Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

[Gen.Libeb]

Just watched "The Conjuring" - 6.5/10
I can't help it but compare it with "Insidious" & "Sinister" . For me, among the three the first 50 minutes of Insidious were much scarier / better than The Conjuring, but I didn't liked the 2nd half of Insidious. Overall Sinister was the better movie imo.

^^ There's two version of Sinister
Sinister (2012) - IMDb
And
Sinister (Video 2011) - IMDb

which one you're talking about ?

BTW, Saw Purge - movie is good. [ 6.5 / 10 ]

Deleted some posts - No actor comparison here - next time infraction / ban waiting for those who are going to start and continue such act.

Same sentiment. Sinister was the best among 3 with a twist ending. And it was scarier in the sense that the movie is seen from the point of view of one protagonist , so u feel more alone and scared psychologically as opposed to full family being present in conjuring and insidious. Also the latter 2 movies had a prdictable ending.

Did you really need to do that?

This is a 'must watch...' thread and the verdict of 'must watch...' is defined depending on different parameters of a movie by different people. Actors are also part of the parameters.
Comparisons are bound to happen...we have had them in past.

Yes, not everyone would like to take part but few interested parties would always be there.

I sincerely hope you would reconsider your mandate.

No offence, sometimes you mods remind me of some 'pretentious' over disciplined kids back in the school, just saying. A little bit of off topic(yet related to the same topic) conversations aren't going to completely destroy this thread, right?

Refer to the FAQ section in IMDB page ... I think the answer is there probably .

No offence but the comparison was long off-topic chat happening in this thread for a while..so a separate dedicated thread is recommend for it.

a little bit of OT is digestible but a long OT spreading in between pages is not

Prestige : 8.5/10.. Wonderful acting by Hugh Jackman..gr8 plot
Departed : 8/10.. Never Expected the Twists in the end..
Public Enemies : 6.5/10..

People do happen to use this thread for movie recommendations and off topic discussions make it more laborious to separate wheat from chaff.

The mods have done a good job here because they waited for quite sometime patiently for self regulation and stepped in only when that did not happen.

Thanks mods.

I also would recommend "The Illusionist"

So this thread is basically a register? open the thread, post the movie you've watched, and get out? Well that's boring

This is ridiculous!

 

[harsh1387]

I have to agree with mods. A little discussion is fine but there were tons of it and this thread is basically a movie review/recommendation one which was losing its essence.

 

[harsh1387]

About Time-
Beautiful movie. I have always liked movies with the time travel background but this one treats it's absolutely differently. Highly recommended.
Rating- 4/5

Boring? in what sense.
the thread should go along with the title and should make sense accordingly.
if people come here to get rid of Boredom then this is not the thread

 

[rhitwick]

@Zangetsu, you have better things to do than debate. Better things like...Watch and review this title Sílení (2005) - IMDb

Along with that a twisted version of "Timothy Green" *www.imdb.com/title/tt0228687/

Nah you got me wrong. 'The thread gets boring' =/= 'I visit this thread to kill boredom'.
Never mind, I don't want a mod back on my ass giving me another warning for derailing the thread
But I hope you got the point.
