Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

[shakahislop]

hate that film. part of the lineage of american war films that only give a shit about americans.

I watched 'The Passenger' on BFI player last night

I thought it was really good on the whole, despite having scenes in it which seemed almost parodic of the notion of european art films

Some amazing shots though, 'PURE CINEMA' shit

the passenger is a version classic, i desperately need to watch up

Can't vouch for the picture quality but the whole thing is here

Nicholson has been in some really great films... Which hollywood star is fucking with this, Pacino? DeNiro? Damien Lewis?

The Shining
Chinatown
Five Easy Pieces
The Last Detail
One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest
The Departed (dissensus classic)
The Passenger

I watched Hellboy the other night and I knew within ten minutes it was a waste of time and I loathed it, but I had to see it out for some reason

I was in the pit

Most of the time I just can't be bothered to watch ANY film, and especially a really good oneI

I forgot about this, I actually watched Hellboy ffs

 

[Corpsey]

actually saw most of this film the other day by accident

it was surprisingly entertaining, i can recommend watching about 65% of it

Watched a little bit of it last night and just couldn't get into it. I like the first two of the ones however. The monkeys look really good

There's a bit where a gorilla chases a chimpanzee through a flooding maze of girders

 

[luka]

[version]

Rewatched Le Cercle Rouge and liked it a lot more this time around. I'd completely forgotten about sweaty Montand covered in lizards and crabs.

 

[Murphy]

Spoiler: ssssshhhhh

yet he nails the vital alarm shot finale

cast of the ages, very little dialogue, JPM lets it build to simmering before one of the more assured robbery sequences put on film

night shift tomorrow sorted, ta

I got clickbaited the other day

An article about how JN now lives alone in a big mansion and walks around in a dementia fog

He's all fat and digusting looking now, too

Which is obviously officially tragic but secretly I love it because he fucked a million women and now he's paying for it, and who's the best Jack now, eh?

 

[Corpsey]

Now I hate Ray, his son, who probably is bored by normal vaginas
