Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

BAN...KAI
Well I as a Movie Reviewer have a very tight ranking methodology ...... but that has landed me in to "some" criticism so I am loosening a bit on other's ranking and hence my comment.else I do think few movies which are sincerely ranked 8+ (like City of God and Requiem for a Dream) can not be categorized/listed in the same league as avg movies like "cloverfield, ocean's series" etc .... Thats like Masterpieces vs Good/OK Movies, all having same 8-9 ranking ...
Well, I'm not A Reviewer...Though i do watch a lot of movies and have a good idea of how it is..And I somewhat agree with you about the rating...But then again it's just my opinion...And Barring some, like Cloverfield, other movies are Not much overrated...THe only reason cloverfield got 8/10 from me was because of the innovative cinematography...
And Ocean's Series was one awesome series...It was Very much entertaining and that's what a movie is all about...
Regarding the Matrix part..The first movie was awesome...but the other two not so much...LOTR was way better than the Matrix IMO(in both story and Acting)
BTW, I too watched "Phas Gaye Re Obama"..It's one of the Best Bollywood movies in years..Everything and Everyone was exactly where it should have been...Better than Bheja Fry(which itself was mind blowing)...Reminded me of the cult classic "Jane Bhi Do Yaron" which can be called as one of the best Indian Movies Ever...
Solely depends on whether you like Romance or Action.
And thats why Deja Vu blew my mind more. But Time Traveler's Wife was more harder to understand, which requires multiple viewing, and so took out the fun out of it.

Democracy is a myth
Witness for Prosecution 8/10
This is another courtroom drama movie. Has its share of twists and turns and they are gonna surprise you.
Though the ending is too dramatic to handle for such kinda movie.
Still, if u like courtroom drama category, it should be in your must watch list.
Till date I've seen two perfect movies in this category, "12 Angry Men" and "Anatomy of a murder"

No offence sam9s but sometimes you are way too critical in judging others tastes in movies...
btw, a few good men was(is?) a very good movie
None taken
^^mmmmm that might be true, ok admitted, but one thing you also cannot neglect is that if you do have a different taste, and are sharing/rating a known classic movie, instead of just labeling it as "crap", can be putted as ...... "well I dont know...........I did not like the movie at all, this is not my kinda of cinema and sorry to say it was poor for me" ........... you.....
and I guess others would agree, that this would be far better way to put forward a movie that is a known classic ..... that way you maintain the respect for the movie and put forward your opinion in a decent manner as well.........
Ok - may be I was a little bit too harsh while commenting about that movie.
BTW, Guys see these
Hard Boiled - 9/10
Ghost Ship 7/10
Once Upon a Time in The Wild West 9/10
High Noon 9/10

It's a prequel to the first Dead Space game.

^^ Many find the end very offbeat and a letdown but I kinda liked it. I also loved the background score, especially the one when their gang is traveling in the car.
Band Baaja Baarat - Lovely. Breath of fresh air. Nice soundtrack.
Love and other drugs - With Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway, I expected something more than average. But it was less than an average stuff.
Did anybody watch Monsters yet? Would like to read regular member's take on it.
