deeper than that. you clearly didn't understand it.
brendan hates himself and he's like a husk, he's clearly got problems and probably went through something which made him like this, he's got a void he's trying to fill through sex. everything he does is symbolic both of him as a person and his inner cinflict/sadness, whether it be trying to fix it (his date with the black girl-where he's decided he's had enough of it all etc etc gone for someone smart and nice instead of some prostitute or easy one night stand but even then he can't really escape it (he takes her somewhere he saw people having sex for one) or on the falling into it part, the end is fucking surreal and so goddamn powerful. when he goes into the [sp]gay bar because he just fucking needs it[/sp] it goes throughout the whole film and that's the point. love as well how the end mimics the beginning and not only is that a nod to something familiar [sp]it shows (or more implies) he hasn't learnt a single fucking thing throughout this, he's had no journey, no epiphany, no realisations. fucking great. love a bleak ending lol. the film would have totally lost track were he to change his ways imo[/sp]
its also amazingly shot and amazingly acted, everyone clearly knew their characters well, esecially fassbender, as everything he does conveys him as a person, from bigger things to tiny things like how he looks at people, how he carries himself, his vacancy, great performance.

are you left-handed?
Cloud Atlas
5/10
Ripe with bad acting, bad dialogue, and even worse accents, Cloud Atlas just leaves you wondering 'why'. It cobbles together (very poorly) a string of inter-related stories (or so it would like you to think) from different timelines, that each on their own may have been an above average film, but together form a poorly constructed narrative mess that is neither visually pleasing nor emotionally satisfying. Basically it's just messy as hell, painting it's own, strange take on reality. It comes off as preachy as well as completely wanky.
And all the cutting around leaves you unable to form any attachments to any characters as it gives them no time to be fleshed out. It has a handful of cool scenes and interesting ideas. But the movie as a whole delivers them very awkwardly. At 3 hours long, it definitely feels it's length. And ultimately, it means nothing. Would not recommend.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;38955952]It kind of felt incoherent, like I was watching 6 movies at one time that were kinda-sorta-not-really connected.[/QUOTE]
isnt that the understatement of the year
the more i think about cloud atlas, the worse it gets

UUurgrghhh [sp]when they stick the hooks through the fabricants legs... Certainly sympathised with the rebels at that point; that meat factory scene was hard to watch.[/sp]
It was a convoluted mess of emotions resulting from trying to achieve too much in one movie.
It would have worked better if they established more connection between the stories other than 'they're the same soul, get it?'. If they'd just had a few less main characters and linked it together better it would have worked. I mean in one subplot you have Luisa Rey then you have the actor playing 'Indian Party Guest' in the next one for [i]no reason[/i]. If they're main characters they should be important throughout the entirety of it.
I really enjoyed the Timothy Cavendish plot however, despite (because of?) it having absolutely zero connection with the rest of the movie. But what [sp]Hugo Weaving cross dressing[/sp]? I get it, he's the bad guy in all of them, but eeeeeeeeehh. But honestly I feel cheated given the [sp]Robert Frobisher suicide playing through without him being saved[/sp], I think it would been better with the clichéd 'just in time' ending. It was Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet all over again.
The fabricant subplot could have made a fantastic true sci-fi film on its own, a social problem caused by the same thing that caused The Matrix to unfold: the requirement for cheap labour. A look at humanities advancement of technology while still requiring this void between equals. Which goes back to the slavery problem. If they'd done something like the slavery thing, then the nuclear thing, then the clones and then the search for the lost colonies it would have been great. Link the slavery and the fabricants, the nuclear power problem and have the colony at the end. Have the nuclear subplot fail, causing the events that force the need to relocate in the final act. Actually show the actions of the main characters reverberate through to the future instead of just throwing that line at people. Bookend the film with the Zachry monologue (but have Hanks speak fucking [i]English[/i]) and maintain the same small amount of actors throughout, hello what it could have been. I got that they were trying to do a 'Hanks goes from bad to good' thing over the whole movie, but character development didn't seem to be the driving force. And the diary was a massive red herring! Just ughhhhhh.

a big, incoherent mess. with their track record, i don't doubt it at all[/QUOTE]
It was exhausting to watch and now I have a headache, Rusty I believe you called it as soon as you saw the trailer, here's your $10.
classic wachowski film
The Road 9/10
The ending made me cry and i don't think I've watched something as good as that in a long time.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;38956464]In my opinion, they haven't made a good movie since "V For Vendetta".[/QUOTE]
Pretty much their only two good films have been V for Vendetta and the first Matrix.
Hobbit. 10/10
