Re: What movies are you watching?
It was just the ending that did it for me. Spend the movie trying to put together clues and junk that they've been showing you - then at the last minute go 'Oh, by the way - we know we haven't hinted at this during the movie at all, but in the past this guy got pissed off because of...... - so it's him!'red calzolaio wrote:i mean, it wasn't bad. yea, the ending...ugh.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Finally saw Her. I'm so used to Kubrick & 2001 showing us how technology helps dehumanize a person. Spike Jonze shows us that it can help us find emotions that we never knew we had. Eh. Maybe. A very beautiful movie, though.
Yes, it felt like Phoenix's character had a lot of unresolved emotional issues. It could have been just his loneliness. But he explained how he had problems even during his marriage with Rooney Mara. Maybe he was just trying to find his identity? Mid-life crisis type thing. Because all the "hipsters" in the movie looked & acted the same. No distinct identity. I found that odd. And maybe in the end he found a rebirth. Maybe that helps clear things up. I can't speak for Mr. Jonze.Dev wrote:Anyone who has to pretend they are that nice all the time is hiding from something sinister. That's a fact. I'm speaking about the hipster morons depicted in Her.

I'm sorry to hear that.theplatypus wrote:Finally watched Inside Llewyn Davis. To be honest, it was kind of disappointing.
I think I may have just been looking forward to it too much. I enjoyed the cinematography and (some of) the music, but it really felt flat otherwise.
I felt Llewyn's pain. It's a selfish pain. It hurts to be your own worst enemy. What Im saying is that it's a great movie, so what the fuck is wrong with you?

Sort of, not sure what to make of it, I was really tired and got emotional at the end. Very dramatic.Dev wrote:well I haven't seen it, would you recommend it?Clint72 wrote:Fruitvale Junction - what did people think?

I liked The Prestige. The ending was quite obvious, but I thought that the story was well told.96583UP wrote:That ending was so creepytheplatypus wrote: I felt similarly about the ending of The Prestige. It just felt like cheating.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I re-watched Frances Ha the other night. I still love it, but I think I knock it down a couple of pegs on the list. It's first impression is better than the film. Maybe. Anyway, I think American Hustle is a better movie now that I've seen it again.

It's a credit to how good the directing and concept work is in that movie. Still my favorite Nolan effort.Rangi Guy wrote:I liked The Prestige.
