Sméagol Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 I just watched this clip from The Dark Knight.. It's been a while, but was surprised it aged so badly.

MindFreak Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Wow, Anna & The Apocalypse looks ... just like Shaun of the Dead. Which is one of my absolute favourite comedies out there. I shall totally watch this one. And perhaps SotD again. 1

Saw it yesterday and loved it. It's got a mixture of everything. The last 15 minutes or so were magical and a great way to close the film. 1
bob Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Yep. Saw it last night and thought it was fantastic. Was a bit skeptical about it before it started because of all the issues it has during development, but it was generally great.I do with they could have spent more time on the other members of the band though. The parts about Mercury were good, and the actor who played him was amazing, but the best parts were the little moments and banter between the other three guys. 1
Sméagol Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) This is one film I saw some time ago at a Japanese film festival, and I highly recommend it if you get the chance to watch it. It's still doing the rounds at festivals, so that may be difficult. One cut of the dead It's a about a filmmaker who's making a no-budget horror film but done in one cut. However.. Things go wrong. First you get to see the actual result, then you see what leads up to it. It's necessary for the film to have it done this way. It's absolutely hilarious, and very, very clever. A great "meta" comedy. @drahkon, something for you too? I don't know if you're into comedies. It's not meta in the story sense, but meta in the editing sense. Also great for people into film making. Edit: spoiler alert: it's a serious candidate for film of the year for me. Edited November 2, 2018 by Sméagol

The first part is more of a "so bad, it's funny" no-budget horror style. Even if you still don't like it, it's definitely worth sitting through that just for the payoff in the 2nd part. Edit: I forgot to mention, but this is still sitting at 100% fresh at rotten tomatoes. Edited November 2, 2018 by Sméagol 1

Beast Posted November 16, 2018 Posted November 16, 2018 Same. I want to see that. Hoping it's English subbed/dubbed. When is it out?Just watched Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. Absolutely LOVED it! It's got mixed reviews and I understand why but I adored it. It had the charm of Fantastic Beasts and added more to the Harry Potter world too.Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk 1
LazyBoy Posted November 17, 2018 Posted November 17, 2018 Just got out of an old 60s movie called The Chase - Robert Redford, Marlon Brando, Jane Fonda. Was great, like a solid 4/5. More about moral decay than about the 'man on the run' situation the movie sets up at the beginnning. Would never have watched it either if they weren't showing it on the big screen, so there's that great feeling of stumbling across something special. And my word Brando could act. Upstages everyone else on screen regardless of whether he's got lines or not. Need to see more of his. Any recommendations? 1
Sméagol Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 @LazyBoy, sorry, I don't see that many "old" films. In fact this may be sacrilege, but I don't think I've seen any of his films. If you want more Jane Fonda to drool over however, I can heartily recommend Barbarella. I'm actually really curious to see what they've done with it. Business-wise I think it's genius.
LazyBoy Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Saw Widows last night, and I can say with certainty that I will be recommending this to everyone. Not a perfect movie, but there is so much good stuff in there. Viola Davies is a titan of an performer, even putting Liam Neeson in the shade. But the standout aspect is McQueen's direction. For a heist movie there is not one moment of generic or rote film making. Everything is purposly built, and then beautifully shot. It's an exceptionally well put together movie, to the extent that I can out of the cinema thinking - 'give this guy a Bond movie'. It's not perfect. Like everything made these days it needs 10 minutes off the running time, and there's maybe 1 or 2 too many characters. But please go see it, not many movies like this out there. 1
drahkon Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Watched Game Night just now. One of the best comedies I've seen in ages. No childish sex-jokes, no unnecessary profanities or annoying side characters. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously; it's simply a fun ride with a surprisingly good story. The acting was spot on, as well. And the soundtrack was incredible, weirdly enough. Would recommend for an enjoyable 100 minutes of black comedy.
