      Uncut gems. My heart rate stayed above 120 the entire time. I think i might have sweat a little too. Tension not action.

        @BloodnThunder:

        Joker, aside from the fact you know it's based on a Marvel character, really doesn't feel like a superhero movie in any way.  In certain ways it felt like the director wanted to simply make a movie about the state of mental health and may have simply used the Joker character to gain a larger audience.  This movie very easily could have been made and would have been fantastic if it had nothing to do with a comic book character.

        You meant to say “DC” character of course.

        Thematically and stylistically there are enormous similarities to Taxi Driver. Loner in the big city, feels alienated and misunderstood and enters a downward spiral where his self pity turns into self loathing, before being projected onto those around him with inevitable results.

        Describing it in that way has me feeling I might over relate  😶

              Watched it on the plane yesterday; found it very good, if a bit wandering.

                I did not mind the wandering at all.  If movies are meant to entertain, then this hit the nail on the head fair and square

                  Wife and I really loved it. Happy to see Brad Pitt win the Oscar for it.

                    Brad Pitt was excellent in this.

                        Sure.  All that stuff is the same to me.

                          SNOWPIERCER re-visit: Weinstein might be a pig, be he was right about the movie not being tight enough… Still has some memorable scenes though...

                          PARASITE: well I've been a fan of his flicks... Even liked OKJA... But PARASITE is solid af... Just give it a view, you won't be sorry...

                          THE IRISHMAN: I only watched the first 20' but wanted to really give this flick the time and attention it deserves, so I decided on watching the rest today... Might watch ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD as well... Tomorrow I wanna start a second watch of LA MEGLIO GIOVENTÙ...

                          Holidays: aren't they just the best...

                            Well THE IRISHMAN was just fantastic… Loads of great cameos, lotsa humour, huge sprinkling of melancholy towards the end... All the casting was spot on... Music... Loved it...

                            Might have to re-visit MEAN STREETS for the umpteenth time as well...

                              I enjoyed Alita. Pretty strange movie, but I generally enjoy dystopian and cyberpunk themes. I would expect sequels if the business side of things allows for it.

                              Think it, be it.

                                  Come As You Are - Three young men with disabilities hit the road with a jaded nurse driver to a brothel in Montreal catering to people with special needs. Remake of the acclaimed Belgian film 'Hasta La Vista'.

                                  We really enjoyed this film this evening and thoroughly recommend it 👍

                                    HOLY COW where does one begin… First of all: there were some crazy cars in this flick!.. And cuts... Details... Tarantino being Tarantino...

                                    I never liked Dicaprio... To me he always felt like a sober Liotta... But he delivers here... And Pitt does as well...

                                    Man I loved every god-dang second of this movie... Laughed so hard as well... And concerning the ending: WHO THE HELL DOESN'T LIKE AN ENDING LIKE THAT?!?!?

                                        A sober Liotta 😃 😃 @Seul  you should be paid to review movies! I never liked Leo  either. And the cars were great

                                        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                                        Well, I have others.

                                          Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was excellent. Watched Ford v Ferrari again this weekend and it has some slow moments but overall I’d recommend it.
