The good movies thread

[Redflyingmonkey]

 

-Serenity (and the whole Firefly series, oh it makes me feel so warm n fuzzy. Best thing in the Verse ^^   )

 

 

Love Firefly. Completely get the whole warm and fuzzy feels. Here's something interesting I've seen about it recently ;

 

 

 

[Fluttershy47]

The Grand Budapest Hotel !!

A fantastic movie that uses great visual design and a great combination of seriousness with sillyness. Be sure to give it you're full attention so you don't miss anything XD

[KingGem619]

Thank you ima search some movies to watch.

[XFiles]

If you like cult films, check out Danger Diabolik.  Awesome Italian film based on an old comic book.  Directed by Mario Bava, film on a shoe string budget and is pretty amazing considering he only used a few hundred thousand.

Notice how the crazy started about "50 Shades of Grey"

 

I just saw something they say is way better:

Most thoughts online say it's funny, sexy, with more believable and lovable characters and it's basically, the original thing

I started believing 50 Shades must be a ripoff

The main character is named Grey too

 

It's also about two people who in the end find liberation in S&M instead of finding creepy, twisted and dark to fuck their lives up. Happy ending

I didn't read or saw 50 Shades but from what little I know I think this one's more believable and I agree with the good critics on the movie itself.

Plus it won a ton of awards

It's a freaky movie though... good, sexy and funny, but freaky XD

[Slath]

Oh, please. 50 shades of trash isn't about BDSM, it's about passing sexual abuse and sickness of mind as a fetish. Don't even bother.

 

I sadly don't have any really unknown film to advice. I barely know my classics. Just wanted to loathe a bit in my hate of that film.

Bai.

[Lady Dibella]

Lone Survivor

 

I'm sorry, but if that movie doesn't tug at your heartstrings then I'm not sure what to say. Acting was excellent and more importantly, the tribute to the actual men and their families was beautifully heartbreaking.

[Slath]

I just watched Hercules, the one made in 2014. I was waiting for disappointment, but it is actually a good film. At least, it felt like a really good one after "300: Rise of an empire"

[Jexsam]

Once Upon a Time in Shanghai

 

What at first looks like a transparent Bruce Lee homage (down to the haircut!) transforms into... well, not much else. The characters are relatively one-note but well-written in that note. What makes this movie "good" is the bleak, beautiful "color" palette, wonderfully entertaining fight scenes, and moments of surprising emotion from both the characters and you the viewer as events unfold.

 

Not a must-see, but well above background noise kung fu fodder, easily worth your time.

[germanicus]

So far: Matrix trilogy, LOTR trilogy, Mad Max 2 (watched 120 times), Star wars - Return of the Jedi.

[Guest Comrade DR. MAHUJ DIK]

What about trash movies do the count? they are so bad that  become a good random shit comedy. In case they count:

 

sharkado

sharknado 2

sharktopus

mega python vs gatoroid

 

 

[Guest Comrade DR. MAHUJ DIK]

Holy shit, I must see this movie

[Loveryus]

Not a movie, but an amazing trash series (the first episode sucks though): DANGER 5

[Cynical Misanthrope]

Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter is such a bad bad bad movie so it actually turns out pretty good. I mean, everything with the movie is incredible bad. But I bet it will still make you smile sometimes.

[germanicus]

I watched "The kingsmen" yesterday. brilliant, funny, entertaining movie with a lot of great effects and fighting.

[roflcopter117]

Forest Gump is another good one. It had a mix of almost everything; comedy, drama, world issues, and a love story on top of it all.

[Rorschach666]

recently watched prometheus, the "prequel" to alien.

....pretty good, was positively surprised.

[Caffeine Addict]

Some I think most already know

 

The Cornetto Trilogy

O brother, where art thou?

Fargo

 

This one sadly was totally underrated at the b.o.

Dredd (2012)

 

And some lesser known:

Severance

Smokin' Aces

Lucky # Slevin

 

 

 

[Antrox]

Interstellar; one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time.

[Chaos63]

Edge of Tomorrow is really damn good, and the combat is amazing. I hope this talk of a sequel doesn't end up being bullshit.

 

[Wicked Loveth]

The Fifth Element

Interview with the Vampire

Showgirls

The God Father I and II

Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love
