Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

^I rate that movie as De Niro's and Scorsese's best. 10.1/10.

^^ Goodfellas..??

 

[Rahim]

^Do watch Salo

 

[Krow]

@ asigh Not even half as good. Taxi Driver is also a play on his mental state. Goodfellas is a different genre altogether IMO. It falls more in the category of Once Upon A Time In America.

Taxi Driver has many subtle hints all the way that he was actually "seeing" things. The pun on the media is also evident throughout. Also, I like the lady in TD more. The one who was campaigning for the Senator.

Until and unless any money is involved in the whole process, this is very much legal.

@rhitwick

thanks for clarification

Chintu Ji 6/10 (5.5+.5 grace mark)

Started off very well. Seemed to be Black Comedy.
Initial 30-50 minutes had good humor and subtle intelligent puns...I was thinking of a 7 rating.

But, then it started with cliches and then meaningless twists and turns.
The worst is the climax.

Still I recommend it for the few initial scenes, u would enjoy but be prepared for the bad part too.

Not everyone is a Shyam Benegal and not every "village" movie can be a "Welcome to Sajjanpur"

Watched original Telugu Pokiri, liked that movie.

^hey, long time no see.
Watched Wake up Sid some days back. Give it a miss. Almost no story in there. But all of Ranbir's shirts were ubergeeky. That was the only thing I was watching in the movie.

 

[Krow]

^Didn't expect a story from Wake Up Sid... Wanna watch Up and Inglourious Basterds!!!

 

[rhitwick]

^hey, long time no see.

Was that to me?

I was at home, but posted a few movie reviews coming back...

Hmmm........nah......ekbar socha hai to bas dekhna hai.........

Blade Runner : A True, no-BS sci-fi movie ::

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

The Green Mile - 10/10. This movie, IMO, beats The Shawshank Redemption by a long shot. Fantastic film with a brilliant performance by Michael Clarke Duncan. Tom Hanks was great as usual, but I never knew Michael Clarke Duncan had so much potential. Never during this 3 hour movie journey did I ever feel bored or felt it was going too slow or dragging along. That's the way to present a superb storyline, I would say.

^+1
Same feeling towards the film!!!
