By wrong I mean it is not the end all & be all that it is proposed as such. Its weak in spots and putters in spots. It looks hurried at times. It's serviceable and new at that moment, but, it's not "genius" Blake.
Lord-a-mighty, yes.
The correct answer is Crash. It was the worst movie I've ever seen and the fact that it won the Best Picture Oscar is an absolute pathetic, laughable joke.
Lord-a-mighty, yes.
Hmmmm.../thread worthy
The run-time isn't why it's bad imo. I personally love the film--it glorifies in excess and violence (like most BDP films) and has a great 80's soundtrack/score, but watching Al Pacino, F. Murray Abraham, and Robert Loggia try to sound like Cubans is hilariously awful.Damn, and you're the biggest DePalma fan on here. I like it a lot for its look and tone, but it could be shorter.
Probably the one I agree the most with is Forrest Gump, I never understood how that became a classic.
On a related note: Is Pacino the most overrated actor of all time?
I think so. Brando and James Caan really made the first Godfather work and the second was all DeNiro's brilliance. I hated any time it went back to Pacino in 2.
I thought everyone hated that movie.
Everyone is racist as in that movie, it's like they just cast the NBA forum in it.
Speaking of terrible oscar winning movies, The Hurt Locker.
I heartily concur.
+ the use of actual footage (boat lift) in the beginning helps this film immensely. Gives it a super shot of immediacy, a dose of quality there.
His mother's character is a fine actor and she bridges the film from Cuba to the States. It's difficult to forget her. His sister, yes, but, not mother. Perhaps not since Bogart's mother in "Dead End" have we seen such recognition of son.
The scene he went Bergdahl really made me hate the character.
That would have been the first one I mentioned but I don't know anyone who thinks that's a good movie anymore.
You guys are such movie snobs.
Forrest Gump - funny/shows what perseverance can do and so many cultural references.
Harry Potter - the 7th movie was bad, but my family loves the whole series (especially the enchantment and wonder of Hogwarts in the 1st).
Sound of Music - a classic - so many great songs - pity she had that operation on her throat
Top Gun - great fight scene at end
Star Wars trilogy - ahead of its time - nothing like it (well, except TV's Star Trek) - saw Empire Strikes Back (which didn't explain the Force) before Star Wars - didn't care for the 3rd - got too cutesy with the Ewoks
Matrix - lol- had to have my husband explain it to me when I watched it the first time
My favorites:
50 First Dates
Con Air
Aliens 2
Terminator 2
Pride and Prejudice (6 hr A&E version)
Off the top of the dome, no order:
-All the Taken movies..atrocious, yet somehow they have a cult following
- Scarface..terrible movie that got inflated by rappers, etc
- The Revenant..very average movie IMO..
- Virtually all Adam Sandler movies..White people are appalled when you insult Adam Sandler, similar to speaking ill of Larry Bird or Peyton Manning, but he makes some of the tiest movies I've ever seen
- Straight Outta Compton..so corny..
Perserverance is all it takes to make a cripple re who licks the window into an All-American running back war hero billionaire?
The Piano (so boring...)
Bless you, Har. I won't do one. No way.
Who considers that great bro? lol
