The Movie Thread

nishantgandhi · 26th March 2008, 23:41

Just watched Invincible. Very inspiring movie of a 30 year old NFL crazy bar tender who has the ambition of playing for the Philadelphia Eagles. It is based on a true story. Mark Wahlberg plays the role aptly and brings out the guy's character very well. However, I wish the movie hadn't ended so abruptly!

Finished watching "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset" back to back. A big thanks to everyone who recommended it.

Simply loved both and now am waiting for the 3rd part.

Exactly, typical Quentin Tarantino style

Just watched "The Sting" courtesy Hydra. Was very good and had a twist at the end.

Gautam,
My take on the following:

1) 30 days of night: haven't seen it and not planning to watch it either. Not a big fan of 'horror/gross for the sake of horror'

2) Apocalypto: I have heard it is good, but havent yet got a chance to download it, hence not watched it

3) Silent Hill: Again a stupid/gross supposedly horror, which I haven't watched for reasons cited in 1) above

4) American Psycho: Very good psychological thriller. One of the best of Bale. I would say 7/10

5) Sin City: My personal fav in the list. Offbeat and completely different style of film making. Yes, it is very violent and gets a bit confusing due to different stories. So watch it with focus. 8.5/10 for me.

Sin City is just amazing. id give it 8.5 too.
Is extremely violent in some parts. But is worth watching because of the way it is made.

AVOID.!
It was soooo boring that i didnt even feel like watching the second half.

2) Apocalypto
3) Silent Hill

you must watch these two movies, but the silent hill game is much better P2 game.
