Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted February 8, 2020 Moderator Share Posted February 8, 2020 22 hours ago, Inverted said: Yeah I liked him in Good Time. It's just the difference between where he is in his career, and where Willem Defoe is, just shows so much when theyre put next to each other for a full movie. I think Pattinson could really have a special career if he keeps this up. He was also pretty good in "The King", with Timothée Chalamet (who is a whole different level IMO, but that's another subject), and in the Rover. Looking forward to see him in the new Christopher Nolan movie. Oh yea, and as Batman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue 971 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 1917 - 7/10 Different from the classic war movies, i liked it a lot however i am not that hyped to be fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,557 Posted February 12, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted February 12, 2020 Parasite - 8.5/10 As i said in the oscar thread I just watched it the week before the oscars. Excellent movie on alot of levels. Theres very strong social truths in the background of a film with some comic scenes and very good acting. Well crafted plot and twists, kind of ends of going nuts as alot of other asian movies do. Definitely worth watching, I enjoyed a different perspective on something not hollywood. One of the better asian movies Ive seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,360 Posted February 12, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) I found this film on Youtube and as I read the book by John Grisham I thought I would watch it which I did with the wife and quite enjoyed it and an 8/10 for me, 'A Painted House' (2003), apparently it was a series on tv way back starring John Glenn, Grisham normally writes legal dramas and he tried his hand at writing this book and it came out on top.

Rick 2,276 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 A Time To Kill - 8/10 Had a co worker tell me about this one, no idea how I had never heard of it with that cast. Really enjoyed it, I’m a sucker for the 90s drama/thrillers. Only complaint was that it ran a bit too long, but nevertheless it will be one that I go back to every so often. Also, I’ve always been pretty much in love with Sandra Bullock, and this one only cemented my undying love for that woman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick 2,276 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 The House That Jack Built - 6.5/10 Difficult film to watch, but I knew it was going to be going into it. I wouldn’t say I enjoyed it, but it was well made and I can appreciate the performance by Dillon. He was excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadLinesman 5,938 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Underwater - 7/10 Imagine Aliens vs Deep Blue Sea. That’s pretty much it. No character depth or build, but take it for what it is. Some of the special fx are great and I enjoyed the soundtrack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted 1,776 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Parasite - 9/10 Just a brilliant movie. It really just is good on every level. It's gripping all the time at through, it's funny and hits you hard, it keeps you guessing, and I've been juggling different questions about it in my head ever since I left the cinema. Looks great as well, it's brilliantly acted, and the music is equal parts hilarious and disturbing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted February 27, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted February 27, 2020 A Hidden Life (2019) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5827916/ Got round to watching it at last... A fantastic movie; finally another true masterpiece by Terrence Malick and a very deserving tribute to Franz Jägerstätter and civil disobedience and conscientiousness. The cinematography is unreal, the story is profound and powerful and the cast is amazing. August Diehl does an amazing job and the movie is a beautiful return to traditional narrative for Malick at his best. A true visual and emotional feast. @Tommy you have to watch this! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memories of Murder is by far the director's best flick, and one of the best serial killer movies out there. The Host is another good flick from the director, though a bit weird at times. I liked Parasite, as well. The observation on social classes was nicely done. Edited March 3, 2020 by IgnisExcubitor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A man wakes in a hospital bed with no recollection of who he is and learns that he's wanted by the police for committing a series of murders.
