What movies are you watching?

Dunkirk.

Loved it. Its such a small story and the montage is brilliant.

Loved it. Its such a small story and the montage is brilliant.

I would say that I liked it but didn't love it. But I do think there are brilliant moments within the film.

Yeah, its not his best movie, but im still shocked on how he uses the montage to tell this story.

VG.

[LoathedVermin72]

That movie has some of the most incompetent editing I've ever seen.

[VinylGuy]

The idea of the montage is brilliant...the three different timelines, the editing, the score...great. Im sure this story being told in a linear way would be way boring.

[Jorge]

Depending on editing to hide how boring and uninteresting the story you're telling is isn't commendable

[VinylGuy]

Well of course if you found the story boring, thats a matter of taste. In that case, yeah the montage is not going to please you.

Wasnt my case, lucky me.

[LoathedVermin72]

But...you just said...

[VinylGuy]

What i meant was that if you dont care about the story, world war 2, what happen in dunkirk for example, there is no way you are going to enjoy it.

I felt the way Nolan tells it, the way he chooses to is brilliant and way better than a linear montage. I was at the edge of my sit because of it.
I also loved the photography.

"Bird Lady's home for C-roll X-men."

Totally falls apart in the second half.

[Rangi Guy]

Watched An Inconvenient Truth again over the weekend -
and...
Boss Baby. Well my (almost) 2 year old seemed to enjoy most of it

[BurtReynolds]

Dunkirk was ok in bits and pieces, but altogether falls flat.

[VinylGuy]

She is out of my league.

Yeah, i watched that. Yep.

[bune]

"Bird Lady's home for C-roll X-men."

Totally falls apart in the second half.

It doesn't help they changed the ending and the two main girls powers for some dumb reason. The book was dumb enough, the movie was worse.

[run2death]

Seven Noomi Rapaces sounded like fun, but I only got about half-way through "What Happened to Monday."

Me and modern sci-fi just don't get along.

[BurtReynolds]

Is that a Netflix thing? I can't get into any Netflix shows.

"The Discovery" aka "rejected Black Mirror episode starring Marshall Erikson"

The Discovery gets its premise right, but refuses to take it far enough to make it interesting, and an ending that feels like it was tacked on months later. Basically a film school remake of Eternal Sunshine with none of what that film a masterpiece.

[tragabigzanda]

Atomic Blonde was... uh... not the best.

really? I mean i wasnt very interested but i was expecting at least a fun movie.

Starts strong. But you've seen this movie a thousand times before. It devolves into worn tropes. Even the imagery fizzles into ordinary/expected/mundane/predictable. The stunt work is outstanding. Charlize kills it. Sophia is wasted. It's totally fine. I don't hate it. But I left mostly unimpressed. I'll never need to see it again. The soundtrack is fucking badass, though. That was one major highlight.

Agreed on all counts. I would have liked it way more if it were actually filmed in 1989, with action scenes of that era rather than the whole Bourne thing. This was way too self aware.
