Must Watch Movies Recommended By Digitians

[Ethan_Hunt]

The International. I can't rate this movie for some reason, as I'm thoroughly confused it. I found it totally boring, to be honest. Yeah yeah, it should go into the "must not watch movies" thread, but like a_medico said, who visits it anyway.

(I dare not rate this movie)

Yes, at last I saw this movie from start to end. Last time when I got a glimpse of it was in class XI. It came in Star Gold (The channel was launched to show old movies only) and the song "Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kaya hai" was playing. I fell in love with it that time.

After that day, today I finally managed to watch it completely.


(sometimes I need some good dose of sadness)

Intelligent movie with very nice ending...

A Scanner Darkly - 9/10

Seriously, this is amazing! Similar themes explored in : Strange Days [1995], Trainspotting [1996], Requiem for a Dream [2000]. The best part is the anime. Beautifully done.

Special thanks : fieldgunner.

YW, bro...

Re"Anime"... actually the film is not anime...its not even fully animation...its a live action film which has been animated with a technique called "Rotoscoping"... but you're right, it does look amazing.

Another great rotoscoped movie is "Waking Life" by the same director...be warned though, Richard Linklaters works are not for everyone... very surreal/philosophical in nature... you have to be in the right frame of mind to enjoy it.

^ well, for now, I'm a fan of his! A Scanner Darkly and School of Rock are in my great films list. I'll check out Waking life too.

Cube 2: Hypercube - 7/10
Decent horror/thriller/sci-fi.

LXG : 6.5/10
Naseeruddin Shah wasted. Good for timepass, but not for fans of the genre(sci-fi).

[Psychosocial]

The Hangover - 8/10

[rhitwick]

Sympathy for Lady Vengeance 9.5/10

Oh, what a movie, W H A T a movie!!!!!!!!!

Awesome!!! I somehow liked it more than Oldboy. Oldboy was complex, its brutal!

At climax, everytime I thought this is the max, it proved me wrong.

Not at all recommended to weak hearted people.

@T, thanx. Next "Sympathy For Mr Vengeance"

THE APARTMENT - 9.5 / 10 : Definitely the best Rom-Com(mostly Rom) I've seen, moviewise!

[ssk_the_gr8]

Anyone watched kaminey. Heard that its different

[rhitwick]

Sympathy For Mr Vengeance 9/10

This is a very tough movie.
Well, in a movie there are good and bad and then there are you. You are supposed to take someone's side.
But this movie very much questions this method. What everyone is same bad. Commits same sins? whose side will u take?

Gr8 concept, very good acting.

Asian movies FTW!!!

SOUTH PARK- Not as good as The Simpsons, but funny movie in itself!! 7/10

[Krow]

^+1

Ghost in a Shell [1995] - 9/10
For all fans of Blade Runner, amazingly beautiful anime sci-fi classic. A must-watch!

The Black Dahlia 5/10

When I was a kid, may be in class V or VI, I read this story. It was a unsolved murder mystery.

Then I found there is a movie on the story too. Had high hopes but it not only disappointed me but bored me to death. Two hour long movie where the murder mystery is 2nd or 3rd important point of the movie.

[a_medico]

The last house on the left- Same old story. One twisted psycho murderer family etc etc. Has one gore rape scene which reminded me of the one in Irreversible.

The haunting in Connecticut - An average horror movie. Not bad but nothing great.


In the loop - A very weird British humor. Set in the offices of top govt officials in UK and US. This one is for the limited people who love British humor. I loved it.

[GameAddict]

Heard Kaminey is 'inspired' from Lock,Stock and....

The Ladykillers- 9/10, such a delightful 'criminal' comedy!

The Ladykillers- 9/10, such a delightful 'criminal' comedy!

Ladykillers is the only Tom Hanks movie I didn't like. Its boring

13 Tzameti - French-Georgian Movie
Snatch
10 Things I hate about you
Madagascar 1&2 for superb dialogues like this-
I like them. I liked them first.Before I even met them I liked them.

[Krow]

13 Tzameti is recommended to all by my frnd. It also happens to be Anurag Kashyap's fav movie!

[RCuber]

State Of Play 7.5/10 good drama, but it was a bit predictable.

[fieldgunner]

Sympathy for Lady Vengeance 9.5/10

Oh, what a movie, W H A T a movie!!!!!!!!!

Awesome!!!

With praise like that, I had to see it. Unfortunately...

Grossly overrated imho.
I'd give it a 5 or 6...and if i was simpoo, i'd call their parentzzz...

pros: well acted, visually well composed, also script and editing wise very reminiscent of Tarantino.

cons: ultimately, the plot goes nowhere. the much praised 'climax' is too long drawn out and betrays the potential of the storyline. One expects a clever twist or a profound emotional impact at the end but it never comes...story elements are loosely tied together, unanswered questions remain.

Overall...disappointing. Avoid it. The only good that came of this movie was that now I wont be wasting time on the other two in the trilogy...

Cheers.

[fieldgunner]

I'm surprised this one hasnt made it here yet...

The Hurt Locker 9/10 and I deduct a point only because nobody's perfect...and of course a subtle pro-US bias.

Other than that, imho, war movies dont come better than this. In my book, this is in the same league as Apocalypse Now and Platoon which I think are the best war movies ever made...
