Unexpectedly good films...

<< < (3/16) > >>

greenkabbage:
I did enjoy adaptation! And I will have to go see lost in translation at some point. another noteworthy director is stanley kubrik. a clockwork orange anybody?  :D

Spymon:
I have the little kubrick box set.  Not sure if he's a true cinematic genius though as much as I enjoy his films.  Goodbye Lenin had a lot of kubrick references in.  Dr. Strangelove is probably one of my favourite films that Kubrick did.  It's just too funny.

greenkabbage:
Dr. Strangelove is genius. I mean a guy riding a freaking bomb wearing a cowboy hat? It was histerical. And I love my english teacher for watching it in class :D

Danzig:
Hmmm... one of my favorite movies has to be Boodock Saints... if you havn't seen it, rent it... if you cant find it in the rental place... go BUY it... I can garauntee you will like it if you like Action/Comedy.  It has a few good stars, and is well directed.  If you liked Pulp Fiction, or Resevior Dogs, I can almost (for a fact), know you will like this movie.

Its about two Irish Brothers that go on a mafia killing spree.  They are cleaning up the streets of South Boston... its SWEET. (Oh yeah It also remided me of Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels for some reason)

Tofusensei:
Haha!!

I knew a french girl who LOVED that movie. She made me watch it with her. I have to admit that it is very good. Danzig was right with his suggestion, if you like those kind of movies, you will love the Boondock Saints.

Another movie that I did not expect to like but really fell in love with was Spy Games. I went to see it in the theater on a whim (I didn't even read a single review about it) and thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a strange film because it's essentially 2 hours of background info building up for 5 minutes of movie. :)
