It isn't a don't see really; it is true history. But therefore it does not make this a movie worth-seeing.

I found From Dusk Till Dawn to be all kinds of badass. The movie was just plain fun. Nothing to be taken seriously, I laughed at parts that werent funny, it has Salma Hayek, it has Tarantino duck taping his hand after a bullet pierces through it, and best of all, it has Harvey Keitel. Cant go wrong if you ask me.

Pulp Fiction is my favorite movie of all time. Agree or disagree, it still doesnt change the fact that I've watched the entire movie over 30 times and still love every second of it.

Saw The Departed not too long ago. Loved it. Its no Taxi Driver or Goodfellas, but its damn close.

i finished up Sophie's Choice tonight


that was a pretty fucked up choice

/o rite. i definitely recommend
it pwns

worst movie I've watched in months: Smokin Ace's

Elaborate plz?

BTW, BLACK DAHLIA - CROCK OF SH!TE that stinks to high heavens

Irreversible was one f*cked up movie but definitely worth a watch for those who are into French Hard-core cinematography + it had Monica Belluci.

I am actually quite fond of some french movies, bad as they may be. Some of my faves:

- Just about anything by Luc Besson (which includes many's favorite "The Fifth Element". I also enjoyed the "13th District", even tho it was rather silly.

Also, the original french versions of "Taxi" and "Taxi 2" were pretty good. "Brotherhood of the wolf" had some of the most amazing cinematography I've ever seen.

"Doberman" was crazy funny/violent at the same time. Sort of along the lines of typical Brit crime movies - LSATSB/Trainspotting.

more to come...

District B13 was badass.

Yup:



add "Yamakasi" to that:

Last night I had a nightmare that I was in "Saw 17" and it was all live action... so I had to be chased around by crazies with hacksaws and machetes.

LOL that it was Saw "17" though, I always thought it was obnoxious that the movie had two sequels, and Ive never even seen it, but it made its way into my nightmare.

...the director cut, which has 22 mins of extra footage too, further explaining the relationship between Leon and (whatshername) Natalie Portman.

Lives of Others. Makes you appreciate Paul van Dyk more. =)

wat

I own that movie - it's awesome because it has Robert Englund as a cranky old codger who tries to keep his pet washing machine from eviscerating more hapless old ladies...

but fails.

Originally posted by aNYthing My "must see" recommendations: - "The Prestige" - awesome, reaaaaaly good movie... just don't treat it like "OMG, that's impossible". Go along with the story and you'll find it excellent. Kinda like "The sixth sense" in terms of twists and turns. - "The Departed" + "Internal Affairs" (original version). See Internal Affairs first, then "The Departed" for added pleasure. If you don't like watching spoiled movies or watching 2x, see "The Departed" then. I'd add "300" but I haven't seen it yet. anyway. recommend/bash away.

Glad you popped up the Prestige. The movie is so underratted its scary. The depth is just incredible, yet I do see the qualms with the "real magic", as it isn't built up to, nor really treated that well after.

I'd say you're a complete asshole if you add 300 to that list of well thought out and executed movies.

Anyways, you're recs don't have much rhyme or reason, but these are the movies I find myself returning to...

Gattaca
Shawshank Redemotion
The Others
Monsters Inc.
City of God

I recommend The Proposition. It's a new western style film with an excellent script, great acting & a bit of blood'n'guts. A Totally underated film.



I did enjoy the Prestige so +1 to that one too.

Best movie ever:

Vertigo

It was a bad movie.

I liked it - I had fun watching it for the piece of shit that it was - but it was not a good movie by any means.

+ Cool Hand Luke

I need help. I cant decide which movie to watch today.

Shooter(with that mark wahlberg guy) or sunshine(with that 28 days later guy)

Both seem to get above average ratings.. bot not really "OMG NEED TO WATCH THIS ASAP" kind of movie.

Man Bites Dog is a must see :]
