The Movies I Liked

[k-pad]

Dunno if i like it yet, but popping here just to warn you all that the .1 in Liger on Hotstar runs pretty hot.
Something off with the mix, at least in my rig, so please go easy in the opening scenes and adjust if you need to, if at all you are watching it on HS....

I enjoy watching Netflix movies like techno blade. In my spare time, I enjoy watching horror and historical films.

12 Angry men is a must watch. The tension in that room is gripping and real.

I love Quentin Tarantino. The way he directs the film is very different from any other film maker.

I love Quentin Tarantino. The way he directs the film is very different from any other film maker.

12 angry men has nothing to do with Tarantino. Tarantino cant even make a single film without a Mexican standoff or guns or his trademark film universe of characters overlapping in different films and other easter eggs.

The great Michaelangelo Antonioni film which is similar to this is a must watch.

Yes, but completely different takes on the idea....love them both!

Quentin Tarantino = Blood...lots of blood, gore & brutal violence in abundance, almost sadistic in nature (showing radio playing song during 'violence' in reservoir dogs, modified Bible verse in pulp fiction). Only liked reservoir dogs to some extent in bits and parts except violence. personal opinion ofcourse. His movies are hit though.

He will never make 'life is beautiful' type of movies thats for sure .
regards.

He will never make 'life is beautiful' type of movies thats for sure .

Why should he?

And art is all about typical style of the artist. He has his own, A section of audience likes him. That's it. People who like QT's style will watch his movies, others will watch what they like. simple.

 

[Hiten]

I never said he should. Just that both directors are italian and having different take on life and death.
regards.

Fun movie for your whole family. You don't get to see these kind of movies now. The Hitler scene by John Lovitz was hilarious. Nice movie to watch in weekend with your kids.

Ponniyin Selvan 1 (Mani Rathnam 2022) (8/10)

Great execution by Mani but the lengthy dialogue editing and continuity issues cuts off two points. Very good visual effects and arts choreography. Highly recommended.

Completely unfair take, in my opinion, brother. I seriously believe, his dailogues can by themselves earn him a space at the top.

I am not saying his films are not good. However they are not simple in narrative style. A little conceited if you are a fan of normal simple cinema.

Today I re-watched "Deep end of the ocean" after a long time. Maybe i had watched it in the theater back in late 90s and so although i knew the plot and remembered the ending, still got goose bumps seeing the character ark the Sam/Ben character goes through and the sibling relationship that is so subtly dealt with, made me clap after the film ended and title credits rolled. Now i dont remember one Tarantino movie that made me do it.

Fair enough, you are talking about subjectivity, there maybe folks which do the same for QT's movies, Don't you think?.
My limited point is, we can not compare forms and choices of different people and use it to discredit others completely.

I was moved by Stalker and my folks look at me like someone with issues.
