Jables Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Really? I thought it was one of Smith's finest efforts since Chasing Amy. Red State was great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) Dont worry JZA it was. I saw this in a theater with 3 other friends and they fucking loathed it too. I came out with a big ass smile on my face. Michael Parks is badass. Edited June 4, 2015 by Axels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Micheal Parks is and was great in this. Justin Long had his moments, too. Hell, up until when shit is revealed, the movie was pretty decent. Afterwards, everything went down hill. Johnny Depp couldn't even save it.

Mr. Hakujin Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 ^That was a great little film.I don't think it did really well in theaters, but I want to say it got some Oscar nominations at least, right? Renne RUsso was also really good in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Yeah it was cool to see her in it. It definitely deserves a bigger audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Excellent film. Leto plays a fucking blinder in it. Reminded me a little of Bale in American Psycho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keth Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Not the last thing I watched, but one of the last horror movies I saw was called End of the Line. Pretty decent and low budget about a Christian doomsday cult wreaking havoc in a subway. It's got some schlocky acting, but it kinda works and has a really great ending.

Da Cap'n 2099 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Ted 2. Not as good as the first one, but funny. Comic Con scene was great. Jurassic Park scene I nearly peed my pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 King of comedy with Stephen Chow. Fuck if that man isn't the Chinese Mel Brooks. That movie was hilarious. God of Cookery is on Netflix and will be watched next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Went to Magic Mike XXL with my girlfriend. I liked it a lot more than I was expecting. I laughed my ass of nearly the whole way through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Jupiter Ascending. Pretty to look at, but yeah, pretty damn bad. Yup. I went in with low expectations and was still disappointed. :/ Ted 2. Not as good as the first one, but funny. Comic Con scene was great. Jurassic Park scene I nearly peed my pants. To me the NYCCC scene was what put it on par with the first one. Great comedy film. They do move in herds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Kingsman: The Secret Service (FINALLY). Fucking awesome! This is a blu-ray purchase for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donatella Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Ted 2. Not as good as the first one, but funny. Comic Con scene was great. Seeing Patrick Warburton as the Tick during the NYCC scene made the entire movie worth watching! Just watched The Naked Gun on Netflix! Recently rewatched Airplane! for the millionth time and now I'm on a Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkerSeed Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Saw The Tribe last week. It's a Ukrainian movie about a kid who is sent to a boarding school for the deaf, joins a gang there and enters a life of crime. It's entirely in sign language and has no subtitles, so it's essentially shot and produced so that it functions as a silent movie. The "no subtitles" bit is kind of a gimmick (you wouldn't do that shit if it was just in a different spoken language) but it is expertly directed. There are incredible long takes with really well choreographed movement between the characters, actors, extras, etc. It looks incredible and some scenes are really jaw dropping. On a technical level the film is remarkable, and it also takes plenty of risks with it's characters likeability (or lack thereof) and your attention span that really pay off. Unfortunately, it doesn't really know where to go. For all of it's defiance of convention in certain ways, it goes down a pretty stock descent into ultraviolence and darkness that feels tacked on and intellectually lazy. It was clear by the end of the film that the filmmaker had very little to say. I would still recommend it based on how well directed it is and how powerful some scenes are, but just when you're watching it and mistaking it's slow pace and well-staged long takes for depth, know that you will be reminded quickly that still waters don't always run deep.

Mr. Hakujin Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Saw a doc on Netflix called An Honest Liar. All about this magician who debunks frauds. Highly recommended! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Maggie (AH-NOLD zombie flick). Not bad. Slow, but with the feels. I'd say it's a nice, different addition to the genre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
