I agree, except inception was really good.

Source code is kind've like a cross between a rip off of twelve monkeys and a rip off of inception.

Is The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus any good?

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.

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.
