[QUOTE=id05245;42700750]Can someone recommend a movie as good as Good Will Hunting?[/QUOTE] A Beautiful Mind Dead Poets Society If you want another smart guy movie.

Need a depressing movie with sad ending, something in lines of Requiem For A Dream, Boy In Striped Pajamas.

[QUOTE=Joppari;42702806]Need a depressing movie with sad ending, something in lines of Requiem For A Dream, Boy In Striped Pajamas.[/QUOTE] The Great Gatsby was pretty sad to me, quite tragic if you really think about it.

[QUOTE=Joppari;42702806]Need a depressing movie with sad ending, something in lines of Requiem For A Dream, Boy In Striped Pajamas.[/QUOTE] Grave of The Fireflies. I feel like that's cheating though.

The Green Mile

[QUOTE=Joppari;42702806]Need a depressing movie with sad ending, something in lines of Requiem For A Dream, Boy In Striped Pajamas.[/QUOTE] Das Boot. Bit of an oddball maybe but it's definitely depressing in that typical gritty way and has a downer ending ([sp]or maybe anti-climactic, at least[/sp]).

[QUOTE=PollytheParrot;42698547]You haven't seen Godfather??[/QUOTE] All 3, but like two years ago, so I should check them again

[QUOTE=id05245;42700750]Can someone recommend a movie as good as Good Will Hunting?[/QUOTE] rounders is up your alley, especially since it has damon in it

[QUOTE=-aTOMic-;42715051]Does anybody know similar films to Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead?[/QUOTE] The world's end

[QUOTE=Rofl_copter;42714319]rounders is up your alley, especially since it has damon in it[/QUOTE] Thank you. What's it about but without spoilers?

[QUOTE=id05245;42717877]Thank you.

However, during their crawl, they find their former childhood town to be something...different.

My mistake. I read the post above yours and didn't notice that you were talking about Rounders. Anyway, Rounders is about playing poker, but Matt Damon is something of a savant and comes up with a way to count cards, I think. It's been awhile since I've seen it. Pretty good, from what I remember.

That sounds amazing

[QUOTE=id05245;42723155]That sounds amazing[/QUOTE] ed norton/john malkovich are in it too

Any recent WW2 movies? Just watched Back to 1942 was okay.

Flags of Our Fathers Letters from Iwo Jima Saving Private Ryan The Miracle at St. Anna (haven't seen it, but it's out there) The Thin Red Line

I'm looking for a movie that's like Pi, but on Netflix.

Moonrise kingdom. Cast away is basically the same premise too

[QUOTE=Rofl_copter;42789256]Moonrise kingdom. Cast away is basically the same premise too[/QUOTE] I think he means, Pi, not Life of Pi.

[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;42793325]I think he means, Pi, not Life of Pi.[/QUOTE] Yep. I mean that pi.

I don't know if it's on Netflix, but Jacob's Ladder might be what you're looking for.

Is life of Pi worth watching?

[QUOTE=id05245;42816174]Is life of Pi worth watching?[/QUOTE] Yes.

[QUOTE=id05245;42816174]Is life of Pi worth watching?[/QUOTE] Personally I thought not, for me it was a lot of fuss about nothing but thats just an opinion. [editline]10th November 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;42798641]Looking for a feel-good dramedy kinda like "Sideways" or "Almost Famous".[/QUOTE] Ridley Scott's 'a good year'.

What are some good Hong Kong action movies? I've watched Hard Boiled, A Better Tomorrow, Infernal Affairs and its sequels, etc.

I want some good quality French cinema. I seen Rust and Bone recently as well as the 3 colours films and I want more.
