12 years late but I just watched "The Sixth Sense". I recommend it. The creepy ghost scenes make it worth it.

The first hour or so is.... but it collapses towards the end and devolves into something stupid.

one of his worse ones really... There are some really cool 'bits', but the film as a whole isn't that great

his best (most interesting) are his trippy early ones- Brazil & timebandits... all of the US ones are brilliant, but more 'normal', as they're american-- The Fisher King (don't know if anyone's seen this, but it is one of his best: fucking superb, and has Jeff Bridges & robin williams), 12 monkeys, and Fear & loathing in las vegas... films since then havn't been as good imo

Stake Land, looks good and well filmed, ok effects. Fairly tertiary character development and a mediocre ending... which probably means a terrible sequel at some point.

Agreed.


I highly recommend Miike's 13 Assassins. Yes, it's cliche-loaded, a Seven Samurai homage and I think even a remake. Sounds like a recipe for disaster but the movie actually is really good.

^ I just watched 13 Assassins for the second time last night. First time was in theaters. I liked it even more this time around. What a great movie - my favorite of the year so far.

the tree of life



just saw the movie. if you plan to see it, do not download a crappy video quality version of this please. that is basically a slap to malick's face, and takes away the intentions of this film. find some kind of source for high quality definition or pay for it at the theater (it's worth it). this is not a movie. this is a 2 1/2 hour mesmerizing mental euphoric experience. that is all.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

Vaguest of the vague description from IMDB:

The story centers around a family with three boys in the 1950s. The eldest son witnesses the loss of innocence.

the main root plot of the movie surrounds a standard lower middle class family in a 1950s somewhere in the small midwest/southern town. we watch the family go through a series of emotions: happiness, sadness, distress, anger, fear, etc .. this is just a part of the movie.

the first 5 minutes is an introduction to brad pitt and jessica chastain, then we go to a 45 minute electric ride through a series of great shots of life (the universe, physical world, natural world, material world, etc ..). we finally get introduced to the family somewhere an hour into the movie, and we get to understand and feel what they are seeing and experiencing.

in my opinion, malick is showing us different perspectives of life. life can be much more than the birth and death of certain things, but the growth and maturity into time. sounds douchey? yes. sounds like something snooty and make you want to punch puppies because you feel dirty? yes. is this movie too "bible thumping", and the bible is forced down your throat? yes. will it give you different views of the meaning of life? yes.

unfortunately, some people left during the "45 minute electric ride". a lot of people stayed until the end of the credits.
