thanks for the new movies thread! :yay: i watched Snowpiercer last night, with Chris Evans. a quite interesting and quirky South Korean sci-fi/dystopian action thriller, with both social and political undertones and overtones, depending on your point of view.

if you have seen this hugely underrated film, please answer the question in the spoiler tag, just curious. if you haven't seen it, please don't look, it can be a spoiler, hence the tags. :)

Just saw in the last thread that Millie is a fan of John Carpenter's Vampires! It's so hard to come by others who have seen and liked that movie, too! :look:

Watched a few Hallmark Movies last night. :look:

The Proposal-one of my favorite movies...it never fails to make me laugh! My favorite Ryan Reynolds is amazing as always! :love: Love Betty White in this :lmao: always recommended!

Movie: VALENTINE
Year Released: 2001
Starring: David Boreanaz, Denise Richards, Marley Shelton, Jessica Capshaw
Plot: A victim of bullying at his school prom comes back 13 years later to get revenge on those who wronged him that night :evil_lol:
Rating out of 5 stars :star::star:
Comments: Fun 90's slasher flick, BUT...

:spoiler:

The ending puts a downer on the whole movie. It's a shame, because the rest of the movie is pretty good and they pull all the typical red herrings in the WhoDunnit? mystery aspect. A lot of the supporting characters are forgettable and/or cruel people (what was with Dorothy's guy, Campbell??? :sick:) but once they pull the whole "It's not Adam... Oh wait, IT IS!!!" ending, you're just like.... :eyebrow:

Jessica Capshaw and Denise Richards give arguably the best performances. Cannot stand Marley Shelton's character and how naive she is. :nono:

''Born on the Fourth of July''

This was based on a true story & a terrific film that Tom Cruise won ''Best Actor'' for. It was of course depressing at time such as the scene where Cruise as ''Kovic'' was in with an escort crying. There was also a scene where he was in a wheelchair along Willem Dafoe's character & they were arguing about if they had killed anyone in the Vietnam War which they both got paralyzed in. Great cast.

Locke-it was strangely riveting...definitely not my kind of movie but it told a crazy story and definitely kept me guessing! Tom Hardy was excellent! I recommend it!

canflam 02-16-2019 05:21 PM

Interesting. Did not know of that 1.

Jen's Herald 02-17-2019 12:58 AM

mother! (2017) :eek: :hug: your local tree, a :kiss: for mother nature.

That's a film about a tree?

no, but the central character, Grace, is an allegory for Mother Nature, and what horrible things we are doing to her, as a collective species. :( everytime i watch it, i run out in my yard and hug a tree. :hug:

That film is wonderful and truly underappreciated. :high_five: Takes a lot of patience and attention to detail, though. :nod:


Watched THE TALL MAN starring Jessica Biel

Sadly, I wouldn't recommend this :( Biel's strong performance aside, the plot has so many twists and turns that you're just left feeling like a confused fool.

I was stupid enough to think that it was somehow a remake of 'Slenderman' or at least that the person in the dark clothing was legitimately scary... Yeah, nope. :eyebrow:

Instead of being a horror movie, it turned out to be some politically charged statement on how people treat their kids in society. I just felt conned. :irked: :yawn:

Would rate it :star: star and this is ONLY for Jessica's good performance.

Do not be fooled by this movie poster (as the genre is nothing akin to horror) -

I remember seeing "The Tall Man" and thinking much the same about it Gwen. :nod:

Watched a film I'd not seen before that I really loved starring Matthew Goode, called 'Burning Man", Brilliant film. :nod:


Crystal Clear 02-26-2019 07:34 AM

Millie :hug: Yes, sorry everyone but I hated THE TALL MAN :nod: :sleep: I felt duped into believing it was something else completely. I wouldn't have minded, except it was so boring.

Thank you! :D :blush:

Honestly, I think in terms of acting, that was Jennifer's best performance so far.

It's unfortunate that some people are too lazy to appreciate strong story-telling. :shrug: A lot is said in that movie without words. Javier Bardem and Jennifer have many silent discussions with just a look. :cool:


Has anyone else seen Tiger Bay (1959)? :look: It has a very powerful and almost uncomfortable love story between a 12 year old English girl and a Polish man who's on the run after unintentionally killing his girlfriend -


Their chemistry and on-screen connection is so strong.

Plus, the policeman is played by John Mills, who is the real-life father of the actress Hayley (who's the little girl).

Mi||iê Måë 02-26-2019 03:16 PM

Wow a young Haley Mills in that one! I know her more for being "Miss Bliss" in Saved by The Bell! :nod:

Addicted to Matthew Goode and his hotness so watching some of his older films that I loved. "Chasing Liberty" and "Leap Year", both cute! :)

:thumbs_up: She was so, so good in Tiger Bay. Up there in my top 3 favorite child performances ever.


Just saw this brilliant Japanese movie that won the Un Certain Regard Prize at CANNES, called Harmonium.

My main reaction when it ended - :eek:

It accomplished what The Tall Man couldn't - provided twists and turns without losing the point of the story. Used time jumps without seeming unrealistic. Balanced family drama with a mystery/thriller sub-genre.


Mi||iê Måë 02-28-2019 04:15 PM

Watched the new "Serenity" with Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway.

So not what you think it's going to be but interesting. Lags a little at the start but interesting watch.
