Which movie did you watch lastֻ

Murphy’s War.

since today, August 2, is Peter O’Toole’s birthday,
we watched one of his movies. it is “fair”.
in our opinion, he overacts in this one.
but, for a free rental, it was good enough.

Still got time, so definitely catch “Creator”, a great POT flick.

I caught it like 0300 on a Saturnday night / Sunday morning, caught like the first few minutes of it, and stayed up ’til dawn to watch the rest of it. It’s funny, sad, feelgood, dramatic, everything good wrapped into one movie burrito.

“Son of a bitch!!” :laughing:

Say it loud, say it proud!

@up - great movie!

Just watched Nobody’s Fool
Great, warm, movie.
Paul Newman, Jessica Tande, Melanie Griffith, what could go wrong?

I Am Not A Serial Killer - 2016, Has Christopher Lloyd in it

One of the more unique horror/thriller movies I have seen. I can see myself watching it again some day.

Yep, I saw I Am Not A Serial Killer about a year ago.

It's pretty good.

It agree it’s on the slower side but I thought they used the time well overall.

Boiler Room… for about the 50th time (:

Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas

This Dreamworks movie doesn’t get talked about much and it’s easy to see why after watching it and the making-of featurette. This movie seems like it wanted a PG-13 or R rating; I think the creators forgot they were making a kids movie at times. Even in the featurette you can hear them talking about characters being sensual and sexy.

Here are a few observations:

  • Enough innuendos made it into the movie to piss off parents, but the dialogue is still very much kids-movie level
  • The CGI and 2D animation are blended somewhat less effectively than Treasure Planet, but the movie still manages to look really good at times due to the imagination behind the world design.
  • This movie has the most MacGuffiny MacGuffin that ever was or will be.
  • Brad Pit, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Michelle Pfeiffer all star in this movie.
  • Bloodless PG action scenes are surprisingly well choreographed

I think the concept of a swashbuckler film about Sinbad was massively held back due to being made for kids. This could have been amazing. Unfortunately, it’s just a mediocre movie with hints of greatness and is probably best to watch buzzed on alcohol.

I hope someone else takes a stab at a Sinbad swashbuckler whether it is animated or live-action. We don’t get enough swashbucklers these days.

saw this a loooong time ago….

8/10, good movie.
Phoenix 1998

Yea, I loved all those Harryhausen movies. I actually ran into him unexpectedly a few years before he passed away when I was wandering around one of the back hallways of Comic-Con in the early days. One of my more unforgettable moments :slight_smile:

Centigrade - slow and boring - great if you need something to put you to sleep.

Black Spruce - worth watching if you like this type of movie.

Watched Nobody the other night https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7888964/

Definitly worth a watch, especially if you like Bob Odenkirk (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul)

He had a small heart attack while filming the last series of Better Call Saul but is ok.

Terrific, brilliant movie with superb Albrecht Schuch acting.
Best spent 3 hours. 9/10 strongly recommend.
Berlin Alexanderplatz

azj…i am jealous.

The Suicide Squad

I….liked it far more than I thought I would. It’s not a movie to be taken seriously but it’s a hell of a lot of fun. Violent, irrelevant & absurd.

I actually saw this in the theater before The Matrix (which was released a couple of months earlier). It’s a personal favorite.

I thought Suicide Squad was pretty good for a DC superhero movie.

We’re talking about the one that just came out and not the first one? I liked the first one quite a bit, this one much less…

….Better than Dawn of Justice though
