What Movie Did You Watch Last? 🎥

[¤ βℓооđч ¤ Nico-Kun!]

I guess super's thread is more for incoming movies, rather than discussing movies we've seen, so I'm setting up this thread for discussing our opinions about movies.

I watched Logan yesterday. I really liked it, if I have to be honest. Easily one of the best movies to come out this year, then again, it's the only film from this year I've seen so far.

The Electric State was actually a decent movie! I'm going to agree with the audience score on this one. Lots of cool robots and robot action.

Oh, good.

I only saw the critic score. Bunch of grumps

I'll add it to my list.

[B33 ENN]

Mississippi Burning (1988)[www.imdb.com]

Gene Hackman. Willem Dafoe.

Saw this back in the 90s. Just as good again now.

Two FBI agents investigate the murder of three civil rights activists by Trumpkins and Proud Boys racist cops and KKK members. They end up fighting fire with fire.

[B33 ENN]

Runaway Jury (2003)[www.imdb.com]

Gene Hackman. Dustin Hoffman. Bruce McGill. John Cusack. Rachel Weisz.

Entertaining courtroom thriller about jury manipulation in a gun violence case.

[B33 ENN]

Fargo (1996)[www.imdb.com]

Steve Buschemi. William H Macy. et al...

Great movie. Coen Brothers. Saw it long time ago. Forgot the plot mostly. Good fun to catch it again.

Fargo is a classic Coen Brothers movie. You should do Raising Arizona!

Oh, I loved that one too. Only saw it once. Good idea!

Cell (2016)[www.imdb.com]

John Cusack. Sam L. Jackson. Stacey Keach (briefly)

I watched it for the cast and because it's a Stephen King story. I recall Cusack and Jackson being in another King work, 1408, I believe.

Nothing like that. Nowhere near as good. It's basically like watching a film version of Left 4 Dead or something, but not as fun. People become zombies after listening to a strange audio on their mobile phones. Never gets better than that. Surprised they bothered making it, but the CGI certainly wasn't expensive, at least. It's okay for those times when you don't care to think and just need something to wear away the insomnia.

Electric State... it was fine.

Trailer is super misleading and sets bad expectations. Glad i hadn't seen it or i'd been super disappointed. So it was a forgettable movie that held my attention for its runtime.

[B33 ENN]

The Fourth Wall (2009)[www.imdb.com]

Milla Jovovich.

Psychological horror with and alien abduction theme, but told in an interesting way. Not seen it done like this before. It mixes what it claims are real interview recordings of a psychologist and her patients with extended dramatisations of the same, to make it seem like a real story, reminiscent of the found-footage genre.

It's okay. Nothing great, but better than expected for a low budget job compared to many high budget horror flops.

Watched that trailer. I feel I've seen the movie now. No need to waste a couple of hours on a future Disney World character rebellion.

The Apprentice. Didn't get very far into this before I bailed. Once again, totally repellant characters, poor acting, writing and direction. I think we all knew that Trump was always an obnoxious creep, the movie just rehashes well-known history.

Maybe it's a little unfair but I re-watched HBO's Angels in America a while ago and I couldn't help but think of what a great performance Al Pacino gave as Roy Cohn, and how one dimensional and cartoonish Jeremy Strong's performance as Cohn is in The Apprentice.

Yeah that is what i meant with the Trailer is misleading. It's so not what the movie is about. It is set after the rebellion in a post war alternate 90ties. If i had to describe it its part Roadtrip, part Rebellion against Facebook, if Facebook had merged with Apple and they made a device that is hyper addictive by letting you experience the Internet for real (they never show how that one works).

You follow a girl, who rejects technology, in search for her up till then believed to be dead brother.

That is about it, in a nutshell.
