I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

First is mediocre with some great moments from Gibson.
Second is pretty bad.
Three and four are where the series hits its stride. Total blasts.

i loved the 4th one...i thought it was pretty special, and it had Jet Li!!tragabigzanda wrote:They're all on Netflix now. I think 1 & 3 are aces. 2 is ok, but the plot is sort of nonsensical. 4 is a mess.VinylGuy wrote:I love the third one...i barely remember the second one...the 4th was cool too.

4 is a true ensemble movie, which I think works to its benefit. Ending it with a family snapshot tells you all you need to know.

Yeah I agree. It's a perfect close to the series. I'm kinda glad they never made a fifth.VinylGuy wrote:True. It was a really good farewell too.LoathedVermin72 wrote:4 is a true ensemble movie, which I think works to its benefit. Ending it with a family snapshot tells you all you need to know.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I agree...i liked the movie, but the music..ugh, it was such a cheap move. PLEASE CRY, LOOK AT THIS, LOOOK!!!tragabigzanda wrote:Room. It's a mixed bag. Terrific performances, and the camera work for the first half of the film is really good. The music sucks (not just the ending, but the whole manipulative lot of it), and I hate the kid's voiceover for the same reasons. I wish the same story had been told with a more blunt, faux-documentary style. The best example I can think of right now is Martha, Marcy, Mae, Marlene -- that movie took a similar "before-and-after a traumatic event" approach, and it felt so real. This one is executed well, but it feels very Hollywood in that execution.
I still think Mad Max should have won for best pic this year.
