Imperium.

I thought this was pretty great but im a suck for these types of movies. They are so difficult to watch. I thought harry potter was excellent. Not so believable as an FBI agent, but much better as he went under cover.

Didnt have a huge payoff at the end but was a great movie.

I agree. Hawke was fantastic. Denzel's cartoonish performance matched the cartoon final act of the film, though. So maybe he was actually brilliant. :|

Training Day
Glory
Inside Man
He Got Game
Philadelphia
Malcolm X

And I've never seen Mo Better Blues, but I bet I'd like him in that based on his other works with Spike Lee.
He's also great in Hurricane. Though the movie isn't as good as it should be.

I had every intention of watching Guardians of the Galaxy last night. But I ended up staying at the hospital way later than I thought I would. My friend had some issues. Anyway... maybe Monday?

This movie was shot in 35mm. You have Denzel, Ethan Hawke, Peter Sarsgaard, Vincent Donofrio...and it just plain boring, stupid and unimaginative.

Oh! and its so fucking PC...Chris Pratt is a ¨bad guy¨but basically all he does is looking good and throw one liners all the movie, then you have a japanese, a mexican and an indian in the same team...and a girl, of course.

FUCK THIS.

John Wick. I would have expected something like this, if it had been a Steven Seagal movie directed by Renny Harlin.
