Baley Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 To be honest, I still like Fahrenheit 451 more than Brazil.

Baley Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 Fahrenheit is more of a fond memory, I suppose, I first saw it on TV a couple of years back, it probably kick-started my love for films.
kumquatq3 Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 V was better than average, but it was still nothing to ...remember....
Surreptishus Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 V raised international awareness of Bonfire/Guy Fawkes night. I can't wait until Snakes on a Plane.
Dark Moth Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 The Boys from Brazil Don't know if anyone here has seen that, but it involves a neo-nazi society trying to take over the world by producing hundreds of Hitler-clones and trying to raise them in similar circumstances (such as killing off all their fathers).
metadigital Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 It is a well-known classic. Please refrain from posting your opinions of other posters (as per the ToS) and merely post your film critique. Many thanks. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Gfted1 Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 The Boys from Brazil Don't know if anyone here has seen that, but it involves a neo-nazi society trying to take over the world by producing hundreds of Hitler-clones and trying to raise them in similar circumstances (such as killing off all their fathers). Ive not heard of that movie. Are we talking literally cloning Hitler? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
metadigital Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 Yes, it has Gregory Peck! OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

Hurlshort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Someone implied that I said Natalie Portman is hot. I definitely did not say that. I think she has the potential to be a great actress, but I have never found her all that attractive. Honestly she looks too young to me, but again, I've been watching her in films since she was a young girl. She's not ugly, but she's just not my type. Sorry Natalie.
metadigital Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 ... Nor is she a good actress. (Okay, she was okay in Leon/The Professional, but that was child actress territory, and very few children end up making the transition to the adult arena.)

213374U Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I thought she was okay in Closer, too. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
metadigital Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Haven't seen it. The film looks a big yawn. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
213374U Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Come think of it, I can't quite remember what it was about, so you're probably right... - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Hurlshort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Closer was pretty icky. My wife pretty much glared at me for even picking it out. There was a lot of sex talk, but it wasn't edgy, it was just uncomfortable. It's also about people who can't be faithful to their spouses. I don't really get that.

I don't really get that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's based on a successful play. But the screenplay changed some of the fundamental aspects of the play (can't remember all the details off hand): I just remember that at the time of adjudication, when I had all the facts to hand, this was not a worthwhile film. Infidelity is not patricularly new, noteworthy nor interesting. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

Diogo Ribeiro Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Yesterday I finally managed to see Munich. I enjoyed it very much; Spielberg's way of dealing with multiple themes other than the main motive of the film shine trough, and the solid performance helped a lot. Even situations which may be considered pass
