Movie Night (Official Movie Discussion Thread)

Just peeped the suge knight doc "american dream/american nightmare" on hulu/showtime. Shit was recorded before suge went to jail this most recent time. Dope fucking doc. Hard to tell how truthful he was when pressed about the big issues like pac, biggie, death row rumors, but definitely a dope watch for any fan of hip hop.
 


Just finished watching this, fairly slow film but decent. Didn’t end how I was expecting it to which is something new for horror movies.
 
I just watched Scott pilgrim vs the world for the first time on Netflix. Shit was pretty cool lol. Had no idea edgar Wright did it. Loved the way it was filmed with all the video game/comicbook stuff
 
Holiday season means I'm catching up on shit I downloaded on my satellite box and via my Amazon stick


Ready Player One - All I'm gonna say is no one is better with CGI in Hollywood than Spielberg... That Nigga a don .. His shit too clean especially watching in HD.

*watching War Of The Worlds as I type this*

Adapted from a book it tells a tale of virtual (un)reality gaming and a reward for participating gamers by a billionaire IT mogul played by Mark Rylance... His third movie with Spielberg now

The scene with The Shining in it was just excellence . . 4/5

Cheap Thrills - Black comedy about a family man down on his luck financially and his old friend who enters into a sick twisted physical game scheme with a rich dude and his wife in a single day in LA..


I was LOL'ing all the way through at the absurd shit a man can be driven to do for money ... Movie highlighted poverty in a gruesome way.. Recommended


Wolyn ('Hatred' in English) - WWII drama about the genocidal attacks on the Polish by nationalist Ukrainians between 1943 - 45 based on alleged factual events... This atrocities were not given much publicity because more emphasis was placed on Nazis murdering Jews in that time all over Eastern Europe


Very horrific to watch. Decapitations and savagery even on children... War is fucking futile no matter the provocations


Cloud Atlas - caught this on Netflix...


Multilayered tale on existentialism and time and the connectivity of the universe... Starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry and Susan Sarandon alongside an English cast


Directed by the Wachowski Bros.. this film flopped and was critically not successful with reviews but I thought it is a sleeper... GOAT editing especially and cinematography... Also the improvisation of actors here playing multiple roles was quite obvious but bears into the story...


For effort and scale... 4/5

When I watched Cloud Atlas a few yrs ago I cut it off cause I couldn’t follow it and lost interest...

Maybe I’ll give it another shot some day
 
It's a movie for patient chilled minds and if you get British humour


Not for the ADHD generation though... Far removed from the action of The Matrix movies
 
Watched these this weekend...

Coming of age comedy about 2 HS dropouts. The blonde is Leo DiCaprios current gf and has a surprisingly nice ass.
2/5

Road trip comedy. Very similar to the Zach Galifinakis Robert Downy Jr one. Should have been called Long Dumb Movie
1/5

?/5

Written & directed by the white guy ^ pretty sure its his 1st film. Tiff can get it. Unique take on current america. But dumb decisions and constant yelling make the movie a lil tough to watch in parts.
2.5/5

I watched "Searching" last night. It took about 10 mins to get used to the style of movie it was, but it ended up being a great movie.

5/5



Then I watched "You Were Never Really Here" and that shit was weird. It's like a bootleg Taxi Driver, character piece type movie. I'm gonna check to see if we have a thread for the movie to drop my theory in there.
 
There's not a thread.

I think all of the sex traffic shit was in his head. I think the girl is him and the mf who shot his mom is him.
