I thought that movie was so cool as a kid. But 5 on IMDb seems fair. :lol:

Anyway, I had no idea it was him.

The first three Police Academy movies did very well at the box office.

Too bad the talented one is the one likely to blame.

Would you guys put Tom Hanks on the same level as, say, Gary Oldman and Denzel Washington? (Daniel Day-Lewis has his own tier, I didn't forget him.)

No. Hanks is a thousand times better than Oldman or Washington.

What project proves either one is talented? All mid-tier shit that seems like it should be better than it actually is.

It's like I grew up on Stanely Kubrick. I know what the real shit looks like. I'm not falling for some Yorgos Lanthimos bullshit.

I don't think they are geniuses or anything, but Marty and Uncut Gems were nice. Smashing Machine was horrid though.

To me Uncut Gems is like Anora except Anora actually pays off.

I will say Smashing Machine is kinda interesting, in that I think it's the movie The Rock very much wanted to make. But I don't think there is much drama to ring out of that subject, and they were so obsessed with realism they forgot to say anything artistic.

One Battle After Another. Were they trying to make DiCaprio’s character resemble one of the Seven Samurai? If yes they did a good job.
