Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

[Ethan_Hunt]

Dil bole hadippa - Lived up to my expectations. Turned out to be bore as expected. So I wasn't disappointed. Had to watch it in theater because of some obligatory commitment. Rani looks good and all but the movie is very unrealistic and script is bad.

Quick question, is it a copy of She's the Man? The day I saw it's trailer, I didn't take time to figure it out, so just wanted to confirm.

I think there was some Indian version of She's the man starring, Ritesh Deshmukh last year. I haven't seen She's the man but I don't think Hadippa is its version.

^^ i know stalingrad(1993) is a german movie but i'm talking about STALINGRAD (2003)-a Documentary shown on TV which was released in (2003)..the documentary has three episodes. each episode is 50-60 mins. long

the one you are talking about is this
*www.imdb.com/title/tt0108211/

the one i'm talking about is this
*www.imdb.com/title/tt0376899/

If you want an actual documentary with actual true events and places watch Night and Fog. It a documentry about Nazi Germany's death camps. Some of the scenes are really graphic.

thanks...if there are any more movies and documentaries on WW2 plz post them.

Pi: Awesome
For a moment I thought that i am watching Eraserhead

Gran Torino-2008

Watch this movie for the sake of Clint Eastwood! I cant help but admire this guy (both as an actor and director). He plays the character of a grumpy, old racist bigot to the perfection. But that's not all!

8.5/10

just watched "the gray zone" a very good movie but remarkably it didnt sicken me...not in the least bit

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

Rocket Science - 6/10. Had potential but was a let down in the second half.

 

[abyss88]

the answer is in the movie

from 1:14:00 to 1:14:35

though i did have a sickening feeling after "requiem for a dream", "schindler's list"(i dont know why)...after watching "letters from iwo jima", i actually felt sorry for the japanese.
and same for the germans after watching "stalingrad 1993" and "das boot".

and after "night and fog"(thanks for that sam)
the original scenes show that humans were of no value to the nazis

 

[Krow]

^+1 to what u said abt requiem for a dream

 

[abyss88]

though these are not movies, i'd still recommend that you watch these shows

"Russell Peters.red,white and brown" and "Russell Peters.outsourced"

 

[a_medico]

+1 @ Sickening feeling after Requiem for the dream

Few more: (Not sickening but little depressing):
A moment to remember
Sublime
Lost in Translation
Chasing Amy
Cold Mountain
Dear Frankie
Into the wild
The Fountain (same director as Requiem)
The sea inside

Titanic - 9/10

Good movie. This movie is just about 3Hrs but i never felt they were dragging. Actually i thought to watch it a year back but i forgot to download it. But now.. i got a chance to download and watch.

I have a doubt about the actual story. Did the captain and the chief engineer of the ship died the same way they died in this movie?

This was the stupidest movie I watched of all time. I giant sinking ship+love story+car porn scene. James Cameron finished his apex after Aliens and the Terminator series.

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels 8.5/10 , I wonder how I missed this movie

Yea..excellent movie. Guy Ritchie is good. Makes solid, hard hitting movies. Tightly paced, and pieced well.

the untouchables(1987)

Robert de Niro as Al Capone, Sean Connery,Andy Garcia

well if there is a robert de niro or al pacino movie....u better watch it ASAP

(i've got no problem if the forum members give their views about any movie or if they post the last movie they watched and rate it accordingly)

BTW "snatch" is another movie u may wanna watch

Watch these then:
Heat : Pacino, De Niro, Val Kilmer, Ashley Judd. Gosh what a movie.
Scarface: Pacino is devastating.
Carlito's Way: Pacino is again damn good.
GoodFellas: Best gangster movie after Godfather. (De Niro)
Casino: De Niro and Sharon Stone and Joe Pesci. Good movie - Martin Scorcese directs this masterpiece.
Taxi Driver: De Niro shows what he really is. Jodie Foster is like a 14 year old kid. Harvey Kietel plays a vicious pimp.

Gran Torino-2008

Watch this movie for the sake of Clint Eastwood! I cant help but admire this guy (both as an actor and director). He plays the character of a grumpy, old racist bigot to the perfection. But that's not all!

8.5/10

Watch Clint Eastwood in the three spaghetti westerns (For a Few Dollars More, A Fistful of Dollars, Good, Bad, Ugly). Directed by the master Sergio Leone. If you get time then pick up (or download): Once Upton a Time in the West. Again directed by Sergio Leone. Charles Bronson/Peter Fonda/Claudia Cardinelle (believe me when you see her, your eyes will go wide). Sholay copied the train scene/and the family slaughter scene exactly from here.

The Warriors (1979):
*www.imdb.com/title/tt0080120/
Good thriller/adventure. Has some typical 80s cheesiness though I guess this could be one of the first movies to use comic book style narration.

Read the review. Will watch this...thanks...!

 

[Krow]

^I recommend Once Upon A time In America to all De Niro fans. Its Sergio Leone's last work and is a classic of 3.5hrs.

 

[abyss88]

^^+10000000 for that !!

Remake's not good, by the way.
