Secret Ninja Movie Club (aka what have you watched lately)

[Johnlenham]

World's End got a 94 tomatometer. I loved Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead. Gonna see it Saturday night.

Its good, bit more serious than the other too but still wirth a watch.

Saw Elysium last night, was good popcorn movie.
Its not till I left and was talking to my gf did we say "well hang on.. what about XYZ"
Looked great though and they used some cool angles/filming tech
Heard a bit of Burial at one point and Kryptic Minds- Six Degrees is used for a good while background music (with nothing being spoken over the top)
Worth a watch.
Might go see Kickass2 next week as that was what it was between this week.

Black Cat, White Cat (1998)

Beautifully shot, farcical comedy set around small-time hustlers somewhere on the Danube in Serbia. The old men are truly wonderful. Bizarre, but wonderful.

Yeah kusturica is amazing. 'underground' is incredible and his maradona portrait is pretty fun.

[DiegoSapiens]

have some great films and his concerts are crazy

[wolf89]

Dark and creative plot with some interesting ideas, occasionally darkly funny, looks good, painfully slow pacing to some of the scenes (but in a good way). Really good. Not a light afternoon entertainment type of a movie as a heads up.

and at COMPLETELY the opposite end of the spectrum


Fucking stupid. But that's why I enjoyed it.

I didn't know anything about it when we put it in... turned out to be one of the best things I've seen all year. I quite want to watch it again, but I know how it's going to make me feel and I'm nervous.

I don't watch anime very much, but this was a heck of a movie.

Pain & Gain = BIG UPS

We're the Millers = BIG UPS



Olympus has fallen = little downs

[Liam92]

Thought this amazing and the girl who plays the main character at only 6 years old is unbelievable!

I thought the outsider-awkward-adolescent thing had been done and redone, but this works well. Bittersweet comedy with a good Reilly performance and a funny, lighter take on the subject. Recommended even if you've already seen films on the subject

The Iceman, they added bits to the story which added nothing to the film yet the actual interesting bits in the real story was just a quick forgettable scene. They should have put a lot more into the 'prey to God' scene and there was no crossbow in the whole film!! Should have made the friendship with that other contract killer more interesting too.

The 'prey to God' had potential to be as good as the call it/coin flip scene in No Country For Old Men, instead it was just a part of the film nobody will remember, unless you've seen the documentary then you'll remember it as being utterly disappointing.

Michael Shannon was really good though, great acting.

Not a bad film but not a great one either, the documentary was 1000x more interesting, highly recommend it.

Very much enjoyed this one.

Kidult/Adulthood.

good watch, but i didn't understand like a good half of the movies lol

[sigbowls]

last days of left eye

it about the raper from tlc, good documentry but its sad

[BaronVon]

Hard to believe this is real. It's not a film that will be forgotten easily that's for sure.

Absolutely captivating. By far the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. I wonder if the actual film comes with the DVD release of the documentary. I'd also like to know what came of the filmmakers and Anwars Congo who seemed close to mental breakdown.
Thanks for the recommendation
